Create a robotic underwater suit to investigate sunken ships 'Exosuit' allows divers to move safely up to 300 meters deep. Your next mission will be to Antikythera Island to explore one of the most prolific shipwrecks known   A hybrid between submarine spacecraft and space suit will allow a team of researchers to explore, more accurately than ever, the wreck of the Island of Antikythera. Exosuit is a metal frame, with articulated arms and legs, capable of transporting a person up to 300 meters deep. And once submerged, move freely and recover all kinds of objects. Exosuit is an experimental vehicle-suit built by the Canadian company Nuytco Research . Its first owner is JF White, one of the companies responsible for wastewater treatment in New York City. Now they have lent it to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), the largest independent research center of the seas, to explore the remains of Anticitera again. Near this Greek island was found, at the beg...

Almost any car can be transformed into a hybrid Students from Middle Tennessee University have created a system that, for about $ 3,000, is capable of transforming any car into a half electric and half combustion model   A research team at Middle Tennessee University (MTSU) has created a system capable of converting almost any car into a hybrid for about $ 3,000. To achieve this, they have manufactured a pair of electric motors that can be incorporated in the rear wheels and that allow the car to be driven up to 65 kilometers per hour. These work together with the conventional engine of the vehicle, and reduce their fuel consumption.    To test their technology they have reconverted a 1994 Honda Accord automatic transmission into a hybrid model. They could have done it, explain the scientists, with almost any vehicle. Thanks to the two electric motors, one in each rear wheel and some modifications in the pedals, the car can now circulate thanks to the energy ...

Barcelona becomes this month the world capital of advanced computing Three scientific events will gather more than 500 experts in supercomputing in the Catalan city   The city of Barcelona will become the next 15 days in the world capital of advanced computing with the organization of three scientific events that will bring together more than 500 experts in supercomputing. More than half a thousand highly qualified computer scientists will visit the city of Barcelona this May in three events that have as their epicenter the Barcelona Supercomputing Center-National Center for Supercomputing (BSC-CNS).   The common objectives of these meetings, which will be held from today until May 23, are "the progress of research in advanced computing and how to maximize its usefulness for science and industry," the BSC reported. HiPEAC, PRACE and more The first appointment is a meeting of the HiPEAC network of excellence, which Barcelona has chosen to celebrate its ...

A bracelet against sunburn Created in Scotland, the bracelet changes color when ultraviolet exposure exceeds the recommended limits   Researchers at the University of Strathclyde, in Glasgow, have developed a simple and economical system to prevent the risks of excessive exposure to the sun: a water-resistant bracelet. The Smartsun device changes color according to the amount of exposure that the user receives from UV rays. The bracelet is originally yellow, but turns pink as the exposure increases, warning its users to put themselves in the shade. The sensitivity of this material to ultraviolet light makes it possible to warn of danger even before the skin is damaged. How does it work? The Smartsun bracelet monitor works by changing the color, a purely chemical process created by an acid-releasing agent that detects ultraviolet light and a contrast that responds to the pH levels in the indicator. The release agent is broken down by sunlight, which leads to a rapid ...

Astronomers create the first realistic virtual universe Illustris can recreate 13,000 million years of cosmic evolution in a virtual cube of 350 million light years on each side    A group of astronomers from centers such as the Harvard-Smithsonian or the German Heidelberg Institute have created a virtual universe that would make the Matrix pale. Using a computer simulation named Illustris , these scientists can recreate 13 billion years of cosmic evolution in a cube 350 million light years on each side, all with an unprecedented resolution. "Until now, no simulation has been able to reproduce the universe on a small and large scale simultaneously," says Mark Vogelsberger, a researcher at MIT and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics , and lead author of this work, whose results appear in the edition Today's Nature    Previous attempts to simulate the universe were hampered by the lack of computing power and the complexities of the underlying ...
