The Virtual Reality is the star of the Tokyo Game Show expo from this year, open in the capital of Japan. VR imposed itself with as major technical evolution, not only on the games market, because it manages to create a true parallel world and a second life, with the help of a virtual helmet. According to the co-founder of the Fove company (that produces a VR helmet), Lochlainn … [Read more...]
A project of clouds and artificial rain production will be tested in Vietnam
A project of 'clouds seeding' and of artificial rain production, will be tested next month in Vietnam. The technological company Sinh Xanh Science from Da Nang proposed to the government of this country a $224 million allocation to buy ships and airplanes needed to 'make' artificial rain in order to combat the drought and to prevent the flooding.

The discovery, published in the Nature Communications, could make that, in the far away future, the women to be eliminated from the process of … [Read more...]
AXIS launches a focus laser technology dedicated to the PTZ video cameras
When there are difficult illumination conditions, the traditional PTZ cameras have difficulties with the focus and video quality. The new AXIS Q6155-E integrates a laser technology that measures that distance between the camera and the objects. In this way, the focus is made faster and with a bigger accuracy, the camera recording clear images every time. AXIS Q6155-E integrates … [Read more...]
