Solar panels have found their place in our journey toward sustainable energy sources, offering a clean, eco-friendly alternative to traditional power generation methods. But let’s face it, for those of us not immersed in the world of solar energy, the intricate workings of solar panel voltage production, also known as solar panel output voltage, can feel like a perplexing puzzle.
Solar panels rely on solar cells to do their magic, converting sunlight into electricity. These cells come alive when they soak in sunlight, generating what we call solar panel voltage. This…
Rob Kräwinkel on Optimization in Solar-Powered Race Cars
Rob Kräwinkel, the lead electrical engineer of Solar Team Twente 2019, talks about how he optimized solar-powered race cars. When asked what solar-powered vehicle race he wouldn’t miss, he answered the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge. It takes place on a 3,000-km route all the way from Darwin to Adelaide, Australia and involves racing in the quickest time possible while only relying on sunlight for power.
According to him, the key to winning this is for a race car to generate the greatest amount of solar energy possible. After that, it should convert …

Dr. Dominic Binks on Sound-Recognition AI Software
Dr. Dominic Binks is the Vice-President of Technology at Audio Analytic. He has recently talked about his decision to add sound-recognition AI software to the Arm Cortex-M0+ processor. Binks explained that the ai3 software relies on AuditoryNET, which is a deep neural network made for modeling the temporal and acoustic features of sounds. He said that they wanted to grant a sense of hearing to all machines, even the tiniest ones with constrained processing and power.
For the M0+ implementation, the ai3 software called for 181kB across the ROM and RAM. This is …
