How The RFID chips Will Help Us Find Our Lost Belongings
Do you lose your belongings? How often? If your answer is “yes”, then you can be rest assured: the technology work in your favor. For several years, researchers from different countries work on new applications of technology called RFID. The abbreviation comes from the English-language term “radio frequency identification” – technology that is used from the early 70s of the 20th century, but which gained momentum only recently thanks to a lower production costs.
Google Is Introducing New Mobile Site Optimization Platform
Google introduces new requirements on websites when they are open from mobile devices, and in the same time creating a new platform for mobile page creation. The initiative is called Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) and aims to improve the loading speed of mobile websites.
“We want websites with video, animations and graphics to work with smart ads and instantaneously. We want a single source code to run on different devices and platforms to enable content to be displayed anywhere regardless of the type of device you use” , says Google in its official blog.
Microsoft’s new Smartphones are Equipped With Liquid Cooling
Microsoft introduced two new mobile phones that will be the new flagship devices of the company. They rely on a liquid-cooling, in order to use more powerful processors. And it is necessary because the devices can be used as partial replacements for the PC.
This will be possible thanks to the Windows 10 platform Continuum, which is part of it. It allows the new phones like Lumia 950 and 950 XL to connect a small dock, and through it with a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. This automatically brings the interface of Windows 10 interface on to the computer monitor, and let the user use Windows embedded application.
One Futurologist Toughts on Internet of Things
From the several years one phrase – Internet of things – grabs the attention of experts and ordinary people, causing them to dream, theorize and discuss the benefits and negatives of the ability of wide range of devices to connect to each other. Indeed the ‘internet of things “is not a meaningless phrase, but a reality that does not conclude with the smart thermostats Nest.
Well, there are people who do not think so. “Internet of things is a myth, and such a device can have no social benefit, even to exist“. This Bold statement belongs to Dr. Alison Powell, a professor at the Faculty of Media and Communications at the London School of Economics & Technology, futurologist, who recently gave a lecture on security and protection of data, which was held by the “Royal Society”. Describing the IoT, as another modern phrase around which raises too much noise, Powell said that the concept of IoT has generated a huge amount of wishful assumptions and half-baked plans, like let us say persisting myth of internet-connected fridge. “It is a myth that already exists for 15 years – the idea that our refrigerator would be very good if it is connected to the Internet ” she says.
Why Vint Cerf believes that one day we may hear about refrigerators robbing banks
When in May 2000 ILOVEYOU worm made its premiere, revealing weaknesses to the world of computers and Internet, many experienced a real shock. Not that this was the first threat on the Internet, but the blow it made – losses calculated in billions of dollars made by the worm as well as its ability to smoothly penetrate in thousands of systems – echoed in the minds of people. Scenario, which until recently was seen only in Hollywood film, has become a reality in a night.
Today traditional network threats are already well known, though there is always constant stream of newer versions of old threats. But one scenario in which many IT experts warn, that many say looks so believable, as the appearance of ILOVEYOU in 1998, startle the dream of people caring for network security on Internet. It is about the dangers of taking control of thousands of interconnected objects and harnessing their powerful in massive botnet armies that can take down not only ordinary websites, but financial institutions and markets, infrastructures related to technology which helps “dumb” until now objects from everyday life to “get smart” talking with other things – TVs, vanities, refrigerators, thermostats and whatnot – an area that is so uncharted and risky – warn infosec experts – while already on the market.
Apple Fuel Cells and Europe Recycling Crysis
Apple is well known for its applications for patents that describe devices powered by renewable energy sources such as solar energy and movement. No doubt the company continues to do just that. In a recently filed patent the company described a “portable and cost-effective fuel cell systems for portable computing device”, which seems that the company provides a device that can use several different energy source through the fuel cell.
Although the company has yet to produce such a machine powered by renewable energy, Apple seems quick to patent everything they could provide as possible use in future and current devices.
In his patent application Apple explains his interest in the use of fuel cells. The basis of this decision, according to the Apple is the dependence of her native country from fossil fuels, which forced the government to maintain complicated political and military relationships with unstable countries in the Middle East.”
The Portable Trinity Wind Turbines Can Charge Your Smartphone Or Electric Car
То use renewable energy is a challenge for many of us. Despite the rapid fall of solar panels price, solar power is not available to many – there are a lot of eco-conscious people who do not have a a space to install them. Wind energy is another option in many areas, but there is still a problem if the person does not have land on which to install big wind turbines. Janulus, a Minnesota company that works on creating a weather dependant and portable wind turbines, recently launched a campaign on Kickstarter to raise funds to finance four new easy to use models, exquisitely designed for renewable energy and ease of use.
The company has developed 4 different models of its portable Trinity wind turbine series with a capacity of 50, 400, 1000 and 2500 watts. The turbines rely on 7500 300 000 mAh lithium-ion batteries, depending on the model. The smallest of wind turbines weighs just 1.4 kg. This makes it really portable in the strict sense of the word. Even the largest model does collect in the trunk of a car. Furthermore, the turbines are equipped with two different types of blades, so that the user can “personalize” the models and to take advantage of the high and low wind conditions.
Southern Oceans Absorb Huge Amounts Of Carbon Dioxide
Oceans in the southern hemisphere of the Earth absorb more and more volumes of carbon dioxide – a major greenhouse gas, team of scientists had discovered.
The trend is increasing since 2002, but precise forecasting of its development is impossible, says the University of East England.
World Ocean absorbs huge amounts of carbon dioxide and almost half is accounted in waters surrounding Antarctica. These oceans and seas conditionally called Southern Ocean because they are located in the Southern Hemisphere.
Just like lungs, they absorb polluted air and exhale purified, as a significant portion of the carbon dioxide remains in the ocean. This is much more than quantity dismissed back into the atmosphere. Scientists believe that the Southern Ocean slows the pace of global warming.
