Wearable VHF radio stations are widely used by radio amateurs for organizing communications on hikes, competitions, etc. But there are situations when it is inconvenient to constantly hold the radio station in your hands. In such cases, radio amateurs connect a computer multimedia headset with a microphone and a telephone to it, and the radio station itself is placed, for example, in a pocket.

A "Hand free" headset with a built-in response button (tangent) from a cell phone can be very convenient to use. The author used the NKI 6310 headset, which, in terms of its electrical parameters, is suitable for collaboration with a portable radio station. The headset has small dimensions, and it includes an electret microphone, an electromagnetic telephone and a button with normally open contacts. On fig. 1 shows its scheme, adapted to work with the radio station "Standart-C710".

The regular plug, designed for connection to a cell phone, with an oxide capacitor built into it, was removed and instead of it, two "Mini-Jack" plugs were mounted - one with a diameter of 3,5 mm (XP1) for a telephone, and the second - with a diameter of 2,5 mm (XP2) for microphone. The diagram shows the colors of the wires that are used in a particular instance of the headset. For other headsets, these colors may differ from those indicated. To increase the sensitivity of the microphone, the resistor R1 can be removed or replaced with a resistor with a higher resistance, but it should be checked whether the radio station will steadily switch to transmit mode (TX) when the SB1 button is pressed.

On fig. 2 shows the appearance of the modified headset.

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 ... >>

Brain pacemakers for Olympic runners 10.08.2016

Halo Neuroscience reported on working with three American track and field athletes during training for the Rio Olympics. Headphones called Halo Sport, according to the company, stimulate the brain during training, sending energy impulses to the athlete's brain and thereby charging it.

Halo Neuroscience, which has already partnered with the North American Ski Team, explains that these headphones help create brain quasi-plasticity. In other words, the pulsations of energy increase the excitability of motor neurons, which allows for stronger neural connections, and thus the motor cortex sends stronger and more synchronous signals to the muscles, enhancing the athlete's motor learning, making each exercise more effective.

A study done by the company itself showed that skiers who used the system before had a 13% increase in their propulsion compared to a control group who did not have headphones. True, only three studies were conducted on rather small groups, 7, 10 and 23 athletes. Each study showed an improvement in their performance when using headphones.

It is clear that such statements should be taken with a certain degree of skepticism, but if neurostimulation really helps physical training, then this opens up very interesting opportunities for the further development of sports, and just everyday fitness. True, how to identify such stimulants is completely incomprehensible, because no blood test will help here.
