High Capicity Color Barcode: future of barcodes

the era of black and white lines patching your commodities containing just prices and model no. has ended , as color barcodes take the front with their high payload and smaller size. Currently laboratory tests have yielded using eight colors, 2,000 binary bytes, or 3,500 alphabetical characters per square inch in its highest density form using a 600dpi business card scanner. This equates to two pages of a novel. The symbol size can be changed to accommodate the differing fidelities of imaging devices. The barcode can be printed using a regular inkjet or laser jet printer.

The High Capacity Color Barcode barcode has integrated digital signing features using state-of-the-art Elliptic Curve Cryptography, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) techniques. The purpose of digital signing authenticates the integrity of the data stored in the barcode, ensuring the data is unmodified from the original author.

Rice and IBM !!!

Well if it would have been ‘chips and IBM‘ it would have made more sense but ‘rice and IBM‘ seem to be a fanatic idea,

but it is not, IBM has launched a program to develop stronger strains of rice that could produce crops with larger and more nutritious yields. Using the enormous computing facilities available to itIBM’s World Community Grid will harness power from nearly one million individual PCs in a new initiative — “Nutritious Rice for the World” project — that will study rice at the atomic level and then combine it with traditional cross breeding techniques used by farmers throughout history.

World Community Grid will run a three-dimensional modeling program created by computational biologists at the University of Washington to study the structures of the proteins that make up the building blocks of rice. Understanding the structure is necessary to identify the function of those proteins and to enable researchers to identify which ones could help produce more rice grains, ward off pests, resist disease or hold more nutrients. In the end, this project will create the largest and most comprehensive map of rice proteins and their related functions, helping agriculturalists and farmers pinpoint which plants should be selected for cross-breeding to cultivate better crops.

Anyone with a computer and Internet access can be a part of the solution. To donate unused computer time, individuals register on www.worldcommunitygrid.org and install a free, small, secure software program onto their computers. When computers are idle, data is requested from World Community Grid’s server. These computers then perform the computations, and send the results back to the server, prompting it for a new piece of work. A screen saver will tell individuals when their computers are being used.

About world community grid

World Community Grid, the largest public humanitarian grid in existence, has 380,000-plus members who represent more than 200 countries and links to nearly one million computers. It is the volunteers that help make the difference because as each one shares their computer time, scientists are able to conduct their research faster. For example, the AfricanClimate@Home project just completed its data collection, and research analysis will now begin.

How to sell a p1 128mb ram PC in 1 crore

the answer is simple studd it with diamonds , any “girl” wil buy it .it’s a well known and practiced technique for many of the leaders in business,

why just pc it can be a 1960’s gamebox or a mp3 player designed exclusively for pet animals

dont believe it!!!

Hannover Messe 2008

fantastic technology at display

“The clearest symbol of 2008 Hannover Messe was the four-meter-tall EnBW EnergyTower. The tower’s daily discharge of several million volts mirrored the energy and excitement characterizing the entire event.”

Hooha robot

The actual blog

System Overview
This robot will have an on board ASUS motherboard powered by an Intel Pentium processor at its core, running a custom software written in Visual Basic and will use image processing capabilities of Roborealm embedded in the VB application. The OS will be a stripped down version of Windows XP which will happily run on 1GB RAM.

Sensors
The robot will be endowed with fixed infrared sensors on its front, rear and sides to sense its environment. These sensors will act more like ears, reacting in real-time to intruders and obstacles in its path. These sensors will allow the robot to “listen” to its surroundings and the software will compensate to avoid collisions.

For its eyes, a 3 megapixel camera will give it vision capabilities and with RoboRealm, the robot can be programmed to react to objects of different shapes and colors, as well as aid in navigation. The camera will be mounted on a turret to allow for 180deg pan angle and 90deg tilt angle.

Mechanics
The design of this robot will be quadrupedal hybrid type. ‘Quadrupedal’ implies that the robot will “walk” on four legs like any quadruped animal. ‘Hybrid’ means that it will have leg and wheel combination. While the legs will give it the Maneuverability to climb low profile objects or traverse uneven terrain, the wheels will give it the agility to react to sudden threats. While this may not exactly allow it to dodge bullets, it can, for example, move back quickly to protect itself from a slamming door or a charging dog and turn with within zero-radius.

A day in our dep

A DAY IN DEP

Well it’s well asserted that science students are witty and clever, and whoever wants to have a live proof should give us a visit .we the students of DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS IIT KHARAGPUR match the levels of great Feynman in wit and our abilities are at a peak in the classroom until we are asleep……

Well I know it’s not possible for u all to tolerate the physics class hence I present here a small account on paper, Oops sorry on web.

Class 1 electrodynamics: physics dep +aero dep

Prof: pass the attendance sheet..

The sheet is passed and people deliberately write their names as well as others name … chitta is by default absent

Mission complete objective achieved ,class is dispensable…

Prof: blah blah blah… (well I don’t really care)

Prabhu :sir I didn’t understand @##^*…

Prof: well if you were present in last class you would have known ,I did it

Naru:sir @#%^*()543^& @# $%^&* #$%^& (uses some intricate words)

Prof: well can you repeat the problem… in the meantime someone solves his problem)

Naru: sir he solved my problem

Prof:but what was the problem..

Silence for a while…

Prof:blah blah … (well he can do that for rest of eternity)

Everyone eyes fixed at their watch people getting anxious

Prof: ok so I stop here.. (thank god..)

Priyesh(aero):sir ,why does blah blah

Chorus: M_C_D

PROF:Blah blah …

Everyone frustrated thinking about the stuff on dc and the aftereffects

Class ends

Mr. x:sala e prabhu priyesh aur naru, maro sala inko matha bhuka diya hai

Rakesh: bahut ho gaya ,hum ghar ja rahe hain, litti khayenge…
