 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why is it impossible to vote on someone else's behalf in the European Parliament?

Members of the European Parliament vote not with a card, but with their hand, placing it in the slot of a special sensor.

Electronics will count the vote only if the pattern of lines on the fingers and palm corresponds to the one registered with this deputy. So it is simply impossible to entrust a colleague to vote for himself.

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 ... >>

Artificial retina on photocells 27.09.2021

Scientists from the Center for Neuroprosthetics in Lausanne, Switzerland have developed a fundamentally new type of retinal implant.

More than 3 million patients around the world are blind due to disease or damage to the retina. But the existing implants are of little help so far. They restore visual visibility by no more than 20 degrees, and patients with such implants are officially recognized as visually impaired.

Swiss scientists have developed a flexible polymer implant that is also a solar battery. The image is obtained by video cameras located on the glasses. Here everything is as usual. But then everything is new. The image is transmitted wirelessly to the implanted retina. Moreover, the implant area is almost the same as the natural retina.

The implant material was specially made thin and flexible so that it could be inserted into the eye through a very narrow incision. The large area of ​​the implant allows you to dramatically increase the resolution of the image, compared to existing analogues.

The implant does not need power sources. It is powered by natural light. After receiving the image from the cameras, the artificial retina transmits it further to the optic nerve.

Such an implant, according to scientists, will restore more than 40 degrees of visual visibility and increase the resolution of the image several times. This means that a person can already officially be recognized as sighted. But while there are clinical trials.
