Sensorwake Trio wakes you up with smell, light and sound

16.06.2018

The KickStarter website raised funds for the release of an unusual alarm clock. The Sensorwake Trio wakes you up with smell, light and sound.

In order for the alarm clock to wake up with a smell, special cartridges are inserted into it. The developers emphasize that the cartridges are dry and easy to handle. One is enough for 30 days (subject to one wake-up call per day). It will be possible to choose the smell of coffee, the sea coast, mint, cookies, fresh grass and other aromas. A minute after the activation of the evaporator, the backlight turns on, and a minute later - a "motivating melody" (five pieces are offered to choose from).

Sensorwake Trio dimensions are approximately 10 x 10 x 12,5 cm. The device is powered by an AC adapter. In the event of a power outage, a backup battery provides operation.

For one device with two cartridges, fundraisers are asked for $79. Six cartridges cost $15, half the suggested retail price. Other lots available. Shipping should start in November of this year.

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, ... >>

Motorola rollable smartphone 11.05.2022

Motorola has begun designing an ambitious device in an original form factor. A distinctive feature of the novelty will be a flexible display, which is pulled out of a kind of "roll" hidden in the body of a familiar monoblock - but not sideways, but upwards.

Unlike the previously shown OPPO X 2021 or LG Rollable concept phones, the novelty, codenamed Felix, according to insiders, will be able to stretch not in width, but in height. This will combine such characteristics of the device as a large screen area and compact dimensions. It is reported that the rolled design will allow hiding up to a third of the matrix in the case, due to which, when folded, the device will be practically indistinguishable from conventional models.

It is expected that when used in landscape mode, the gadget will be able to use the split display feature introduced in Android 12. The company is already testing the new technology on a modified Edge 30 Pro.

The possible date for the announcement of the Motorola concept smartphone is within a year.
