Still using AR to scratch the wizard? Try Islander's AR Grave App! Uber loses at least 1.27 billion U.S. dollars in the first half |

Are you still using AR to capture the elves? Try Islander's AR Graveyard App!

According to the Japan Times, this is a company from Katori, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, emulating the mobile game Pokemon Go and using AR and GPS satellite positioning technology to launch AR applications. Through the Spot message, users can hear the deceased's last words and even “see” him when he visits the burial grounds of the deceased relatives and friends, the Skull Pagoda, and the memorable sights during his lifetime. The effect of "The dead have gone, the voice is still here" is felt.

In order to be able to fulfill this desire, this requires the user to record a deceased person's video before the deceased, and set some specific locations. Later, when the user visits these places where the deceased had visited before, he can see the scene and what happened through the Spot message App.

It is understood that any user can download Spot message, but free users can only save 10 videos, and if the user is registered as an ordinary member, you only need to pay 500 yen (about 33 yuan) can store up to 30 videos .

China's first Mars car form exposure, what's your name?

Recently, the “Global Call for China Mars Exploration Project Name and Graphic Marking Activity” was formally launched in Beijing. At the event, the appearance of the first Mars rover and rover in China was also made public for the first time.

As shown in the figure, the most prominent feature of China's Mars is its possession of four "big wings" - solar panels. According to Sun Zezhou, the chief designer of the Mars exploration system for the first Mars exploration project in China, this is due to the fact that Mars is relatively far from the sun and the Martian atmosphere reduces sunlight. Therefore, the illuminance of sunlight on Mars is relatively small, in order to guarantee a rover. The energy supply, solar panels therefore occupy a larger area.

The world's first fully self-propelled robot, replacing "electrical" with "pneumatic"

For a long time, the robotics community has been hoping to create robots made of soft materials, but the development of flexible energy supply and control elements has always been difficult. Recently, researchers at Harvard University have taken a different approach and created the world's first fully-soft and self-driven robot.

From the dynamic diagram, this “small octopus” doesn’t seem to be very sensitive. The slow change of legs makes it look “stupid,” but its truly landmark feature is: in the absence of batteries and circuit boards. Next, self-driven. Specifically, it is not traditional "electrical" but "pneumatic."

Google Promotions Project Fi: Free Wi-Fi for All Nexus Devices

Lei Feng network (search "Lei Feng network" public concern) was informed that Google recently announced that its virtual operator services Project Fi will be free to open deployment in the United States more than 1 million WiFi hotspots, but only for all Nexus device users.

Explosion Proof Transmitter Turbine Flowmeter

Turbine Flowmeter with explosion proof transmitter means that a Turbine flowmeter matches an explosion proof transmitter and, at the same time, the turbine flowmeter adopts some explosion proof measurement when in the production process, and meanhwhile the transmitter and electrical interface are also stainless steel and can withstand certain explosion impacts.

A turbine flowmeter with an explosion proof transmitter is usually used in those sites where the measured air other gas contains some exposure hazard gas element. Adopt a turbine flowmeter with explosion proof transmitter can prevent the hazard level on one side, and in the other hand, once the explosion occurs, a turbine flowmeter with explosion proof transmitter can reduce the explosion hazard result.
