What is the origin of Mr. Spock's greeting from the TV series Star Trek?

In the television series Star Trek, Leonard Nimoy's characteristic greeting of Mister Spock was the gesture of the inhabitants of the planet Vulcan - the index and middle fingers closed together, as well as the ring and little fingers with a gap between the middle and ring fingers. This greeting is nothing more than an ancient Jewish blessing, with which the priests of the Kohanim bless the people of Israel in the synagogues. Nimoy attended such a service as a child and was so impressed by the gesture that he decided to use it many years later on the show.

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 ... >>

Microcontrollers STM32 Value Line 31.05.2010

STMicroelectronics, one of the leading manufacturers of microcontrollers in the world, announced the start of production of a new 32-bit low-cost microcontroller that takes advantage of the industrial STM32 core and is designed for low-cost applications.

Microcontrollers of the STM32F100 ("Value line") family are intended for applications where the power of a 16-bit microcontroller is already insufficient, and the rich set of functionality of conventional 32-bit microcontrollers is redundant. The STM32F100 microcontroller line is based on a modern 24 MHz ARM Cortex-M3 core with peripherals optimized for use in typical applications where 16-bit microcontrollers were used.

The performance of this line at 24 MHz, coupled with zero latency access to the built-in flash memory, is 30 DMIPS, which is superior to most 16-bit microcontrollers. The line includes the following peripherals - up to 12 16-bit timers with advanced functions, high-speed 12-bit ADCs and DACs, CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) protocol included in the HDMI standard.

STM32F100 is not only a cheap and optimized Cortex-M3 microcontroller, but also access to a rich development environment for STM32 family microcontrollers, which includes free libraries for all peripherals, motor control and touch keyboards.
