Abstract of research paper

The project has two parts: The first is the theoretical part, which explains the history of Golden ratio, how it changes the vision of science and its attributes and characteristics. Also, this number appears in an amount of artworks, like "La Gioconda" of Leonardo da Vinci and "The Last Supper" of the same artist, and I show how the artist used it.
The second part is the practical where I am focus on the Golden ration in nature. I mesure persons because I wanted to know if we have the Golden ratio in the body and thanks to this we know if we are "perfect".

Doctors weigh in on dangers of Wi-Fi signal exposure

News link

 

All the people that you meet use a mobile phone and most of them a smartphone. And its necessary Wi-Fi or 3G if you aren't in home for to use apps like whatsapp, instagram or twitter. Possibly you and most of the people that use them don't know the danger of this and the consequences that can produce. Particularly this is too bad for children, because their heads are less dense and transmission can be increased. But nowadays, unfortunately they use the smartphone from an early age.
A study with animals that they are exposed to microwave radiation which are used in Wi-fi and cell phones have fewer neurons in their fetuses. For this reason we need to take care using this technology and use some solutions that help us to reduce this radiation.
One of the best solutions (if you can't stop to use the mobile) to reduce this microwave radiation is turn on the airplane mode when we go to sleep.

'El Chapo' returned to Mexico Altiplano prison

Hendo 2.0: The $10,000 hoverboard that will send you right into the future

News link

The Hendo 2.0

Who don't see "Back to the future" and wish to have a skateboard like the film, that can levitate. Well this technology is not so far away.
The hoveboard called Hendo use a technology what is known "Magnetic Field Architecture". This new invention is the result of a collaboration with skateboard maestro Tony Hawk. The explanation how work this invention for levitate according Greg Henderson, co-founder and CEO of Arx Pax, the company behind the invention: "The hover engine creates a primary magnetic field which is then put over a candidate surface like aluminum or copper. The hover engine then creates swirls of electricity and those create a secondary magnetic field, which propels the firsts." The co-founders think that this technology can be so useful in many sectors of the industry.

200-year-old fossil mystery resolved

News link

   A virtual model of the reptile was constructed from a German plesiosaur known as MeyerasaurusHow the plesiosaur might have looked

Called plesiosaurs are predatory marine reptiles that lived at the time of the dinosaurs. The plesiosaur was discovered by the fossil hunter Mary Anning in 1821. Scientists have reconstructed this ancient reptile. 
On the last years the scientists tried to know how this reptile moves. The debate has continued until today, because the paleontologists were divided on whether the marine creature used its four limbs for rowing like turtles and penguins or some sort of combination of the two. The study, published in the scientific journal PLOS ONE, is based on a computer simulation of a Jurassic fossil from Germany. This simulation suggest that the plesiosaur moved through the water like a penguin, using its front limbs as paddles and back limbs for steering.
Dr Smith and co-researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta say: "We conclude that plesiosaurs were forelimb-dominated swimmers that used their hind limbs mainly for manoeuvrability and stability."

This Super Stylish Smartwatch Was Designed for the Blind

News link


 

Students and entrepreneurs from the United States and South Korea has developed a smartwatch for the blind. This smartwatch is called Dot and can show four braille characters at a time. Each character space has six active pins that rise and fall to produce the combinations of the braille alphabet and numerical system. 
The watch connects vie Bluetooth to a smartphone and uses a actuator powered by magnets to raise and lower the pins. Dot can shows texts, notifications, tweets and the time. If the user recive notifications this machine will vibrate. Before this new invention the blind people only can use smarthphones with vocal systems like Siri to read texts out loud.
You can start to buy Dot in the United States and Canada sometime in 2016 for $300, more cheaply than the existing braille machines.
This will be so helpful for the social life of blind people, but I don't think that is extremely necessary for a person.

Virtual reality


Currently the virtual reality is on the top the of innovation in the entertainment industry and many enterprises (like HTC, Sony, Microsoft and Facebook) are interested in this and they invest a lot of money to be the first. But now a days not all the people can buy this because for the moment it isn't on the market. When you play with any machine of virtual reality, you can see thanks a special glasses a new world (the world of the video game that are you playing). When you move the head the glasses detect this movement and move the screen that you see with the same direction and movement that you move your head. Fortunately this technology is very investigate and on less than a year this virtual reality will be on the market, but no one knows the price of this.
