LG CordZero HOM-BOT Turbo+ AR Robot Vacuum Cleaner

27.12.2015

At the upcoming CES Consumer Electronics Show, LG Electronics (LG) will introduce an updated line of CordZero cordless vacuum cleaners. It is led by the HOM-BOT Turbo+, which according to the manufacturer is the industry's first robot vacuum cleaner with augmented reality support.

The Home-Joy interface allows the user to give tasks to the vacuum cleaner using the camera of any smartphone, showing places where it is necessary to clean especially carefully. It is enough to poke a finger on one or another part of the image of the room so that HOM-BOT Turbo + understands the task and starts cleaning.

The robot’s equipment includes Triple Eye cameras that record so that the vacuum cleaner knows where it has already collected garbage. The front camera is also used for Home-View and Home-Guard functions. The Home-View function transmits a real-time image to a smartphone, allowing you to control the vacuum cleaner remotely. And the Home-Guard function transmits an image if the vacuum cleaner has noticed movement in the room, that is, it gives the device the capabilities of a security system.

HOM-BOT Turbo+ navigation tasks are assigned to a dual-core processor and Robonavi software, which determines the best routes to avoid obstacles.

In addition, CordZero Canister, 2-in-1 CordZero HandStick and CordZero Bedding Cleaner models will be shown.

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 ... >>

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, ... >>

Graphene filter traps everything but water 06.02.2012

Graphene, this material one carbon atom thick, added another, completely unexpected, to the long list of its qualities - it turned out to be impervious to all gases and liquids, with the exception of water, which passes through it, simply not noticing the barrier.

This discovery was reported by the laboratory of Professor Andre Game from the University of Manchester. In this case, we are not talking about pure graphene, but its derivative - graphene oxide. It is a graphene film coated with other molecules, such as OH- hydroxyl groups. From such films, by laying them one on top of the other, the researchers created a layered material. It is hundreds of times thinner than a human hair, but retains graphene strength and elasticity and is easy to handle. If a metal container is covered with such a membrane, it will not let in any liquid or gas, including helium, which penetrates even through millimeter-thick glass.

The fact that the graphene membrane turned out to be permeable to water and water vapor came as a complete surprise to the researchers. The answer turned out to be tricky - it turned out that graphene oxide films are arranged in such a way that there is a free space between them, corresponding to the size of a water molecule. With other molecules, this trick does not work: at low humidity, the film shrinks, leaving no space for passage, and at normal humidity, this space is clogged with water molecules, therefore, in both cases, the membrane is impermeable.

“For vodka, such a membrane is an ideal distiller,” says the main author of the article, Raul Nair. “Just for fun, they tried to filter it through a film. Each time the drink became stronger and stronger. “I never cease to be amazed at graphene,” says Andre Geim. - Materials just can't behave any weirder. We can only guess what else graphene has in store for us.
