By what criterion did Leonardo da Vinci define a true artist?

Leonardo da Vinci, of course, was interested in which of his 20 students would become a good artist, who was talented, who was worth spending time on.

The great master spoke about his approach to solving this issue as follows: you start to teach them and you see that one succeeds in still life, another in landscape, third in perspective, etc. But the sixth is inferior in still life to the first, in landscapes to the second, in perspective to the third . He has no inclination for specialization, but he is interested in everything. Here he is a real artist.

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

High-speed optical communication Li-Fi 15.06.2013

Li-Fi, short for Light Fidelity, is an optical wireless technology developed and presented by Harald Haas at the 2011 TED Talk. The French company Oledcomm announced that the first communication devices of its production, based on Li-Fi technology, will be available on the market next year.

Li-Fi technology works by binary modulating light from a special LED source. Modulation is carried out at a high frequency, and the transceiver itself in appearance is no different from an ordinary LED light bulb for household lighting.

Receiving sensors connected to computers or other digital electronic devices allow you to receive information when they are exposed to direct light from a Li-Fi source. This imposes some restrictions on the use of this technology, but in the end, such optical communication is somewhat safer than traditional Wi-Fi, the signals of which can be intercepted from anywhere within the range of the equipment. In order to intercept information transmitted via Li-Fi, an attacker will need to place his spy equipment literally on your lap, which can lead to serious difficulties for him.

In addition to the above, Li-Fi optical wireless technology can be used without restriction in places where the use of equipment that emits extraneous radio waves that may interfere with the normal operation of critical equipment is prohibited. Such places, of course, include intensive care wards of medical institutions, aircraft cabins and some other places.

At present, the information transfer rate that Li-Fi technology can provide is slightly higher than the speed of traditional Wi-Fi. Oledcomm representatives report that they have managed to obtain a stable information transfer rate of about 3 Gb / s, and a transfer rate of 10 Gb / s will be achieved in the very near future.
