It became common to plant encapsulated radio tags inside animals to reveal its identity,more clearly by knowing the radio tag  details of an elephant we could know who is the owner of the elephant?if the  registration of that animal is made legal?does it reported for any kind of disease and so on. But now the idea comes to apply it in humans, that each human is planted with a chip encapsulated in a plastic covering,it wont affect any of our body parts neither we feel any discomfort.And the size of it is as small as a rice grain,But by checking the details in the chip an authority could know our name,address,nationality,criminal records and everything.So the government or higher official think it as remedy to prevent the wild spreading terrorism.At first there was a large protest for read more

Could carbon nano tube wires could replace copper wires which is used as inter connectors in chips?Earlier about 7years before the question was not this could copper wire can replace aluminum interconnectors and it happened aluminium interconnectors were replaced by more conducting copper wires.But the fast moving world demands more and more  compact  chips  with a lot more functions.By 2012 its expected that we require less than 40 nano meter wide interconnectors to make this chips.But at that size the resistance of copper wire is high that it could slow down the signaling. Last month in the Material Research Society’s spring meeting in San Francisco, a team of scientists from Stanford and Toshiba claimed that they have used carbon nanotubes to make the logic components of read more

North eastern Australia scarce much in water and many projects were launched to improve the water level of this area but non was fruitful.Of this the importance was given to a  mechanical process called reverse osmosis. What this process does is the desalination of salt water which is much abundantly available in those areas.But this process requires the cleaning, replacement  etc of the semi permeable membrane through which the salinated water has to be passed under high pressure.Another method uses electric field to drive ions across membranes.But all this measures didn’t worth much and owing to its high cost couldn’t make an impact on water scarce areas. So resembling the latter technology a new technology was introduced named CDIs technology ie the Capacitive read more

Seems like a Hollywood movie ??? No its real a machine spider built as part of festival conducted in Liverpool during the month of September.At first the big arachnoid took the breath of many for a moment,children yelled out of terror.The huge 15 m terror wandered the streets for two days accompanied by a group of musicians and other artists.It was built by a French company named La Machine. The spider has got a steel body with wooden frames and controlled using 50 hydraulic actuators.It required more than a dozen of operator and a wheeled crane was used to move its entire body.And it may be the most expensive spider to buy and it costs about £2 million.Rumours were spread that the spider would appear in many cities in the coming year. read more
