Here the Robot controlled by a Netbook

August 27th, 2010

Who has not dreamed of having a robot that could perform more strenuous tasks at home? Or maybe send him shopping and avoid the queue hours by car downtown? Well before long it will be possible . The development of robotics is enormous. In Italy for example, was made about a month ago the new version of a robot – a football player. Probably a ‘ good buy for the teams interesting that instead of paying fine billion annually in salary , merely to make an initial purchase of a particular investment and then put it in the field. Seriously , the robot in question is based on ocular and joint sensors , able to focus on the ball and kicking in a predetermined direction .

robot-three

The real news of the day the farm robed and the now ubiquitous netbook(Toshiba Satellite A205 battery) with at least one house we all. The company in question had long ago launched a robot in the video presentation took the android in a particular place of popcorn and took them to his ” master. ” The new model is called robots Three. In addition to more ‘economical than the previous maintained by a Netbook. The kit components can be purchased directly on the project website and you will receive the matching set of parts to assemble their robots Three ( without the PA3400U-1BRS battery ) .

The starting price is only $ 399 , but is expandable depending on the capabilities of the robot and interest , especially with the optional accessories like batteries last longer and specific sensors . Technically, the robed Three is 30 x 30 x 16 cm in size and 1.8 kg thinks kit purchase includes a complete frame , wheels, an engine of 120 rpm , a rechargeable battery and a USB controller that can be connected to the netbook(Dell TC030 battery). Programming is simple and compatible with most common languages such as C, C + + , C #, the Action Script, Flash , Java and Visual Basic. Operating systems are then connected both Windows and Linux as well as Mac OS X.

The cost of previous models was less accessible (Silvio $ 1279 and Cup to $ 1,799 ), while the Three manufacturer wanted to make sure that the robot would be within reach of most enthusiasts. Certainly in the future we will see some beautiful.

Sony launches new Vaio VPCEB1Z1E E / B

August 2nd, 2010

vaioSony has introduced its new E series of its Vaio notebooks(Sony VGP-BPS9/B). Analyze specifically what appears to qualify as his flagship, the VPCEB1Z1E / B.

Analyzing the technical capabilities of the computer is immediately clear that Sony has decided to aim for hardware to meet the growing need for audiovisual reproduction of his clients, leaving substantially the aesthetic object.

The Vaio VPCEB1Z1E E / B because no major innovations over its predecessors chassit give a very simple, perhaps cumbersome than other models on the market. To make matters worse, from this point of view, we think a touchpad slightly awkward to use than the general size of the device.

And although the positioning of the USB is on the need to organize the internal components of the notebook(Sony VGP-BPS5A battery) in a way, the position of the two doors, bottom right, it proves to be far from optimal

The stylistic shortcomings are immediately supplanted by the technical characteristics of this machine that we are sure will delight fans of audio visual. For a 15-screen, 5-inch full HD is in fact connected, among others, a Blu-ray disc, the best currently on the market for what regards the HD and playback of high resolution.

For an Intel Core i5-430m with a 2.2 GHz Intel ® Turbo Boost (max 2.5 GHz) is connected to a memory 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM (1066 MHz). Bluetooth connectivity combined with WLAN 802.11 b / g / n makes the Vaio VPCEB1Z1E E / B one of the most interesting notebook(VGP-BPS8A battery) models for the planned marketing. The operating synthem is obviously the new Windows 7, is accompanied latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader is a demo version of the new Microsoft Office Home and Student valid for 60 days trial.

The processor is evolving into a 10-fold

July 23rd, 2010

The computer(Dell Inspiron 9300 battery) market is moving increasingly toward mobility: the future is marked by the simplicity and portability. Over the years, a computer component decreases its value agree to the changes introduced simultaneously, one component that has seen the most growth in recent years is the processor: the old model 10 years ago with faster processors present optimized multimedia operations or other special situations through external instruction set and finally the huge multi-step: first simulated, then actual number of cores inside the processor is step one to eight.

transistor-300x300

But now we are preparing a new revolution of processors: Australian scientists have created a transistor 10 times smaller than that currently used by them. Such a creation will not only save enormous space, but also increase performance and decrease the heat generated by the core. All this is possible thanks to a tiny transistors and simple, but we see more closely this “piece”: the transistor is a solid that has the special feature to pass current only when l ‘order’. We can assimilate the transistor to a faucet when we open the handle, passes the water when the handle is closed, water does not pass. From this simple mechanism is born whole series of buildings that allow what we now call computers(Dell Latitude D620 Battery).

To understand what levels of development we arrived just think of the number of transistors in a component: we started from 3500 transistors in the early 1974’s CPU(which runs by HP Pavilion DV6000 battery) up to over 60 million in the latest Pentium IV. This number will be ten times greater with the creation made by Australian scientists! The new transistor is based on “quantum dots”, a transistor on an atomic scale big four billionths of meters, are frightening figures that allow us to do what we do now every day.

It to a lot of people compare Apple Macbook Air Apple Macbook Air as “the ultimate thin and light” and the ThinkPad X300 is a “no compromise light” here refers to the uncompromising performance, the existence of Apple Macbook Air interface less than , non-standard optical disk drive, memory card there, and many other battery change not regret, and the ThinkPad X300 is more comprehensive.

Light, is the beginning of thin ThinkPad X300 notebook to get the first impression, as is currently the lightest full-featured notebook 13 inches, really deserves. Whole transmission is still the appearance of the “black” appearance of the classic, although the machine has been monotonous black as main color, but it gives the feeling of losing fashion. Its powerful battery is litium battery as VGP-BPS8 VGP-BPS9 VGP-BPS11 VGP-BPS13. The reason why such a thin and light ThinkPad X300 with its use of the material body has a great relationship, X300 using CFRP carbon fiber and glass fiber GFRP as top and bottom of the body material, to ensure a solid body of good control at the same time weight machine.

Thinkpad X300 battery using locking design, unlock the front left is located in the fuselage, one-handed opening and closing of the notebook some difficulties, but the benefits of this design is the security of the notebook have a good guarantee. Of course, there are less than each notebook, I use the X300 for some time, found that the shaft resistance of a small notebook, so I do not know the design of the notebook, or more than the number of opening and closing of cause; In addition, the skin texture of the matte notebook region, if the user the situation in this touching and humid, it is easy to leave a mark, but it is very difficult to remove.

Thinkpad X300 interior design, in the whole extension of the ThinkPad is still the IBM traditional style, in the middle of the screen set up above the 1.3 million-pixel camera, the camera lights next to the keyboard, user-friendly to use in the dark. In the look down in the notebook inside of the two axes are the logo and the Lenovo logo X300.

Relatively rich interface X300 is a big selling point, many people give up Apple Macbook Air and X300 choose one of the major reasons is because this point. Although the X300 compared to the ordinary 13-inch notebook interface or worse, but has been used to meet the day-to-day. The following is a notebook specific distribution of the interface.

In fact, the whole performance of X300 can only say that it is ordinary, Core 2 Duo L7100 processor frequency of only 1.2GHz as thinkpad X200 battery, but the application of the ordinary day-to-day, or enough. In fact, the hardware configuration of the X300’s biggest bright spot is the hard drive is equipped with, X300 uses SSD solid state hard drive, SSD solid state drive uses NAND flash memory, hard drive not have to worry about the collision of data loss, which greatly raised the hard disk data security.

Overall, this notebook is remarkable, 13-inch thin frame, 1.33 kilograms of whole weight, the excellent performance of the hard drive, LED screen, said to be worthy of the ThinkPad family of a milestone for inspiron 6000. But there are also many places with some regret that the general processor performance, interface, or a little weak, especially the price of the current wetlands, or some to be prohibitive.

Try to mute the speaker volume and avoid the use of multimedia software to improve XPS M1710 battery life. In addition, you can avoid sound schemes that are installed which can reduce battery life.

TIP 9. Say no to Screensaver:

For best battery life, turn off the screensaver.

TIP 10. Avoid putting very colorful Themes:

programmed the latest operating system like Windows Vista and Windows 7 come along with generic features such as Aero Glass, “which are user resources. You can be deactivated and can be moved to ‘classic look that consume less Dell Inspiron 1520 Battery energy. In Windows Vista / Win 7, click the Desktop and then Preferences and then View Color and Appearance and then, following classic look and the basic Windows GUI. In Windows XP, right click and select Properties, then Display Properties and then select Theme and Windows Classic.

Whereas the operating system like Linux and Macintosh, which are optimized to deliver more powerful Dell Inspiron 11Z battery.

TIP 11. Power Options:

You can check the power management ‘”energy options available in Control Panel. Both Windows XP, Windows Vista operating system and Windows 7 management has advanced power features that helps you turn off components such as monitor or hard disk for a specific time being. It is also dependent on the selected “layout” for Windows XP operating system in the same window. For example, in Windows XP operating system, you can go to “Power Schemes below order to the maximum battery to select the maximum optimization of the Dell Inspiron 1440 battery.

TIP 12. Use Hibernate mode:

Sometimes we put our laptop on standby, but in such cases, the computer switches off the hard drive and the monitor screen, but the memory is activated, which causes slow down the CPU. This reduces the Dell Inspiron 1525 Battery life. In such cases, the hibernation mode to be applied in the computer, this saves the current state and completely shut down which saves even more energy.

TIP 13.reducir at best, have many programs at once:

One of the main reasons for the reduction of battery life is to work on several programs that puts pressure on the battery and carries the waste of Dell Inspiron 1470 battery energy. Make use of graphics applications aimed at a minimum. If you are working on an application such as spreadsheet that usually takes less energy to play their favorite game. It can also increase battery life by simply opening one or two programs simultaneously.

TIP 14. Use RAM:
