Directory / Personal transport: land, water, air

A board, two tubes from car or motorcycle tires and a piece of canvas - that's all that is required to build a lightweight homemade raft boat. Its design (see fig.) is so simple that it does not require detailed explanations. But, having made such a boat, you can travel wherever you want, go fishing and even participate in "sea battles".

Just remember that, like any simplified structure, a raft-boat requires caution. Therefore, take a life buoy (another camera) with you and try not to sail far from the coast.

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 ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Sony camera puts the image right in your eyes 24.03.2023

Sony Electronics has announced a new camera for the visually impaired.

Sony Electronics and QD Laser have announced a new joint product - the DSC-HX99RNV kit. It will help visually impaired people to see better through the camera. That is, it will make photography more accessible to them.

The kit includes the DSC-HX99 compact travel camera from Sony and the RETISSA NEOVIEWER viewfinder from QD Laser, which uses the technology of laser image projection onto the retina of the eye. This will allow the user to better see the environment, take photos and record videos.

In the US, the kit will be available for $600 via Sony's website in early summer 2023. The quantity of goods will be limited.

Sony also plans to partner with Japanese and American schools to help people with low vision.
