Wearable computer

A wearable computer, also known as a body-borne computer, is a computing device worn on the body. The definition of 'wearable computer' may be narrow or broad, extending to smartphones or even ordinary wristwatches. Wearables may be for general use, in which case they are just a particularly small example of mobile computing. Alternatively, they may be for specialized purposes such as fitness trackers. They may incorporate special sensors such as accelerometers, heart rate monitors, or on the more advanced side, electrocardiogram (ECG) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitors.

Laser peening

Laser peening (LP), or laser shock peening (LSP), is a surface engineering process used to impart beneficial residual stresses in materials. The deep, high-magnitude compressive residual stresses induced by laser peening increase the resistance of materials to surface-related failures, such as fatigue, fretting fatigue, and stress corrosion cracking. Laser shock peening can also be used to strengthen thin sections, harden surfaces, shape or straighten parts (known as laser peen forming), break up hard materials, compact powdered metals and for other applications where high-pressure, short duration shock waves offer desirable processing results.

Chrome hexavalent

vignette| Un composé de chrome hexavalent : l'oxyde de chrome(VI). Le chrome hexavalent, chrome(VI), Cr ou chrome 6 est le du chrome. Les produits qui en contiennent sont le plus souvent extrêmement toxiques. Presque tout le minerai de chrome est traité en passant par le stade « chrome hexavalent », en particulier le dichromate de sodium salé. Le chrome hexavalent est la clé de tous les matériaux fabriqués à partir de chrome.

Conformal coating

Conformal coating is a protective, breathable coating of thin polymeric film applied to printed circuit boards (PCB), so named because it conforms to the contours of the PCB. Conformal coatings are typically applied at 25–250 μm to the electronic circuitry and provide protection against moisture, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremities. More recently, conformal coatings are being used to reduce the formation of whiskers, and can also prevent current bleed between closely positioned components.
