HELICOPTERS

HELICOPTERSThe helicopter rotary wing aircraft unit, which are necessary for flight lift and thrust generated by one or more rotors (propellers) driven by an engine or multiple engines. Almost every time the main rotor of the helicopter is equipped with a swash, which moves the center of pressure of the propeller for flight control (with the exception of some schemes with 3 or more rotors).

In the case of a single drive rotor, it is obligatory mechanism for damping its torque (often a tail rotor or fenestron, less ink-jet device, etc.), and in mnogolistovyh diagrams, torque usually kompensiruet the counter-rotation cores rotors. If the screw is driven in rotation by jet engines mounted on the blades, the torque is almost not noticeable and freely kompensiruet aerodynamic control surfaces. To unload the rotor at high speed, the helicopter can be equipped with a well-developed wing, to increase directional stability can in turn be used plumage.

VIEWING THREE-DIMENSIONAL CONTENT

VIEW-CONTENTSony Corporation officially announced the launch of serial production of new head display HMZ-T1 device that will open an innovative method of viewing three-dimensional and two-dimensional content. The device simply fits over the head and serves as a virtual screen, which is equivalent to 750 inch real.

HMZ-T1 has recently developed OLED-panel, the size of which is 0.7 inches. The resolution of such a panel составляет1280 x 720. Thanks to this panel HMZ-T1 provides high-definition and contrast, making the picture quality is just incredible. In addition, the device consists of separate panels for the right and left eyes, enabling the display of independent images in high resolution, realizing a three-dimensional effect.

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL OF THE AIRCRAFT OF THE FUTURE

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL OF THE AIRCRAFT OF THE FUTUREThe instrument panel of the aircraft of the future – one big touch screen.
Aircraft cabins of the future in the near future to get rid of many measuring and indicating devices and controls. Of course, they are some of the most important, still remain, but everything else will be placed on one large interactive touch screen, the development of which is now engaged in Thales. Thales, a French aerospace company, on request of the European Commission creates a new screen, in fact, a remote control airplane that pilots can adjust yourself with the purpose of on the screen will display the most-needed information at the right time.

CARS FOR KIDS COURSE

CARS FOR KIDS COURSEPedal cars of the type “Card” and “the idea of crossbreeding”, produced by our industry, are very popular with children. But these machines could be even more widespread, when combined with D-6 engine from a motorbike and a bit modified. The result is a real baby sports car.

 

When my nine year old daughter, Vita (the way, she began to ride from the age of seven) leaves the yard in his car it is of interest not only in children but also in adults. Wanting to ride ia car rife. And ride everyone, boys and girls aged 6 to 12 years.

 

Vehicle speed up to 30 km h For beginners it is too much, but there is a simple device which at first can be limited to 10-15 km/h.

 

Driving a car is not difficult — because of the management bodies of all four: wheel, brake and two pedals — the left pedal is the clutch, and the right of the gas pedal.

ROBOT VACUUM FROM LG ELECTRONICS

ROBOT VACUUM CLEANER FROM LG ELECTRONICSCorporation LG Electronics announced the robot vacuum cleaner Roboking VR680VMNC, which will be demonstrated at IFA 2011.

The highlight of the new product lies in the fact that the device has three cameras, allowing you to capture images of the surrounding space, so the robot is also a video surveillance system, transmitting the image via wifi to your device user.

Device control is also carried out with the help of a Communicator who can act as a remote control. With this robotic vacuum cleaner is able to recognize at a distance up to five feet a voice command.
