Many relays use an electromagnet to mechanically operate a switch, but other operating principles are also used, such as solid-state relays. Relays are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal (with complete electrical isolation between control and controlled circuits), or where several circuits must be controlled by one signal. The first relays were used in long distance telegraph circuits as amplifiers: they repeated the signal coming in from one circuit and re-transmitted it on another circuit. Relays were used extensively in telephone exchanges and early computers to perform logical operations.</span></span></div> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;

Put on these goggles, go nowhere, and be transported anywhere. Imagine yourself, just lounging on your sofa, having an absurdly boring day. But in the very near future, you might just be surfing through the streets of Venice or even King’s Landing, whilst sitting on the aforementioned couch and popping those extremely normal looking goggles on your eyes. It’s the same mentality that’s peddled by drugs, alcohol, sex, and art — throw off the shackles of the mundane through a metaphysical transportation to an altered state. Born of technology, virtual reality at its core is an organic experience. Its man meets machine, but what happens is strictly within the mind.</span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Sounds simple? It is.</span></div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The definition of Virtual Reality is simple. It’s a computer generated, 3 Dimensional environment which can be explored and interacted with by a person. Although Virtual Reality is an old dream, it has been hustled onto the main stage only recently, with Facebook’s reported acquisition of the Oculus Rift for a mind boggling $2 billion. Oculus Rift is a head mounted virtual reality display, which is capable of reproducing accurate and detailed terrain as well as a very high definition gaming experience to the user. There’s also been an ‘exhibit’ which has let couples swap bodies using Oculus Rift.</span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shapetype id="_x0000_t75" coordsize="21600,21600" o:spt="75" o:preferrelative="t" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" filled="f" stroked="f"> <v:stroke joinstyle="miter"/> <v:formulas> <v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"/> </v:formulas> <v:path o:extrusionok="f" gradientshapeok="t" o:connecttype="rect"/> <o:lock v:ext="edit" aspectratio="t"/> </v:shapetype><v:shape id="Picture_x0020_1" o:spid="_x0000_i1033" type="#_x0000_t75" style='width:468pt;height:280.5pt;visibility:visible;mso-wrap-style:square'> <v:imagedata src="file:///C:\Users\PRANAV~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image001.jpg" o:title=""/> </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]--></div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Along with Oculus Rift, Microsoft’s HoloLens created quite a buzz at the turn of 2015. HoloLens promises to bring Skype, TV and games within the realms of Virtual Reality where you can add a layer of computer-generated information to your vision.Microsoft HoloLens is a smart glasses unit that is a cordless, self-contained Windows 10 computer. It uses advanced sensors, a high-definition 3D optical head-mounted display, and spatial sound to allow for augmented reality applications.</span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjejrhVbVF6mx2ntwFEg4e7E1jSWuKgU1DWmiUQlRw07tkMrcgvR-XncOveJLATBLjT5wb6Bh2hGPPY6tRWmIo8ppHY8pjtaWrFEwSORftT1NDn7quMWYQ87G_imQfAt13OiKwUEckJuwJ7/s1600/ellisoculus_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjejrhVbVF6mx2ntwFEg4e7E1jSWuKgU1DWmiUQlRw07tkMrcgvR-XncOveJLATBLjT5wb6Bh2hGPPY6tRWmIo8ppHY8pjtaWrFEwSORftT1NDn7quMWYQ87G_imQfAt13OiKwUEckJuwJ7/s640/ellisoculus_1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /> <!--[endif]--></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">HoloLens and Oculus Rift cater to the need of a wide range of audience and can have a great horizon of application in our day to day life.</span></div> </div> <h2 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="color: #b45f06;"> VR in Engineering.</span></h2> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMjq6dFC1yh4SH3t_BsL5o2btk2_2_dw52NXpWi6StywkRNjR-_QffWnY3QRLWleb0Kf47fZF-kS0_9QNaXEOYXvUpEY_tgBrr6ZoE50tbv8odYVBljHK0ZcuZ05ty3wxK3QA7y2p1YJyX/s1600/Virtual-Engineering-EMO-2013-exploded-view-Formula1-RoomGlasses-3D-Showroom-Immersive-Visualization-Video-Glasses-Goggles-Virtual-Reality-Immersion-ZEISS-Cinemizer-mobile-portable-CAVE-CAD-planning-presentati.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMjq6dFC1yh4SH3t_BsL5o2btk2_2_dw52NXpWi6StywkRNjR-_QffWnY3QRLWleb0Kf47fZF-kS0_9QNaXEOYXvUpEY_tgBrr6ZoE50tbv8odYVBljHK0ZcuZ05ty3wxK3QA7y2p1YJyX/s640/Virtual-Engineering-EMO-2013-exploded-view-Formula1-RoomGlasses-3D-Showroom-Immersive-Visualization-Video-Glasses-Goggles-Virtual-Reality-Immersion-ZEISS-Cinemizer-mobile-portable-CAVE-CAD-planning-presentati.png" width="640" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw2jpKr070oU3jtSPgyhVzXy2uaB-oRqXl-J6V126mSIlZ_YQVnIL_c37MEcqQShRCkqgbkzNG_vWbXWcfq3YU2WaTtWbusCYWADgkQbFQmgMby1Tt-bHHYh6p9U86o109C4ej6H2459oE/s1600/ar1_04.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw2jpKr070oU3jtSPgyhVzXy2uaB-oRqXl-J6V126mSIlZ_YQVnIL_c37MEcqQShRCkqgbkzNG_vWbXWcfq3YU2WaTtWbusCYWADgkQbFQmgMby1Tt-bHHYh6p9U86o109C4ej6H2459oE/s640/ar1_04.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /> <!--[endif]--></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8852831625634618508" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8852831625634618508" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8852831625634618508" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span></a></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Virtual reality engineering includes the use of 3D modelling tools and visualization techniques as part of the design process.

Virtual Reality is used in the field of robotic surgery where it has proven to be very successful. It also has a major application for the treatment of people suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. A headpiece not unlike the Oculus Rift is mounted on the head of a man suffering from PTSD and the clipping of the source of his stress is displayed. The rationale behind this is that exposing someone to the source of their condition combined with relaxation skills will enable them cope and adapt.</span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Surgery Simulation is a type of Virtual Reality which is used to train surgeons in a range of surgical procedures, e.g. knee arthroscopy but without any risks. The major advantages of this system are that the surgeon can be taught new and potentially dangerous techniques in an environment where they are able to make mistakes and learn from these.</span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> </div> <h1 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> VR in Sports</span></h1> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shape id="Picture_x0020_6" o:spid="_x0000_i1027" type="#_x0000_t75" style='width:468pt; height:205.5pt;visibility:visible;mso-wrap-style:square'> <v:imagedata src="file:///C:\Users\PRANAV~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image012.jpg" o:title=""/> </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><!--[endif]--></span></div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Virtual reality is used as a training aid in many sports such as golf, athletics, skiing, cycling etc. It is used as an aid to measuring athletic performance as well as analyzing technique and is designed to help with both of these.

font-size: large;">Arduino consists of both a physical programmable circuit board (often referred to as a microcontroller) and a piece of software, or IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that runs on your computer, </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;

font-size: large;"> platform has become quite popular with people just starting out with electronics, and for good reason. </span></div> <br /> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Unlike most previous programmable circuit boards, the Arduino does not need a separate piece of hardware (called a programmer) in order to load new code onto the board – you can simply use a USB cable.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Additionally, the<a href="http://www.electronicsrevealed.com/2016/02/introduction-to-arduino-revealed.html" target="_blank"> Arduino</a> IDE uses a simplified version of C++, making it easier to learn to program. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally, <a href="https://www.arduino.cc/" target="_blank">Arduino</a> provides a standard form factor that breaks out the functions of the micro-controller into a more accessible package.</span></div> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: large;">The <a href="https://www.arduino.cc/" target="_blank">Arduino </a>hardware and software was designed for artists, designers, hobbyists, hackers, newbies, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments. </span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Arduino can interact with buttons, LEDs, motors, speakers, GPS units, cameras, the internet, and even your smart-phone or your TV! </span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This flexibility combined with the fact that the Arduino software is free, the hardware boards are pretty cheap, </span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">and both the software and hardware are easy to learn has led to a large community of users who have contributed code and released instructions for a huge variety of Arduino-based projects.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Basically, if there is something that is in any way controlled by electricity, the Arduino can interface with it in some manner.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> And even if it is not controlled by electricity, you can probably still use things which are (like motors and electromagnets), to interface with it.</span><br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

The Arduino UNO can be powered from a USB cable coming from your computer or a wall power supply (like this) that is terminated in a barrel jack. In the picture above the USB connection is labeled (1) and the barrel jack is labeled (2).</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The USB connection is also how you will load code onto your <a href="https://www.arduino.cc/" target="_blank">Arduino</a> board. More on how to program with Arduino can be found in our Installing and Programming <a href="http://www.electronicsrevealed.com/2016/02/introduction-to-arduino-revealed.html" target="_blank">Arduino tutorial</a>.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="color: #e69138; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">NOTE: Do NOT use a power supply greater than 20 Volts as you will overpower (and thereby destroy) your Arduino. The recommended voltage for most Arduino models is between 6 and 12 Volts.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Pins (5V, 3.3V, GND, Analog, Digital, PWM, AREF)</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The pins on your <a href="http://www.electronicsrevealed.com/2016/02/introduction-to-arduino-revealed.html" target="_blank">Arduino</a> are the places where you connect wires to construct a circuit (probably in conjuction with a breadboard and some wire. They usually have black plastic ‘headers’ that allow you to just plug a wire right into the board. The<a href="http://www.electronicsrevealed.com/2016/02/introduction-to-arduino-revealed.html" target="_blank"> Arduino </a>has several different kinds of pins, each of which is labeled on the board and used for different functions.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">GND (3):</span></i></b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> Short for ‘Ground’. There are several GND pins on the Arduino, any of which can be used to ground your circuit.</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">5V (4) & 3.3V (5):</span></i></b> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As you might guess, the 5V pin supplies 5 volts of power, and the 3.3V pin supplies 3.3 volts of power. Most of the simple components used with the Arduino run happily off of 5 or 3.3 volts.</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">Analog (6):</span></i></b> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The area of pins under the ‘Analog In’ label (A0 through A5 on the UNO) are Analog In pins. These pins can read the signal from an analog sensor (like a temperature sensor) and convert it into a digital value that we can read.</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">Digital (7):</span></i></b> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Across from the analog pins are the digital pins (0 through 13 on the UNO). These pins can be used for both digital input (like telling if a button is pushed) and digital output (like powering an LED).</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">PWM (8):</span></i></b> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">You may have noticed the tilde (~) next to some of the digital pins (3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11 on the UNO). These pins act as normal digital pins, but can also be used for something called Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM). We have a tutorial on PWM, but for now, think of these pins as being able to simulate analog output (like fading an LED in and out).</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">AREF (9):</span></i></b> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Stands for Analog Reference. Most of the time you can leave this pin alone. It is sometimes used to set an external reference voltage (between 0 and 5 Volts) as the upper limit for the analog input pins.</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Reset Button</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Just like the original Nintendo, the Arduino has a reset button (10). Pushing it will temporarily connect the reset pin to ground and restart any code that is loaded on the Arduino. This can be very useful if your code doesn’t repeat, but you want to test it multiple times. Unlike the original Nintendo however, blowing on the Arduino doesn’t usually fix any problems.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Power LED Indicator</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Just beneath and to the right of the word “UNO” on your circuit board, there’s a tiny LED next to the word ‘ON’ (11). This LED should light up whenever you plug your Arduino into a power source. If this light doesn’t turn on, there’s a good chance something is wrong. Time to re-check your circuit!</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">TX RX LEDs</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">TX is short for transmit, RX is short for receive. These markings appear quite a bit in electronics to indicate the pins responsible for serial communication. In our case, there are two places on the Arduino UNO where TX and RX appear – once by digital pins 0 and 1, and a second time next to the TX and RX indicator LEDs (12). These LEDs will give us some nice visual indications whenever our Arduino is receiving or transmitting data (like when we’re loading a new program onto the board).</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Main IC</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The black thing with all the metal legs is an IC, or Integrated Circuit (13). Think of it as the brains of our Arduino. The main IC on the Arduino is slightly different from board type to board type, but is usually from the ATmega line of IC’s from the ATMEL company. This can be important, as you may need to know the IC type (along with your board type) before loading up a new program from the Arduino software. This information can usually be found in writing on the top side of the IC. If you want to know more about the difference between various IC’s, reading the datasheets is often a good idea.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Voltage Regulator</span></i></b><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The voltage regulator (14) is not actually something you can (or should) interact with on the Arduino. But it is potentially useful to know that it is there and what it’s for. The voltage regulator does exactly what it says – it controls the amount of voltage that is let into the Arduino board. Think of it as a kind of gatekeeper; it will turn away an extra voltage that might harm the circuit. Of course, it has its limits, so don’t hook up your Arduino to anything greater than 20 volts.</span><br /> <br /> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> <span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: x-large;">IDE</span></h2> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Arduino Integrated Development Environment - or Arduino Software (IDE) - contains a text editor for writing code, a message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions and a series of menus. </span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It connects to the Arduino and Genuino hardware to upload programs and communicate with them.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Programs written using Arduino Software (IDE) are called sketches.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;

font-size: large;">Please note that although the Arduino plugs into your computer, it is not a true USB device. The board has a special chip that allows it to show up on your computer as a virtual serial port when it is plugged into a USB port. This is why it is important to plug the board in. When the board is not plugged in, the virtual serial port that the Arduino operates upon will not be present (since all of the information about it lives on the Arduino board).</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is also good to know that every single Arduino has a unique virtual serial port address.
