Comments on the article

Consider some series of lamps for special purposes. The OSRAM FLUORA® LL series have a special radiation with a predominant blue and red color component, similar to the radiation that promotes photochemical processes. Thanks to this radiation, the growth of plants is noticeably accelerated. These lamps are designed for plant and aquarium lighting. Lamps of this series are made on the basis of a tube with a diameter of 26 mm. Specifications of these fluorescent lamps are given in table. 2.18.

Fluorescent lamps for lighting aquariums

PHILIPS produces a series of special lamps for aquariums - Aquarelle (Watercolor). The special emission composition of this fluorescent lamp is optimally suited to convey the beauty of fish and plants in freshwater aquariums.

The light of Aquarelle lamps is very close to natural in its spectral composition, which provides optimal conditions for photosynthesis and the formation of chlorophyll. An additional advantage of Aquarelle lamps is the exceptionally high energy density of radiation in the blue part of the spectrum. A well-balanced emission spectrum stimulates the formation of oxygen, and also has a beneficial effect on aquarium plants and fish and ensures good color rendering.

The lamps are designed for use on an AC mains supply with standard or high frequency gear. In table. 2.19 are given overall dimensions of lamps of this series, and in table. 2.20 - them specifications.

Depending on individual preferences, Aquarelle lamps can be used in conjunction with PHILIPS TL-D / 80 New Generation or TL-D / 90 De Luxe lamps to create different visual experiences without compromising the biological properties of the Aquarelle lamp radiation.

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 ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

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 ... >>

LeTV X1 door lock with 3D face ID 26.08.2022

A new product from LeEco's Smart ecosystem is capable of 3D face recognition, opening a door in seconds. It can adapt to different facial poses even with glasses or hairstyle changes. X1 smart door lock uses artificial intelligence and 3D face recognition technology to accurately identify faces.

The identification technology is secure enough to prevent penetration through face masks, photos and videos. X3 1D smart door lock can generate detailed information in different situations, both day and night. 3D infrared night vision with optional light recognition is a key feature of the new door lock.

It also features a 1080p HD screen, 160 degree wide viewing angle and remote video intercom. The smart door lock can also take pictures and offers a cloud storage option. There are eight ways to unlock the doors and ten security measures.

The LeTV Smart Door Lock X1 has a 4200 mAh battery, which ensures the wide use of the gadget. The product is offered at a starting price of 1699 yuan (about $247).

This product is not LeEco's first smart door lock and builds on the security and safety features of its predecessors. However, there are some doubts about the fidelity of the device in terms of accuracy.
