Understanding Neural Networks
The Experimenter's Guide
Ebook for Kindle & Nook $2.99
Understanding Neural Networks Understanding Neural Networks is an introductory text to artificial neural networks. The book begins with examining biological neurons in the human brain and defining their real world mathematical and electronic equivalent.

Building upon this foundation the book contains hardware and software projects that illustrate neural networks. Hardware projects include a op-amp neuron that tracks a light source, speech recognition system, and machine vision system. Software projects include a Preceptron program and Back-Propagation networks. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to neural networks.

Alpha Particle Spark Detector Demonstrate the Detection of Radioactive Particles

Alpha Particle Spark Detector Images Alpha Particle Spark Detector allows one to see the detection of alpha particles. Demonstrates the detection of radioactive particles.

A sheet of paper can demonstrate the shielding of radioactive particles by an absorber. Perfect for classroom demonstration.

This alpha particle spark detector utilizes an 8,000 volt negatively-charged electrode and thin copper wires connected to a ground that are strung through the air approximately 0.1" above the electrode. When an alpha particle passes in-between the wire and the electrode it ionizes the air between. The high voltage potential between the wires and the electroide causes an avalanche effect that we see as an electrical disharge between the wires and the electrode.

New Robotic Base

Alpha Particle Spark DetectorNew Base, simpler construction.

Robot base uses standard size servo motor.

Servo motor base can rotate platform in CW and CCW direction. Degrees of rotation is to the extend of the servo motor used.

Platform can support 50 lbs or more. Precision bearing supports and keeps weight off the servo motor bearing.
