Battery Free Communication: ambient backscatter

University Of Washington engineers have created a new wireless communication System that allows devices to interact with each other without relying on batteries or wires for power.

Using ambient backscatter devices can interact with each other and communicate with users without batteries they exchange information by pre-existing radio signals from TV and cellular transmissions.

Building REST API in Python using FastAPI

Image
Building REST API in Python using FastAPI In this article I will discuss some basics about RESTful webservice and developing a web service in Python using Fast API framework. First let’s see what a RESTful service is. REST stands for Representational state transfer. It is a standard for developing interactive applications that use web services. We have multiple architectural guiding constraints in developing RESTful services. For detailed information on RESTful services, I recommend to below resources: ·         https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer ·         https://flask-restful.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ (Flask is another Python framework for building web services) What is FastAPI? FastAPI is a modern high-performance web framework that with Python3.6+ based on standard Python. While there are many articles out there mentioning about performance of FastAPI, the FastAPI documentation itself has explained very well about the benchmarks and speed wi

Connect Smartly to Your Baby With Owlet Sock

Image
Owlet, a startup based out of Utah has introduced the smart sock for new born babies. This smart sock uses a hospital technology Pulse oximetry, which is test to measure the oxygen level of blood.The smart sock owlet will alert if baby stops breathing. Owlet is wireless and gentle. This sends signals to independent base station. The independent base station has both green and red light indicator. The green light keeps glowing for normal heart rate, when heart rate or oxygen appear to be out of normal range the independent base stations glows up red light. And now to monitor the numerical values you need an apple device. The owlet application works on any device running iOS 8 or higher. Using the application you can monitor heart rate and oxygen level. When either heart rate or oxygen level is out of normal range then owlet alarms from base station and phone.
