Wirepas Pino Automated Wireless Network for IoT

25.10.2014

The Internet of Things market is growing rapidly. The Finnish company Wirepas, in the wake of such trends, has introduced Wirepas Pino, the first fully automatic multi-hop wireless IoT network designed for sensor networks and machine-to-machine communication.

It is reported that the Wirepas Pino stack is designed from scratch and is designed for simplified networking: according to the developers, the network can take on functions that are very difficult to implement with centralized management. Thanks to this, all Pino nodes have the opportunity to act independently and more efficiently.

Pino does not require configuration, making it easier to deploy, grow, and maintain the network. It is only necessary to provide power to the nodes and gateways, after which the network begins to work, while adapting to the emerging changes. Thanks to unlimited scalability, it is possible to create networks with a high density of nodes, covering large areas. All nodes, regardless of their role, incl. routers are capable of running on batteries for years.

Among the advantages of the network, the efficient use of the time and frequency domains, greater reliability and high energy efficiency are mentioned.

The Pino stack is completely independent of the hardware and can be used by a wide range of applications. It makes it possible to use any chipset for the 2,4 GHz bands, as well as less than 1 GHz. This allows you to deploy networks both indoors and across the city.

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Controlling objects using air currents 04.05.2024

The development of robotics continues to open up new prospects for us in the field of automation and control of various objects. Recently, Finnish scientists presented an innovative approach to controlling humanoid robots using air currents. This method promises to revolutionize the way objects are manipulated and open new horizons in the field of robotics. The idea of ​​controlling objects using air currents is not new, but until recently, implementing such concepts remained a challenge. Finnish researchers have developed an innovative method that allows robots to manipulate objects using special air jets as "air fingers". The air flow control algorithm, developed by a team of specialists, is based on a thorough study of the movement of objects in the air flow. The air jet control system, carried out using special motors, allows you to direct objects without resorting to physical ... >>

Purebred dogs get sick no more often than purebred dogs 03.05.2024

Caring for the health of our pets is an important aspect of the life of every dog ​​owner. However, there is a common assumption that purebred dogs are more susceptible to diseases compared to mixed dogs. New research led by researchers at the Texas School of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences brings new perspective to this question. A study conducted by the Dog Aging Project (DAP) of more than 27 companion dogs found that purebred and mixed dogs were generally equally likely to experience various diseases. Although some breeds may be more susceptible to certain diseases, the overall diagnosis rate is virtually the same between both groups. The Dog Aging Project's chief veterinarian, Dr. Keith Creevy, notes that there are several well-known diseases that are more common in certain breeds of dogs, which supports the notion that purebred dogs are more susceptible to disease. ... >>

Artificial intelligence received copyright 02.03.2023

The United States Copyright Office (USCO) has made a decision on a comic created using the Midjourney neural network. Representatives of the department said that the copyright of the artist Kris Kashtanova on the comic "Dawn of the Dawn" (Zarya of the Dawn) applies only to the part of the book that the writer wrote and designed herself. The images generated by Midjourney are owned by AI.

The Copyright Office intends to reissue the book registration, where it excludes images that are not the product of human authorship. The agency accepted that Kashtanova "is the author of the text of the work, as well as the selection, coordination and organization of textual and visual elements." However, not all images presented in the comic "are the product of human authorship."

In September, photographer Chris Kashtanova announced that she had received the copyright for the Dawn of Dawn comic book, which she wrote with the help of Midjourney. However, a few months later, USCO withdrew its decision, emphasizing that Kashtanova's work with AI had been misinterpreted earlier.

"We must defend copyright, even if we use artificial intelligence in our work," the artist emphasized.

The Dawn of Dawn comic isn't the only AI co-authored work that caused controversy. So Ammaar Reshi, an employee of the fintech company Brex, created the children's book Alice and Sparkle using artificial intelligence. When the book went on sale, Reshi faced a flurry of criticism on social media and even death threats.
