Iphone screenshot of PhotoMath

Washington: If you are horrified by doing maths, you can install an application that will help you quickly and accurately get over with your calculations. The application is called PhotoMath, "the world's first camera calculator" which is a free mobile app that can read and solve maths problems.

Using the smartphone's camera, take a picture of a printed equation and watch the app solve the problem in real time by clicking through problem-solving steps, media reports said.

The app, developed by London-based firm MicroBlink, can be downloaded from Apple's iStore. The app is optimized to be used for iPhone and iPod.

Internet access all over the entire Planet

 
    The internet has become a big necessity means of communication especially during human crises and a crucial tool for man kind all over the planet. Currently,a Portuguese business wishes to make sure everyone has access to it from any part of the world, in any corner. Quarkson plans to use unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to transmit Internet to all part of the world.
     Quarkson's SkyOrbiter program is slightly similar to Googles project loon, which also aims to provide internet access to places. Only difference is that it tries to aim for the remote areas which don't have Internet access . In this process Google plans to float internet-enabled balloons above the earth,  where as Quarkson chooses to use a fleet of high-range UAVs to provide connectivity from orbit.

A shoe that responds-Smart Shoe

Future technology Concept Talking Shoe smart-sneaker
The shoe responding to its user
      Google's got one more of their experimental concept of making a shoe that responds to you by teaming up with Zach Lieberman and the YesYesNo(YYN) team. They have collaborated with each other and invented a prototype of this new concept of a shoe that responds.This advertising project combines technology and fashion together but as per now it hasn't released yet.
       This high tech gadget features an accelerometer, a gyroscpe and a Bluetooth connection, The shoe then passes on the data of the position and movements of the user to the internet wireless, again this data is further communicated to an app that explains the data, such as what to do next what to avoid,and responds to the user with its remarkable language.
      In case the user stands still for a long period of time it becomes a virtual coach.

A new Era on the new Earth

      A new study of astronomers has shown that there is a planet that is out there which has almost all the features of the Earth and can be inhabited. This planet is the first planet outside the solar system that could actually support life as how it is on Earth. It is now given the name as the- Super Earth

      Atmospheric studies have proved that the area suitable for creating a life as there is possible existence of water. This new world could resemble the our world in many ways as it contains oceans, sea and mainly life.
      This planets scientific name or the name which is known to all the astronomers in the world is known as Gliese 581d

     For previous several similar studies, it is along the same lines, but with the discovery of the closest, though not the concluded proof that water flows on the planet. The study states that Gliese 581d is about seven times larger than Earth and has a dense atmosphere on the basis of carbon dioxide. 
In the picture: towards the right is the earth and towards the left is the Super Earth


     Astronomers say that the Gliese 581d receives only one-third the energy of their parent stars, compared to the amount of energy the earth receives from the Sun. Also that planet (prediction)  is always facing only one side to its star, which means that one half the planet is in eternal day, and other half is in eternal night.

     when the planet was discovered for the first time they saw only ice and was filled with glaciers. But then scientists have believed that the atmosphere was so dense filled with carbon dioxide that there might be a  green house effect taken place, eventually melting down these huge icy particles into water

Clash of clan Update

     New troop has released and has outrageous skills to it.The new troop is called Lava Hound.This is so much skilled that it kills enemies close to it even after it dies.

They attack the closest air defense, especially the guard towers.
                                      More information is given below in the tabular form.

Soon power source of mobiles, by playing music?

WASHINGTON: Scientists have created a prototype panel with the ability to charge a mobile phone by vibrations around it like music or a ringtone.

Scientists from the Queen Mary University of London have invented a device called "nanogenerator," made of plastic coated with a layer of micro zinc oxide rods that generate electricity when the shape is changed, thus producing an alternative battery for your smart phone.

The researchers, in partnership with Nokia, said that this type of mechanism can be produced at a cheap cost and and will create five volts of electricity, equal to as most phone wall chargers do.

NBA 2K 15:modelling the slam dunk in a way the gamer is put into the game

Los Angeles: The developers of NBA 2K have found an innovative way in which the players photo can be captured and can be identified using the stereoscopic cameras, even the body of the player is identified. the latest installment is set for October 7th.
     The process is done by using photogenic cameras, usually the game will be developed for the latest consoles like Xbox one or playstation 4.
"This is all done by next-gen powered technology", says Jeff Thomas,vice president of developer of NBA 2K.The whole process may take up to 3 minutes i.e for the recognition of the players body and face.

Thomas says that you can  create avatars of yourself starting from scratch or look a likes.He expects the game technology to evolve including other 2K games like "MLB 2K," ''NHL 2K" and "WWE 2K" series, as well as the "BioShock" and "Borderlands" first-person shooter franchises.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg," said Thomas. "I think in the future that every triple-A title is going to want to have some sort of tech like this. It's so much more engaging to actually look at yourself when you're playing a video game compared to some random character."
