The New Invention of Universal Detector
If a metal is hit suddenly and with force with light then as a result the electrons on the outer layer flow into waves which are named as plasmons. They give off light of their own body. The studies show that the frequency of that emitted radiation (light) is actually tells about the electronic characteristic nature of the surface of the metal. This light is likely to be readily affected by contaminations.Kevin Tetz has worked on this phenomen...
Lasers To Provide ‘Movies’ of Galaxy Expansion (Part-1)
The scientists have developed new laser technology; this technology will improve the precision of telescopes. There was a time when it was a dream but with the advent of this technology human being would be able to watch the expansion of the universe in real time.These advancements were published in the latest edition of Science. The researchers described about that. Michael Murphy is also among the researchers working on that; he is an astron...
Lasers To Provide ‘Movies’ of Galaxy Expansion (Part-2)
Murphy told that we used the atomic clock for the first time in astronomy; the reason is the precision of their functioning. We are expecting great openings of new researches in a field of astronomy by this. This will enable scientists to perform and get which was a dream in the past.The technology needs many improvements and in future it will be enhanced. It will get more precise in calibration of the spectrographs to record changes. It will ...
Air-Fuelled Vehicles (Part-1)
If I would say that we would be able to drive on air in some years what would you say? It is not fantasy saying it is possible. The future vehicles would be powered by compressed air, rather than gasoline or diesel fuel.Yu-Ta Shen and Yean-Ren Hwang are the two researchers working on that technology. They belong to the National Central University (Taiwan). They succeeded in developing an air-powered motorcycle. They motorcycle will use compres...
Air-Fuelled Vehicles (Part-2)
These scientists do not think it's a feasible product. They describe the reason that a very limited amount of compressed air could be put on a bike. This was said by Shiva Vencat. He is Executive Vice President of MDI, Inc. in New Paltz, N.Y. and CEO of Zero Pollution Motors. Vencat told that they have made a vehicle that will address the consumer market. He said that it is not a motor bike. The detail information about that vehicle could n...
G1 Phone – Google’s First Phone Launched (Part-2)
The G1's touchscreen is much responsive as we experienced in the Apple’s devices. The G1 also features some useful introductions. This includes press and hold feature which could be used to drag icons and photos from one place to another in the phone. It also has a useful magnifying glass. It, as you know, could be used to drag across web pages in order to increase the size of any specific section of the screen. The functionalities presen...
G1 Phone – Google’s First Phone Launched (Part-1)
In this article you will came to know that how the new mobile from Google meets its main rival, Apple’s iPhone. It is expected to release in the month of November and will be on the shelves of the UK’s stores. It is recently launched by Google and T-Mobile. Both of them didn’t mention the name of its big rival (iPhone), but anyone who picks up G1 can know easily that it is iPhone’s competitor. It will be the search giant’s first m...
New Video Coding Technique (Part-2)
The data packets are exactly those needed to deliver the disruption-free video. The researchers use extra data packets in the transmission process to save the information if anything unexpectedly happens. For example if two video packets are to be transmitted, an additional data packet is added equal to the sum of the bytes in the two video data packets. If any one of these transmitted data packets gets lost, the original information would ...
New Video Coding Technique (Part-1)
Video coding techniques always needed to be enhanced. Digital images often results disrupt video display. The new video coding technique is introduced with the name of H.264/AVC. It will ensure the protection of the most significant part of the information and will transmit data packets safely to in reaching the receiver. For example if you are watching your favorite detective series. And at its climax, the very severe thunderstorm outside...
The Work Going On The World’s Most Powerful Magnet (Part-2)
The manufacturing cost of insert and outsert would be $20,000 and $8 million. It is expected that both of them will survive about 100 pulses and 10,000 pulses respectively. The force is very much high and each time it pulses it bends the copper and silver wires. The forceful pulses create tiny cracks in the metal. The cracks created in the copper move into the silver wires and there they stop. It is similar to the reinforced concrete. That...
The Work Going On The World’s Most Powerful Magnet (Part-1)
Scientists are working on to build the most powerful electromagnet of the world. The strongest known materials are being used to make this magnet. This magnet will not blow up a split second after it's turned on. The whole magnet will be having coil sets in it. The entire magnet will weight approximately 18,000 pounds. The power will be given by jolts; the energy will be generated through massive 1,200-megajoules motor generators. You can i...
New IPod touch And IPod Nano- By Apple
Apple's announced latest batch of productions. It includes afresh, lighter and smaller iPod. It is the thinnest ever iPod nano. It’s the fourth generation. The new models both feature sleek new designs. This nano has the biggest advance in terms of functionality. It is attained through an elaborated user interface and an integral accelerometer. It lets the user in performing tricks. It automatically switches to Shuffle mode when the unit is ...
A Sensor Which Could See Without An Eye
An eyeless sensor has been invented. Inspiration is taken from the ability of the human skin to 'see' colors and objects. This would make optical technologies available in the market obsolete. This futuristic device created by Lenoid Yaroslavsky. He is the scientist at Tel Aviv University. This would help in understanding how this primal inherent aptitude might have developed over millions of years. This behavior can be seen also in plants and...
32GB Extreme III Compact Flash Card By Sandisk
SanDisk has brought a 32GB CompactFlash (CF) card. It is introduced in its Extreme III line. It provides transfer rates of 30 MB/s. it is sufficient to keep more than 80 minutes of 100 MB/s, 10-bit, 4:2:2 HD video. The MSRP of this card will be around 300 US dollars. It comes to stores worldwide in October. A card of this working speed and storage space is apparently a best HD video. The pro photographers who photograph in space desirous RA...
