Beosound Balance wireless speaker

05.03.2020

The legendary Danish Hi-End brand - Bang & Olufsen - has officially unveiled the new Beosound Balance wireless speaker. The unit delivers carefully controlled sound beams for crisp front sound and rich rear sound amplification, resulting in impressively powerful acoustic performance out of the box.

The design includes seven speakers at once: two 5,25-inch subwoofers, four full-range radiators (a pair of 2- and 3-inch ones) and one 3/4-inch tweeter. The reproducible frequency range is from 33 Hz to 23 kHz. Beosound Balance is able to actively adapt playback settings to compensate for sound depending on the surrounding acoustic environment.

The price of the novelty is 2000 euros.

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 ... >>

Virtualization of network functions on a 64-bit single-chip ARM system 09.10.2014

AMD introduced its first network function virtualization (NFV) solution based on a 64-bit single-chip ARM system and announced the start of shipping test samples to customers. The demo version of the NFV solution is built on a 64-bit AMD Embedded R-series single-chip ARM system codenamed Hierofalcon. Today, it is supported by technologies from two key partners - Aricent for the network software stack and Mentor Graphics for embedded Linux products and tools, AMD told CNews. Overall, the NFV solution is designed to help network and telecommunications service providers with a fully virtualized communications infrastructure simplify deployment and management while reducing costs.

Among the capabilities of the ARM NFV solution: virtualization of the data package functionality on the network and service gateway, as well as the mobility management node. In addition to hardware virtualization, real-time traffic migration between the AMD Embedded R-series single-chip ARM system and the second generation of AMD R-series x86 APUs is also possible. AMD's new ARM NFV solution will appeal to telecommunications network infrastructure providers interested in building flexible software-defined networking (SDN) to manage network services with customizable hardware, streamline workflows, and reduce costs, the company said.

NFV allows you to get rid of numerous network equipment, such as routers and gateways, by moving functionality from dedicated hardware devices to underlying servers. Thanks to NFV, most of the tasks solved today using specialized devices can be transferred to software running universal hardware. The result is a fully virtualized communications infrastructure that is easy to deploy and manage for network and telecommunications service providers, including virtual servers, networks and storage systems. AMD creates conditions for both new and existing providers to develop and implement NFV infrastructure on both x86 and ARM architectures, which fully meets their requirements for performance, cost and an integrated approach, the company emphasized.

"From networks to data centers, the telecommunications landscape is rapidly changing with the emergence of many new devices and methods for transmitting video, images and data that require more efficient networking solutions," said Scott Eylor, vice president and general manager, Embedded Solutions, AMD. - The demo version of our first NFV solution on a single-chip 64-bit ARM system is another step forward in our work on products based on ARM and x86 architectures, offering OEM partners and telecom providers new opportunities to create, deploy and network service management.
