The man machine symbiosis not AI implemented but HI

"Editor's note" author, Ai Tao, Shenzhen Yi Tong technology CTO, graduated in computer engineering from the University of Toronto. For many years following the "father of the world wearable computers," Professor Steve Mann, the basic research focus on the smart glasses.

Not long ago, one AI players of the media hubbub, the game AI beat professional players for the first time in human history. However, just as being "deep blue" defeated chess Grandmaster Garry puts it, this does not mean that a computer in the field instead of human chess. Not only play chess, smarter AI, it can't replace people. I believe that eventually replaced the human brain is not a computer, but "brain + computer". The future master of chess or go, not people are not computers, but most people will use computers to analyse chess. A believe that computers and computer compatible and one called Cyborg (cyborg). The man-machine symbiosis, not AI implemented, but HI.

A concept paper on (the amazing virtual world: you may not have known the smart glasses) to discuss some of the concepts the smart glasses, basically covering all the smart glasses shape, which is what we are doing. But I think, "what (What)" and "how (How)" more importantly "why (Why)". This is a framework that also represents a vision. More importantly, this is one of the core.

So, today will introduce something called Humanistic Intelligence (HI), Professor Steve Mann, the father of the computer by wear in the 90 's of the last century. Chen Dongyi uestc teacher (the earliest scholars of wearable computer) works, HI in Chinese translation is "humanistic intelligence". HI embodies the efforts of leading scholars of the last century, over the past more than 30 years, the HI direction as the guiding ideology of the smart glasses. Implementation of HI "human-computer symbiosis", the beginner's mind is what we do the smart glasses.

When I was about to leave the lab at the end of the year before last when, before the lab's name has gone from "EyeTap Personal Imaging Lab (ePI Lab)" with the words "HI Lab." Late last year, back when visiting Professor, he let me in the lab's video the new students to the University of Toronto in what my understanding of the HI. So, before I throw you out the dense text, you can first take a look at this little video below. Introduction from the lab, and that all black technology startups at the same time, I also understand HI I have in mind to simply say you. Translated subtitles in a video, I put at the end of the article, doesn't want to watch the video to see the words.

Small sweater good right? Well, set aside. Traditional sense of "human-computer interaction (HCI)" computer into two separate and isolated individuals, they communicate through a variety of I/O, which convey information. Mouse, keyboard, headphones and touch screen is the familiar interactions. However, HI ' "man-machine symbiosis" and the people as a whole computer. In this system, the computer is the second brain, aided the wearer while learning under the guidance of the users and change the world. So, as mentioned in the video, do you think you are playing the computer, computer play you.

Next, I will talk to you a little about a paper's content. This is 98, IEEE journal cover story, systematically describes every aspect of HI and HI how to guide a smart glasses have a very clear description of research and development. Due to my limited, is in need of attention, the following is a little engineer on a master thought of regurgitated cud. After I eat over a period of time from the belly up half-digested. You remember when tasting, great God are linked directly from the end of the original.

HI describes the distance the man-machine relationship, so HI implementation requires combination of man and machine, and all human-computer interaction, intelligent spectacle can be achieved to maximize the amount of information that needs to be communicated. General direction said, needed to achieve HI system has three modes of operation:

First, the Constancy (constant). To run this system must be a constant (Operationally Constant,OC), it sometimes goes to sleep, but it should not completely power down. Now using a mobile phone, it can deeply feel the importance of the OC. Battery cell phone loses the OC, it is collapsed. In addition, this system must be a constant interactive (Interactionally Constant,IC). That is, it is always in standby. In this sense, IC means OC, but OC doesn't necessarily represent the IC. Here, the reason why Apple iWatch more clearly. Cell phone in his pocket, while continuing to run, but not sustainable interaction, so there is no realization of IC; in order to shorten the "interactive distance", need a watch phone. Often people may not be able to realize the importance of constant mode, so the majority of the equipment "interactive distance" is great. HI the most basic mode of operation, a constant mode is the first step towards smart glasses. Constant model of human-computer interaction as shown in the figure below, humans and machines communicate with collaboration.

Second, Augmentation (enhancement mode). Traditional human-computer interaction usually calculated (Computation) itself as the main task. However, the HI point is calculated into the more important people in the task. Application of enhanced mode has a characteristic, is that people use the computer at the same time, doing something else. Generally speaking, this computer and "something else" is the main task of the human community. For example, when someone in the navigation, first of all, he wants to drive the road, he cannot always stare at the screen, so the road map to a convenient position within sight and voice-assisted second computer called the shortest path is not the only scheme is given. Someone (I can't drive, so not me) to pick up a female friend, he would not consider the shortest path from the first and hope that planning system has been updated and the path, realize enhanced mode system schematic. Pictured below, people can receive from the physical world (real-world) and the digital world (virtual image) information, and interact with the world.

Thirdly, Mediation (mediated). When the above two patterns can be a system implemented, this system can be mediated through mode people closer together. This time, the computer inputs and outputs and a person's perception and movement seamlessly together. In fact, us-mediated model is the computer on one of the packages. Smart glasses, for example, enhanced mode of the smart glasses could allow the wearer to see both natural light and digital optical, and mediated model of the smart glasses through a sensor light, and needs to adjust to these digital light, and finally these digital light through the device to restore it. So the wearer can feel he sees the world in a new way. However, the reality is not changed, and changed only the wearer's senses. Pictured below, the package can make people break away from reality, and people with stronger senses to feel the reality. In this sense, mediates mode enhances the ability of people.

To sum up, HI of the three models can co-exist within a system. For people, the auditory and visual signals are digital signals. Can transmit more information than auditory and Visual information a lot larger. Therefore, the interactive development of computer vision-led. Smart eyewear concept (VR,AR, and MR), virtual reality, augmented reality and mediated reality of implementation must be based on the above three modes to run. Pictured below, with three modes and can be converted to, we have a complete sketch of HI.

Of course, since it is a popular science, some things don't speak of particularly fine. Six basic signal flow in the system and its role in nature I don't do more shows. Can read here taste pretty good student I teach you to download original, original full HI detail shown in the figure below in detail. VR Box headset

Finally, attach the original link and video captions.

HI representing Humanistic Intelligence, which is the guiding ideology of our lab.

Everyone was always asking my views on artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence, really cool, but at the same time, it was cold.

Me: HI is the artificial intelligence of the heart, is a species in order to improve it, rather than the creation of a new species. VR box 3D glasses

HI in the feedback loop, and is essentially the computer as a whole.

When we study the wearable computer, follow the man-machine symbiosis.

Do you feel like playing computer, computer play you.

We have always wanted to cultivate talents with STEM literacy, namely science, technology, engineering and mathematics, but which missed out on the cultivation of the mind.

Professor Steve proposed DAST and believed that education should include:

Design, art, science and technology.

We believe: in the HI test, best students not only to write the software BUG, or make a high speed operation of the hardware.

We want you to try to find love and Excel at meeting point.

I feel for you, this can make you a Swiss engineer.

United Kingdom unmanned vehicles Lutz Pathfinder small than Google to stay MoE

Large unmanned vehicles from rot!

In the United Kingdom Government announced new rules that no one can legally hit the road the same day, United Kingdom company RDM Group could not wait to publish the first prototype of the unmanned vehicles Lutz Pathfinder. And Plan 40 unmanned vehicles in the near future in Milton Keynes the pedestrian streets of the town public works. This a serious conservative United Kingdom caught up with unmanned vehicles and smart.

United Kingdom Government Ministry of transport set up in 2014 Catapult company (currently a total of 7 branches, distributed in the United Kingdom, each studying different subjects, including the future city, digital economy, higher-value processing, renewable energy, transport systems), Lutz Autodrive project Pathfinder no vehicle is one branch.

Catapult says, "test phase" is mainly to test unmanned vehicles is reasonable compliance with United Kingdom traffic laws and insurance regulations, followed by Lutz Pathfinder will gradually spread to the public, and introduced to the United Kingdom in urban transport systems.

Lutz Pathfinder for a typical car can only carry two passengers and a top speed of 15mph, battery life is approximately 8 hours.

Catapult CEO David Keene said, Starbucks iPhone 5 Case

"This outstanding performance no one car on behalf of the United Kingdom high design standards and industry level. Lutz Pathfinder no vehicle has great potential, will create 10 million dollars in annual revenue for the company, and in the national labour market 5% Automotive Engineering jobs. "

Of course, such as London United Kingdom mega-cities, the introduction of unmanned vehicles will significantly reduce the rate of urban traffic congestion, and reduce environmental pollution and low speed will reduce the rate of traffic accidents.

Worth mentioning is that the Oxford Mobile Robotics Group research team designed full range of image capturing system for unmanned vehicles, including 22 sensors, laser imaging components, panoramic cameras and radar positioning systems.

Company executives Steve Yianni said,

"The unmanned vehicles, smart phones and social networks, for example, has greatly facilitated our life science and technology improve the future fingertips. But now the United Kingdom, of course, UAV technology leading countries of the world. "

Number of Bill Gates money to more than 2000 years to finish

　　United States-rich rich into the Forbes Magazine United States 400 richest list requires a minimum net worth of us $ 1.7 billion, which is equivalent to an average United States household wealth, 20,000 times.

　　If an American began working at age 15, and then retire at 65, you need to save $ 34 million are eligible to make the list every year. We put stress on Americans, it is because change is an ordinary Chinese people aged 15 and reach such a goal seems to be more difficult.

　　United States is the richest men, Bill Gates, he has 76 billion dollars, the second richest man Warren Buffet (Warren Buffett), he had a $ 62 billion. 14 billion dollars between them. Hello Kitty N4 case

　　Once you have tens of billions of dollars, it's hard to let wealth accumulation stopped. If Buffett to give up ambitious investments and put the money in an account, even if interest rates are low, but interest is per hour more than the average American income in one year.

　　That 400 United States rich and add up how much money you have? About 2.3 trillion. This is not only a huge number, and the fact is the United States a very considerable part of the wealth. These 400 people are just 0.0001% of the total population, controlled the United States all households and non-profit institutions of wealth held by 3%.

　　How much money is the $ 1 billion?

　　As a foodie, I can only imagine a lot of small fish in front of me. Assumption, let alone count the money he wants to count how long? If you start now and count the money, sleepless, several $ 1 per 1 second – every 1 second, sleepless, can count to 1 million in less than two weeks, but to count to 1 billion spent more than 30 years.

　　If you want to play it cool, gangster in the film with a Briefcase stuffed with money, you need 1000 a Briefcase to finish loading, pile up the height of the hundred-meter.

　　If all the money Bill Gates into a Briefcase, Briefcase fold is about more than 7,000 meters high, 10 times higher than the world's tallest building, high enough to affect the navigation of aircraft.

　　If he gave up so much money, he will be the richest people?

　　In fact, Gates has given up a lot of his wealth, his gaiciji gold used to do charity, education, medical research and development, the fight against poverty, and so on.

　　Furthermore, he also stated that the death would later give up wealth, for charity, to help more people. Hello Kitty N4 case

　　However, Gates ' net worth did not decline, 76 billion dollars, although the Fortune 400 81 billion is expected to be less than last year, but the fact is, the more digital than in 2013 and 2012, but in the case of his charity. Gates ' net worth is still growing, and growing fast.

LG G5 also adds some new features, such as Always-On long bright mode, Bang and Olufsen audio enhancement, 4GB and USB Type-C interface.

As at present, the only manufacturer that can change the flagship models of battery, battery LG G5 concern, which uses the "Magic Slot" battery replacement has been confirmed by the supply chain manufacturers, which can also develop more features in the future. Evan Blass revealed in the interaction with the fans only 2800mAh battery capacity of the machine, below the Galaxy S7 3000mAh, and Galaxy 3600mAh S7 Edge is a big gap. Taking into account the LG G3, G4 and battery performance of the V10 is not ideal, LG G5 2800mAh battery was equipped with only some concerns, but the replaceable battery is designed to make up for this weakness.

Microsoft investment in CM and was intended to be talent rather than Android

Well-known Android Cyanogen Mod ROM team by third parties (the CM team) have been on the road to commercialization, and will conduct several rounds of financing.

Latest about the investments of hundreds of millions of dollars of financing in the surprise appearance of Microsoft's shadow. According to foreign media sources, Microsoft will pump $ 70 million to the CM team, and the investors in addition to Microsoft, as well as giants such as Amazon.

For Microsoft's investments, there have been many versions of the interpretation of many commentators believed that Microsoft intended to dig Android Android users or corner. But in my opinion, Microsoft cares are the CM team talent, network personnel, into the attack can keep back.

On the surface of it, CM is slowly going to Google, after accepting Microsoft's huge financing alternatives to replace Google services will be introduced. But in fact both CM and Microsoft having the same aspirations, that reduce Google Android user control. From this perspective, the combination of both should be lang concubine, and hit it off.

CM, care of users. One hand to control the increasingly stringent anti-Google, more and more close, their marginalization. While certainly not happy to lose existing Android users and in the area under the spell of Android roots. So even if the introduction of Microsoft's investment, and Android, and CM are not deteriorating, unless forced by Google have had to drop out, or CM up to maintain friendly relationship with Google, it is possible, after all, a win-win situation.

For Microsoft, the mentioned network talent, into the attack can keep back. On one hand, can use the CM team and technical advantages to achieve Windows 10 open source. Key depends on the determination and execution of Microsoft. Ideal results is by investing in CM team, Microsoft is expected to next built his directly in a CMROM OneDrive, Office and home applications such as Skype and services, to create a Windows-based open source systems. OtterBox iPad Mini Case

Especially Windows 10 will support Alljoyn technology (AllJoyn is Qualcomm Innovation Center launched of a mobile software open source project, is a new points on points (P2P) communications technology, support rates short-range of Terminal on terminal communications, without using intermediary server), based on this open source software framework makes developers and OEM manufacturers can through integrated wireless, and rates, and points on points connection function provides differences of of user experience.

Microsoft Windows 10 can do many things with this open source framework, and Qualcomm, the mobile phone ring bosses support, can attract a large number of software developers, after all, is the cross-platform open source technologies, and even software is also very easy to do in the future. OtterBox iPad Mini Case

But doing all this, the core is one of the most critical, needs to implement. 21st century's most expensive commodity? Talent. In my opinion, Microsoft was valued the CM team's human resources.

Today, talents, only a strong wind. Is Microsoft's determination to make the open source under Windows 10. After all, WP system from the current situation, not open source is an important factor in holding it back. Because it is not open source and third-party customization has become a joke, this is known as nothing, even if the CM does not approach.

According to recent news, CM team have recently started to recruit from the EA and Facebook executives, preparing for the upcoming c round of funding. In my opinion, better result, CM's new round of capital, if the introduction of Google and Apple, the CM and the big three all together. At that time, software and applications are likely to cross-platform through CM, if CM across three platforms, CM would then become a great company, but now it seems, which is think is beautiful, the reality may be more cruel.

To sum up, in my opinion, Microsoft just is the CM team personnel. With talent and experience, Microsoft will have more choices, so that the original is already "out" Windows phone system brings a ray of hope.

Strange blow up terminator SmartChutes UAV parachute

No more fire, drones are also more and more, but if you are a novice or veteran, drone bombing accidents are inevitable, looking for an effective way to save the drones in the bombing has become a huge issue, but today the problem is small crack by Lei feng's network.

SmartChutes is a specially designed for four-axis aircraft or drones designed automatic parachute recovery system. When you fry machine, SmartChutes can save your drones, as was an unusual landing. The project is currently being raised platform audience raised on Kickstarter.

 What is a SmartChutes?

SmartChutes is an intelligent parachute system, and was specifically for multi-rotor UAV design, this technology patent applications are called SmartShoot, which contains a gyroscope and an accelerometer, SmartChutes of flight sensors could monitor whether the drones in flight emergency, such as free fall, tumbling, and so on.

In case of emergency, SmartChutes system will automatically open the parachute of a 36-inch sizes, no pilots or operators performing any additional commands. SmartChutes systems equipped with a portable battery, even unmanned aerial vehicle has no power, can also ensure that support the whole parachute system. Alexander McQueen iPhone 5 Case

RoHS SmartChutes system?

When the battery is running out of power, some drones can be landed safely, but some fall directly out of control and quickly;

When improper operation, drones may fall;

Flight sudden strong winds, rainfall can lead to uncontrollable factors such as unmanned aerial vehicles falling;

Internal fault of the machine may cause the drone to the crash;

This is why SmartChutes why automated parachute systems, its sensors immediately detected the flight of an emergency flight and parachute in a very short time, and even after the unmanned aerial vehicle battery, SmartChutes-owned battery is sufficient to support all actions.

How does it work? 

1, open the flight sensors

Open SmartChutes flight sensors and wait for 15 seconds, let it finish initializing. At this time there is a green LED light will blink for 15 seconds, once the green light stops blinking, you can make your own UAV go fly!

2, more than 50 meters in flight

SmartChutes system monitoring to emergency in 350 milliseconds or less, and the parachute, but you must understand that the parachute opens it takes time. For this reason, if you want to open the parachute, the best flight altitude is more than 50 meters. While able to detect drone free fall and roll rotate two accidental falls.

3, can definitely protect your drones

If SmartChutes monitoring to emergency, LED lights will turn red, and to ensure the protection of your drones.

Main functions

Intelligent and automatic: SmartChutes can automatically protect your drones

Free fall protection: once you detect free fall, the parachute will automatically open

Rollover protection: once the surveillance drones rolled 90 degrees, the parachute will automatically open

Speed: faster than hand-parachute

Quickly open a parachute: monitoring emergency in 350 milliseconds and parachute

Easy to install: install the whole system is very simple, two screws fix-it

Easy to use: flight monitor opens the very simple, always ready to take off

Safety: avoid the drones because of damage caused by falling

Cell redundancy: If your unmanned aerial vehicle battery, SmartChutes battery will ensure complete

Work in any context: If you flew out of the scope of control for unmanned, SmartChutes can monitor emergency situations, and the parachute

Manual deployment: you simply tell throttle to 0, you can manually deploy the parachute. Alexander Mcqueen iPhone

All chips

SmartChutes were raised on Kickstarter, the early bird price of $ 130, shipped in October this year.

Ways to buy

Currently SmartChutes distance to raise the project's deadline in 2 days. Intends to purchase of user must after cumbersome of way to Kickstarter participation all raised, may you fear trouble, may you is small white, but now this all are will evaporated, because after small series of tireless efforts, finally and domestic well-known intelligent hardware Mall coughs network reached cooperation agreement, now Lei Feng odd cool column Xia all technology products are can a key to coughs network pre-order, again also without because abroad all raised of many limit conditions and pain lost opportunity.

Axe style motorcycle Union locomotive after 6 years of work

When it comes to American-style motorcycle, first you'll think of who? Harley-Davidson? The victory also is Indian? There is actually a very cool American-style motorcycle manufacturer: Union locomotive (Confederate Motors). Union locomotive with "pure American style designed" for the purpose, to create the ultimate motorcycle. Among them, the phantom (Wraith), fighter (Fighter) and shrews (Hellcat) three of the most popular fan favorite. hello kitty covers

Locomotives of the League focused on every detail, to the fuselage, engine, small parts, screws, all models are hand-built by technicians.  Built as each car as its slogan, "the art of rebellion (The Art Of Rebellion)" and be different. Even stars such as Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and locomotives to the Alliance to put down. Today, Lei feng's network will introduce a Union car fighter P51G2 Combat Fighter.

F51G2 is the second generation fighter Union locomotive series, its first generation P120 Fighter to debut in 2009, aerospace aluminum monocoque design of the building, with large HP V-twin engine, became the world's limited edition Street Fighter. Six years later, Union locomotive Fighter 2 stimulate the nerves of fellow fans, saved on the basis of the original concept, the second generation of F51G2 has made great changes in the configuration and functionality.

I have to say, more cool F51G2 in shape, similar to a unique futuristic sense and muscle of the axe, and full of energy. Although heavy vehicles, but now it's all lightweight material, is used in F51G2-T6 aircraft aluminum. The fuselage design, main bearings, engine, fuel tank and accelerator together, single fuselage of semi-monocoque overall weight a lot, about 500 pounds (226.7kg).

Air cooled V-twin match engine 5-speed Accelerator, F51G2 is a beast, and torque of 170 lb-ft, plus 200+ horsepower, faster travel speed should be amazing. More performance data are not yet available, I believe that this configuration should be more fierce than generation F120.

This design should be the most prominent is its rear wheels, the size almost twice times the front wheel. Seen from the side, it looked like a muscular beast, viewed from behind is a "big butt" is taken. No matter from which point of view, F51G2 are not the same visual experience for everyone.

This cool P51G2 Combat Fighter limited edition. Union company claims they will only produce 61, 31 before using the original color scheme for aviation aluminum and 30 specially created a more aggressive black plating. The fighter locomotive design so well, so price is unique. Original aluminum version sells for $ 113,900, electroplate the black version, $ 119,500.

For more cool intelligent hardware information, please pay attention to odd public number (woaiqiku), in odd public key, you can buy, and I'm not gonna tell you, register as a member of Lei feng still get super discount.
