LCD in a contact lens Scientists have built

Research Center at the University of Ghent in Belgium has developed a process for producing spherical LCD tiny size, which can be integrated into a contact lens and completely redo the form. Scientists' sample is a lens display, ability to display the dollar. This character can not burn or burn, any image can not be displayed. In addition, the wires connected to it that sends current to the liquid crystal matrix. Scientists believe that over time, based on the current design, they are able to create a completely self-contained unit. It is assumed that the first stage of such devices to be used for medical purposes, for example to protect a damaged retina or iris of the eyes from bright light, and in cosmetics - as a way of painting the eye in any color, in the case of the integration of the color LCD. Subsequently, the researchers plan to develop a display that can display any color image. Lens with such displays can cast the computer image on top of which the human eye sees, and will replace the glasses augmented reality, such as a untwisted now Google Glass. In addition, these lenses can be replaced sunglasses - and they will not need to shoot every time. It will be enough to disable the current and the lenses become transparent, or enable current to darken. Turn on or off the lens can light sensor.

But before that, developers have to overcome a number of difficulties, said project manager Jelly De Smet (Jelle De Smet). "If we talk about the flexible LCD screen, usually it is not a spherical displays. Create such a display was the biggest challenge for us, "- said the scientist. He added that the need to improve the quality of the display, so it can be safely applied on the eyeball. Despite many technological difficulties, the scientists believe that the first commercial lenses with built-in display can be on the market within a few years. "We have mastered the core technology. Now we can start working on the real version of "- researchers said.

OLED-TV, as opposed to liquid-crystal televisions, need no backlight, because the light emitting LEDs themselves. They are thinner than LCD models consume significantly less power, they have a high-quality color reproduction and wider viewing angles and almost instant "response matrix" - at the expense of the image on the screen is blurred even in dynamic scenes. The main disadvantage of the devices interfere with their active market entry is the high price. The main reason for the high cost of OLED TVs - a large percentage of defects in production.

Download free TurboCAD Professional 7 new version

The market is flocking to a lot of software for CAD (Computer Aided Design). Among the myriad of programs that overlook this large market share there are some who are finally able to compete with those who first ruled unchallenged at the top of the charts of software universally recognized. In our specific case, this market was dominated until a few years ago by Autodesk, with its AutoCAD. The question to ask in evaluating the goodness of a CAD surely something must be able to do to meet the needs of those who uses it?. The minimum that is required of every CAD software that is capable of producing technical drawings that can be easily read and understood by the departments who are dedicated to the production and implementation of projects. Obviously this is not enough, especially when you run into a giant that already dominates the market. TurboCAD certainly allaltezza of the situation, particularly with regard to the 2D drawing. And yet capable of excellent results in the field of 3D, including a wide range of tools, some of which have been updated questultima release 7.0. The 70 new features and improvements over version 6.5 are definitely a plus, but anyone using TurboCAD will have the light of its compatibility with the market leader AutoCAD, as capable of successfully open all files in DWG format each version of AutoCAD to release 2000i. This allows TurboCAD to compete on a functional level, breaking down the barriers of standardization suffered from the market. To quote some of the new features we can say that the print lanteprima been greatly improved, to allow the positioning of the drawing sheet in more ways. So as in AutoCAD, these layouts are accessible via cell similar to excel, along the bottom of the screen. Regarding the 3D rendering options for the models now allow even the rendering of hidden lines from the perspective , as well as now you can have a scheme Clipping placed around the room. Lapplicazione lighting effects to 3D objects is achieved through an object now Light Object, absent in previous versions. Speaking dellinterfaccia user, we believe that the system of TurboCAD men could be more intuitive. For example, the men Insert contains objects like Dimensions, Camera, Text, Arcs. This is a detail that can be a problem because the classification is not natural for one who has studied architectural design or engineering, although it is incredibly more intuitive for anyone who has a background, so to speak, amateur. The only doubt we are working on what TurboCAD 7 may not be a significant upgrade to its previous version. If you are new to CAD, you can consider as a good option TurboCAD alternative to AutoCAD LT 2002 Autodesk, as it costs the half and has more or less the same wealth of features.

According to rumors a few days ago, Google Inc. is preparing to acquire YouTube for one billion and 600 million dollars. The IT business is paying close attention to this rumor, based on rumors and word of mouth among employees closest to the parties involved.
