Portable camera with support for SD memory cards

10.01.2004

Deja View has released a portable camera Camwear Model 100 with support for Toshiba NAND Flash SD memory cards.

A compact digital camera is attached to clothes and constantly takes a panorama with a viewing angle of 60 degrees and saves it to the buffer. By pressing the record button, the last 30 seconds of video or audio are recorded to the removable storage. Video is saved at 320x240 pixel resolution in MPEG-4 30 frames per second format and saved to an SD memory card.

The Camwear Model 100 costs $400 and comes with a 64MB memory card, up to 512MB memory cards, and a 2000mAh Li-Ion battery. Phone-powder box Panasonic has released a mobile phone exclusively for ladies: the device at first glance strongly resembles an ordinary powder box.

The model was named G70 and, of course, does not pretend to be the most functional phone - there is not even support for the popular MMS service. But there is a function specifically for the fair sex: as soon as the backlight turns off, the screen turns into a mirror.

Note the characteristics of the G70: work in networks GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz; support for EMS, SMS and GRPS; polyphony for 16 voices; screen with a resolution of 128x96; talk time - 3...5 hours, standby time - up to 200 hours; dimensions - 88x60x27 mm.

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, ... >>

Lenmar Helix battery will not let the phone run out of power 30.04.2013

Summer is the time for trips to nature, away from civilization, but few people dare to leave their cell phones and other mobile devices at home. Then you really need to take care of recharging them away from electrical networks. A great option is to purchase a pocket battery, such as the Lenmar Helix.

Lenmar Helix is a good solution to the problem of constantly running out of Android gadgets, as well as a good choice for those who constantly forget to put their devices on recharging. It has a 11000 mAh rechargeable battery inside, while the average cell phone battery capacity is 1700 mAh. It is easy to calculate how many times you can recharge your mobile phone.

The obvious advantage of the Lenmar Helix battery is not only a significant capacity, but also the presence of three USB ports at once to connect the appropriate number of devices. In order to always be aware of the battery charge level, an LED indication is provided. Replenishing the energy reserve in Lenmar Helix is not difficult at all - you just need to connect it to a source of electricity: it can be either a home outlet or a car cigarette lighter. The connection is made using a microUSB-USB cable. Full recharge time - 8 hours.

The Lenmar Helix is not as expensive as one would expect from a portable battery with such a solid capacity. Its price is 100 US dollars.
