  2. Smartdust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartdust

    Smartdust [1] is a system of many tiny microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) such as sensors, robots, or other devices, that can detect, for example, light, temperature, vibration, magnetism, or chemicals.

  3. Mechanically powered flashlight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_powered...

    The magnet induces an electric current as it spins around the red copper winding, seen on the lower right. The current from the copper winding flows through the filament of an incandescent light bulb (not shown), giving off light. An L-shaped spring returns the handle to its original position after each engagement.

  4. Fingerprint powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fingerprint_powder

    A magnetic applicator is used in place of a fingerprint brush composed of fibers. [3] The magnet within the applicator attracts the magnetic powder, forming a cluster of powder that can be gently moved across the fingerprint. Once complete, the magnet within the applicator is retracted and the magnetic powder falls off. [3]

  8. Static cling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_cling

    An additional risk is the (small) electrical conductivity of dust which, given enough accumulation of dust, can cause critical damage to the device's internal components. Dust accumulation grows exponentially, since the accumulated dust creates new static surfaces and physical blockades for new dust to cling to.

  9. Iron powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_powder

    Iron powder has several uses; for example production of magnetic alloys and certain types of steels. [1] Iron powder is formed as a whole from several other iron particles. The particle sizes vary anywhere from 20-200 μm. The iron properties differ depending on the production method and history of a specific iron powder.
