ASTEROID 22:O7

A new 30-meter asteroid happened today very close to Earth


The new asteroid passed us over just 0.9 times the Moon's distance, so that you can consider , by protocol, as a potentially dangerous astronomical phenomenon .



At 22:07 , CET , the asteroid named 2014 DX110 approached very close to the Earth , just under 350,000 kilometers or 0.9 times the distance between Earth and the Moon.

"It's a very safe distance , but still a very spectacular phenomenon," explains some of those responsible for the Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory in Italy , led by Dr. Gianluca Pasi , via Web The Virtual Telescope Project 2.0.





This time , the asteroid's trajectory is much closer to us than the spotted by astronomers in recent months . Above all, the most recent, 2000 EM26 , which was classified as " potentially dangerous" , but pass " near " Earth nearly nine dots, just last February 18 distances.

Hence the phenomenon of the night, a " gall " authentic only 0.9 lunar distances , are, per protocol , cataloged just as potentially dangerous.

However, such sightings are considered common within the scientific community, due to the sensitivity and precision of the instruments we use to scan the sky, as reported by Antonio Pérez Verde.

Increasingly frequent location asteroid whose path crosses areas relatively close to our planet, although it is virtually nonexistent real hazard. Not surprisingly, phenomena like this, your today at 22.07 hours , half occur twice a month . Carpe diem , just in case .

YOTAPHONE 2

The two YotaPhone dazzles at Mobile World Congress

Journalists believe that the Russian smartphone YotaPhone 2 is one of the five best news on mobile devices among all that has been on display in Barcelona.


Russia's Yota Devices has unveiled the prototype of the second generation of its smartphone at the Mobile World Congress 2014 exhibition which took place in Barcelona on 24 and 27 February.
Journalists create the top 5 of the Russian exhibition included among the most innovative device with the Nokia X , the ZTE C Open the Samsung Galaxy blackphone and S5 .
The public could see a test pattern, although it was only a copy of exposure, so that in practice it was impossible to assess their technical qualities. For this reason the expert community has not been able to assess all the advantages of the new apparatus . Despite which , it has already achieved many positive reviews for his appearance .
Among those who have praised the novelty of YotaPhone is Sergey Tikhonov , communications manager Sviaznoi group of companies , one of the largest retail groups in Russia.
" The new device works on all GSM/3G network systems and of course with the LTE standard . , This device has a universal electronic ink display that is always on. Smartphone If the battery runs out , simply go to this screen important information , for example an airline ticket , a map , an address or a phone that you need , and this will remain accessible even when you have finished the battery completely , "he says 


It is known that YotaPhone 2 has many improvements over the first. The phone has a new design, more rounded . The second screen , the main feature of the device can now be used much more actively. Thanks to her own can answer calls and work with SMS messages for 50 hours.

Thus you can access virtually all major functions without using the main screen , which can significantly save the battery charge .
The two screens keep the possibility of working with gloves (remember that its main competitor the iPhone5S not have this function ) .
The new YotaPhone 2 improved in every way, should begin to be marketed in late 2014 . According to information from El País in Spain will sell for 499 euros . There are grounds to assume that the new version will be most in demand in the market that the first version of YotaPhone .

A SPECIAL COLLECTION OF NEW MOBILE 2014 (BARCELONA CONGRESS)

The ten most interesting news from MWC 2014 February 25, 2014 

The most important fair of the world's mobile, Mobile World Congress, it has become to be held in Barcelona this year and has brought interesting new features like the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the emergence of smart bracelets as a market.

Samsung Galaxy S5
It was definitely the most anticipated presentation. The Samsung Galaxy S5 has no major developments in external appearance , but includes enhancements such as a fingerprint reader or camera 16 megapixel



Phones at $ 25
Firefox OS , the operating system for mobile low cost , has taken another step in its goal to universalize these devices with the project that will allow them to take mobile terminals that cost only 25 dollars. The image , however , is the Flame prototype, which cost about $ 100 and is intended as a reference device for developers.



The year of smart bracelets
If a year ago were fashion watches, this year it is up to the bracelets : Sony has introduced the SmartBand (left ), Samsung Fit Gear (top) and Huawei TalkBand B1 (below). More limited functions , all of which communicate with mobile and measure steps , pulse and other events in order to help improve our fitness.



Yotaphone 2
The Russian mobile phone manufacturer Yota Devices has introduced the successor to its terminal with two screens , rear e-ink . Besides putting the guts to the level of high-end phones , the new Yotaphone grown its two screens of 4.3 inches to 5 in the case of the main screen and 4.7 rear , also will touch .



Nokia X
The first Android phones of Nokia , aimed at the low end , have an interface similar to Windows Phone , replaced by apps from Google and Microsoft own equivalent and have to own store. Prices range from 89 to 109 euros .





blackphone
It has been seen in this MWC 's big bet Geeksphone Spanish companies : a mobile with a modified version of Android to keep our data can be tracked by intelligence agencies or other gossips . Already, design, price and features, and are up to : not have to give up to have a good mobile to safeguard privacy.



Samsung Gear 2
New watches Samsung (Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo) Android by Tizen change and improve some aspects quite criticized as battery performance , now would last about 6 days of moderate use. Will it be enough to win ?



Sony Xperia Z2
The latest high-end Sony coming in March and its price is still unknown , but some of its features such as 5.2-inch display and 20.7 megapixel litter hopefully not ruin the reputation of quality that has earned the Japanese company with their cameras.




At mid-range assault
The example of G Moto seems rife and several manufacturers have shown their commitment to midrange terminals and Huawei Ascend G6, M2 Sony Xperia , HTC Desire and LG G2 mini 816 . Its features are competitive, but we have to see their prices , since only unveiled the Huawei terminal and rises, pun intended , to 249 euros , which is already higher than the Motorola

INFORMATIC VIRUS

A computer virus that can be spread through the air 

This virus was like a virus in the air traveling through the wireless network via access points.


Researchers at Liverpool University have shown for the first time that wireless networks can be infected with a virus and it can move through densely populated areas as efficiently as a common cold is spread between humans.

For this work , which has been published in Journal on Information Security , the team designed and simulated an attack by a virus , called " Chameleon " , and proved that not only could spread rapidly among households and businesses, but was able to avoid detection and to identify the points where the wifi is less protected by encryption and passwords.

The study was tested in Belfast and London in a laboratory setting and found that Chameleon resembled a virus in the air, traveling through the wireless network via access points ( APs) that connects households and undertakings to wifi networks.

The areas that are more densely populated with more and more access points next to each other , which meant that the virus spreads more rapidly, particularly through networks that can be connected within 10 to 50 meters.

One of the authors , Alan Marshall , explained that " when Chameleon attacks an AP , does not affect its operation, but is able to gather and communicate user credentials wifi that connected to it." " The virus then sought other wifi access points that could connect to and infect " he added . Finally , Chameleon was able to avoid being captured by the virus detection systems that are present on the internet or computers.

"Although many access points are sufficiently encrypted and password protected , the virus simply went ahead to find those who were not heavily protected points including free wifi in public places like coffee shops and airports," the authors note .

As explained , the wifi connections are increasingly a target for hackers because of security vulnerabilities that exist . "However , it was assumed that it was not possible to develop a virus that could attack the wifi networks , but we have shown that this is possible and can spread rapidly ," concluded Marshall.

SMERTPHONES FIREFOX OS

Smartphones Firefox OS promises 

$ 25 

The Mozilla mobile OS has starred in many new features, including new terminals Alcatel, ZTE and Huawei.



While other phones are stealing the headlines, there are also developments in the world of low-cost operating system for mobile and emerging markets. The main thing is that Spreadtrum , designer of chips for mobile platforms racing far ahead with Qualcomm and Mediatek , announced the SC6821 chipset , which will produce smartphones with Firefox OS for $ 25 .

In addition, the Mozilla Foundation has also unveiled a called terminal Flame T2Mobile China that will manufacture and sell only online . The goal is to become the reference device , a similar role in meeting the Nexus in the Android ecosystem . It will have a dual core 1.2 Ghz and will cost $ 100.

Telefónica, the multinational telecommunications that has supported the system, has reiterated that it will continue extending the countries in which it operates . Indeed , the refusal of WhatsApp to take your application to Firefox OS , says still negotiating to change his mind and expects the purchase by Facebook pave the way . Vodafone has also joined the project , which are twenty other operators, including Deutsche Telekom , Sprint and America Movil.

new terminals                                                                    

Besides the terminal pioneer Geeksphone Spanish , there are currently three mobile available: Alcatel One Touch Fire , LG and ZTE Fireweb Open . The MWC have presented seven other devices, including a tablet. The Huawei Ascend II will be similar to Y300 Y300 but Firefox will come equipped with Android OS instead . It will be the first with this operating system for the Chinese company.

Meanwhile , ZTE has presented at MWC two new ZTE Open series system equipped with Mozilla: ZTE ZTE Open C and Open II. The brand expects to sell more than a million of these handsets during 2014. The first will come with a Qualcomm dual-core processor at 1.2 Ghz and Firefox OS 1.3 and will be marketed by Movistar in Spain . It will be launched in six colors , dark blue , light blue, turquoise, red, white and orange. The second is a successor to the ZTE Open, Telefónica launched in July 2013.

Finally , Alcatel has presented its new range OnteTouch Fire , consisting of three mobile phones and a tablet. The cheaper, the Fire C , has a 3.5-inch screen and 480x320 pixel resolution , dual core processor at 1.2 GHz and 0.3 megapixel camera . Meanwhile, the Fire Fire E and S represent a leap into the middle range , with 4.5-inch screen and a resolution of 960x540 pixels. The former is more basic and has dual-core processor and five megapíxesles camera , while the second has four cores , eight megapixel camera and 4G connection .

The tablet , called Fire 7 , has as expected with a 7 inch screen . Its resolution is 960x540 pixels, which seems rather low for a device of this size, but remember we're talking about devices that do not know the price, but it is assumed will be very cheap. There have been many more details , apart from indicating which features dual core processor 1.2 GHz the same as everyone else .

DROPLETON

Discover dropletón, quantum droplet 

Physicists in Germany and the USA have first described a type of quasi-particle composed of a bunch of electrons and holes.


A team of researchers from the University of Marburg (Germany ) and JILA (University of Colorado - Boulder NIST) has been found in semiconductor center means a new quasi-particle : the dropleton . The work is published this week in the journal Nature.

Quantum excitations are quasiparticles formed by smaller particles that together act like one predictable behavior. An example is the exciton , integrated by an electron and a hole ( where the electron could be but is not ) cuasipartícula attached by electrostatic forces . "We're talking about five droplets with five holes and electrons ," says one of the researchers

The dropletón is the sum of a small group of excitons , ie , a few photons and condense gaps for a second ( 25 picoseconds, or 25 billionths of a second) as the liquid droplets .

Its properties and appearance of " droplet " ( droplet , ) have inspired scientists to christen the new quasiparticle as dropletón . In Spanish it would be something like " gotitón " . It also has a structure and quantum characteristics different from those of other known .

" The droplets of electrons and holes in semiconductors are known , but usually contain billions of these electrons and holes ," explains Steven Cundiff JILA physicist , one of the authors . " We're talking about five droplets with five holes and electrons ."

To create the new quasi-particles have been used ultrafast laser pulses . With them has generated the hole and electron plasma necessary to produce excitons , of which after the dropletones arise .

Weather relatively "long" life makes these quasiparticles stable enough to facilitate the study of quantum interactions between light and matter. According to the researchers , their detection is of interest in the field of fundamental physics .

"Regarding the practical benefits , no one will create a gizmo quantum dots , but this has indirect benefits to improve our understanding of how electrons interact in various situations, including optoelectronic devices ," said Cundiff .

NO MORE WOOF

Don't say GUAU, say HELLO



The talking dogs no longer belong only to films , cartoons and Android applications. A group of Scandinavian researchers the task of bringing superior pet screens and throw them in real life was proposed. And now they are ready to show the world the first version of No More Woof ( no barking ) , and a portable external device that is capable of translating the thoughts of dogs to human language .

The project may sound a bit crazy , but its creators say it is quite simple , since that use technical mechanisms already used in other areas such as electroencephalography and microcomputer . "The technology is already there, basically what we do is package it in a different way ," says Per Cromwell , co-founder of the Nordic Society for Invention and Discovery , the laboratory is dedicated to developing this product.

The first thing that the device is measuring electrical signals from the mind of the animal through the EEG sensors . A computerized interface then converts them to words , which are uttered by a small device attached to the speaker . "Every brain produces when thinking patterns , so we just have to map these patterns and interpret them. For dogs , we have managed to identify and distinguish between feelings of fatigue , anger, curiosity and hunger , "says Cromwell.

Although currently only dogs can speak with a single voice type, researchers are working to have a range of timbres and sounds that fit the breed and personality of each can. Also, try to offer the product not only in English but also in French, Spanish and Chinese.

Researchers working on a range of timbres and sounds that fit the breed and personality can

" Listen to what an animal is thinking is a fascinating concept , and to communicate with them is a dream for many people ," says Cromwell on the enormous interest generated in your project Indiegogo crowdfunding platform . In just a month managed to raise $ 20,000 - double the goal they had set - to fund their research. "It was overwhelming , I must say ," says co-founder .

On the campaign can provide small grants or Advance purchase a prototype of the product. There are four versions available in the presale , the prices vary between 65 and 600 dollars, according to the number of features and the degree of accuracy of the device . The researchers stress , however, that all initial prototypes ( buyers receive within two months) will be very basic : "Although we are delighted with the results so far, we would like to emphasize that this is a work in progress and not a finished product . Still " .


The Nordic Society for Invention and Discovery is a small laboratory founded by a group of professional communicators who discovered that " create interesting products is much more fun than advertising or public relations." Besides Woof No More is determined to develop other equally unusual devices like flying carpet by magnets , the shotgun that shoots seeds of flowers instead of bullets or hammock chair that recharges your tablet

SAMSUNG GALAXY S5

NEW SAMSUNG GALAXY S5

Samsung has introduced its new Galaxy S5 and readies for market model that aims to maintain its privileged status within the high-end Android.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 just be exposed in Barcelona and we have found a terminal continuity in almost all design , finished in plastic screen but with news that the Galaxy S5 can now say that it is waterproof and includes a biometric identifier of our footprint on the start button and a sensor to measure our pulse on the rear.

Samsung Galaxy S5:

 Waterproof:

If the Galaxy S4 with the Korean company not risked in the design , sure to keep ( in my opinion quite rightly , but not everyone sees it that) some personality in the terminal , with the new Samsung Galaxy S5 we have more of the same. Are three generations with little change and that can be passed as invoice level recognize that something has changed.

The design of the Samsung Galaxy S5 remains mild in shapes and finished in plastic , even simulating the skin as in Note 3 with a perforated design that should be more comfortable to hold than just plastic. It is true that we also have in simulating metal frame , but it is still plastic, which can leave it another year away in that section of the other large terminal segment and maintain a certain group of consumers feel that with these finishes can not qualify for a premium price or really considered high end .
S5 Galaxy Finish

Where did you successful with your new Samsung phone is to give resistance to water and dirt. That IP67 protection against dirt and water do we meet with something that might not appeal to everyone : a cover for the microUSB 3.0 port. Yes, it's a real chore having to remove it and put it .

The 2k screen will have to wait:

All hopes to see a revolution in this Galaxy S5 were on your screen if we ignore the issue of design and finish. But there was no surprise and Koreans have maintained the Super AMOLED screen of 5 inches ( specifically 5.1 inches) with 1080p resolution. Nothing for 2k resolution as many expected for this MWC 2014. Surely that leap Samsung chooses to save for your other favorite son today, the Galaxy Note 3 which improves every year.

In terms of basic features , there is no big surprises. We have the Galaxy S5 driven by a quad-core processor at 2.5 Ghz , with 2 GB of RAM ( 3GB nothing like the Note) and the choice model with 16 or 32 GB, expandable with microSD cards .
The battery gives us the feeling that has been somewhat lagging behind rivals and is " only " 2800 mAh , yes, can be exchanged . Samsung promises 10 hours of web browsing and up to 12 in video playback, which is a very high amount .
S5 galaxy screen.


The dimensions of the Samsung Galaxy S5 remain in good shape, with a weight of 145 grams and 8.1 mm thickness . High and has 142 mm wide, 72.5 mm. As for connectivity , for almost everything: LTE , microUSB 3.0, NFC , Ant + , Blueooth 4.0, Wifi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac and infrared port . Curious is the function called Download Booster , linking WiFi and LTE connectivity while for large downloads.

The camera of the Galaxy S5 , now faster:

Samsung has placed its Galaxy S5 a new 16 megapixel sensor (secondary 2 MP ) seeking to reassert itself as one of the best cameras in the segment, but in the end , many of its rivals eventually win the game to media less so . Camera for Galaxy S5 has opted to improve the operating speed ( 0.3 seconds autofocus ) and include more improvements at the software level .


It is striking Selective Focus system, which as we are seeing in many terminals , allows an image using software refocus after taking the photo . Also the HDR mode has been improved and Samsung wants the option to choose when to take a picture with a lot of dynamic range. In this Galaxy S5 we can see in real time how I wanted this functionality if we apply the photo.

Galaxy S5 in hand
Another expected for the Samsung Galaxy S5 camera function is 4K/UHD video recording . Note they maintained three expected that the Samsung also added to this new Galaxy . It is also a function of these media that stand in packaging and cloud the view of consumers with "gross " megapixels.

The fingerprint reader on the start button:

And also pulse
The Galaxy S5 had to include a biometric identifier or yes . He saw it coming and finally been no surprises and Samsung has integrated into the start button. Given the oval shape of this button and its smaller size finger, Samsung system works by sliding your finger on the button.
This way we can identify include up to three users , and here Samsung has not been as conservative as Apple and opened a little hand . Payments , for example Paypal, be authorized to use our footprint instead of the usual password.
galaxy gold S5

The surprise of the Galaxy we have found a sensor located right next to the LED flash camera . Wherever it is logical that the index finger or heart supported Samsung has placed a small camera in the style of the Press Withings that is able to measure our beats and give information about how our heart goes to the suite of the company that wants cuantificarnos maximum .

Samsung Galaxy S5 Price and Availability:

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is expected to arrive on the market soon and will do with Android 4.4.2 . It will be on April 11 when we can buy it, but not yet announced price or reviewers for launch operators in different markets .
