Next generation Mirasol displays from Qualcomm

02.06.2013

Qualcomm presented the latest achievements in the development of Mirasol screens. Mirasol panels use the technology of interferometric modulation IMOD (Interferometric MODulation), the essence of which is the formation of a color image by the interference of light waves. Such screens allow you to display a color picture and demonstrate animation.

Qualcomm showed at the SID 2013 event a 1,6-inch Mirasol screen with a resolution of 600x600 pixels. These panels in the future can be used in "smart" watches.

In addition, a new generation Mirasol screen with a diagonal of 5,1 inches and a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels (577 pixels per inch) was demonstrated. This development is designed primarily for pocket readers and smartphones.

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, ... >>

GIS is useful for politicians 03.02.2014

The young American company iPrecinct, which has developed a mobile application for managing non-profit initiatives, has signed a cooperation agreement with the largest developer and supplier of geographic information systems - ESRI.

iPrecinct hopes that the leader in GIS will help develop innovative, unprecedentedly effective systems for monitoring and managing political space. The integration of a mobile system for managing the work of political activists with the latest systems for collecting and processing geodata has a huge potential.

In order to understand the prospects of such work, it is necessary to take a closer look at the work of iPrecinct. The company's specialists have developed a special mobile application that helps organize the work of all parts of the political movement. In the struggle for political influence, it is very important to monitor the effect of political advertising in real time, as well as the work of volunteers, party members and other participants in the political movement.

A special iPrecinct application processes a large amount of information that is usually entered into Excel documents. Thanks to iPrecinct, the time-consuming data processing process is simplified as much as possible. The iPrecinct mobile app performs many functions, such as choosing the best routes for door-to-door volunteers. The system also allows you to study the reaction of the electorate in real time, detect dishonest work of political activists, etc.

The data received from the very "grassroots" is immediately transferred from mobile devices to the database of the political movement. This allows you to monitor the results of the campaign and, if necessary, take immediate action to change the strategy or regroup forces.

The partnership with ESRI will allow iPrecinct to use advanced tools for collecting and processing geospatial data to guide the political process. In the future, such systems will provide instant feedback between the electorate and the leadership of political parties, which is a new stage in the development of democratic institutions.
