What can drive a dog crazy?

Everyone knows that a dog is man's best friend. But sometimes even the friendliest dog can turn into a creature whose bite is deadly! This happens not because the dog's character changes, but because it is infected with a terrible disease.

This disease is called rabies. It affects the brain and spinal cord, which are vital for the body. The disease is caused by a virus - a very small organism, indistinguishable in a normal light microscope. Usually we associate rabies with dogs, because people mainly get this disease from them.

But rabies can affect all warm-blooded animals, including wolves, foxes, skunks, cows, cats, and even bats. However, most of these animals rarely transmit their disease to humans.

The owner may be unaware for some time that his dog has rabies, because the disease may not show up until 4-6 weeks later. The first sign is that the dog becomes quiet, loses its appetite and begins to have a fever. Then the dog begins to worry, saliva flows from the mouth, the animal growls, barks and tries to bite. Once these symptoms appear, the dog usually dies within 3-5 days. Since the virus is found in saliva, it is transmitted through a bite.

The worst thing is that if a person or animal becomes ill with rabies, then death is almost inevitable. Therefore, it is very important to prevent the disease and, if you are bitten by a dog, immediately consult a doctor. There is a serum that prevents the spread of the virus, but it must be administered no later than 3 days after the bite.

Where did the high-five greeting come from?

The word "past" used to be called a brush or palm. There was also a greeting expression "give me a span!", which was later reduced by one letter and transformed into "gimme five!". The shortened phrase supposedly gained particular popularity due to the similar English idioms "High five!" and "Give me five!".

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 ... >>

Universal wireless sensor node STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1 for the Internet of Things 26.01.2020

STMicroelectronics has released a new complete wireless device STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1, which is a set of various sensors, a battery and a wireless BLE interface in a matchbox-sized package.

STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1 not only allows you to measure many parameters - temperature, pressure, humidity, position in space, motion and sound, but also perform calculations thanks to the built-in ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller with DSP and FPU (STM32L4R9) with ultra-low power consumption. To interact with a smartphone, a special ST BLE Sensor application is provided.

STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1 (SensorTile.box) is a ready-to-use wearable and wireless IoT platform that will help you build applications based on various sensors. The plastic case houses the SensorTile.box board and battery, while the ST BLE Sensor app is installed on a smartphone and connected via Bluetooth. You can develop your applications based on sensor measurements with parameter setting and special functions in Expert Mode. In this way, you can create wireless IoT devices and gadgets, bypassing the stage of classical programming.

Using the STM32 ODE open environment debugging interface, which includes a package of functions for processing sensor data with the participation of AI and neural network libraries, you can develop more complex firmware for the STM32L4 microcontroller.

SensorTile.box includes the following high precision sensors:

Temperature sensor (STTS751);
6-axis inertial MEMS (LSM6DSOX);
Tri-axis accelerometers (LIS2DW12 and LIS3DHH);
3-axis magnetometer (LIS2MDL);
Pressure sensor / altimeter / (LPS22HH);
Microphone/audio sensor (MP23ABS1);
Humidity sensor (HTS221).

Features of STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1:

Ready to work "out of the box";
Step counter;
"Wireless babysitter" based on Cloud AI computer analyzer;
Barometer/environment monitoring;
Control of movement of goods;
Vibration control;
Inclinometer and compass;
Parameter recorder.
