Meeting System Records Speeches~

Ever find it hard to recall who said something in a meeting? Or someone accused you of saying it but you knew that you didn't? Well not to worry! There is a new system that records each person voices plus a camera to see a particular person too!

This new record system could help you to go over what you have stated in the minutes. With the new record system, your mental recollection is all you have left to refer to.

The Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) have managed to develop a system that is intelligent enough to determine who is speaking at that moment, recording every single word while producing proceedings that visualize the entire meeting structure.

What are the few features listed?

• Camera
• Microphone that records both audio and video for analysis later, so speakers do not need to wear a microphone.
• An input device combining an 8 directional microphone array and an omni-directional camera.
• Software that localize and separate a sound source, recognize different voices and so on.
• The "MArcBrowser" to browse the multimedia proceedings.

So the next time you have an urgent meeting, use these recordings instead on relying on printed minutes that might miss a word two.

This is another one of the advance technologies in the world. Look at what are our world is made of! It is made of such incredible and advance technologies.

This is my 10th update and I hope you have enjoyed a little information about it. Click on the link below if you have any inquires or concerns about it.

Actroids!!

Have you guys ever wondered what is an actroid? Well, let me tell you what it is. Its what you have never imagined that someone so creative have designed. Something so advance in this generation. Something that attracts your eyes and make you go "Wow!"

According to wikepedia, an actroid is a humanoid robot with strong visual human-likeness developed by the University of Osaka. It was manufactured by Kokoro Company Ltd.

What are the features of this robot? It has features of a woman. A woman in reality I would say but much more beauiful and perfect. The only thing that is keeping the actroid from looking like a natural human is that it has limited actions. They only can stay at one position without moving and their hands and body gestures still consist jerky movements. I mean it can never be prefect no matter how hard human tries because robots just can't be like us. If they do, they will conquer the world!

What can the actroid do? The actroid can talk, blink, dance, move their body and hands, reply questions and many more! On youtube, there was a robot performance that include 4-5 robots dancing together. What is the best part? The best part is, the robot were all synchronized! Isn't that incredible? These days humans just have amazing ideas.

If you people have a chance, please feel free to log on to youtube and have a look at some of the examples of these actroids or robots or, go to Japan and visit places that have displays of them. You will know how incredible it is.

This is my 6th update. Hope you guys enjoy!!

Playstation Portable

In the previous decade, the Gameboy was very famous. It was something almost every kid in the United States own. The Gameboy itself has gone through its own evolution from colorless to dual screen.

However, none can deny the fact that the Playstation Portable, or PSP is something the Gameboy cannot match. In terms of graphics, sound, features, looks and almost about everything, the PSP became an icon in the world of portable entertainment.

What is so special about the PSP? For starters, it is more than just a gaming platform. Not only can you store a lot of images and videos, you can actually surf the net wherever you are. The games available for the PSP can match the quality of the Playstation 2 console. For a device that is less than two inches thick, it has an amazing battery life span.

In terms of pricing, the PSP achieved its target of becoming a device that can be bought by average people. Sony made tons of money with mass production of this cutting edge gaming device. Let's compare the PSP with its predecessor, the PS 2.

Firstly, everyone can finally enjoy the wire-free environment. You also don't need a big television to enjoy your favourite games. The PSP, as its name suggests, is known for its portability. It can be slipped into your pocket and definitely does not require any power source.

If you are into gaming, the PSP is something you need.
