Smelliest Computer You Own!

Sensoria Socks Heapsylon

It seems, runners will have wearable computer-socks, called Sensoria, that may just be the most impressive tracker that I have found out yet.

Actually Senosoria look less silly than Google Glass and less silly than those toe-shoes too.  This maybe the senctence for those who like to wear Sensoria where it comes from a small startup in Redmond Wahsington called Heapsylon which is very special pair of socks indeed.  It is a fabric embedded with pressure sensors-an "e-textile", in the language of the startup.  It senses pressure from a few specific points in the foot, like under the first metatarsal (The bone that's connected to your big toe) and the heel.  That seems to be all that's going on in the socks themselves-just pressure sensors.

Oh, and for your information Redmond may be sounds familiar since it is also the home of Microsoft and the founders of Sensoria are indeed Microsofties, from the world-class Xbox Kinect team.

Unleashing Synonyms To Catch E-Book Pirates

New software that automatically changes words and grammar in e-books.  It sounds like a scenario that could have come straight from The Phantom Toolbooth's Dictionopolis.  Researchers have created a program to catch pirates by their commas..to trap them with paragraph breaks.

The new program, still under development at the Darmstadt Technical University in Germany automatically creates subtle alternative versions of an e-book by moving words around, using synonym, or adding or removing grammatical marks, the blog Torrent Freak reports.  If a pirated version of the book appears online, the publishers are able to narrow down its source by looking at which version it is.  The program also creates some invisible marks to help track e-books

This is a very good program to me, since it blocking the attempt to pirates a book and which can protects copyrighted works while allowing people who have bought e-books to do some small-time sharing, such as copying the book onto all of their devices.

It Is a Job For the Robot!

You must believed that one day robots may rule the roads one day, but until now it only limited limited Ford test tracks.  This is because Ford had introduced a pilot program within the automaker is using robots to test the durability of Ford's new full-size Transif van family set to launch next year.  The robots drive the vehichles through accelerated high-impact on and off road test.

Before being certified for customer use, all North American Ford trucks must pass a battery of tests, run on courses filled with broken concrete, cobblestone, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversized speed bumps.  All these can be unconfortortable for human testers, neccessitating the need for the robots, Ford, in partnership with Utah-based Autonomous Solutions Inc., implemented its new technology at its Michigan Proving Grounds, where a robotic control module installed in the test vehicle can regulate steering, accelaration, and breaking.  Set to a pre-programmed course, engineers can track the vehicles's position from a central control room and have the ability to stop the truck, course correct and restart the test.

The best part of having this robot driver test is, engineers can run an unlimited number of repeat tests, until they  are satisfied with the results.

Audi Park Itself!

In James Bond's movie which is "Tomorrow Never Dies" where Bond would operate his BMW 750IL with a remote control and how i and i bet you too wish that thing in the movie will come to real and in 2013, that technology becomes realistic and it is happening where in The 2013 Consumer Electronic Show (CES) was held in Las Vegas where the world's most important electronic show.  Audi has shown several new technological aspects and one of them is through this self-driven Audi A7 showing off the brand's piloted parking system and in this case, it not using remote control but using an iPhone as a key remote.

How does it work? Audi has been developing its own self-driving technology, which it prefers to call piloted parking or driving.  The car uses twelve ultrasound sensors to navigate and avoid obstacles.  It parks itself with a combination of sensors in the car, the garage and roads.  The hope is that parking garages will have computers that communicate with the car, telling it where there is open space.  The car is able to make turns on its own and knows how to maneuver around the garage with external laser sensors.  For Audi, one technology with which it hopes to leap ahead is a local Wi-Fi hotspot and integrated 3G/4G for internet access for passengers while on the road.

There is still a lot of auto support that have to be improved in order to make this system functioning well it needs access to the car park's management system, in order to find and and allocate a free parking space and transmit the route to the car.  Since most modern car parks have more than one level or are underground, GPS-based positioning is not really an option, so instead the management system uses Wi-Fi to transmitt the route.

So girls, lets go for shopping whilst our car do the parking!

Terrafugia: The vertical take-off fying car

Imagine in a future that you own a car which is can liftoff and landing, it would be awesome isn't? where you are no more obligated with traffic jams to go to class and won't catch up late for your important meeting or date.wink!.  But, a good thing come with a good price where you have to prepared a half or one million dollar.

Terrafugia, the Woburn, MA, company developing the Transition flying car, has plans for a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) sibling.  Basically, Terrafugia TF-X would be tilt-rotor flying machine that would take off and like a helicopter instead of a runway, the TF-X could use helipad or parking lot, the using of helipad and parking lot are important because of Terrafugia's devices are not so much flying cars as roadable aircraft where it can lift you off to your destination a few miles away, the closer you land to destination the better.
