Toshiba Camileo X-Sports action camera

14.09.2013

Toshiba Corporation has announced a compact Camileo X-Sports camcorder in a rugged housing, designed specifically for athletes, thrill-seekers and outdoor enthusiasts.

The device is equipped with a 12-megapixel CMOS sensor, 2-inch display, wide-angle lens, 10x digital zoom, Wi-Fi wireless adapter with support for 802.11 b/g/n, microUSB ports, Mini HDMI and microSD card slot. Dimensions are 73x49,5x29,5 mm, weight - 94 g.

The camcorder can withstand drops from a height of up to one and a half meters. A special sealed case allows you to use the camera underwater at a depth of up to 60 meters. Full HD video recording (1920x1080 pixels) with a frequency of 30 or 60 frames per second is supported: in the first case, the battery lasts for an hour and a half, in the second - for more than two hours.

You can control the operation of Camileo X-Sports using a smartphone or tablet, as well as a remote control in the form of a wristwatch, which is not afraid of shocks and diving under water to a depth of one and a half meters. Special mounts allow you to mount the camcorder on a bicycle handlebar, helmet, etc.

Sales of new items will begin before the end of the year, the price is 250 euros.

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, ... >>

Stress suppresses fear 22.05.2020

It hardly needs to be argued that stress and fear are interconnected, but usually it seems to us that they mutually reinforce each other: we are scared and stressed, and because of stress, we become even more afraid.

Researchers from the University of Konstanz found that there are nuances in the relationship between stress and fear. Participants in a psychological experiment were given to read an article about some dubious substance. Before and after the article, they were asked their opinion about this substance - how much they fear to encounter it, whether they will avoid it, and, most importantly, whether they are going to warn other people.

Half of the subjects were stressed before talking about the suspect substance and reading the article: they were asked to give a speech in front of an audience or solve a complex arithmetic problem in their head, again in front of a large audience. If a person does not regularly give speeches and does not solve arithmetic problems in public, then both should cause him serious stress. The level of stress was assessed by the stress hormone cortisol, the level of which rises in stressful situations.

The stressed participants in the experiment did not perceive the article about the dangerous substance too sharply and were not going to share the information received with anyone. Translated to more current realities: if a stressed person learns something about new mutations in the coronavirus that make him even more infectious, then this news will scare him to a lesser extent than if he was not stressed, and share news about the coronavirus he will also not be very active.

This decrease in fear corresponded precisely to the hormonal response to stress. In fact, not always, when we feel stress, the body responds to it with physiological changes. And those participants in the experiment who, according to them, felt stressed (but they did not have stress hormones), were more frightened of new information about a dangerous substance and were more ready to spread it among other people.
