This is great! I didnt even know there were mechanical analogs to electronic parts. This is going to make electronic teaching an awful lot mote intuitive!

- c-smile 5y agoThere are also such things as "pneumonics" and "fluidics" : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidics These are used, for example, in avia and rocket engines - in first or independent contours of their control systems. Such logic devices are very reliable, relatively simple and can work at extreme temperatures.
- hellbannedguy 5y agoThe USA should start teaching electronics in third grade, and through high school. Don't even grade the kids. I think it's more important ever for kids to know. I pick third grade only because I was thinking about kids safety. I don't know when kids stop swallows stuff these days. I wonder why they don't start teaching kids important stuff early on, like; mechanics, finance, starting a business (profitable lemonade stand, and how ridiculous a permit is technically needed to operate, building residences. I for one colored to many maps, and memorized who Ecuador produces. I think in the USA electronics couldn't be taught in grade school is the shortage of teachers who barely understand electricity, and math now, but that would change eventually? I just pictured a dad from the future telling 13 year old Opie to fix the Tesla in Dan Akroyd voice. "Opie, but you learned how to properly dischge a capacitor in Miss Orliey's class?" Maybe just reading, writing, and arithmetic after all that?
