Why Touch Screens Only Respond to Fingers: The Science Behind the Sensitivity

  I. Introduction Touch screen technology enables direct interaction with devices through touch. Using either capacitive or resistive methods, these screens detect user input, translating it into commands. Widely used in smartphones, tablets, and kiosks, touch screens offer intuitive navigation, eliminating the need for physical buttons and enhancing user experience across various applications. Understanding how touch screens work is crucial for users and developers alike. It enhances user experience by ensuring effective interaction, informs choices in device selection, and guides troubleshooting. For developers, knowledge of touch technology is vital for creating intuitive applications and improving interface design, ultimately leading to greater user satisfaction. This blog aims to explore why touch screens predominantly respond to fingers, delving into the science behind touch sensitivity. By examining the principles of capacitive and resistive technology, we will uncover the

Top 5 technical skills that will be on demand in 2021

If we can’t see the world behind the mountain does not mean it ends up there probably we don’t put effort to climb up and visualize the existence. In extension to this we may say there is no job scarcity in India but the skill gap is. Companies are eying on the professionals who suits best to bridge their requirement. 

Here are 10 top technical skills in-demand we should focus on.

1.    Artificial Intelligence(AI)

2.  Cloud computing

3.   Data Analytics

4.   Internet of Things (IOT)

5.  Virtual Reality (VR)

1.    Artificial Intelligence(AI):

As per the survey of the world economic forum, artificial intelligence will create 133 million new jobs by 2025. It also is expected that the machines will do more work than the humans by 2025.


 Artificial intelligence refers to the way a machine can easily mimic humans and execute tasks precisely even if it’s more complex. AI is continuously evolving as a most suitable aid for many different industries. The expectations in future from AI are self-driving cars, financial services, security services etc.

2.      Cloud computing:

The business goals now days are in different dimensions. They are evolving as more innovative and enhanced customer satisfaction. Because of its cost effectiveness and wide applications people are eyeing on cloud computing as powerful tool to achieve their business goal. The growing rate of cloud computing in 2020 is 65% in comparison to 2018.


Cloud computing is the way to provide computing services to the function which need it. The computing service may include storing huge database, networking multiple functions of an organization, for data analysis, machine learning etc. With the help of cloud computing company like IBM manage infrastructure and make the environment more efficient.

Below are some of the benefits of cloud computing:

  • Minimizes the capital expense of the organization
  • Flexibility in business,
  • Lot of tasks are accomplished with just few mouse clicks
  • Security in terms of data protection
  • Performance
  • Reliability

3.      Data Analytics:

As it is said if you fail to plan means you are planning to fail, and the plan in every organization is established on the basis of the preexisting records and data. Better way of analyzing the data can bring light to the parameters that may hurt the health of your business. Data analysis would help in understanding the demographics of customers and in reflection improve customer service and help in making business decisions efficiently.


4.      Internet of Things (IOT):

India is growing rapidly as IoT hub though we have started Iot Journey much later than the developed countries. According to a report issued by Deloitte, the IoT units in India are expected to reach by 2 billion units at a rate of 32X by early 2021.



Internet of Things is a technology that creates a global network of devices that can communicate and exchange data with each other through the Internet. Internet of Things can create information about the connected devices, analyze it and make decisions smartly; for simple understanding we may call Internet of Things as smart Internet. Security cameras, sensors, actuators, vehicles, buildings, software etc are the examples of things that can exchange data among each other with the help of IoT.


5.     Virtual Reality (VR):

Virtual Reality is the technology with the linear projected potential growth over the years and is expected to multiply its growth to approximately 20 folds by 2025 as per the forecast issued by IDC.


Virtual Reality (VR) is an environment generated on the scenes and objects that appear to be real, making the user feel they are immersed in their surroundings. This environment is perceived through a device called as VR headset or helmet. It helps us in learning many things like a student doing space research, learning underwater activities, surgery in medical science etc. Also we immerse in video games as if we are in a leading character among all virtual characters. This also helps in maximizing our performance in any activity or the learning ability.

 It is obvious to get confused with the VR & AR technology where in AR, our own environment becomes the framework within which objects, images or similar are placed. For example we can choose to buy the furniture’s for living room from a ecommerce site visualizing one by one by sitting in  our leaving room with the help of an AR device.

Reviving the past: Mercury arc rectifiers in modern engineering

  I.                     Introduction: An electrical device that transforms alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) is called a mercury arc rectifier. It works on the basis of the mercury arc valve principle, which depends on how mercury vapor responds to an electric field. In 1902, Peter Cooper Hewitt created the mercury arc rectifier, which was used to transmit high-voltage direct current power as well as to power motors, transmissions, electric cars, and trains. Before the invention of semiconductor rectifiers like diodes and thyristors, this was the first way of high power rectification. Mercury-arc rectifiers were almost completely replaced by semiconductor rectifiers after their creation because of their lower price, improved dependability, easier maintenance, and decreased risk to the environment. Researchers have brought back this old technology. II.                   The rise of mercury arc Rectifiers: Here's how obsolete technologies like mercury arc

Pressure measurement, Pressure transducers, Lecture Note on Pressure transducers

Introduction: The pressure exerted by a static fluid depends only upon the depth of the fluid, the density of the fluid, and the acceleration of gravity. Mathematically,  P = ρgh Static and Dynamic Pressure:   Static pressure: At any point in the fluid, the small chunk of fluid experiences the same pressure from all direction and this pressure is called static pressure. Dynamic pressure: In a fluid flow the stagnation of flow results in conversion of kinetic energy into an additional pressure on the surface which is called as dynamic pressure. When a flat plate is kept against the flow, the fluid is stagnated and creates an additional pressure on the plate which is called as stagnated pressure. Stagnated pressure= Dynamic pressure + static pressure Dynamic pressure= Stagnated pressure - static pressure Pressure measuring transducer:  Often pressure is measured by transducing its effect to a deflection through use of a pressurized area and either a gravitational or elastic
