New liquid metal at room temperature no heat welding possible

　　Researchers at Iowa State University, has created a novel liquid metal particles. It can remain liquid at room temperature, also can make material between integration. The new solid-liquid mixture can be no heat welding, as well as electronic circuit repair aspects play a practical role. But this is a metal found some by accident, because the researchers wanted to find a way to prevent liquid metals at below the normal freezing point temperature back to solid.

　　This is called "supercooled" (undercooling) technique, often used to analyze the internal structure of the metal, is also an alternative to metal processing, but the biggest obstacle is made difficult to a stable supply of "cold" metal.

　　The team at Iowa State University, thought through and evenly thin coating to keep small drops of molten metal to form a balanced contains super-cooled liquid metal particles.

　　In order to create these particles, the researchers used a high-speed rotary tool, to be cut up into tiny droplets of liquid metal, and suspended in the acetic acid/diethylene glycol in the mixture. Victorias Secret iPhone 6 Case

　　This new type of liquid metal particles can be at room temperature no heat welding and repair of electronic circuits play an important role in such areas.

　　When exposed to the air, can oxidize and produce metal foam on the surface of the material. After the oxidation process, the team will be polished smooth.

　　Liquid metal particle diameter of only 10 microns (red blood cells), the team will observe the bubbles and repair microscopic defects and micro jointing and splicing "macro" section.

　　It says in the paper: "experiment proves new material at room temperature under non-destructive surface welding process without sophisticated equipment, complex materials, or high temperature metal joining process".

　　Thuo has applied for a patent and established startups, they are currently testing and improving the new liquid metal electrical and mechanical reliability. More papers have been published in a recent issue of the scientific report (Scientific Reports) journal.

Scandinavian Airlines to chip hand implantation to simplify boarding procedures

　　Wei Feng network on January 21, in many cases, people choose plane in order to save time. Even so, before the flyers still draws plenty of time spent on various procedures, such as led boarding passes, baggage and security checks, and so on. And even if you dealt with these procedures, and pray it's not to late to just go, of course, it is not totally controlled by the airline. But what they can do is, if other facilitation, it is possible to improve efficiency. Hello Kitty iPad

　　Thus, Scandinavian Airlines system puts in chips implanted in the arm programme. After the chips are implanted, and passengers both check and the security Terminal, no longer produce any document can be completed. Because each chip is completely independent, so after the implantation, others are not "impersonating" boarding of your identity, even air miles can be accumulated automatically.

　　Of course, this package is also the biggest problem: how to make a success of people to accept it. Implanted into the body, after all, some strange things, many people first heard when they are rejected. However only after actually using, what is the added special effects and still works really well, and only after the official test run can know.

Games virtual reality also has huge market

Over 20 years ago, London there was consumer-oriented virtual reality helmet. In a theme park near London has two enormous chairs, the two chairs of the built-in computer, and connect the two big helmet, put on the helmet can be experienced "virtual reality game", including the simulated flight. But in the helmet of a huge, ugly and very heavy, because the user experience and market narrow problems, such products gradually dying out.

How to obtain ground-breaking technology is the virtual reality industry can revive the primary factor. Motion sensors larger than the virtual reality market. Video game industry has a $ 60 billion market, due to its characteristics-immersion (immersion) and escape (escapism).

Consumer-level virtual reality games can be said to be a failure. Virtual reality is widely used in automation industry, and even NASA should be used to train astronauts. But for consumers,, virtual reality of products still is expensive and heavy of; and sometimes will errors recognition or leak recognition user action, this on immersion type application produced is big effect; again plus action recognition of lag time is long, led to user experience is poor; phase more and today of standard image, at image also too original, and 18 inches of TV screen also to reached virtual reality world of effect. KENZO iPhone 6 Case

In Facebook before the acquisition, Oculus company in raising project on Kickstarter Oculus Rift. Valuation of social media that Oculus Rift20 billions of dollars proved that coming decades will have a broad market of virtual reality.

In gaming, either console or PC games at fidelity and immersed sense there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Nintendo's Wii opened a somatosensory era, although in some ways has been replaced by Sony and Microsoft. Today's games are no longer pursued more dazzling images and larger screen, replaced by the pursuit of ever more immersive effect. This is the reason why PC gaming even more powerful – virtual reality images of realistic levels, well above the best hosting games. Oculus has started like the PC and smart phones, into the family.

PC machines have 4K that can handle extremely high resolution images for virtual reality applications to increase weight. At present, two high-end graphics cards to more easily deal with 4K game images. AMD's Radeon R9 295X2 kajugui, dual GPU Nvidia upcoming Titan z graphics card may also be expensive. Lucky is now 4 k resolution monitor to less than US $ 1000, AMD and Nvidia gaming graphics card that supports 4K images of the company, will have a bigger market. If 4K can monitor and video card significantly lower prices, large scale application of high resolution virtual reality, there may be.

For the game, meant the application of based on virtual reality immersive experience. Holographic described in the movie Star Trek deck, almost all types of gaming needs. Virtual reality once the mass games, almost all of the games have a huge impact. cover Kenzo iPhone 6

Not only can be applied to virtual reality games, some companies have applied to the product, Oculus Rift is an example. Can also be applied to the famous buildings and cities--a virtual journey through the use of recording technology similar to Google Street view, immersive experience for users.

When you're shopping online, especially when buying clothes, sometimes pictures do not keep up? Virtual reality by providing high resolution 3D model to change online shopping experience, even better than online retailers offering a full range, can provide near-store shopping experience for you.

Television industry is in danger of being subverted. Virtual reality may affect all forms of home entertainment. May emerge more within a few years of virtual reality products: Oculus VR and Facebook now have an advantage, but may also be replaced by the new from the show.

To combat the high hopes for the IBM Power processor

　　Wei Feng network, November 20, IBM recently announced that they are and chip maker Xilinx (Xilinx) cooperation, will Power the processor usage extended to the server field, hoping to compete with Intel in the data center market.

　　It was earlier this week, IBM announced a message relating to the company's Open Power schemes. Last year, IBM introduced the Open Power Power processor design program is designed to be licensed to other companies, and to inject new vitality into this product. Ted Baker iPhone cases

　　Penguin Computing and from Italy of E4 Computer Engineering in the production of high performance computer system based on Power chips. IBM says they are and NVIDIA collaborate in the Watson supercomputer that uses the same Power Chip uses NVIDIA GPU.

　　This is IBM's big changes. Prior to this, only IBM Power servers company is able to produce, because it uses IBM technology. As the Unix market share fell, IBM Corporation selected to Power the platform open, so that third parties can produce Power-related products.

　　It is understood that IBM Open Power President Brad McCredie said, cooperation with the Xilinx company will make IBM and its partners in the Power system using Xilinx FPGA chip company. The chips can improve certain types of server load and run faster. He added: "Moore began to slow, FPGA chip to become the key to improve server performance. "

　　Xilinx's chips to IBM's CAPI (accelerator processor interface) work together and provides direct access to Power the processor's cache, thus improving system performance.

　　IBM's Power was an attempt to challenge Intel's dominance of the two X86 in the server platform, one of the other ARM. Qualcomm has announced that it will develop the first ARM Server chips, they also cooperate with Xilinx, want the FPGA and ARM chips together.

　　At present, IBM and ARM, to create software and hardware can match Intel's eco-system is a very difficult task. Intel is implementing the strategy of combining its chip and FPGA, and will also speed up the process. Taking into account the factors of cost and performance, some customers prefer to be able to see the other server platforms appear, for the industry as a whole, such competition is very conducive to development. Ted Baker phone cover

　　In addition, Penguin Computing will on Monday launch a next-generation high performance computer systems based on IBM Power processor 8 Magna 2001. This 2U system supports 12 storage drives and 32 memory slots, running the memory up to 2TB. Like other Penguin systems running Linux.

　　Penguin Computing's President and Chief Executive Officer Dr Tom Coull said, because virtual CPU cores that support up to 96 and, therefore, Magna 2001 is a very powerful virtualization platform. Because the Power of 8 processors and higher memory bandwidth, the system is also very suitable for cloud storage.

　　Wei Feng network on April 12, Ford recently to driverless cars carried out a night-time test. In the process of testing, driverless cars performed extremely well, it depends to a large extent on vehicles equipped with LIDAR scans and circuit road navigation system.

　　In the dark of night, the driverless car vehicle camera combined with radar and laser scanning system can work properly, but because Ford will test locations in Arizona, they still need to deal with some unexpected situation, such as the sudden appearance of animals (such as the Badger) and complex road conditions.

　　For humans, driving in the dark was a big challenge, headlights must be turned on. And Ford said they turned off the lights in the testing process, the main objective was to test the car whether the camera does not work when running.

　　Ford said this driverless technology will be given priority for some driving consumer groups, if you built this technology to all the cars, need more participation of manufacturers and high-tech companies. Victorias Secret case for iPad Mini Victorias Secret Case

New research shows that electrical stimulation of the scalp can be treated sea

　　At present, the cause of motion sickness is still a mystery, but scientists prevalent theory is that when we are moving, when our brains from the ears and the eyes have received confusing information.

　　This is a very common scenario, and an impact on most people, this means that we will ship or riding a roller coaster feel queasy. In addition, one out of every 10 people will have 3 people experienced unbearable sickness symptoms, such as dizziness, severe nausea, vomiting, and sweating, and so on.

　　A few days ago, a study from Imperial College London, published in the journal Neurology, the results showed that, exerting mild currents in the scalp can inhibit the area of the brain responsible for processing signal response. Doing so helps reduce clutter signal input of the brain, so as to prevent the symptoms of motion sickness. This technology provides a very safe and effective interventions, could anyone can buy next to the device.

　　It is understood that Dr Qadeer Arshad from London's Imperial College School of medicine who led the study, said: "we have the confidence to allow people to walk into a pharmacy to buy in the 5-10 to anti-sea appliance. "This device could be a similar to machines used to treat back pain.

　　"We hope that it can even phone integrated with, this headset jack provides the technology needed to moderate current. In this case, you only need to connect the small electrode before the journey begins on the scalp, such as prior to boarding. " Givenchy iPhone 6 plus cover

　　In order to prove the effect of electrical stimulation, the researchers conducted a study of simulated seasickness. In the course of study, volunteers with electrodes on their head, in about 10 minutes, and then they were asked to simulate humans on board in Tilt Swivel chair or on a roller-coaster campaign. After the treatment, they felt nausea and to reduce the chance of many, and recover more quickly.

　　Involved in the study of motion sickness expert Professor Michael Gresty said: "the problem with motion sickness therapy is effective pills often cause drowsiness. If you are just a short trip, it all does not matter, but if you need to work while anti-motion while on a cruise, then what should I do? "

　　"We are really pleased to be able to find a way to provide an effective measure and there are no apparent side effects of motion sickness therapy. We can achieve results very close to the best motion sickness, motion sickness pills. " iPhone 6 plus case Givenchy

　　The team has begun discussions with partners and equipment research and development issues, military-industrial sector but also to the study of particular interest. This technology has the potential to help those remote controlled drones through a visual interface feel disgusting people.

　　Dr Qadeer Arshad said: "in other studies, we found clear evidence that stimulating the brain in this way to improve attention and concentration. Military has expressed great interest, we can imagine, others like students and played computer games for a long time people will want to try it. "He said, studying the currents involved are very small, there is no reason to have an adverse effect in the short term when used.
