D-Link Gigabit & Wireless Network Review

By Ian Bell October 22, 2004

“After getting my fingers back to normal from the wrath of the game pad I have to say the D-Link system is impressive. The wireless side of the network did away with my suspicions and offered an enormous amount of bandwidth for a small amount of money. The D-Link systems are often found for great prices on the web and in your Sunday paper. If your house is wire challenged then I highly recommend you take a look at D-Links offerings. I can’t imagine you wouldn’t be impressed; D-Link has a wireless winner. “

It sound slike Gruntville is pretty impressed with D-Links products. Jeff Fila, technical editor for Designtechnica has been less than impressed with a couple of D-Links wireless products including their D-Link DI-624 XtremeG wireless router. You can see our review here.

3D-printed ventilator valves help out Italian hospital rocked by coronavirus

What do you do when a crucial part of a lifesaving piece of medical equipment is in hopelessly short supply? You 3D print yourself a supply of them, of course. At least, that’s what happened at a hospital in Brescia, Italy, rocked by the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.

While ventilator breathing machines are not exactly in abundant supply, medical professionals found that the valves connecting the machine to the patient were even scarcer. This is due to the fact that they have to be regularly swapped out between patients, giving the component a very short life span.

3D printing has incredible potential for both research and home uses, but it has some limitations. The current technology takes some time to produce an object, and it produces hard structures only. But now, researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) have come up with a method for printing highly-precise miniature objects with different textures.

New Spirit 40: First Steps & Quick Run

Most people reading this will be familiar with four-legged robots such as the dog-inspired Spot robot developed by Boston Dynamics or Swiss robotics company ANYbotics’ ANYmal. But while there’s no doubt that such robots are supremely impressive, they’re also expensive -- which could limit their application in certain domains.
