Motorola have been patented a solar battery for GSM

The Giant Motorola have been patented technology that will make possible overcharging the battery of mobile phone by solar cells placed in the LCD screen.

The idea is not new, but in its patent the company claims that is solved the problem of absorption of sufficient light from the cells so the battery can load.

If Motorola successfully run a similar product on the market, then will have no need for recharging the battery of the cell phone through a separate transformer, which plugs into electrical outlets. The phone will always be loaded.

The company believes that the solar cells in the LCD screen of the phone will be able to use over 75 percent of the coming to them light through holestical crystals and polymers.

Will be fall away the use of the metallic reflector, used in the LCD’s for lighting the screen. The reflector reduces the amount light that reaches the solar cells to less than 6 percent, and this is insufficient for recharging the battery.

While technology related to this problem have been patented before, the invention of Motorola is better from commercial point of view.

At present, solar cells are used to power very low energy devices, such as calculators.

Scientists have created a female robot patient

Scientists from the Institute of Medicine of the University of Gifu city (Japan) have created the first robot patient to answer questions on how she feels and moves her body so that stress symptoms of her illness.

The purpose of the invention is to give the medical students experience "from first hand" with rare illness states. When the robot "suffers" from myasthenia gravis – nerve-muscle disease which is difficult to diagnose, leading to muscle weakness and fatigue - she says to the doctor that her eyelids are weigh and change the utterance of her face, slowly leave her shoulders and crouch forward.

For the creators of development has been difficult to make the shoulder joints and a shovels of the robot to move as a human, said Yudzo Takahashi. He says that in the future the scientists want to put in the female robot more illness symptoms and to create realistic training manual.

Given that medical students and the trainee-doctors are quick pass training in various specialties, universal robot-patient may show a wider range of conditions and diseases, rather than offer a small hospital for a month.

Chinese supercomputer make 100 trillion operations per second

In China have been created supercomputer which is able to perform 100 trillion operations per second and with its calculative power it enter into ten fastest computers in the world. The supercomputer have the name "Shuguan-5000" and is developed jointly by the Institute of computing equipment to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the company Shuguan.

The peak computing power of “Shuguan-5000” reaches 230 teraflops. Based on the method LINPACK, adopted to measuring the performance of the supercomputers productivity of the supecomputer is 160 trillion operations per second.

China became the second country after the U.S. managed to create such supercomputer which output exceed 100 teraflops.

In the beginning of 2008 year China announced the creation of its own supecomputer, with a computing power which reaches one trillion operations per second. Then the Chinese developers have expressed their intention that to end of the year they want to create a computer which computing power to reach 100 teraflops. At the end of August 2008 they reported that in 2010 based on its own processors Godson 3 will create a power supercomputer with power of one fiveflop.

Toshiba demonstrated a new technology for recognizing gestures

The end of the dramas with the dissapeared remote control is near – the prototype solution can put the beginning of a new type of interface for laptops and TVs.

At the exhibition for consumer electronics IFA 2008 in Berlin, the Japanese company have been demonstrated some of its recent achievements in development of so-called image detection technology.

One of the impressive examples was a system for recognizing gestures, which allows the user to interact with the interface of TVs only with movement of his hands. The system monitors the user's appearance in the visual field, then "looks" at the hands. Once they are identified, the viewer can simply shrink hand in a fist and move it in the space, like moving a mouse on a virtual surface, and the TV respond with "moving of the cursor” and menus change depending on the position of the hand.

Toshiba introduced similar technology in some of the latest laptops Qosmio, but there it was in a previous version, while the new is much more sophisticated, it work more smoothly and is not influenced by movements of other users (if there are any in the visual field of the system), told Kate Knill during a demonstration, manager of the department of interactive technologies in British laboratories of the company. Accourding to her, once development reaches that stage, it only remains to improve their application in a real environment so that they become effective alternative to standard remote control.

Mouse vacuum cleaner

The Japanese scientific thought have no holiday! They have been invented a USB mouse with built-in mini vacuum cleaner.

The gray part of the mouse opens to be able to dispose the garbage.

Original and hygienic right?

The function Vacuum cleaner turns on with little black button in the right side of the mouse.

It costs about 19 U.S. dollars.

Phone style Chanel

Small smart design - that is the concept of the phone invented by Fred de Gary. The name of the new phone is Chanel Choco Phone. The appearance of the jewelry is mutch like the legendary fashion brand, but the brand have nothing to do with the creation of Gary. The design is incredible, so soon we can expect from Shanel to produce the creation of the talented designer and show to the market its first phone bearing the proud name of the French brand.

Supercomputer from game consoles

Astrophysics from the University of Massachusetts built supercomputer from 16 game consoles PlayStation 3.

Sony's devices are connected via Ethernet adapters, and the whole system works under Linux. Professor Gaurav Hannah uses the supercomputer for testing the activity of the black holes. With its calculations invention, the scientist describe the properties of the gravitational field, that occurs with a collision of black holes. PS3 consoles use processors Cell.

Except for video games, these chips are used for processing streaming video with high resolution, in cluster calculations and in supercomputers.

Connecting of 16 PS3 consoles in one system provides a power as a PC with four hundred processor.

At the end of last year the Japanese company gave the professor from the University of Massachusetts eight of its entertainment devices, with which Hannah started the study of black holes
