Smart Message Language Reader for Home Automation

The continuous development in the field of home automation opens up ever new possibilities to control the energy consumption in our homes efficiently. A crucial step in this direction is the reading of data from smart electricity meters using the Smart Message Language to gain detailed insights into energy consumption. That’s exactly why I created “SML-Reader” to read out the Smart Message Language data and then send it to smart home systems, such as Home Assistant, via MQTT. ...

The Michelson-Morley Experiment and the Aether Theory

This blog Post has an alternative Video version if you prefer that. The video can be accessed on YouTube. The Michelson-Morley experiment is an important physics experiment conducted in the late 19th century. It was already known in earlier times that light propagates in waves and was compared to water waves, which require a medium, namely water. Michelson and Morley thought that light must also have a medium, namely the aether, and they wanted to prove this through an experiment. ...

Protein Biosynthesis

If you are more of a visual learner, you can also view my YouTube video for protein synthesis, which is embedded or directly available on YouTube. Proteins are the workhorses of life and perform a variety of essential functions in our cells. But have you ever wondered how these complex molecules are actually made? The answer lies in the fascinating world of protein synthesis, a remarkable cellular process that we are in the process of unraveling. ...
