flexible future for smartphones and tablets like a paper

It looks like IT companies and wireless operators adhered to the principle, "the smaller, the better," even as Galaxy Tab tablet and Apple iPad two competing to be the thinnest. However, the researchers Human Media Lab Queen's University made ​​a surprise by developing the first interactive computer paper described as a versatile iPhone.



Roel Vertegaal, Human Media Lab Director stated they successfully developed a prototype "paper" world's first smartphone, called PaperPhone with forms such as thin paper sheets made ​​from plastic and can operate like a smartphone. This technology makes the smartphone into a flexible and very thin films with a diagonal E Ink display 9.5cm.



Despite having a thin and light design, PaperPhone able to make phone calls, play music, store dokuman, address, and photo. Larger version of this technology can be used to reduce some office needs, such as printers, paper and ink cartridge standard.



Do not expect a sharp graphical display or the ability to display movies or games on PaperPhone, because that can be displayed graphically displays E Ink is still limited.



Vertegaal said the technology is to make the office no longer requires paper, because it can all be stored digitally and you can accumulate these computers to each other just like paper. Vertegaal PaperPhone will present on May 10 at the conference the Association Computing Machinery Computer Human Interaction in Vancouver Canada. (Fahrur)

advanced sniper weapons in the world

hello everyone, this morning I'll post again, after some previous post discusses the technology and others, today I will post pictures of snipers in the world's most sophisticated, well just go ahead

1. H&K G-3

This rifle is actually a normal assault rifle. But because it has features - features that exceed the usual assault rifles such as 7.62 x 51 mm caliber, magasennya only fit 20 rounds only and too heavy. In addition a further range of normal-caliber assault rifle 5.56 x 45 mm NATO and berakurasi topnotch then encouraged to try to pair the target spy telescope on it and the result is positive. G - 3 capable of hitting targets with a landslide of steel plate at a distance of 750 meters.

2.Psg-1

PSG - 1 is the replacement G - 3. Applying semi-automatic rifle is a sniper rifle squad mainstay German Army Special Forces today. With a capital of 7.62 caliber bullet x 51 mm NATO rifle could reach targets at a distance of 850 meters without difficulty. Ability is obtained thanks to the heavy barrel that was applied to the barrel. Heavy Barrel system can increase accuracy because the vibration in the barrel can be minimized.

3.SVD Dragunov

A feared sniper rifle U.S. troops in Afghanistan because the Taliban are hiding every sniper in the mountains - mountains Afgan hold. Dragunov sniper rifle is based on a Russian-made AK - 47. Only relatively sophisticated hentakannya anchoring system so that recoilnya smooth. Dragunov ahead in the points range and accuracy. Pelurung can hit targets at a distance of 950 meters. This capability is clearly beyond the ability of western sniper rifles. Capability can be achieved thanks to a larger caliber, namely 7.292 x 79 mm Warsaw.

4.L - 96 A -1 / AWP

This rifle is a sniper rifle mainstay of the Royal Army (British Army). Guns that have a price for mercy includes best-in-class rifle bolt action. These rifles have the ability to use 2 caliber. First caliber 7.62 x 51 mm NATO and the caliber Lapua Magnum. To replace the caliber by simply replacing the barrel and then rifle chambernya course of action is a direct hit targets 1100 meters away with Lapua Magnum caliber.

5.Remington 700

This is one of the best sniper rifle in the world. Developed from the success of the Winchester 70, Remington 700 on select again later when the U.S. need a new sniper, M24 Remington 700 models developed since 1962, when U.S. Marines Winchester refused requests for a replacement barrel. Charlos Hatchock including the user model 700. The photo above is a Winchester 70.

Weight empty: 3.9 kg (4.6 pounds with a telescope)
Magasen: fill in 5 or 10 rounds.

Steyr SSG rifle duck (ScharfShutzenGewer 69) developed and manufactured by the manufacturer Steyr-Daimler-Puch, Austria (Steyr Not Manlincher). Technically, SSG-69 operating system with bolt action, rotating bolt (6 lug) with input magasen. Rifle named SSG 69 (SSG-P1 AKA) pisir originally equipped with metal, and the modified version is not equipped pisir. In America it was coded M24 rifle used by the shooter and duck from the U.S. Army (later rivaled by the Remington Model 700).

Steyr SSG rifle duck is now offered in four models of the military version; SSG-PI, SSG-PII,-PIIK SSG and SSG-PIV. SSG-PI was originally developed as a counter-shooter rifle duck, and comes with a synthetic stock. Has a 660mm long barrel fitted with metallic sights and a standard telescope sight of NATO.

SSG-PII as the police version of the duck tactical rifle has a barrel over 26 ", SSG-PIIK has a barrel length of 20" (508mm). SSG-PIV in Europe called SSG SD has a barrel over 16 "(406mm) with additional flash hider (silencer firelight while spewing bullets) and can be fitted with silencers. All versions are equipped SSG butt of polymer materials.

5 advanced robots this year (Humanoid)

hello all, this time I will post about technology today is very much in use by humans, especially in factories or large industrial, yes of course I mean the robot, the robot now has been very helpful man in many respects, well just go ahead , and which we will discuss this time of humanoid robot.
humnoid robot is one branch of the robot focuses its innovation on the shape and movements that resemble the original form of living being made ​​in the object of innovation.

development of robots that are increasingly sophisticated, increasingly make robots more like humans and animals.

here are some robots that are almost like the original object ..

1.Robot humanoid Jepang tipeHRP-4C

This robot is a humanoid robot designed "Beautiful" to the size of the robots you know. If the only glimpse you definitely will not be convinced by the subtle movement of human-like movements. This humanoid robot after going through several improvements from the previous one only able to move the upper body, and it was a little stiff. Now after some time improving the robot is able to dance, holding the microphone, adjust the movement of people (already programmed).

2. MYON ALEAR
Engineers at the laboratory at Humboldt University, Berlin, creating a humanoid that can create their own language.


Produced by the design firm Frackenpohl Poulhelm and plastics company Bayer MaterialScience.

Myon is part of a project called Artifical Language Evoluton on Autonomous Robots (ALEAR).

The project is intended to make robots capable of managing independently rich conceptual framework so as to produce a communication system similar to human language. Myon designed with a high as a four-year old child weighing 15 kg. He also has 200 sensors and touch-screen panel that is embedded in the leather and reinforced by a polycarbonate.

Myon, Humanoid robot created by the Engineers at the laboratory at Humboldt University, Berlin.

neo, the soccer player

Good news for lovers of robotics. Aldebaran Nao humanoid robot made​​, France, will be open source projects. Source code for programming the robot in the near future may be freely accessible to everyone and modified as desired.

3.NEO.

lovers of robots must be familiar with the hobby's lively play this ball, is known as a model of humanoid robots is quite comprehensive. Since Sony's Aibo robot dog to stop the project some time ago, the robotics community to choose a model Nao. For example in the activities of a robot soccer competition RoboCup Soccer is held regularly.

"With experience developing embedded systems for five years, we want to share middleware, core communication library, pengembangkan lintasplatform tools, and modules we made ​​essential to the researchers, developers, and new projects in dunai humanoid robot," said Bruno Maissonier , founder and CEO of Aldebaran in a press release reported by the site Spectrum, IEEE, lalu.Di Indonesia last week, the distribution of the robot Nao conducted via the World robotic Explorer in Menara Thamrin. That said, one robot priced around USD 300 juta.ada interested for a football team?

4. coquettish,HRP-4C

"Hello everyone, my cybernetic human HRP-4C," says fashionista futuristic, open its media debut at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology outside Tokyo. They will likely be the last words he heard before he was the inventor of choking the life from them. The face robot mode is a feature designed to suit the popular anime characters, such as a small nose and eyes dilate, he gave the manga-inspired face to go with his metallic body.

Standing at 158 cm tall and weighing in at 43 kilograms, the robot motion model using 42 on-board monitors to emulate the movement of real life fashion model, such as bending while vomiting out their lunch. While on the screen to the camera for his debut, HRP-4C able to flash a bright smile, strike poses and even her lips pouted. There is one mistake But what happens when a sound sensor HRP-4C's confession raised voice too much conflict during the demonstrations, led him to mix the facial expressions. Hey, at least he did not pull out the 9mm and started to ask for the location of one of John Conner.

So what's next? Well, the designers plan to showcase their robots on a fashion show in Tokyo on 23, and from there, who knows, but our expectation is that one lab technician will boning it on weekends. With a price tag of $ 3 million, just consider the most expensive escort, you will never pay.



5. robot maid

You are married and have a maid was certainly a hope to get a faithful housekeeper, not easily tired and under. There is an answer for this one needs is a ROBOT.
There's a new robot is sophisticated enough so that it can do some things that used to do domestic servants. Usually only berfungsu for a robot of sorts, but this time the robot is more sophisticated because one can wash glasses, dishes and cleaning floors with a vacuum cleaner.

This robot can learn to wash all kinds of household furniture, whether pot, cups, or dishes, because researchers at Tokyo University have devised a simulation video games and human motion capture for this robot. This robot also has been equipped with sensors to recognize its environment so it can move freely and do not miss waterproof gloves so that the robot is not broke hit the water only; D


Let's see the action the robot is in the following images:
