Stand-alone, file based, multi-track recorders from Sound Devices, This of course results in a reduction in audio quality, but a variety of techniques are used, mainly by exploiting psychoacoustics, to remove the data that has least effect on perceived quality.

Devices operating on several different physical processes have been used over the millennia, culminating in the clocks of today.

The lab was working on semiconductor bubble memory when Boyle and Smith conceived of the design of what they termed, in their notebook, " Charge ' Bubble ' Devices ".

Devices with many switches ( such as a computer keyboard ) usually arrange these switches in a scan matrix, with the individual switches on the intersections of x and y lines.

Devices set to a specific channel will ignore the messages sent on all other channels.

Devices that convert USB to RS-232 may not work with all software on all personal computers and may cause a reduction in bandwidth along with higher latency.

In 1903, high school mathematics teacher Konstantin Tsiolkovsky ( 1857 – 1935 ), published Исследование мировых пространств реактивными приборами ( The Exploration of Cosmic Space by Means of Reaction Devices ), the first serious scientific work on space travel.

In 1903, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky ( 1857 – 1935 ) published Means of Reaction Devices ( in Russian: Исследование мировых пространств реактивными приборами ), which is the first academic treatise on the use of rocketry to launch spacecraft.

Devices using semiconductors at first were constructed based on empirical knowledge, but semiconductor theory provided a guide to construction of more capable and reliable devices.

Mobility Devices must be ridden on footpaths where possible, at a speed that does not endanger others, and give way to pedestrians.

Because of these features, and the potential and high probability of security exploits on Network Enabled Embedded Devices ( NEEDs ), this technique has come to the attention of numerous hacker communities.

Flight Simulation Training Devices ( FSTD ) are used to train pilots on the ground.

They can be made as Charged Devices ( which cost no vis but have a limited number of uses ), Lesser Devices ( which require the magus to be able to enchant them in a single season, and may only hold one effect ), or Invested Devices ( which require that the magus spends additional time to prepare in advance, may be enchanted over several seasons, and may hold several effects based on the size and material ).

Examples of contemporary VLIW CPUs include the TriMedia media processors by NXP ( formerly Philips Semiconductors ), the SHARC DSP by Analog Devices, the C6000 DSP family by Texas Instruments, and the STMicroelectronics ST200 family based on the Lx architecture ( also designed by Josh Fisher ).

Helix DNA also manifests itself as the RealPlayer on Mobile Internet Devices ( MID ) and on Netbooks.

* The US Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices specifies orange for use in temporary and construction signage.

Devices which should fire in sequence can be branched from a single master fuse, consisting of quick match spliced onto Visco fuses of various length for time delays.

White center lines were used in the United States until the 1971 edition of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, which mandated yellow as the standard color of center lines nationwide ( after several decades of debate on the issue and some states already offering the double and single solid yellow center line ).

Devices without tri-state outputs can't share SPI bus segments with other devices ; only one such slave could talk to the master, and only its chip select could be activated.

Devices that function only as transit routers are similarly called P ( Provider ) routers.

Devices that are exclusively for recording ( e. g. printers ), exclusively for reading ( e. g. barcode readers ), or devices that process only one form of information ( e. g. phonographs ) may or may not be considered storage devices.

Devices will only accept communications originating from a key provided by the trust center, except for the initial master key.

" His Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices appears to have been quite popular as it appears in a large number of manuscript copies, and as he explains repeatedly, he only describes devices he has built himself.

Devices that support miniSDHC will work with miniSD and miniSDHC, but devices without specific support for miniSDHC will work only with the older miniSD card.

Devices are only authorized for campaigns participated in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Devices like this generally have nearfields of only a few meters.

Devices advertised as HD-compatible or HD ready could take HDTV-signal as an input ( via analog-YPbPr or digital DVI or HDMI ), but they did not have enough pixels for true representation of even the lower HD resolution ( 1280 × 720 ) ( CRT based sets only capable of SDTV-resolution or VGA-resolution, 640 × 480 pixels, or the plasma-based sets with 1024 × 768 resolution ), lest the higher HD resolution ( 1920 × 1080 ), and so were unable to display the HD picture without downscaling to a lower resolution.
