Lawn mower controlled by smartphone

23.04.2014

For the next summer season, Robomow has prepared a new line of robotic lawn mowers. Models are distinguished by a unique feature - support for remote control using a smartphone.

Models RC304, RC306, RC302, (for small areas) and RS630, RS622, RS612 (for large lawns) are designed for use in gardens up to 3000 sq. m. and are distinguished by a unique feature - support for remote control using a smartphone.

In order to control the lawn mower while sitting in a summer lounger, it is enough to install a special Robomow The App app on your smartphone that supports iOS and Android. Using the application, the user can remotely change the settings of the lawnmower or change the schedule of its operation.

Thanks to the mobile application, the entire process of user interaction with an automated lawn mower fundamentally changes. The difference between the new Robomow models is that they are equipped with larger displays and enhanced functionality. Before using the lawn mower, the owner needs to go through a simple product registration procedure, and then complete the initial setup by following the step-by-step instructions available.

The Robomow The App smart app interface is intuitive and allows you to completely change or partially adjust the mower's schedule. At any time, the user can stop it, change the current settings, or even manually exclude from the working area the area where, for example, garden furniture has recently been placed.

Robomow The app works with iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPad mini, iPad 3 and iPod touch (5th generation) and devices running Android 4.3 and higher. The lawnmower communicates with the Bluetooth Smart interface, also known as Bluetooth Low Energy.

Robomow lawn mowers from the new line can be purchased at premium gardening equipment outlets. The prices recommended by the manufacturer for retail sale range from 1000 to 3500 USD.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Samsung Compute Express Link (CXL) 512 GB memory module 12.05.2022

Samsung has introduced the first 512 GB memory module that uses the Compute Express Link (CXL) interface.

The newly developed CXL memory has four times the capacity of the previous version. This allows the server to scale to tens of terabytes with one-fifth the system latency compared to the previous generation CXL module.

This is an important step towards the commercialization of CXL. This technology will provide extremely high memory capacity with low latency.

Samsung will also introduce an updated version of its open source software toolkit that makes it easier to deploy CXL memory in existing and new systems.

In recent years, the development of virtual reality, artificial intelligence algorithms and big data has generated incredible amounts of data. And traditional memory types are limited in scaling. The situation calls for an entirely new technology such as CXL.
