Where is the Boeing liner parked, where you can rent a room?

Not far from the entrance to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, there is a hostel that is nothing more than a decommissioned Boeing-747.

On board the Jumbohostel there are 27 rooms with 3 beds each with "on the floor" facilities, as well as a more expensive room in the former pilot's cockpit with private facilities inside the room.

What was the purpose of the first street light?

The first street traffic light, installed near the Houses of Parliament in London in 1868, was intended to control the flow of pedestrians.

During the day, signals were given using two wings (like a railway semaphore), and at night - through red and green gas lamps.

Said British prototype street light did not last long: shortly after installation, it exploded, killing a London policeman.

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 ... >>

AMD FirePro W4300 Graphics Card 03.12.2015

AMD introduced the AMD FirePro W4300 graphics card for computer-aided design (CAD) systems, which can be installed in both compact workstations (SFF) and tower cases. The AMD FirePro W4300 combines a GPU and 4GB of GDDR5 memory in a low-profile board, making it suitable for both SFF and full-size systems. Now organizations can simplify the process of managing their IT assets by choosing the same high-performance graphics solution for all types of workstations, the company stressed.

The AMD FirePro W4300 professional graphics card is optimized for the latest CAD applications including Autodesk AutoCAD, Inventor and Revit, Dassault Systemes Solidworks and CATIA, PTC Creo, Siemens NX and many more. Engineering professionals can work with large geometric models using GPU acceleration mechanisms for their projects, such as the new Order Independent Transparency (OIT) mode in Solidworks. Users have the opportunity to increase their productivity by visualizing workflows on 6 displays, as well as working with resolutions up to 4K and even 5K.

"We designed the AMD FirePro W4300 specifically for CAD," said Sean Burke, vice president and general manager of the Radeon Technologies Group at AMD. applications, as well as help visualize the design that has been developed, all of which can now be done without compromise on the latest energy-efficient small form factor workstations."

The AMD FirePro W4300 is powered by the AMD Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture to help improve performance and improve resource utilization.

Among the main features of the new card: 4 GB GDDR5 GPU memory for large projects - provide increased application responsiveness; four DisplayPort 1.2a interfaces (supporting up to 6 displays via an MST hub) and AMD FreeSync technology - enable the GPU to control the screen refresh rate, non-linear image refresh required for multimedia and entertainment applications and workflows; Certification for over 100 different applications - Guarantees improved performance (including popular design and engineering solutions, as well as multimedia and entertainment applications; AMD FirePro professional graphics drivers are updated several times a year, offering users new features and providing increased performance ).
