Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

MIPS Warrior I64 6400-bit processor cores 06.09.2014

Imagination Technologies introduced the I6400 family of MIPS I-class processors, which are the first IP cores to combine 64-bit architecture and hardware virtualization with scalable performance through bundled multi-threading, multi-core and multi-cluster processing. According to the developer, the extraordinary set of features and the best balance of performance, power consumption and die area put the I6400 far ahead of competing solutions. Customers have the opportunity to choose the required ratio of die sizes and processor performance during implementation.

The MIPS Warrior I-class cores are said to set a new standard for 64-bit mainstream computing across a wide range of applications, including embedded and mobile systems, consumer electronics, communications, networking and storage. And all this - within the same family of MIPS cores.

The I6400 cores are based on the MIPS Release 6 (r6) architecture, which includes the MIPS32 and MIPS64 instruction sets, which eliminates the overhead of 64-bit computing.

According to Imagination Technologies, the i6400 cores in their class outperform competitors by over 50% in CoreMark and 30% in DMIPS. The features of the new cores include hardware support for up to four threads with parallel execution of several instructions in different threads on each cycle. An important feature of the I6400 is the presence of advanced data protection tools, including support for independent contexts and execution areas. The floating point unit in the I6400 supports single and double precision. The kernel supports 128-bit SIMD instructions. In addition, it is worth noting the advanced PowerGearing power management mechanisms, including independent clocking and powering of each core in a heterogeneous cluster.

A wide range of development tools are available for the new processor cores, including support for MIPS64 r6 in the QEMU emulator.
