Video recorder for mobile phones

18.06.2004

Mitsubishi Corporation Division Mitsubishi Plastics has released the Pyramid video recorder, designed to record television programs on SD or miniSD memory cards for playback on mobile phones or PDAs.

The dimensions of the Pyrami recorder are 115x115x70 mm, it supports SD and miniSD memory cards. The recorder connects to a TV or VCR with a cable and can record up to two hours of video on a 128 Mbit memory card.

Ten models of mobile phones with support for video viewing and SD and miniSD memory cards are currently available in the Japanese market, eight are offered by NTT DoCoMo (N900i, F900i, SH900i, P900i, P2102V, F2102V, N505iS and F505i) and two models by Vodafone (J-SH53 and V601SH). The cost of the Pyramid recorder is 20000 yen (approximately $185).

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, ... >>

Blueberries help fight Alzheimer's 21.03.2016

Scientists from the University of Cincinnati (USA) have proven that blueberries, due to their high content of antioxidants, help fight cognitive impairments characteristic of Alzheimer's disease and various dementias.

Two experiments were carried out. The first involved 47 people aged 68 years and older who had mild cognitive impairment and were at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. All subjects were divided into two groups: in one group, patients received blueberry powder, in the other - a placebo. After 16 weeks, improvement in cognitive function and increased brain activity (by MRI) was observed in subjects who took blueberry powder.

The second experiment involved 94 people aged 62 to 80 years with a decrease in memory in their own words (cognitive impairments were not diagnosed). Participants were divided into four groups taking blueberry powder, fish oil, fish oil along with blueberry powder and placebo, respectively. In the end, the scientists observed a slight improvement in memory in people who took blueberry powder and fish oil separately, but the difference was not as significant as in the first experiment.

The researchers concluded that blueberries may be particularly beneficial for diagnosed cognitive impairment, but may not be as significant for minor memory problems in the context of generally normal cognitive development. In the future, research will be conducted in the younger age group - from 50 to 65 years.
