The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Mini air conditioner Sony Reon Pocket 5 09.05.2024

Summer is a time for relaxation and travel, but often the heat can turn this time into an unbearable torment.

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Anti-router Cyborg Unplug 14.09.2014

In today's digital era of wireless technologies, devices such as quadrocopters, as well as Google Glass glasses, along with other "smart" gadgets equipped with miniature cameras for discreet shooting, for some category of citizens are associated exclusively with espionage and illegal video recording.

The anti-router Cyborg Unplug will help you get rid of the obsessive feeling of persecution and the paranoia that develops against this background, which has every chance of becoming your personal guarantor of peace of mind. The task of the device is to automatically detect an unwanted device that has appeared in the coverage area of your Wi-Fi network, functionally focused on video shooting.

First, when scanning Wi-Fi bands with modules installed in wireless security cameras, smart glasses or drones, Cyborg Unplug identifies the type of device by its Mac address. If the electronics that have fallen into the range are banned at the direction of the owner of the router, then, as you might guess, the ability to access your wireless network is instantly blocked by the Mac address. Moreover, the specified procedure is carried out immediately before the trial connection attempt.

The presented anti-router is designed to monitor networks mainly in public places with a huge number of users in order to identify all potentially dangerous tracking devices with a working Wi-Fi module. When foreign equipment appears in the Cyborg Unplug coverage area, the device will notify its owner with a sound signal or a flashing LED. Everything else will happen without human intervention.

The author of the idea in the face of Julian Oliver provided two modes of Cyborg Unplug - "Territory Mode" and "All Out Mode". In the first option, the router with the prefix "anti" will filter out all devices located in the Wi-Fi network zone, allowing some of them to connect, and will begin to independently "catch" gadgets invading privacy. When "All Out Mode" is selected, the Cyborg Unplug blocking signal will include all equipment within range without exception.

The developers note that Cyborg Unplug does not interfere and does not, of course, affect the overall quality of the coverage. A flexible system of settings will even allow you to sort the found devices into categories and selectively block all Google Glass "smart" glasses without touching the same smartphones or laptops.

The cost of Cyborg Unplug, which will be available this year in two versions, will be $50 and $100, respectively. It is assumed that the main customers of Cyborg Unplug will not be individuals who can simply set a password for their home network, but the leadership of schools, restaurants and various kinds of enterprises. It is they who are interested in filtering, while leaving access to Wi-Fi open to everyone who wants to use the Internet for business or educational needs.
