SmartBird Festo Robot Capable Seagull Original Fly Like Birds

Surprising to see the existing technological innovations on which SmartBird robot bird that can fly at almost exactly the movement of the birds and the original model of this bird has excellent aerodynamic qualities and extreme agility as a normal bird. With SmartBird, Festo has succeeded in the author describes the ability of birds flying into the technology that we can use.

 Robot bird brings bionic technology, which is inspired by the herring gull, can start flying from the ground independently - with no additional drive mechanism.

Wings not only move up and down, but also rotating at a certain angle. This is made possible by an active articulated torsional drive unit, which in combination with a complex control system achieve efficiency levels unprecedented in aviation operations. Festo has thus succeeded for the first time in creating an energy-efficient technical adaptation of the model of nature.

This robot has a carbon fiber materials and control electronics are closely denganb only 0.4 kilograms. Festo has demonstrated technology that illustrates how advanced robots can fly: SmartBird aerodynamically very efficient, even turning his head like real gulls do to perform aerobatics movements.

But if you think about the larger implications of robots, the possibility is quite astonishing: Imagine a robot spy plane based on this technology, packed with GPS systems are ultra-lightweight, powerful battery and a high-precision camera and microphone. The type of data that can be collected covert surveillance robot bird will certainly impress - and more stylish than any device other spy drone out there.

Joggobot, the Flying Robot Ready to Accompany When Jogging

A student from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), Chad Toprak managed to get an award as part of the team's robot creator named Joggobot. The flying robot capable of hovering in front of someone who does jogging or running.

 

With the flying robot, then those who like jogging or running will not feel lonely anymore, because Joggobot will accompany wherever they go. Chad Toprak stated that the robot is suitable for all types of Joggers. The robot has several modes such as companion mode that moves in line with the speed of the runner and trainer mode which claimed more challenging.

 

Currently Joggobot still under development. In wakt close, Joggobot will be sent to the United States. The robot will be displayed and presented at the Computer-Human Interaction conference in Austin, Texas. Joggobot expected to begin mass production this year.

 

Trojan alert 10 Producing Countries vicious!

Vendor anti-virus Kaspersky merilis 10 negara produsen trojan terganas yang mampu mencuri passwords untuk membobol sejumlah akun di situs internet. (Berita SuaraMedia)MOSCOW - Anti-virus vendor Kaspersky released the 10-nation producer vicious Trojan that can steal passwords. List of countries was revealed at a conference on the threat of cyber crime in the future, which took place in Moscow.

China ranks as the country's top makers dominate Trojans with 63 percent followed by Russia (12%). While Germany, India and Turkey ranks next with position 4 percent. As for Egypt, the United States, Ukraine, Mexico, and France occupied the position by producing 3 percent of the outstanding amount of trojans.

Aleks Gostev, director of the Global Research and Analysis Team Kasperski said other countries were a bit surprising is the presence of Egypt in the list of 10 countries creator of the Trojan. Though known to the state of the country is not typical trojan makers.

As reported by ITP.net, Wednesday (1/11/2011), the data are based on research on the tens of millions of computers worldwide. "Egypt is the worst victim of cyber crime cases in 2008, but in 2009 the number of attack to Egypt has declined," said Gostev.

"In addition to Egypt, the surprise was Turkey who never did attack websites flagged British Jewish newspaper, replacing the main page with a Palestinian flag, the newspaper editor said.

The website for the Jewish Chronicle - the oldest Jewish newspaper in the world that continue to be published - tainted for several hours on Sunday, editor Stephen Pollard said Monday.

"No damage done, as far as we know," he said. The website was back online on Monday afternoon.


A number of pro-Palestinian hackers successfully broke into the website of The Jewish Chronicle, and to revamp the looks.

Terbajak version of the website, which was caught by Google, shows a large Palestinian flag against a black background. In a message is entered in English and Turkish, a group calling itself the "Palestinian Mujahid" it quoted some verses from the Quran.

, A lot of malware that is now made in Turkey, "he said.

List of countries most advanced trojan producer:
1.China
2.Russia
3.Jerman
4.India
5.Turki
6.Mesir
7.Amerika States
8.Ukraina
9.Meksiko
10. France


In 2009, many see the malware epidemic backed malicious files. This attack method has been used several viruses, such as TDSS and Virut.

When cyber criminals are now beginning to make an effort to legalize themselves. In addition, they began to make money by creating huge traffic using a botnet. Fake antivirus programs will increasingly raged in 2010.

However, many antivirus confident, with the market monitoring by IT security firm and government legal agencies, antiviral distribution will be increasingly difficult. Attacks on Google Wave. The attack is believed will continue to make headlines in 2010.

The attack on Google's service will begin with a pattern of sending spam, and phishing attacks, exploit loopholes in the website and spread malware. Increased attacks on iPhone and Android phones as a platform. Attacks on platforms appeared in 2009, indicating interest in the cyber criminals.

Many criminals take advantage of special days to spread malware. Valentine's Day, the issue of H1N1, crash of Air France Flight 447, Serena Williams, to the death of Michael Jackson. Malware writers and spammers trying to lure Internet users unsuspecting into downloading malware, buying products and falling for scams. Data Theft Continues Progress.

According to the Identity Theft Resource Center, through October 13, 2009, 403 data breaches have been reported throughout the year and expose more than 220 million documents. According to the Ponemon Institute, people who do not mean any harm to continue to represent the bulk of data loss incidents by 88 percent of all data loss incidents caused by insiders such as employees and partners.

German Scientists Develop Laser Lowering Rain

Gambar Ilustrasi. (Foto: boingboing.com)GERMANY - A laser was used to produce a cloud in the sky that gave way to rain when needed.

For decades people are usually doing experiments seed rain by spraying the silver salt crystals into clouds high in the atmosphere.


Crystal water and push the point will come down to earth as rain.


"The efficiency of the technique is very controversial," said Jerome Kasparian of the University of Geneva, Switzerland, one of the team members who think laser could be a good way trigger rain on demand.


Kasparian and his colleagues have reported the first success of the technique is to invite a cloud in the air, both in the laboratory and in the sky Berlin Germany.


In the lab, the team fired infrared laser beam surprises extreme short into a door water-saturated air at a temperature of minus 24 degrees Celsius.


Linear cloud formations can be seen from the laser like a miniature aircraft being shaken.


Kasparian says the laser shock causes clouds to strip electrons from the atoms in the air and cause hidroxyl radical formation. It will turn into sulfur and nitrogen dioxide in the air into particles act as seeds fall of the rain.


"Each laser shock force issued a package milijoule 220 in just 60 femtoseconds, an intensity equal to the power of 1000 power plant," said Kasparian.


Analysis of air after the laser is turned off indicates that the total volume of condensed water droplets in it has increased by half, and thus the volume of condensed water increased by 100-fold.


Nevertheless, the extreme conditions of high humidity at low temperatures as in the lab is not the same as that seen in the atmosphere, according to Daniel Rosenfeld, an atmospheric scientist at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel.


"Anything that has been documented in experiments with minimal relevance to natural clouds," he said.

Look out! U.S. Make 'Iron Man' For Military Forces

Iron Man. (Foto: Google)CALIFORNIA - Leaders superhero Iron Man, which is currently playing the film, seems to really be into the facts.

The hero of the cast iron robot will soon be made.

A team of scientists and engineers at Raytheon are designing sophisticated robotic suit military.

Later, military robots can be used by U.S. forces on the battlefield in the future.

According to project leader Dr. Stephen Jacobsen, outfit called the exoskeleton robot is basically a robot that can be used.

About the ability to strengthen the power of a warrior, endurance and agility.

"Built from a combination of sensors, actuators and controllers, the futuristic suit enables to easily carry a man on his back or lift several hundred times without tiring," said Jacobsen, as reported by TG Daily.

"However, the used robot is also agile enough to let its wearer kick a ball, punch a speed fast, or climb stairs and ramps with ease," he added

Jacobsen added that he saw his work on the exoskeleton project as a combination of art, science, engineering and design.

"People call it different things. Sometimes they call find, sometimes they call it engineering, Sometimes they call it a mad scientist." he said

"But for us, it is partly the process of getting together, understanding the problems, goals, and then designing something to satisfy human needs," he concluded.
