engineer: A person who uses science and mathematics to solve problems. As a verb, “engineering” means to design a device, material, or process that solves some problem or unmet need.
environment: The sum of everything that exists around an organism, or the processes and conditions produced by those things. Environment can also refer to the weather or ecosystem in which an animal lives, or the temperature and humidity (or the placement of objects near the item of interest).
filter: (n.) Something that, based on size or other characteristics, can pass through some substances but not others. (v.) The process of sorting some things out on the basis of their properties, such as size, density, or charge. (in physics) a screen, plate, or layer of material that absorbs light or other radiation, or selectively prevents the transmission of some of its components.
force: external influences that can change the motion of objects, move objects closer together, or cause motions or stresses in stationary objects.
intestines: An informal term for the gastrointestinal tract, especially the intestines.
hybrid: An organism produced by the interbreeding of two animals or plants of different species, or genetically distinct populations within a species. Such offspring often carry genes inherited from each parent, resulting in combinations of traits unknown in previous generations. The term is also used to refer to an object, process, or idea that combines two or more things.
LED: (Abbreviation for light-emitting diode) As the name suggests, an electronic component that emits light when electricity is passed through it. LEDs are very energy efficient and often very bright. Nowadays, household and commercial lamps are used to replace traditional lighting.
lens: (in optics) a curved section of transparent material (such as glass) that bends incoming light to focus it on a specific point in space. Or something that can mimic some of the light-bending attributes of a physical lens, such as gravity.
machine learning: A method in computer science that allows computers to learn from examples and experience. Machine learning is the basis of several forms of artificial intelligence (AI). For example, a machine learning system might compare X-rays of lung tissue from cancer patients and compare whether and how long the patient survived after receiving a particular treatment. In the future, its AI systems may be able to examine new patients' lung scans to predict how well they will respond to treatment.
magnet: A substance, usually containing iron, whose atoms are arranged in such a way that they attract certain metals.
magnetic field: An area of ​​influence created by the movement of a certain substance, or electric charge, called a magnet.
materials scientist: Researchers who study how the atomic and molecular structure of a material is related to its overall properties. Materials scientists can design new materials or analyze existing materials. Analyzing a material's overall properties, such as density, strength, and melting point, helps engineers and other researchers select the best material for new applications.
model: A simulation (usually using a computer) of a real-world event developed to predict one or more possible outcomes. Or an individual whose purpose is to show how something works or looks like to another person.
morph: Abbreviation for metamorphosis, which means changing or transforming from one form to another (such as from a caterpillar to a butterfly) or from one form to another. (In non-living systems) It refers to some thing, policy, or activity that has undergone change and become something that looks or appears to be new and different.
optics:(adjective. optics) has to do with sight, or what can be seen. (In physics) The field of study concerned with the control and movement of light.
photon: A particle that represents the smallest possible amount of light or other type of electromagnetic radiation.
pixel: Abbreviation for picture element. A small area of ​​illumination on a computer screen, or a dot on a printed page. Usually arranged in an array to form a digital image. A photo is made up of thousands of pixels, each of which has a different brightness and color, and each one too small to be seen without enlarging the image.
processor: (In computing) Also called the central processing unit or CPU, the part of a computer that performs numerical calculations and other types of data manipulation. It can also be a type of software or programming that converts other programs into a format that can be understood by the computer running it.
programmable: A device or system, including a computer. This allows functionality to be modified in a prescribed manner, typically determined by the user or manufacturer.
programming: (in computing) The use of a computer language to create or modify a set of instructions that causes a computer to do something. The set of instructions that do this is known as a computer program. The term is also used to describe the way something, such as a cell, is designed to function, similar to computer programming. Anyone creating or revising software: programmer.
quantum computing: A special way of manipulating and storing information based on the properties of very small things, such as individual atoms.
sensor: A device that captures and stores or broadcasts information about physical or chemical conditions such as temperature, pressure, salinity, humidity, pH, light intensity, and radiation. Scientists and engineers often rely on sensors to tell them about conditions that can change over time or that exist far from where researchers can directly measure them.
silicon: A nonmetallic semiconductor element used to create electronic circuits. Pure silicon exists as a shiny, dark gray crystalline form and a shapeless powder.
system: A network of parts that work together to accomplish some function. For example, blood, blood vessels, and the heart are the main components of the human body's circulatory system. Similarly, trains, platforms, tracks, road signals, and elevated tracks are among the potential components of a country's railway system. Systems can also apply to processes and ideas that are part of a method or ordered sequence of steps for completing a task.
technology: The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry, or the devices, processes, and systems resulting from such efforts.
theory: (in science) An explanation of some aspect of the natural world based on extensive observations, tests, and theories. A theory is also a way of organizing a wide range of knowledge that can be applied to a wide range of situations to explain what happens. Contrary to the common definition of theory, theories in science are not just intuitions. Ideas and conclusions that are based on theory but not yet based on hard data or observations are called theoretical. Scientists who use mathematics and existing data to predict what will happen in new situations are known as theorists.
transistor: A device that functions like an electrical signal switch.
