LiDAR technology has become a key tool in fields ranging from autonomous vehicles to environmental mapping. Its ability to create precise 3D models of surroundings makes it invaluable for many applications. This post explains how LiDAR works, explores its main types, and highlights seven popular LiDAR models favored by professionals. LiDAR sensor capturing 3D spatial data How LiDAR Works LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It uses laser light pulses to measure dista

Surface Mount Technology (SMT) lines are the backbone of modern electronics manufacturing. Yet, many SMT lines face challenges when undergoing ECMS (Electronics Contract Manufacturing Services) audits. These audits ensure that manufacturers meet strict quality, process, and documentation standards. Failing an ECMS audit can lead to costly delays, lost contracts, and damage to reputation. Looking to setup your SMT line? Contact gulshan@xelec.in   This post explores the most co

Before you can shoot a drone down, you have to find it. Radar is not the only way to detect these airborne devices. Rogue drones pose increasing risks in sensitive areas, from airports to government facilities. Detecting them early and accurately is critical. One powerful method gaining ground is RF fingerprinting , which listens to the unique radio signals drones emit. This post explores how RF detection works, the challenges it faces, and how modern tools like Software Defi

Everyone admires LiDAR’s detailed 3D point clouds for autonomous vehicles and robotics. These clouds create vivid maps of the environment, helping machines "see" in three dimensions. Yet, when dense fog or smoke fills the air, LiDAR’s vision fades into uselessness. In contrast, radar systems continue to perform reliably in these challenging conditions. Why does this happen? The answer lies in the fundamental differences between the wavelengths LiDAR and radar use, and how the

Arduino UNO R3 is a favorite among makers and hobbyists for its versatility and ease of use. At its heart lie two powerful microcontrollers: the ATMEGA16U2 and the ATMEGA328P. These chips make it possible to build a wide range of projects, from simple gadgets to complex systems. This post explores how you can harness the capabilities of these components to create exciting DIY projects that bring your ideas to life.
