Electronic system for simultaneous interpretation into the sign language of the deaf and dumb

27.05.2003

The Institute of Computer Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as a result of the development of intelligent command recognition technologies, created a computer system for simultaneous translation into sign language. It is intended for deaf children.

According to the project manager, Professor Gao Wen, this system has no analogues in the world and is capable of recognizing over 5 gestures. The words spoken by the operator are translated into sign language by the computer and displayed on the monitor. Now deaf and dumb TV viewers will be able to "listen" to the news.

The system can also be used for teaching sign language, as an electronic dictionary or as a tour guide.

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, ... >>

Clothes care cabinet LG Styler 12.01.2024

LG is introducing its latest product, a clothing care device called the LG Styler. It's not just a closet; It is a smart device that provides the ability to freshen, dry and iron your clothes. With a built-in handheld steamer and unique care features, LG Styler raises the standard for caring for your clothes.

LG Styler's smart features and innovative technology make it an essential asset for those who value excellence and innovation in their daily wardrobe routine.

The hand-held steamer, integrated into the cabinet body, easily smooths out creases in various fabrics, ensuring a flawless look for your clothes. The device also features a moving hanger system and improved dust removal, deodorization and drying capabilities, making the LG Styler an essential household item.

However, the main feature of this device is LG's Dual TrueSteam technology. This innovative system uses two heating elements to boil water, allowing you to more precisely control the volume and strength of the steam jet. This means that only one of the heaters can be used to care for delicate fabrics.

In addition, LG Dual TrueSteam provides germ control, destroying them with at least 99,9% efficiency, and also protects against 11 types of harmful bacteria. The built-in ventilation system ensures automatic air circulation throughout the room, and the room dehumidification function adds additional functionality to this innovative device.
