EyeSeeCam devices controlled by the look


A group of scientists from the University of Munich EyeSeeCam have created a system that allows management of a robot using a camera or eye. This interface mounted on the head detects the position of the eyes and then transmits the information wirelessly to a few engines that control mechanical device.

This system has Wi-Fi connectivity and requires a laptop with a 6-pin Firewire port. The movement is achieved by using LEDs, a transparent mirrors and cameras mounted on glasses to capture the movements of our eyeballs at a speed of 600 times per second, these data are processed and used to control a dynamic system robotic vision with 6 units of measurement of depth of field.

The EyeSeeCam thinking was developed in the area of teaching is not discarded their worst step in the sales area.

New and innovative chips Grafeno


A research team from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with Tomas Palacios at the top are using grafeno (a form of pure carbon), a relatively new material, to manufacture electronic circuits but with smaller velocities of the order of 1000 GHz

Regarded as the world's strongest material, has qualities to be used in the manufacture of chips replace silicon in this manner. Palacios team has also used this material for electronic devices such as a frequency multiplier.

The prototype of "Transistor grafeno" was presented at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society and is said to not only revolutionize the electronics, but also information and communication technology, so that in future mobile phones, computers, sensors and other electronic equipment that would be material.

Camera is faster and more accurate


A team comprised of engineers from the University of UCLA (California) made the camera faster and more accurate history, which uses technology called STEAM (Serial Encoded Amplified Microscopy). The number of pictures you can take is 6.1 million frames per second with a shutter speed of 1 / 440 trillion seconds.

Camera is known as STEAM illuminates the object with an infrared laser that emits different wavelengths for each pixel captured. The camera sensor electronically amplifies the original signal and produces an equivalent length until the image is visible. Amplified because the images pixel by pixel can capture microscopic images as well as ultrafast events which makes it useful in medical and biological research.

The camera does not need light to high density is not heated and does not make any noise. Gouda explained that the camera produces images of 3000 pixels and it is hoped that in future they can take pictures of many more megapixels.

Mobile screens Capacitive


Increasingly, manufacturers of mobile phones that combine the idea of manufacturing mobile capacitive screens, a clear example is that Samsung already has mobile capacitive touch screens or the LG KF750 Secret also has this type of display.

The manufacturer who would be ready to join Nokia since according to information managed by some sources that placed an order for two million of these types of screens. According to Taiwanese newspaper DigiTimes Nokia to be launched mid this year a similar model to 5800 XpressMusic but has a capacitive touchscreen.


Will the future of all phones come with a capacitive screen? It is difficult to answer because it is not a simple change although we assume that most manufacturers assume this challenge. Capacitive screens now have a number of drawbacks, one of them is precisely because there are interfaces that have very small icons that clearly are easier to select with a pointer to the finger, on the other capacitive screens are more intuitive to use, no need to pressure and give an impression of speed.

Thus, due to the graphical interface used by many mobile manufacturers do not make this change. For now we will have to wait for improvement of the graphical interfaces of mobile phones that take this type of screen that is to create screens multitáctiles.

Philips stops production of its 3D screens


Given the high expectations caused in October last year, when the world famous brand Philips surprised us with the surprising results of the WOWvx technology, which allows viewing of 3D images by generating a sense of depth without the need for special lenses (this is achieved through a lens system located in each pixel of the screen) now comes bad news.

Unfortunately Philips stops production technology WOWvx and close its development division of 3D among the reasons why Philips took this decision are: the current global economic crisis is affecting even the largest companies and corporations, plus the distance from solutions for the average consumer.

Can only wait for the introduction of 3D glasses with the idea that this return is more widespread new technology.
