Attendance system based on Real time Face recognition using Raspberry Pi I always wondered face recognition is a difficult task and never dared to attempt it. I never had a powerful tool to perform face recognition in real time. Seeing people do it with MATLAB, made up …

Have you ever thought of electric become reality?
The revolution is just on the way. Tesla motors have launched a series of electric cars even for racing. Here is the story about the TESLA Motors and its CEO Elon Musk so called "The living Iron Man"

What are the basic components of a robot?

-A moveable body -- Robots may have wheels, limbs connected by mechanical joints, or other types of moveable segments.
-An actuator -- In order to be activated, robots may use an electric motor, a hydraulic system, a pneumatic system or a combination of all three.
-A power source -- A robot needs a power source to drive its actuators. Electric robots use batteries or extension cord. Hydraulic robots need pumps to pressurize the hydraulic fluid, and pneumatic robots need air compressors.
-An electrical circuit -- The electrical circuit powers the electric motor, solenoid or valves that control hydraulic or pneumatic systems.
-A reprogrammable brain (computer) -- The computer controls all other components. In order to change the robot's behavior, you just have to reprogram the computer.
A sensory system -- Some robots have the ability to collect information about their environment and react to it.

ARM:
ARM is a family of instruction set architectures for computer processors based on a reduced instruction set computing (RISC) architecture developed by British company ARM Holdings.
A RISC-based computer design approach means ARM processors require significantly fewer transistors than typical CISC x86 processors in most personal computers. This approach reduces costs, heat and power use. These are desirable traits for light, portable, battery-powered devices—including smartphones, laptops, tablet and notepad computers, and other embedded systems. A simpler design facilitates more efficient multi-core CPUs and higher core counts at lower cost, providing improved energy efficiency for servers.
ARM Holdings develops the instruction set and architecture for ARM-based products, but does not manufacture products. The company periodically releases updates to its cores. Current cores from ARM Holdings support a 32-bit address space and 32-bit arithmetic; the ARMv8-A architecture, announced in October 2011,[6] adds support for a 64-bit address space and 64-bit arithmetic. Instructions for ARM Holdings' cores have 32 bits wide fixed-length instructions, but later versions of the architecture also support a variable-length instruction set that provides both 32 and 16 bits wide instructions for improved code density. Some cores can also provide hardware ex*****on of Java bytecodes.
ARM Holdings licenses the chip designs and the ARM instruction set architectures to third parties, who design their own products that implement one of those architectures—including systems-on-chips (SoC) that incorporate memory, interfaces, radios, etc. Currently, the widely used Cortex cores, older "classic" cores, and specialized SecurCore cores variants are available for each of these to include or exclude optional capabilities. Companies that make chips that implement an ARM architecture include Apple, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Samsung Electronics, and Texas Instruments.
Globally ARM is the most widely used instruction set architecture in terms of quantity produced.The low power consumption of ARM processors has made them very popular: over 50 billion ARM processors have been produced as of 2014, thereof 10 billion in 2013 and "ARM-based chips are found in nearly 60 percent of the world’s mobile devices". In 2008, 10 billion chips had been produced.The ARM architecture (32-bit) is the most widely used architecture in mobile devices, and most popular 32-bit one in embedded systems. In 2005, about 98% of all mobile phones sold used at least one ARM processor.According to ARM Holdings, in 2010 alone, producers of chips based on ARM architectures reported shipments of 6.1 billion ARM-based processors, representing 95% of smartphones, 35% of digital televisions and set-top boxes and 10% of mobile computers

Creating instant prints from a digital camera is one of the new electronic inventions in printing. The Polaroid PoGo™ is a small portable printer that weighs only a few ounces.

The printer produces full color 2" x 3" prints using an "inkless" technology. The images are created from heat activated crystals in the photo paper. The photos are water proof, tear proof and smear proof.

This new electronic invention connects to a digital camera using a USB cable, or to a mobile phone through wireless Bluetooth. It uses rechargeable batteries or an AC adapter.

Digital Pen

A digital pen is one of the new electronic inventions that can help us record information.

Despite the digital age, we still use pens. But it would be great to have our handwritten notes and drawings digitally recorded without having to use a scanner.

The Zpen from Dane-Elec is a wireless pen that uses a clip-on receiver to digitally record what you write.

It uploads the information to your computer where it can be viewed, edited and filed as a word processing document.

The digital pen utilizes character recognition software and works by recording movement. Features include profile creation, a dictionary and fifteen language options.
