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 ... >>

Student Chromebook CTL H4 03.07.2015

CTL's range of Chromebooks, which until recently consisted of three models (NL6, J2 and J4), has been replenished with a new product called H4. The premiere of the device, valued at $200, took place at the conference of the International Society for the Development of Technologies in Education (ISTE 2015).

The H4 features a large amount of RAM (4 GB), a short boot time (within eight seconds), a small weight (about a kilogram) and a durable waterproof case that can withstand a fall from a height of 70 cm without consequences.

The product is based on the Rockchip RK3288 single-chip system, which incorporates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A12 CPU with a frequency of up to 1,8 GHz and a Mali-T624 GPU. Built-in flash memory is 16 GB, diagonal and display resolution - 11,6 inches and 1366 x 768 pixels, respectively.

CTL H4 is endowed with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 adapters, two USB ports, an HDMI video output, two speakers and a microSD memory card slot, a webcam and a microphone. Claimed maximum battery life - 10 hours.

Along with the announcement of the H4, CTL introduced a used Chromebook credit program: by handing over such a device to the manufacturer, the customer can count on a $25 discount when buying a new one.
