NOW A SMART UMRELLLA THAT PREDICTS RAIN TOO

A   Company  in  France  has  developed  a  new  ,smart  umbrella  that ,  when  paired  with  a smart  phone  app,can  not  only  predict  the  weather   but  also  send you   a   notification,if  you  leave  it  behind . The  name  given  to  it  is  'Oombrella'.It  is fitted  with  a  capsule  having  sensors     for  air pressure,humidity,temperature    and  light . This   set  up  allows  umbrella to  tell  whether  or  not  rain  in  next   fifteen  minutes,notifying   the  user  via  an  app.It  can  also  record  weather data   and   can  held the  camera  on  top.The  capsule  also  has  an  integrated  buzzer  and light  so  that  user  can  be  alerted  when  they  get  a  call. The  ribs  of the  umbrella   are  made  of  kevlar ,  a  synthetic  fiber  of  high tensile   strength. The  company  Wezzoo,  the  device   is  "really  wind  resistant"  with  the  capability  of  withstanding   storms, hailstorms   and  snow storms .The  handle  has  a

NEW FOUND-A PATTERN IN PRIME NUMBERS.

Two  academics have  shocked  the  world   of  Mathematics  by  discovering  a  pattern  in  Prime  numbers. Primes  -  numbers  greater  than  1  that  are  divisible   only  by    themselves   and  1  - are  considered   the  'building  blocks '  of   mathematics,  because  every  number  is either  a  prime  or  can  be  built  by  multiplying  prime  numbers  together  -84  ,  for  example ,   is  2x2x3x7. The  properties  of  prime  numbers  have  baffled  number  theorists  for  centuries ,  but   mathematicians   have  felt  safe   working  on  the  assumption  they could  treat  prime  numbers as  if   they  occur  randomly  . Now  ,  however  Kanman  Soumdararajan  and  Robert   Lemke  Oliver  of  Stanford  University   in  the  US  have  discovered   that  when  it  comes  to   the  last  digit  of  prime  numbers , there  is  a kind of  pattern . Apart  from  2  and  5 ,  all  prime numbers  have  to   end in  1,3,7or  9   so  that  they  can't  be divi

NOW DOODLE TO UNLOCK YOUR SMART PHONE.

Soon  ,you  will  be  able   to  log  into  your  smart phone  with  sweeping  gestures  or  doodling  by  using  one  or  more  fingers. Researchers   from  Rutgers University  in  the  US  have  performed  the  first  study  of  free-form   gestures   passwords  for  smart phones  in  the  field .Free-  form  gestures passwords   allow  people  to  draw a password    of  any  shape  with  any  number  of  fingers,researchers  said. The  results  show  that  free-form  gesture  passwords  are  a serious  alternative   to  text or  other  log-in  methods  ,especially  for  mobile  devices ,  they  said.Free  -form  passwords  are  very   suitable  for  touchscreens ,  faster  to  use , easy  to  remember  and  most importantly  hard  to  guess. "preventing  people  from  hacking  into  your  smartphone  is  a  major  issue ,  and  it  becomes  more  important   because  people  carry  their  smartphone  every where",Said  janne-  Lindqvist from   Rutgers  University. &

NOW THE 'NOT COMS' IN THE WEB.

New research suggests that a lack of remaining domain names with easy to remember – and consequently valuable – word combinations is restricting Internet growth, with an untapped demand of as much as 25% of all current domains being held back. The study’s author contends that the findings show ICANN’s release of new top level domains could prove a wise policy.  As the digital age dawned, pioneers successfully snapped up broad swathes of the most popular and memorable domain names, such as nouns, places and combinations thereof – claiming valuable ‘virtual real estate’ under the top level domains such as dot-com, dot-co-dot-UK and so on. Now, the first research to try and define current demand for Internet domain names suggests that the drying up of intuitive and familiar word combinations has seen domain registration drop far below the expected appetite, given the extent to which we now live online, with new entrepreneurs struggling to find “their slice” of vi

STAY YOUNG -KEY TO STAY WRINKLE FREE FOUND

For the first time, scientists have identified the activity of a metabolic enzyme found in the batteries of human skin cells declines with age, an advance that may lead to powerful anti-aging treatments.  A Newcastle University study, published online in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, has found that the activity of mitochondrial complex II significantly decreases in older skin.  This discovery brings experts a step closer to developing powerful anti-aging treatments and cosmetic products which may be tailored to counteract the decline in the enzyme's  activity levels, researchers said. The findings may also lead to a greater understanding of how other organs in the body age, which could pave the way for drug developments in a number of age-related diseases, including cancer.  As our bodies age, we see that the batteries in our cells run down, known as decreased bio-energy, and harmful free radicals increase," said Mark Birch-Machin, Professor of M
