Computer Latest Technology Android PC From Via


With the advent of Raspberry Pi and other similar devices, VIA has released its small creature called APC (from the confluence of the words Android and PC). Recommended price is $ 49 device. Consider as well whether it is an attractive device, as described by VIA. As fashionable Raspberry Pi, APC will be supplied as a payment without a body. However, neither the board nor its size should not confuse potential customers. With dimensions of 17h8, a fee of 5 cm can be easily connected to a conventional monitor or TV, to connect the keyboard and mouse, and immediately begin work. 
FEATURES OF APC INCLUDE:

o       Processor - VIA WonderMedia ARM 11 - 800 MHz
o       RAM - 512 MB DDR3
o       Built-in memory - 2 GB
o       4 out USB 2.0
o       VGA and HDMI
o       MicroSD slot
o       The Ethernet interface


The device comes with a stripped-down operating system, Android 2.3. Company VIA has already said that will make every effort to port the Android operating system version 4.0.3 on the APC. How plausible this statement, at the moment is hard to say. The processor is not the same, and the RAM is not enough. However, as stated in a press release, the company VIA, the device can play back video quality 720p, as well as work with the codec H.264. For fans of technologies that do not harm the environment, there is good news. APC will consume 13 watts at full load, and only 4 watts in idle mode. Let's hope this is not the last device from VIA, as the likely failure of the APC is waiting for the market because of its configuration. The device is already available for order, but will only ship in mid-July.

Latest Technology Vehicle Uni-Cub From Honda


A new type of device for the movement was introduced by Honda, which serves as tangible proof of progress in the field of high technologies. Uni-Cub - perhaps not the most revolutionary form of transport, but still we have much to be surprised. Device management is carried out by the shift of gravity, ie by rotation of the torso in one direction or another, including forward and backward to accelerate to a stop. Externally, the unit looks pretty well without much innovation. However, some critics quickly dubbed the Uni-Cub "trash can on wheels." And other critics have wondered comfort when traveling on a Uni-Cub, because of its advertising everywhere people are moving very small size of both the height and width. As already probably has become clear, the unit is consuming power from the built-in lithium battery and can reach a maximum speed of 4 miles per hour, which is nearly seven miles an hour. Uni-cub will be tested in June of this year and early next it will put into production.

Technology Yandex Overtaken Channel Largest Audience


 In May 2012, "Yandex" visited by 19.1 million people a day, and watched Channel 18.2 million people a day. These are the findings of international research group TNS.

The greatest gap between the channel from the sites observed in the assessment of monthly audience at least once a month, includes the first 41.4 million, or 8.2 million more than the users in Mail, and 8.7 million more than the "Yandex".


It is important that the difference between an audience of all channels and all you'll ever need is constantly changing in the direction of the latter. In April, a daily Internet enjoyed 30.5 million, and watched TV less than a million. However, according to the April survey, "Levada-Center", only 14 percent of get their news from the Internet, while 72 percent is used as a source of state television news.

However, the main determining factor for the development of a particular segment of the media market is the behavior of advertisers who do not hurry to change their priorities. Advertisers believe that the susceptibility of consumers to television advertising more than advertising on the network. On the other hand, referring to the new data on the number of audience, "Yandex" hoping to draw attention to the undervaluation of Internet advertisers.

Google Points Augmented Reality Latest Technology


Augmented Reality Glasses Google is on its way. So the developers of these points. Technology "augmented reality" are no longer than that of the world of fantasy, these technologies are used in mobile applications for tablets and smartphones. Nevertheless, serial devices, designed to work in such environments is still there. However, it is expected that Google points augmented reality will be presented in June this year at a conference for developers. 
Work on the Google goggles is one of the secret laboratories, located in California. This project is viewed as an experiment, which should show people are willing to use technologies used in augmented reality glasses Google, and whether Google goggles on the market demand.

Google augmented reality glasses , primarily intended for people who love to travel. This device will help you to pass the time during the trip. You will be able to watch another masterwork, without causing inconvenience to the people around you.

Top Technology the Astronauts Successfully Docked to the ISS Ship Dragon


Mission Control Centre (Korolev, Moscow Region), May 25 - Astronauts Don Pettit and Andre Cowper has successfully docked with the International Space Station, the first ever commercial spacecraft Dragon. Up to this point came to the station only to "state" ships - Russian, American, European and Japanese.


Dragon was docked to the Harmony module using the Canadarm robot arm to 2.20 Moscow time - at this point have worked all 16 fixtures, which are tightly connect the spacecraft to the station.


 NASA Ship Dragon, captured by the ISS manipulator Canadarm

During the approach to the ISS aboard the ship fails with an infrared camera and laser system, LIDAR, which are designed for navigation and control of the device relative to the station. Therefore, during the convergence of the ship made several unscheduled stops, and the actual docking occurred about two hours later than planned.

Hatches ship is expected to be open on Saturday. Dragon delivered to the station about 500 pounds of cargo - it is "optional" items, without which the crew can easily manage.
The cargo compartment of the first "private traders" - several boxes of equipment for experiments with fluids produced by students in an open competition. The structure of this equipment includes ice cubes to cool the samples. On board will be delivered to laptops, batteries and food - 117 standard meals for astronauts wear.
As planned, Dragon will be docked to the station until May 31, after which the ship's descent capsule landed in the Pacific Ocean, bringing several hundred kilograms of cargo to Earth.

Dragon, developed by U.S. company SpaceX, became the first private space truck that went to the ISS.

SpaceX has spent on the development of the ship for four years - in December 2010, he made the first flight into orbit and safe splashdown in the Pacific. Thus, SpaceX became the first private company that brought the ship into space and successfully restored it to the earth - that had managed just three countries - the U.S., Russia and China.
