The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Creative Sound Blaster Series Headsets 15.06.2013

Creative Technology has unveiled the Creative Sound Blaster EVO ZxR and Sound Blaster EVO Zx headsets. According to the manufacturer, these are the world's first wireless headsets with built-in Sound Blaster SB-Axx1 multi-core processors. Processors are used to improve sound and sound correction when playing sound recordings, watching movies, playing games and voice communications.

The Sound Blaster EVO ZxR and Sound Blaster EVO Zx are said to be 'ideal for communication' when used with today's smartphones and tablets. They provide high-quality calls even in noisy environments, as they have arrays of microphones built into the earcups. The signal coming from them is used for active noise reduction and formation by the SB-Axx1 processor and CrystalVoice Focus technology of an acoustic zone around the user's mouth, free from noise. This feature is in demand for voice communication on the phone, through the Skype service and in games. Noise reduction with inNoiseReduction improves the quality of the incoming audio signal. Another interesting feature worth mentioning is CrystalVoice FX, which turns the caller's voice into the voice of a fantasy character.

The aptX and AAC Bluetooth codecs are used to transmit audio data wirelessly. The connection itself can be made instantly, by simply touching the mobile device (provided that it supports NFC). Wired connection is also available - via USB or analog input.

As for sound processing when listening to sound recordings or watching movies, the user can use proprietary technologies implemented in SBX Pro Studio and CrystalVoice software. Settings are controlled by Sound Blaster Central, available for iOS and Android. On PC and Mac, Sound Blaster EVO Control Panel performs the same function. You can also activate the SBX Pro Studio and adjust the volume level using the buttons on the headphones themselves.
The Sound Blaster EVO ZxR costs $300. It uses 50mm drivers. Sales of this model will begin in August.

The Sound Blaster EVO Zx costs $230. It uses 40mm drivers. Sales of this model will begin in July.
At the same time, more affordable models with 40 mm drivers are presented: Sound Blaster EVO Wireless and Sound Blaster EVO. They do not have an integrated processor, besides, only the first model has a wireless connection. The price of Sound Blaster EVO Wireless is $180, Sound Blaster EVO is $130. Both new items will be on sale in July.
