Golden Tips for Styling Based on Pop Culture

With the rise of social media and celebrities, many people are interested in how to dress like their favorite pop culture icon. It can be hard to know where to start, but with these golden tips you’ll find out how simple it is!

 Tip # one: Pay attention to the details One of the easiest ways to get in on an iconic look is by focusing on specific details. If you want a casual outfit like Harry’s, simply find your favorite skinny jeans and button-up shirt (preferably with some cool patches) and accessorize!

While this may seem easy it can be harder than expected for some people. Make sure that when you’re picking out clothes, they don’t clash or overpower each other; if you wear bright colors underneath something dark then everything will just come together awkwardly. Don’t forget about jewelry either – try finding pieces similar to Hermione’s because accessories are key!

Tip # two: Find inspiration from photos

Many people mistake inspiration for copying, but there is a difference. If you only want to copy someone’s look then go ahead – it can be fun! But if you’re looking for something more creative try taking notes of the colors they wear and what kind of styles are popular with them.

A good place to start would be Pinterest or Tumblr because these social media sites have some pretty amazing fashion boards that will help get your creativity flowing.

Once you’ve got an idea in mind, simply find similar pieces from thrift stores (or even shopping at retail shops) and add in any accessories you might need. These places may not always have things exactly like the pictures on Instagram, but don’t give up finding perfect outfits doesn’t happen overnight.

Tip # three: Don’t be afraid to get creative!

Sometimes finding inspiration can seem like copying, but don’t worry – it’s not always the case and doesn’t have to happen that way at all. If you want a laidback outfit then wear some jeans or sweatshirts with your favorite sneakers and call it a day; fashion isn’t restricted by rules so feel free to do what works for you.

And if something does go wrong? No sweat or off white hoodies, just try again because repetition is key in many iconic outfits (i.e wearing plaid shirts). Just remember when doing this method of styling that sometimes taking risks are encouraged. It might take time for people to notice how good you look in certain things, but don’t let that discourage you!

Tip # four: Switch it up

Mixing and matching outfits can be difficult if you’re not sure what works, but there are a few tricks to follow. First off, make sure everything goes together; don’t wear something bright on top of dark colors or else people will think you look like Dr. Seuss (i.e this outfit).

If the clothing has patterns then pay attention to which one is more dominant – for example, wearing horizontal stripes on top of vertical ones would probably end in disaster since they clash with each other. Lastly, try finding some cool accessories that compliment your clothes whether it’s earrings or an awesome belt because adding things like these ensures everyone knows how stylin’ you are.

Selecting the right projection screen

If you are confused about what size projection screen to buy for your meeting, conference, or other events, you are not alone. Projection screens come in a wide variety of sizes and shapes and choosing one could be confusing.

However, knowing how big your screen needs to be is essential because there is no standard projector screen size. The last thing you want is a screen that your entire audience cannot see, or worse, something that does not match the space or is incompatible with the projector.

Fortunately, once you know the details of your event, calculating your screen size comes down to a few simple factors.

First, confirm how many guests you expect and how many people can sit in the room. If your event is taking place in a hotel, you can often see how many people will fit into the different seating arrangements by visiting the hotel’s website.

For small meetings of up to a hundred people, a tripod screen is a great option. Tripod displays come in six and eight inches dimensions, can have 16: 9 and 4: 3 aspect ratios, and are flexible in the event space. They also have adjustable legs, so ceiling height is not a concern, and they do not require technical setup.

But if your audience is more than that, you will need a bigger screen. Fastfold screens need to be set up by a professional, and you should generally verify all the specific details with your AV provider beforehand.

The next thing to know is the aspect ratio. Aspect ratio means the shape of the screen, based on the width to height ratio. These days almost all computer-generated content will be in 16: 9; even if you are unsure of this, choose a 16: 9 screen as it can be adjusted to other aspect ratios.

For an audience of more than a thousand people, you may want to consider a truss screen or custom setup.

So you have chosen your screen size, and now all you have to do is make sure the ceilings in your venue are enough to accommodate your entire setup. For 4: 3 for screens, add three feet for the legs, four feet for 16: 9.

Most places have an outline of the rooms or an online layout that clearly describes the height of the ceiling. If you cannot find this information, you can always schedule a pre-event site inspection to have an AV technician ensure the screen conforms to the event settings.

If your venue does not have high ceilings, consider using more additional small screens or monitors so each guest can view your content. Some places are not big enough to have enough space between the screen and the projector, also called the projection distance.

Your AV provider can help you determine the projection distance and the best location for your projector and screen.

If you already have a projector you plan to use, and it is essential to remember that not all projectors and screens are compatible. As the screen size increases, so do the brightness requirements in a projector.

A projector is like a flashlight, so the bigger the screen and the further away it is from the projector screen, the brighter light is needed. If your projector is not producing enough lumens, you may have a hard time seeing the content on the screen. These are a few tips for choosing a screen for an event.

Accelerometer: How it Works, Applications, and Types

An accelerometer is a device that measures the vibration and acceleration of motion of a construction. The force generated by vibration or acceleration causes a large amount of piezoelectric material to be squeezed out from the mass, producing an electrical charge proportional to the force applied to it.

Since the load is proportional to the force and the mass is constant, the load is proportional to the acceleration. This sensor type is used in various ways, from space stations to handheld devices, and you most likely already have an accelerometer; your smartphone.

They help your phone detect acceleration in any direction, and that is why your phone screen lights up when you turn it over. In the industry environment, accelerometers help engineers understand machine stability and monitor any unwanted forces or vibrations.

The accelerometer works utilizing an electromechanical sensor designed to measure static or dynamic acceleration. Static acceleration is a constant force acting on a body, such as gravity or friction. These forces are primarily predictable and consistent—for example, gravity.

Dynamic acceleration forces are uneven, and the best example of this is vibration or impact. A car accident is a perfect example of dynamic acceleration. Here, the change in acceleration occurs abruptly compared to its previous state. Accelerometers can detect acceleration and convert it into appreciable quantities, such as electrical signals.

There are two types of vibration sensors. The first type is a high impedance load output accelerometer. In this, the piezoelectric crystal produces an electrical charge that is directly connected to the measuring instruments.

Charge output requires special housing and equipment found in research facilities.  A high impedance load output accelerometer is used in high-temperature situations.

The second type of accelerometer is the low impedance output accelerometer. A low impedance accelerometer has a load accelerometer as its front end. Still, it has a small built-in microcircuit and a FET transistor converting this load to a low impedance voltage that can interface with standard instruments.

Accelerometers have many applications in the industry. As already discussed, you can find them on the most complex of your portable devices. Let us take a look at some real-world accelerometer applications.

The screen rotation on your digital camera and smartphone is because of the accelerometer. The invention of airbags has saved millions of lives over the years. Accelerometers are used to move the airbags because the sensor sends a signal in the event of a sudden impact. Accelerometers also help drones stabilize their orientation during flight.

The accelerometers are also used in rotating machines to detect swerving vibrations to measure the stability of a platform or its tilt.

Moving machines produce vibrations, and these vibrations can be harmful to devices if amplified without supervision.  Accelerometers are helpful in monitoring these vibrations and are increasingly used in industrial plants, turbines, etc.
