Automotive Lighting; a Vital Component in Automotive Vehicles, Playing an Important Role in Automotive Safety

 

Automotive Lighting

Automotive lighting plays an important role in automotive vehicles to illuminate the vehicle path, thus allowing the driver to get clear visibility of the road and playing an important role in automotive safety. Lighting system makes the vehicle more visible, especially in low light conditions. Moreover, the lighting system helps pedestrians and other vehicles on the road to detect the vehicle’s position, size, and direction of movement. Furthermore, lighting adds to the aesthetics of the vehicle, both externally and internally.

Automotive Lighting system consists of lighting and signaling devices mounted on the front, rear, sides, and in some cases on the top of a motor vehicle. Headlight allows the driver to see at night. The turn indicators inform other drivers when you want to turn and the tail-light improves visibility for vehicles behind you on the road. There are two types of headlights, such as high beam and low beam. An automotive lighting system allows the driver to see the roadway in the dark, while also signaling to other motorists that a car is present.

Halogen lights are the popular type of light on the roads today. They use the combination of gases commonly nitrogen and argon, and tungsten filament in a glass tube. After the filament is heated, light is produced. LEDs appeal to automakers and consumers for a number of reasons, such as they are brighter than halogen headlights and often cast a wider pattern, plus they last longer, use less energy and have a much whiter color than halogens. LEDs use semiconductors to transmit energy-emitting photons that create light.

HID headlights are premium headlights used for their brightness and ability to last a long time. They are ideal for driving at night. HID headlights produce more light and consume less energy. This in turn helps the car, truck, and/or SUV conserve more fuel. Marelli Automotive Lighting (Germany) designs, develops and integrates a wide and complete range of top-notch solutions for external automotive lighting systems.

Micro-mobility Charging Infrastructure: Enabling the Growth of Shared Electric Transportation

Image
Micro-mobility Charging Infrastructure Micro-mobility modes like e-scooters and e-bikes are growing rapidly as a means for short urban trips. However, a critical factor in expanding their use is developing robust charging infrastructure to power these shared electric vehicles. An optimized charging network can help micro-mobility services scale up reliably while reducing their environmental impact. Charging Operations Managing large fleets of chargers and ensuring electric Micro-Mobility Charging Infrastructure  power requires efficient charging logistics. Companies operate networks of dedicated chargers that scooters and bikes can be docked at for a quicker recharge compared to slower at-home charging. Charging stations are usually located near high traffic areas like transit stations or parks to maximize accessibility and convenience for riders. Chargers may be owned by operators or deployed through partnerships with property owners at locations like parking garages, offices an

The Innovative Distributed Ledger Technology - Hashgraph

Image
Hashgraph What is Hashgraph? A hashgraph is a data structure used in distributed ledger technology that facilitates fast and fair transactions without the need for mining or blocks. It is an alternative to blockchain that aims to improve performance, fairness and security through its unique gossip-about-gossip protocol. Rather than recording transactions in a linear blockchain, hashgraph transactions are ordered in a directed acyclic graph (DAG) structure. When a transaction is received by a node, it is gossiped to other nodes to be added to their local ledger with a digital signature as proof. Nodes then gossip among each other to achieve consensus on the transaction order without the energy-intensive mining process used in blockchains. The gossip-about-gossip protocol At the heart of hashgraph is its gossip-about-gossip protocol which allows nodes to communicate efficiently and achieve immediate consensus. When a transaction occurs, it is broadcast from the node that created it

Salt Substitutes: Healthier Alternatives for your Daily Diet

Image
Salt Substitutes Salt is a necessary part of our diet and helps regulate fluid balance in the body. However, most people consume far more salt than the recommended daily limit of 2300mg. Excess salt intake is linked to high blood pressure and increased risk of heart disease and stroke. If you want to cut back on salt but still enjoy flavorful foods, salt substitutes provide a healthier alternative. What are Salt Substitutes? Salt substitutes aim to mimic the taste of salt without the negative health effects of sodium. They contain little to no sodium but instead use potassium chloride or herbal extracts to enhance flavor. Some common salt substitute ingredients include: - Potassium chloride: The primary ingredient in many salt substitutes. It tastes similar to table salt but contains potassium instead of sodium. Potassium helps counteract the effect of sodium and lower blood pressure. - Herbs and spices: Various herbs, spices and seasonings are used to round out the flavor profi
