Abstract

You have a closed box. There may be a live cat inside, but you won't know until you open the box. For most people, this situation is a theoretical conundrum that probes the foundations of quantum mechanics. For me, however, it's a pressing practical problem, not least because physics completely skates over the vital issue of how annoyed the cat will be when the box is opened. But fortunately, engineering comes to the rescue, in the form of a new US $50 maker-friendly pulsed coherent radar sensor from SparkFun.
雷达猫探测器 > 当你真的需要知道盒子里装的是什么时
你有一个封闭的盒子。里面可能有一只活猫,但要打开盒子才能知道。对大多数人来说,这种情况是一个理论难题,探究的是量子力学的基础。但对我来说,这是一个紧迫的实际问题,尤其是因为物理学完全忽略了盒子打开后猫会有多恼火这个重要问题。但幸运的是,SparkFun 公司推出了一款价值 50 美元的新型脉冲相干雷达传感器,它是工程学的救星。
