Tablet with built-in DLP projector

01.07.2013

Today, mobile devices with a built-in projector running Android OS, like the Samsung Galaxy Beam smartphone, are almost never found on the market. Smart Devices launches SmartQ U7 tablets with built-in projectors. Now they are being sold in the US.

The SmartQ U7 features a 7-inch 1024 x 600 pixel display, a dual-core TI OMAP 4 processor, 1GB RAM, and two 2MP cameras.

Two models are available for order: SmartQ U7 and SmartQ U7H. The difference between them is in the processor and the size of the flash drive. Thus, the SmartQ U7 model is equipped with a TI OMAP4430 processor (1 GHz) and 8 GB of internal memory, and the SmartQ U7H is equipped with a TI OMAP4460 processor (1,5 GHz) and an internal flash memory of 16 GB.

The tablet is also equipped with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless modules. There is a slot for microSD memory cards, as well as mini-HDMI and micro-USB ports. The OS used is Android 4.1. The brightness of the built-in DLP projector is 35 lumens. The projected image is up to 50 inches diagonal with a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels. Claimed lifetime of the light source is 20 hours.

The dimensions of the tablets are 200,3 x 116,2 x 11,0-14,4 mm, weight - 360 g. The price of the SmartQ U7 and SmartQ U7H models is 300 and 350 dollars, respectively.

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 ... >>

Mini air conditioner Sony Reon Pocket 5 09.05.2024

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, ... >>

Electric car climbs faster 06.07.2015

Pikes Peak International Hill Climb (PPIHC) has been held annually on Pikes Peak in the US state of Colorado for nearly a hundred years now. Various classes of cars, motorcycles, trucks and ATVs participate in PPIHC competitions, and the number of participants reaches 150.

This year, 72 cars and 62 motorcycles from 10 countries took part in the Race to the Clouds, as its participants informally call it. The first place was taken by the American driver Rhys Millen, who did not reach the record speed, but his victory was marked by two events that occurred for the first time in the history of the PPIHC. Firstly, he won the race driving an all-electric car, and secondly, this car was made in Latvia.

The Latvian company Drive eO, led by young engineer Khristaps Dambis, has prepared a PP03 car specially for racing, which is able to cope with a mountain slope and at the same time develop power up to 1368 hp. In combination with the weight of the car - 1200 kg - this made it possible for the rider to cover the track at speeds up to 260 km / h in 9:07.222. However, even this speed was not enough to break the absolute race record set in 2013 on the "regular" Peugeot 208 - 156 mandatory turns in 8:13.878. Dambis explained this by the significant weight of the batteries and promised that the problem would be solved in a few years.

This can be trusted, since the second place in the race was taken by the car, also electric and also international. The Japanese racer Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima, who has been successfully participating in these competitions for a long time, led the e-Runner electric car to the finish line for 9.32.401. The author of the "e-runner" was the Croatian company Rimac, which we wrote about earlier. Her 1088 hp Rimac Concept_One car. is the world's fastest commercially produced electric vehicle.
