How did Edison contribute to the invention of the electric chair?

Inventor Thomas Edison worked on electrification systems for American cities in the 1880s, but he could not transmit direct current beyond a few blocks. His competitor George Westinghouse, with Nikola Tesla as a consultant, made great strides using alternating current. In this "current war" Edison did not shun black PR - to demonstrate the dangers of alternating current, he sponsored the development of an electric execution chair, but Westinghouse's developments eventually won the market.

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

New image recognition processors from Toshiba 20.03.2013

Toshiba Corporation has introduced a new series of Visconti 3 devices from the Visconti family of image recognition processors. The first product of the new line, TMPV7528XBG, features multiple integrated processing cores, which significantly expands the scope of possible industrial applications.

The Visconti series was originally designed for use in auto tracking systems in the automotive industry. Devices based on these processors are able to recognize lanes on the road, cars, pedestrians, traffic lights and many other elements of the environment. The Visconti 2 and Visconti 3 processors contain built-in image processing accelerators, allowing them to detect pedestrians in real time with a high degree of reliability.

In addition, Visconti 3 chips should simplify software development, thanks to the built-in 2-core 32-bit ARM Cortex-A9 processor, the main purpose of which is to support applications that work with the image recognition system.

With the release of Visconti 3, Toshiba plans to expand its image recognition business from automotive solutions to machine tracking systems for industrial applications. In fiscal year 2015, Visconti's target sales of 2 million units. The first shipments of Visconti 3 will begin in April.
