Electric scooter Honda Striemo

22.06.2022

Honda launched a new line of business and created Striemo, which will focus on micromobility solutions. We are talking about short trips to work, to the suburbs or on campus.

Striemo has already prepared for the release of its first device - the self-balancing electric scooter of the same name. It has 3 wheels and a proprietary balance support system. According to the manufacturer, the device provides a stable ride over the entire range of speeds - from the minimum, comparable to slow walking, to the maximum, as when riding a bicycle.

The Striemo electric scooter weighs 20 kg and has a load capacity of up to 120 kg. The availability of three speed modes with a maximum speed of 6 km/h, 15 km/h and 25 km/h is reported. The power reserve is up to 30 km on a full battery charge, and charging takes 3,5 hours. The Striemo electric scooter can be folded and rolled on two rear wheels. The company is working on a companion app.

The novelty will go on sale in Japan before the end of this year, and in Europe and the US - in 2023. The company has already begun accepting pre-orders in Japan for the first limited edition of 300 scooters priced at $1900.

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 ... >>

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, ... >>

The impact of robot speech on people's trust in him 10.10.2021

Oddly enough, trust is a very important aspect of human interaction with AI. At the same time, trust as a phenomenon is rather complicated and depends on both internal psychological factors and external ones.

Psychological theories describe the capacity for trust either as a stable trait of a person formed early in his life, or as a kind of state of mind that is influenced by numerous cognitive, emotional and social factors later in life. Trust is usually described by two main characteristics: a positive attitude towards an object and a willingness to be vulnerable, accepting the possible risks associated with trusting another.

Scientists from the University of Palermo conducted an experiment in which they studied the effect of robot speech on users' trust in it. The findings have so far been published in the arXiv preprint database. It is interesting that the robot that participated in the study did not speak to people, but aloud to itself, that is, it reproduced some analogue of a person’s internal dialogue. The study also involved 27 people: each was asked to fill out the same questionnaire twice - before interacting with the robot and after.

According to the volunteers, they began to trust the car more after interacting with it. In addition, the robot's self-talk reinforced this "feeling" by making it psychologically human-like and explaining its actions and intentions to humans. This approach, according to the authors, can be useful in the development of the relationship between people and machines, and hence in their increasingly serious introduction into our lives. The scientists' next step is a large-scale study involving more participants.
