BaiduChina’s leading search engine companyhas unveiled its own eyewear called Baidu EyeIt is said to be a different product from Google Glass in terms of functionality
The company demonstrated a working prototype on September 3 at its annual Technology Innovation Conference in BeijingIt bears a similarity to Google Glassbut it has no screenInsteadthe device uses a camera to scan objectsand focuses on analyzing information around its user and beaming that to a smart phone
Baidu says the device is designed to support image searchThe company’s CEO Robin Li believes in five years’ timepeople will get used to searching by image and audio rather than textLi has given an example of how one can take advantage of Baidu EyeIf you are in a shopping mall and come across a woman whose skirt looks really attractiveyou take a photo of her skirt using Baidu Eyeand you’ll get to know where to buy one for yourself
According to Kaiser KuoBaidu’s director of international communicationsBaidu Eye can also recognize voice and gestureYou can use voice commandsor gesture commandslike expanding to zoomor circling an object in your field of view with your finger
Baidu is yet to announce a release date or marketing plans for Baidu Eye

Engineers who build and program robots have fascinating jobsThese researchers tinker(修补)with machines in the lab and write computer software to control these devicesThey’re the best toys out theresays Howle Choset at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh Choset is a roboticista person who designsbuilds or programs robots
When Choset was a kidhe was interested in anything that movedcarstrainsanimalsHe put motors on Tinkertoy cars to make them moveLaterin high schoolhe built mobile robots similar to small cars
Hoping to continue working on robotshe studied computer science in collegeBut when he got to graduate school at the Califomia Institute of Technology in PasadenaChoset’s lab mates were working on something even cooler than remotely controlled cars：robotic snakesSome robots can move only forwardbackwardleft and rightBut snakes can twist (扭曲)in many directions and travel over a lot of different types of terrain(形)Snakes are far more interesting than the carsChose t concluded
After he started working at Carnegie MellonChose t and his colleagues there began developing their own snake robots Choset’s team programmed robots to perform the same movements as real snakessuch as sliding and inching forwardThe robots also moved in ways that snakes usually don’tsuch as rolling
Choset’s snake robots could crawl(爬行)through the grassswim in a pond and even climb a flagpole
But Choset wondered if his snakes might be useful for medicine as wellFor some heart surgeriesthe doctor has to open a patient’s chestcutting through the breastboneRecovering from these surgeries can be very painful What if the doctor could perform the operation by instead making a small hole in the body and sending in a thin robotic snake
Choset teamed up with Marco Zenatia heart surgeon now at Harvard Medical Schoolto investigate the ideaZenati practiced using the robot on a plastic model of the chest and they tested the robot in pigs
A company called Med robotics in Boston is now adapting the technology to surgeries on people
Even after 15 years of working with his team’s creationsI still don’t get bored of watching the motion of my robotsChose t says
[判断题]

Here’s a crazy ideaCombine bioprinting and tissue engineering toprintanimal products and tackle some of the planet’s biggest problemsAnimal farmingafter allaccounts for about half of all humancaused greenhouse gasestaking place on onethird of the availablenonfrozen land on EarthAll to feed people’s appetites for 300 million tons of meat a year
Modern Meadow is a Miss ourbased start up that engineers tissues to create labgrown edible meatin a process that eliminates many of the negative environment effects associated with traditional livestock practices
The company claims that by carefully layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structureinvitro meat production becomes feasibleIt’s set a shortterm goal of printing as liver of meat around two centimeters by one centimeterand less than half a millimeter thickwhich is edible
The company explains in a submission to the United States Department of Agriculture：The technology has several advantages in comparison to earlier attempts to engineer meat in vitroThe bioink particles can be reproducibly prepared with mixtures of cells of different typePrinting ensures consistent shapewhile postprinting structure formation and maturation in the bioreactor facilitates conditioning
Howeverit admits that the road ahead is strewn with difficultiesThe consumer acceptance of such products may not be without challengesWe expect it will first appeal to culinary earlyadopter consumers and the segment of the vegetarian community that rejects meat for ethical reasonsWith reduction in priceit can reach the masses with religious restrictions on meat consumption(people restricted to HinduKosherHalal diets)and finally populations with limited access to safe meat production
Whatever the final outcomelabgrown edible meat is no longer in the realm of science fictionIt is coming
[判断题]
◆Animal farming is responsible for the occurrence of greenhouse gases
[答案]T
◆Modern Meadow is a newlystarted business which aims to make profits by producing labgrown edible meat
[答案]F
◆The method Modern Meadow adopted to produce invirto meat is by layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure
[答案]T
◆There is no meat engineered outside living bodies before
[答案]F
◆This labgrown meat has already widely received by the masses
[答案]F

Something else could becoming soon to a vehicle near you：more technologythe kind that could help your car talk to others around itUnlike some proposed cars of the futureit would not actually do the driving for youBut it could warn you about what other drivers are doingThe USgovernment may require this feature in the futurebut it would add to the cost of the car
Vehicles of the future could be cars that talk to the driver and each otherThe USgovernment wants them on the road soonpushing for technology that would warn drivers of danger coming from any direction
It’s called vehicletovehicle technologyCars would send wireless messages to each other within about 300 yardscommunicating information like speeddirection and GPS position ten times per secondWhen cars share this informationthey can account for all the vehicles around themwhich means they are able to identify possible crashes
The technology sees around cornersover hills and through other vehiclesFor examplemy car will tell me that there are five cars just ahead of meand I can slowdown beforehand while the vehicle ahead sends my car a message giving me enough time to react
33000 Americans are killed and 23 million injured in car crashes every yearThe Department of Transportation(Do T)predictstalking cars could prevent up to 80 percent of crashes involving sober drivers
Five major car companies have been working with Do T on developing and testing the technology3000 cars are already using it as part of a government pilot testSome tine after 2016the USgovernment hopes your car will be able to communicate with you
While Do T hopes to make this technology the rule by 2016it will still need the public to weigh in before anything is finalizedNowas for privacythe government says that data sent between cars doesn’t record personal informationso your privacy should not be compromised

The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenlymaking some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block unevenreported ARN (Australian Radio Network) to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printerBut the architects remain optimisticThe first few printed blocks are meant to be test pieces as they improve the process
It takes about a week to print a 3meter high block right nowThe project’s leaders hope to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a yearand the entire house in less than 3 years
Ultimately3D Print Canal House is an architectural research projectone that is very much being conducted in the public eyeyou can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site for 250 Euros
The top floors will become more ornatefor exampleas newer techniques are incorporatedThey’ll explore the possibilities of 3D printinglike the honeycomb walls or an entire room recycledredesignedand built anewNobody’s going to move into a 3D printed house soonbutif anyone ever doessomething might be learned from this experiment by the canal
