What goalkeeper has scored more goals in his career than many outfield players?

Some football goalkeepers help their team not only keep a clean sheet but also score goals by taking penalties and free kicks. Especially often this style of play is practiced by South American goalkeepers. Brazilian Rogerio Seni has been the most successful in the history of football, scoring over 100 goals. The extravagant goalkeeper from Paraguay, Jose Luis Chilavert, is also widely known. He scored 62 goals, but remains the only goalkeeper to score a hat-trick in one match.

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 ... >>

AI was taught to distinguish between the eyes of the living and the dead 28.07.2018

Researchers at the Warsaw University of Technology have developed a machine learning algorithm capable of distinguishing between the irises of living and dead people with 99% accuracy.

Scientists trained artificial intelligence using a database of irises of people who died at different times, as well as samples of the irises of hundreds of living people.

The researchers then made the system interact with eye images that the algorithm had not been trained on.

The eyes of dead people are usually held by retractors, so the university staff had to cut out everything except the irises themselves from the sample images so as not to mislead the algorithm. The Polish researchers had to photograph living irises with the same camera used to shoot the eyes of corpses so that technical differences would not spoil the result.

There is a catch in this approach: the algorithm is only able to detect a dead eye if its owner has died 16 or more hours ago - the difference is insignificant in the first few hours. Theoretically, an attacker could kill someone, open the victim's eye and unlock their smartphone. However, thanks to the system, the killer would at least have to hurry.
