As a civilization, we may not be getting smarter. However, the technologies we use certainly are. Since the introduction of the smartphone, we’ve witnessed the emergence of smart homes, smart power grids, and even smart football stadium for helping fans find parking spaces. Lately, the trend has been to go big. Infrastructure applications are ever increasing in size and scope for transmitting, collecting, and processing big data in an effort to better understand and navigate our surroundings.

Examples of scalability with regard to smart technology now include “smart cities” like Chicago. It appears that the third largest city in the United States will become a leading model for collecting and managing big data from sensor nodes and cell phones throughout the area.

That iss 237 square miles and 2.7 million residents participating (knowingly or not) in an experiment expected to yield some impressive enhancements. Examples include:

  1. Traffic control systems: Enhance the flow of traffic at intersections by determining changes related to work and holiday schedules.
  2. Maintenance management: This could enhance the life of fleet vehicles, etc.
  3. Smart grids: Power distribution is always subject to change as it relates to environmental metrics like temperature
  4. Monitoring trends in criminal activities: Track car thefts and even the stolen cars themselves more efficiently.
  5. Public works: The storage, transport, and application of road salt in the winter as it relates to snow accumulation.

The Array of Things (AoT) is an urban sensing project, a network of interactive, modular sensor boxes that will be installed around Chicago to collect real-time data on the city’s environment, infrastructure, and activity for research and public use.

3D-printed sensors will be deployed on traffic light poles around the downtown area of Chicago that will post data such as sound and vibration around the city to the open data website. There will be an initial four censors at the University of Chicago campus, and then between 40 and 50 when the pilot is extended to the downtown area.

“Some of that is still being decided, because they’re refining the manufacturing process of the actual devices.”

There will be low-resolution cameras that determine the temperature of the footpath to see whether it needs to have snow removed, and there will also be climate and environmental data extracted on air quality and temperature.

The city is also moving to having free Wi-Fi throughout the public areas, focusing initially on public libraries and the beaches. There are also LED street lights than can be controlled remotely, and solar-powered trash compactors that alert the city when they are full.

 

 

Long Distance Sex with Technology

One of the biggest problems with long distance couples is that they can’t share their love with physical touch. However, these days, thanks to advance technology, they will be satisfied little bit. Here are two technology to touch each other:

Durex fundawear

 

Durex fundawear is underwear which has sensors to react to mobile phone. When a couple has special application and wear underwear, they can feel partner’s touch. It works that underwear reacts with partner’s application. As a result, they can caress each other. Like video, when they use video call with application, they will be close although their are in long distance.

Second, Lovepalz

Lovers can control their LovePalz devices during a cybersex session by using the LovePalz Web site, which also has a mobile version. A spokeswoman told me that the company is still working on launching a LovePalz iOS app, but progress has been delayed because of the App Store’s restrictions on selling adult-themed content.

The Hera resembles a dildo, while the Zeus is like a sleeker, high-tech version of the infamous Flesh light. The names are also interesting because although ancient Greek deities/husband-and-wife Zeus and Hera were often separated by long distances, that’s because Zeus was off having sex with everyone in the universe besides Hera.

Both toys have multiple pressure and speed sensors that work without buttons and allow partners to feel what each other is doing to them in real time. The devices are waterproof, rechargeable, and are engineered with an air pump and automatic piston. Why, you ask? Well, the air pump means the Hera toy can “get bigger when you are bigger,” as the LovePalz Web site puts it, and the air pump allows the Zeus to “tighten up.” The company ensures users that it has tested the air pump many times to make sure “the speed is ideal and stops when it’s getting too tight,” so there will be no news headlines screaming “LovePalz, the genius of penis explosion.”

In the past, the role of technology is the replacement which people are hard to work. So, it does not care about the emotion part. However, these days, technology tires to approach to satisfy to human’s touch, so that it tries to approach the emotion part. It is a good news for us.

 

Smart fabric -if you want to know your body condition, just wear it!

New clothes will become a your personal doctor. Is it believable? However, this is true.

Answer is the Smart fabric. Smart fabric is made of yarns most commonly made with silver which are woven into fabrics to act as sensors that detect electrical signals, acting as electrocardiograms and electromyograms to measure heart rate and muscle activity respectively. The silver can either be woven in throughout a piece of clothing or else through tapes or patches sewn into specific regions.

Because the detecting sensor is closer to our body than other devices, body signal is better to detected. Also, the advantage of this fabric is that we can check our body anytime because we always wear the clothes.

Signals are then transmitted to detectors such as apps on a smartphone or tablet so that  information is easily carried by the wearer. The information collected can also be uploaded to the cloud or sent to a third party, such as a doctor. Baker thinks this line of clothing could revolutionize medical practices.

The versatility of smart fabrics has enabled their use to extend beyond everyday apparel to clothing such as edema socks and materials such as smart bandages. The data collected also extends beyond heart rates to more specific indicators such as inflammation and pressure.

When you before go to visit doctor, we should check the basic test such as blood pressure, body temperature and so on. However, when we wear the clothes, we can skip the basic test. It results to reduce test cost, and doctor will notice our body condition directly.

The versatility of smart fabrics has enabled their use to extend beyond everyday apparel to clothing such as edema socks and materials such as smart bandages. The data collected also extends beyond heart rates to more specific indicators such as inflammation and pressure.

Also, This smart fabric will be utilized to space suits. The technology range is unlimited.

If we develop this technology, it will make our life better.

 

 

Iron Man’s Holographic Computer Is Closer With Leap Motion

When you watch the movie, ‘Iron man’, Tony Stark (Iron man) has many high technologies which are very interested. Especially, one of most high technology is the computer which does not need to mouse. Instead, it recognizes the human’s hands and activate with hands’ motion. This technology is called ‘Leap Motion.’

Actually, Leap Motion is not for technology, but it is company name. Leap Motion, Inc. is an American company that manufactures and markets a computer hardware sensor device that supports hand and finger motions as input, analogous to a mouse, but requires no hand contact or touching. Because of the company name, leap motion is known as technology. The Leap Motion controller is a small USB peripheral device which is designed to be placed on a physical desktop, facing upward. Using two monochromatic IR cameras and three infrared LEDs, the device observes a roughly hemispherical area, to a distance of about 1 meter (3.28084 feet). The LEDs generate pattern-less IR light and the cameras generate almost 300 frames per second of reflected data, which is then sent through a USB cable to the host computer, where it is analyzed by the Leap Motion controller software using “complex maths” in a way that has not been disclosed by the company, in some way synthesizing 3D position data by comparing the 2D frames generated by the two cameras.

In fact, I’d say that Leap might even be better than the imaginary technology from Johnny Mneumonic, because you don’t need to wear anything to use it.

All you need are your hands. Or a pencil. Or a paintbrush. Or whatever you’d work with in real life.

The Leap is a simple box about the size of a flash drive, and it just sits on your desk near your monitor. It projects a “box” 8 cubic feet around itself, which you can use as a work space. When you make gestures inside this box, the Leap can track them.

This isn’t Wii or Kinect-level technology here – it’s much better. According the Leap website, the technology is 200 times more accurate than anything else on the market right now, and can track movements as small as 1/100th of a millimeter.

And the best part? There’s an SDK for developers coming, which means that we might soon have a plethora of applications to use that are specifically built to work best with the Leap.

Imagine modeling 3D images in Blender just by molding them like clay. Or building a website just by using your finger to draw the sections of each page. Or playing a shooter and just pointing your finger at your enemies to take them out.

It is related with IoT (Internet of Things). When you have this device, you can control all of your machine with this device.As a result, users can approach the systems without any difficult knowledge. It will be very useful for user to use any device.
