Glenda Venturini

Total investments of 294 million euro in Tuscany, incoming new trains. Targets more stringent punctuality, also on investments in security lines. The spokesman of the Valdarno commuters asks a regional councilor meeting to get to know the new contract

Is there signing the new contract between the Tuscany Region and Trenitalia for the next six years on public transport in front of the iron. The agreement, formally signed on July 29, has already been in force since 1 January 2016. The enhancements, already announced several times by the regional Ceccarelli in the last months, more aspects relate to: investment, security, punctuality indexes and criminal. Also provided more regional inspectors on board, to check inefficiency.

 
 

“With this contract we have already initiated a change in the qualification of the regional rail service – said Vincenzo Ceccarelli – the ‘Iron care’ that Tuscany is pursuing will be further increased with investment in new trains and far superior to the premises technology improvements. We are talking about more than 290 million investment, 125 more than we had announced and about three times what was predicted at the beginning of the negotiations with Trenitalia. our goal is to have trains efficient, safe, timely and competitive with the private car. We chose the sustainability and i am sure that with this contract our region will make a significant step forward, reaching the highest European levels.

 
 

The contract calls investment to 294 million euro, which will be used to purchase 4 Vivalto be used on Aretina line for a total of 37 operating Vivalto compositions in Tuscany; to completion of diesel trains playground, Countryside and Siena; at Jazz more trains, with 6 other compositions for a total of 21 circulating. Also scheduled the purchase of 4 new high-capacity electric trains; this is the last committed Trenitalia concerning the new Hitachi regional trains during production.

 
 

There will also be an important intervention on the security front: the tooling ERTMS regional for all who travel the most direct. The new security objectives for the entire European network require the gradual extension of ‘equipping the network with the European system of the latest generation ERTMS (for now limited to Italy alone is the High speed), beginning with the Direttissima: for this reason it is necessary to the well equipping of the regional material.

 
 

In terms of punctuality, increase the target indices are the indices which are calculated penalties attributable to Trenitalia in the event of failure to achieve, and each line has been increased by more than a point percentage than those agreed in March, with a 95% regional objective index to 2019, compared with 94% previously established; the indices of each of the 14 lines were elevated in proportion. No line will be under 91% in 2016 and below 93% in 2019.

 
 

The spokesman of the Committee of commuters Valdarno Direttissima, Maurizio Da Re, wrote on facebook alderman Ceccarelli: “After the last match Region-commuters committees last December, with a preview on new service contract, is already scheduled another meeting in early September to learn about and discuss this new contract?  
 

Monitor physical activity and fitness trackers with smartband – The Province of Varese

Follow-up with smartband physical activity and fitness trackers

know Sport – Watches, glasses, intelligent technological cuffs rings: here are the things to know

The world of wearable devices it is evolving and expanding more and more, and has come to understand not only watches, sunglasses and smart rings, but also technological wrist bands devoted to physical activity. We speak of course of smartband, or fitness tracker.
Basically, one smartband is nothing more than a bracelet designed to monitor your daily physical activity. A kind of smart pedometer that records all your movements, and saves them and then show them on the smartphone display. There are several types of smartband, from the simplest only be able to count steps, to complex, perhaps with a display, which take into account the calories burned, the location, sleep cycles, as well as allowing you to manage your player music or other advanced options of this type.

The Fitbit

The most common among fitness tracker is the Fitbit that can continuously monitor (24h / 24h) heart rate, ensuring good detection accuracy of our statistics. All records of our workouts will be displayed on the OLED screen, plus the ability to know who is calling.

The Blaze

Then follows the Blaze model combined with the detection of heartbeats, which all the features you would expect from a precise companion for sports and also for everyday life. The Blaze also has its own HR optical sensor on the back of the device using a green LED light to “see” the veins under the skin, while the optical sensor through its algorithm determines your heart rate. The VivoActive instead the integrated GPS to track accurately running, biking, swimming and many other sports including golf with different metrics of detection.

Other

Specific to practice swimming instead the Garmin Swim, offering excellent control performance pool – number of strokes and tanks, type of swim, distance – and can go up to 50 meters deep in the water. There are even traker fitness for lazy people: The Shine, a small band with a simple and minimalist design, it can provide accurate statistics on the stages of sleep, the light on night cycles and the REM stage. The device automatically recognizes when we fall asleep, without the risk of losing valuable data during the night. The lightweight construction materials and comfortable, along with an unfussy design make it ideal to wear at night to maximize its effectiveness.
The latest innovations in the field is represented by technological bracelet fitness dedicated to lifting weights. A product made in Italy, designed by three young aerospace engineers, Ernst Vittorio Haendler, Thomas Finadri Pinzoni and Lucio, who in 2013 initiated the startup ‘Beast Technologies’ winning a challenge: start from scratch and create your fitness tracker was missing: Beast is able to detect in real-time strength, speed, power and explosiveness and to sense the state of the form and the physical. It does not calculate distance and calories, but processes the data on the force that is applied to a weight and allows you to see the progress and suggest how to improve. The Beast App, available for iOS and Android, has the main function of helping to create the optimal training conditions. The sensor takes into account both how the body reacts to certain stimuli, is the state you on that particular day. Beast was also used by the Italian national football team and is the official supplier of the Italian National Ski.

Strengthening saves redundancies. ITP Sardinia: apply it to … – Horizon School

The problem of redundancies, in the province of Cagliari, has an over ten-year history. In particular, Table C, which collects the practical laboratory of technical teachers of secondary school, pays the price of the latest reforms, the Gelmini onwards, which saw reduced, contrary to one-vaunted upgrading of the teaching laboratory, the hours laboratory lesson in the various addresses of the technical institutes, professional and even the technological high school science institutions, with the institutionalization of the same in the high schools of applied sciences.

The teachers belonging to these classes of competition, all holders of permanent contract, winners of the competition and then the role, to use an obsolete term, has gradually been decreasing their hours of lessons and so lose the ownership in the schools in which they have worked for years with dedication and commitment, forcing them to pass in limbo for years called “provincial staffing”, forcing them year after year, to make request for benefit to be assigned to a service school , and be used in materials and related, in part or totally, available to executives to cover replacements for absent colleagues.

this issue and this unease that involved in Sardinia dozens of teachers for years, it was addressed to the Office of the Regional School of Cagliari province this year, with a decree relating to mobility operations, read transfers, using unexpectedly unconventional resource: the establishment of chairs of strengthening, in contravention of the original destination for which these chairs were designed. The Decree, signed by regional school office manager for the province of Cagliari on 26 July, allowed the transfer of teaching enhancement of teachers made redundant, in an unequal manner, focusing this on some classes of competition, ignoring almost totally other. Why has become a choice so unequal, and discriminatory for some classes of competition and belonging to them teachers, than others?

The answer lies in the fact that the reasons which brought about this operation aggression towards the problem of redundancies, does not stem from the desire to put an end to this longstanding problem, but the need to operate the new entries in the role of teachers in classes of competition that were to be made redundant. Hence this unequal application of this solution, a novelty that certainly allows you to open a window to the problem of redundancies, but that has been used clumsily, generating iniquities.

But if that was the choice to resolve the issue redundancies, why in this operation were assigned also chairs of upgrading to classes of competition is not redundant in table a? Because they were made by the steps of teaching support for strengthening?

If the use of enhancement professorships may be the solution that eliminates the problem of redundancies, why not use it in a fair and rational at all the classes of competition in which this situation remains burdensome?

and finally, because this absorption policy of redundancies has not brought similar behavior by other local school boards of Sardinia, like Sassari, Nuoro and Oristano?

the practical technical teachers in Sardinia, moved by these questions, and the manifest injustice inherent in mobility operations made or not made at all by the relevant institutions, are organizing to protect their rights and those of category.

“The future of the union? If you do not protect young people is already dead “- Linkiesta.it

That Mark Bentivogli, leader of the Fim, CISL metalworkers , it was an atypical, irregular union, it was already quite clear. For the strong inclination not to get discounts in the context of one of the most self-indulgent categories of the planet. But also, and above all, to a reading of the economic and social processes often diametrically opposed to that of too many of his colleagues: to say, Bentivogli believes a fairy tale of the “acquired rights”, is in favor of meritocracy, against the citizen’s income and sees not only the risks but the many opportunities of the fourth industrial revolution, has been fighting for a true intergenerational pact in discontinuity with fake ones made to date in which young people are getting poorer and “likely to be scrapped without even being took to the streets for a trail ride. “

” We have ruined Italy? “, just released and already in its second printing, he is asked by the cover of the his latest book, published by Castelvecchi, in fact a kind of manifesto of his idea of ​​the union. A union from which you can not ignore, explains, provided they stay away from the techno-structure “lazy, bureaucratic and reactionary” that afflicts a part of it. Why is the union the only force able today to address the broad economic modernization processes that today someone calls fourth industrial revolution, someone else Industry 4.0: “In such an important moment for the union, where we talk about disintermediation and crisis, if not actual decline of representation, I think it is a useful exercise to start from people, why not, even by vulgar commonplaces. To listen to and understand the perception of our role. And if we turn on the microphone in a bar, or on the Internet, which is the bar of our times, the cliché is that “we ruined Italy.” Here, I believe that our vitality is demonstrated contradicting with facts, those clichés. Not denying them. “

And the union denies them?
Not everything. But the lazy union, bureaucratic, reactionary who are used to seeing on television, in many cases it does. And that union, in the future, you can easily do without. One can not help but, on the contrary, the great essence of trade unionism, of those noble forms of collective solidarity that are still indispensable. During the crisis, watching their backs on the workers we were just us, the only ones to prevent anger and resignation became devastating despair.

Why would they be?
Why the anger, if irrational, not those who are able to give it content and positive form, is unleashed in the worst forms, finding the road several professional riders, as the chronicle of these days, national and European, confirmation. The union, however, transforms the singular plural, gives mounting anger. To do so, however, we must not make the mistake that the best way is to go back to 800, or the seventies. They need radical choices, rifondative and regenerative. I call it the challenge of 3R to return to being a union with a strong social generativity.

Rottamatrici, some would say …
If there is someone who is likely to be scrapped prior to giving a lap are the new generations, young people. It is a paradox: is scrapping the new rather than the old. Worse: you scrapping the new measures to protect the old.

Metaphors? Think about the types of contract: more and more fragile, but only for the young.
This is nothing new: someone called flexicurity … Yes, but we saw only the flexibility, for now. And I say this as a strong supporter of active policies. I call it the theorem of Tarzan. Whose first postulate is that between the liana old and new, I leave the creeper old if at least I see the next. But I also have to say, very honestly, that part of the union, business and politics has not even raised the issue of abandoning the old liana mistakenly thinking to get so safe. On the contrary, if it is kept pretty tight and prevented others could even get close.

The Vulgate has it that the old liana is an “acquired” rights of those who came before.
i think those who only defends the rights of a few, calling them “acquired” can not do the trade unionist. If not all the rights concern, they should be called otherwise. Not only that: the majority of my members will retire with the contribution system. I can not take care of their future. Of course, I have to take care of strenuous work, tiring, who lost his job with the pay system, but as you are trying to do in the confrontation with the government, I have to take care also of the social sustainability and not just financial future pensions. We must change things so that they are in the interests of all. I believe in a responsible meritocracy, not in defense of privileges. Or we beat all the rents and corporatism and establishment associated with them or in this country a little ‘true equity will remain a mirage.

Sometimes your colleague would correct you, and speak of rights, not privileges …
The lexicon union is often absurd: if there are two redundancies and connect to the board is called “social butchery.” Speak to revise a rule in the interest of all and say you are an affront to workers’ rights. A “cathode union” has become famous for this catastrophic approach to issues that affect our future. It is not far from the approach of those who speak of “invasion” if some hundreds of immigrants landed on our shores. And is a disastrous and losing approach to the workers.

How?
I make the example of Fiat, where we are part of an accountability system against abuse of rights, for example. If 70% of workers are on sick leave, on a particular day, sooner or later you will be put in question the right of disease. If the union can not distinguish them from the rights abuses, abuses soon eat their rights. If we do not fight too smart, we know that our reticence is at the expense of hardworking and honest workers.

Here’s how the German press judges Angela Merkel on politics … – Formiche.net

->

According to surveys, 57 percent of Germans now think that the policy of ‘reception of Angela Merkel has failed: this writes the newspaper die Welt . The same newspaper, on the same page, but also praised the steadfastness shown yesterday during the press conference by Kanzlerin in Berlin. Merkel, with a short speech introducing the annual press conference with reporters in the capital, before answering the questions for an hour and a half, he repeated the sentence on 31 August of a year ago, “We can do it.”

Yesterday he reiterated the same conviction. He never said, explained to reporters, who manage the arrival of a billion plus refugees, recognition of the right of asylum, the management of return for those not eligible for them, integrate those who can stay and make it active part of the German company, it would have been an easy task. Yesterday reminded that his “We can do it” was accompanied by the next sentence: “And where we find obstacles, we must remove them quickly.” Then he referred to as the building regulations of the newly abandoned barracks and they were used to house refugees. Yesterday was referred to internal security. And the government was not with our hands these days, but it has prepared an action plan. A nine-point plan of which the Kanzlerin summed up yesterday salient ones (the details will, however, be announced later).

Too bad, writes the Süddeutsche Zeitung , you is an action plan which is discussed for some time and no big news: Merkel wants an early warning system; more personal and more high-tech tools for security organizations; a quick and efficient exchange of data between the various law enforcement agencies at the federal level but also European; Finally a faster and effective rejection of those who have obtained permission to stay in Germany.

The events of last week: the minor Afghan refugee (or Pakistani who was, you still do not know) who attacked travelers in a train; German-Iranian boy who has made the shooting in Monaco; the fugitive who assaulted with a kebab knife a woman, and finally the Syrian rejected last Sunday blew himself up in Ansbach, a Bavarian town, threw the country into a state of shock. Even the press, commentators that only slowly and cautiously began to publish articles in which you openly calls “who we got in the house?”. Most of these articles, however, is also accompanied by the repeated admonition not to see now all refugees as potential terrorists.

Henryk Broder , always sharp pen of the Welt , however, sees in this very carefully the greatest danger not only for the Germans, but for the refugees themselves. “Collateral Damage integration” is the title of a commentary published earlier this week. “Do not panic, we are told now. The chances of dying due to a car accident are much higher. ” And almost all of them are happy to be able to resume this statistic, not having to face the real crux of the matter. Only the pasionaria of the Left Sahra Wagenknecht , Broder noted, has had the courage to point the finger there where no one wants to look and say: “The events of recent days show that the reception and integration many refugees and migrants implies problems that are much more serious than those that Frau Merkel wanted us to believe last fall. ” Even the Interior of Berlin (the capital region does Senator himself and is governed by a Senate), the Christian Democrat Frank Henkel has broken through the inertia by saying: “Apparently we got home too people totally brutalized, willing to crimes barbarians that until now we had not seen. ” Broder does note, however, that neither the Interior Ministry nor Henkel Thomas de Maiziere have longer referred to the events in Cologne, Hamburg and Stuttgart’s Eve, when hundreds of women have reported sexual harassment (in some cases even violence) by refugee groups. “Apparently integration have become collateral damage.” To which, however, the multitude of politically correct does not take into account is, Broder concludes, that “to pay the price of the open borders policy will not be the Germans, but those who came from outside. Every admonition not to do tutt’erba a bundle ends have the opposite effect and the consideration that it is statistically more likely to be the victim of a terrorist alert that a car accident, only confirms the supposition that it is a danger imponderable but omnipresent. “

Critics were also several comments followed the press conference yesterday. So in the SDZ , which in recent times has almost always defended government policy, Robert Roßmann now writes: “Angela Merkel is a giant machine of emotional reduction. He hates the emotions as much as they hate the visit to the dentist or clean the toilet. And he gave evidence during the press conference. ” Too bad, because it has missed an opportunity, always in the same newspaper he commented Kurt Kister . “Merkel is the queen by nerves, rational pragmatism. (…). And ‘likely that Merkel will also define the sinking of the Titanic and the death of John Lennon ‘ an interesting challenged “. But perhaps the time has come, continues Kister, to use a more affordable people’s language. Merkel already but should be capable of a more emotional rhetoric, just that it is not. If it were it would not be presented at the press conference, he rather did what he does brilliantly from time to time the nation Cicero, that the head of state Joachim Gauck : he then gave a speech to nation able to touch the hearts and sharpen the intellect. “Because it is true that the nation is not divided, as they pretend those of the extreme right or left. But are obvious fear, doubts, helplessness and anger. It would be good that Merkel would address precisely these issues. “

The Frankfurter Allgemeine , the newspaper of Frankfurt that has long no longer guarantees the absolute support of the past, He speaks of “limits of Kanzlerin”. The comment on the FAZ is assigned to Jasper von Altembockum , who writes: “And so finally, has said the phrase that many people expected much earlier. That phrase that you think you have already said several times, but if it was, he must have slipped in almost sneaked speeches: ‘A year like 2015 never happen again’. Merkel was referring to illegal entries. And considering the short distance that seems to divide migration and terrorism, this statement is an outlet of revolt consciousness no longer on the front line against smugglers, but the increasingly disoriented population. ” Altenbrock also incorporates the phrase that Merkel had said late last summer: “And if we find obstacles, these must be removed.” Among the obstacles that now might be removed, as Merkel yesterday did not wish to enter into the merits, it is to be able to use (as in France and Belgium for example) in Germany more easily army, instead, as required by constitution, only in the event of natural disasters or had endangered the very existence of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Merkel knows that the wind is turning. A reporter yesterday asked when will deliver the place to finally give way to a new political course. She did not respond.

rapid processes? No thanks. The alfaniani stoppano notifications on … – The Daily

Judges and lawyers engaged in studying how to reduce biblical times of the processes agreed in calling for the introduction of the via certified mail notifications to the defendants and suspects defenders instead of physically mobilize for every action the bailiffs. An amendment that after years of insistence on introducing this new technology has arrived in Judiciary Committee in the Senate , where we discuss the reform of criminal law, famous for also contain thorny knots of prescription and interceptions . The centrist Popular Area – read the alfaniani – they stopped they got the reference to a future delegation to the government. With the support of Forza Italy and the final endorsement of the Pd .

“The amendment proposed to move from a medieval system notifications to a system of modern times, of course maintaining the guarantees, “he told ilfattoquotidiano.it Senator Pd Felice Casson , Vice-Chairman of commission. And, as rapporteur along with party colleague Cucca Giuseppe , a signatory of the proposed amendment. “The novelty could enter directly in the bill under discussion, but the Ap block advised us to withdraw the amendment and postpone the matter to the classroom.”

The centrist celebrated the victory: “Popular Area welcomes the withdrawal by the speakers of the amendment relating to notifications of judicial documents included in the reform of the criminal, “he has said the senator process Bruno Mancuso . “We had strongly advocated the dropping because if this proposal emendativa had taken the course would determine issues regarding the ability to know of the charges, with a clear compression of the accused’s rights .

the amendment 16.0.1000 by Casson and Cucca was going to change, among others Rules 148 and 156 of the criminal code that procdura precisely regulate notifications of judicial documents. The combined effect provided that only the first act of an investigation was notified “by delivery of a copy to the person”. For all subsequent would be enough to “certified mail”, the address indicated by the defender. A few lines that would allow to overcome a system that stretches the length of proceedings and costs a lot to the taxpayer. But PA has seen us a “compression of the rights of accused” and if they have not done anything. And so the great little notifications revolution ends hostage centrists, like the prescription, that “it will be difficult to reform this majority,” prophesies Casson. The simple solution to stop time after a specified act, for example, the conviction at first instance, will never pass the wall alfaniano, while it is the rule “is in Anglo-Saxon countries and in France and Germany”, said the former judge. “Those abnormal is us.”

Yet the suggestion to abandon the Middle Ages to land in our time has come long ago just from a government-appointed commission (vintage Letta) to which he belonged among others the ‘ current prosecutor of Catanzaro Nicola Gratteri , a former minister in pectore the Renzi government and big supporter of notifications via pec as medicine to streamline processes and save public money. “First”, he said in the report of the Committee signed by President Roberto Garofoli , “is considered necessary the use of IT tools, especially making the email mandatory certification for all lawyers registered to relevant register and providing that the acts are carried out notifications through this tool. ” Date: January 2014. The modern era can wait.

ROME. also Facebook betting on augmented reality, which together with the virtual one is one of the technological trends of the moment. The confirmation came from Mark Zuckerberg at the conference with investors to the company’s quarterly data has admitted to have fun with the Pokemon Go app and claimed that augmented reality will become a mass technology thanks to smartphones.

Commenting on the data from the social network records – such as the 1.7 billion people who Zuck reminded to be equal to the entire global population of a century ago – the number one Facebook has also taken the opportunity to reiterate interest in augmented reality, exploited by their popular game of Pokemon that consists nell’acchiappare virtual monsters moving on roads and royal parks.

in Zuckerberg’s vision will be the phone, as reported by the Quartz website, “platform for mass consumption ‘of this technology. instead not “devices to be worn on the face as the glasses” (such as the Microsoft HoloLens). It then cites the app MSQRD, recently purchased, “which is already a fun way to ‘boost’” reality.

The videos, he pointed out, will be the focus of the future strategy.

the opposite of virtual reality is already well covered by Facebook with Oculus, specialized company which bought in 2014 for about $ 2 billion.

Clothes that are tents for refugees and other technological innovations 4 – Bergamo Post

The technological research offers every week new inventions that can make our lives easier, including engineers who work for large companies and young people looking for funding on crowdfunding platforms. Here is the news announced in recent days.

1) The pillow that helps you sleep

The quality of our nighttime sleep affects the rest of the day and we know how difficult it is to face the work and commitments after a sleepless night or at least uneasy. To the aid of those who are struggling to get to sleep and rest in a satisfactory manner comes Zeeq, a smart product cushion REM-Fit, which helps you get to sleep, stay asleep and wake up at the right time.

By tracking the states of sleep and showing all the information recorded on the relevant app, you will have all the sufficient information to ensure eight hours of sleep a day. It is also able to detect whether a Russian individual with the integrated microphone and vibrates slightly when the subject becomes too noisy, to protect their own welfare and that of their partner. These small vibrations are used to encourage people to change position in an attempt to decrease the possibility of snoring or breathing too loudly. Zeeq sends the same vibrations to help wake up, at least partially, just before the programmed alarm sound, so as to make less traumatic awakening. You can buy one for $ 99 and the first deliveries will arrive by the end of 2016.

2) The material that is self-fix

The animated film Big Hero 6 was broadcast in movie theaters around the world about two years ago and chronicles the exploits of a young genius of robotics, able to create a robot formed by many small independent fragments able to reconnect in case of damage or accident. The same idea was applied by an international team of researchers in South Korea, which have created a material that is self assembles on command by creating various forms. The research was recently published online on Nature Materials , a monthly that deals specifically with the materials science and engineering.

The team that collaborates with Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology was inspired by the behavior of swarms of bees and tried to replicate it in the lab, starting from computer modeling and designing of the spheres can auto connect when traversed by an electric field. The researchers conducted laboratory simulations using the particular spheres, created by Dr. Steve Granick IBS Center for Soft Matter and Living all’UNIST School of Natural Science. These particles have two sides, one with positive and one negative. When exposed to an electric field, the charges of the particles are modified and changes their electrostatic interaction. The result is that some particles are strongly attracted to each other and others remain neutral, creating an imbalance that makes possible the construction of pre-defined shapes such as chains or balls.

3) The smart rope sold on ‘ Apple Store

the technology is now part of all major sports, both at professional level and at amateur level, where fans not put off by the prices not too tempting just to stay at up with the times. The latest buzz that wants to revolutionize a historical tool called Smart Fitness Rope and a jump rope with smart functions, it will even be sold on the Apple Store. It has LED lights that create a display while in mid-air jump, showing how many hops we performed, keeping track of usage time, calories burned, and even creating a ranking system that puts competing their results with those of its friends.

This is not a revolutionary gadget, so that in many wondered what you are really helpful to have a rope that counts in our place, bearing in mind that price is not at all appetizing. If a classic rope can cost you at a sports store between 10 and 20 Euros, the price to win Tangram Smart Rope is an impressive $ 90, a figure that could only convince the fanatics of the industry.

4) the seagull-drone that cares for bathers skin

Until a few years ago, the protection of the skin during the summer season was the highest for the youngest children, more sensitive and therefore more exposed to potential sun damage. Today also because of the increase in harmful rays we are more aware of the usefulness of a good sunscreen, not only to prevent sunburn, but above all to protect the skin from nasty diseases. Children, however, are still very reticent to use sunscreens and is primarily for them that Nivea has launched a campaign based on a technology that wants to protect children from the sun and of course sell more sunscreen.

It is a drone able to detect the level of UV rays and that based on the results decides whether to release during its flight of sunscreen to protect children who are in the beach below him. It is equipped with a special camera that detects the kids who do not have the sunscreen, darker shown on its display, and can thus choose which release the protective cream. The form of gull it can blend in the maritime landscape, but it is not yet clear whether it mainly be a publicity stunt or if the drone will really put on the market. Meanwhile, someone has already unbalanced in judgment, calling it the stupidest commercials ever.

5) The clothes that become tends to help refugees

innovations are not always dictated by the search for profit at any cost, but often the most ingenious inventions come from the personal need or a desire to help others with all possible means. Angela Moon, a student at Parsons School of Design, in discussions on the topic of migrants began to think of a concrete way to help them, creating something useful for them. The result was a line of clothing designed especially for those who flee from wars and often does not have a place to sleep and must make do in makeshift places, without actually find a true sanctuary. The collection consists of a series of complete clothes that are able if necessary to be re-assembled and form a real field tent, providing at any time a shelter for sleeping. The hope is that the inventor that this set of clothes collect the funds necessary for mass production and are donated to many charities in recent years in particular, work with the Syrian refugees.

Clothes that are tents for refugees and other technological innovations 4 – Bergamo Post

The technological research offers every week new inventions that can make our lives easier, including engineers who work for large companies and young people looking for funding on crowdfunding platforms. Here is the news announced in recent days.

1) The pillow that helps you sleep

The quality of our nighttime sleep affects the rest of the day and we know how difficult it is to face the work and commitments after a sleepless night or at least uneasy. To the aid of those who are struggling to get to sleep and rest in a satisfactory manner comes Zeeq, a smart product cushion REM-Fit, which helps you get to sleep, stay asleep and wake up at the right time.

By tracking the states of sleep and showing all the information recorded on the relevant app, you will have all the sufficient information to ensure eight hours of sleep a day. It is also able to detect whether a Russian individual with the integrated microphone and vibrates slightly when the subject becomes too noisy, to protect their own welfare and that of their partner. These small vibrations are used to encourage people to change position in an attempt to decrease the possibility of snoring or breathing too loudly. Zeeq sends the same vibrations to help wake up, at least partially, just before the programmed alarm sound, so as to make less traumatic awakening. You can buy one for $ 99 and the first deliveries will arrive by the end of 2016.

2) The material that is self-fix

The animated film Big Hero 6 was broadcast in movie theaters around the world about two years ago and chronicles the exploits of a young genius of robotics, able to create a robot formed by many small independent fragments able to reconnect in case of damage or accident. The same idea was applied by an international team of researchers in South Korea, which have created a material that is self assembles on command by creating various forms. The research was recently published online on Nature Materials , a monthly that deals specifically with the materials science and engineering.

The team that collaborates with Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology was inspired by the behavior of swarms of bees and tried to replicate it in the lab, starting from computer modeling and designing of the spheres can auto connect when traversed by an electric field. The researchers conducted laboratory simulations using the particular spheres, created by Dr. Steve Granick IBS Center for Soft Matter and Living all’UNIST School of Natural Science. These particles have two sides, one with positive and one negative. When exposed to an electric field, the charges of the particles are modified and changes their electrostatic interaction. The result is that some particles are strongly attracted to each other and others remain neutral, creating an imbalance that makes possible the construction of pre-defined shapes such as chains or balls.

3) The smart rope sold on ‘ Apple Store

the technology is now part of all major sports, both at professional level and at amateur level, where fans not put off by the prices not too tempting just to stay at up with the times. The latest buzz that wants to revolutionize a historical tool called Smart Fitness Rope and a jump rope with smart functions, it will even be sold on the Apple Store. It has LED lights that create a display while in mid-air jump, showing how many hops we performed, keeping track of usage time, calories burned, and even creating a ranking system that puts competing their results with those of its friends.

This is not a revolutionary gadget, so that in many wondered what you are really helpful to have a rope that counts in our place, bearing in mind that price is not at all appetizing. If a classic rope can cost you at a sports store between 10 and 20 Euros, the price to win Tangram Smart Rope is an impressive $ 90, a figure that could only convince the fanatics of the industry.

Internet Festival, a time travel – The Nation

Pisa, July 29, 2016 – As we were (without internet), as we are (with the network) and how we will (in the future) is the time travel that will hold together the edition 2016 Internet Festival 6 to 9 October at Pisa .

the new edition of the festival is dedicated to the theme “digital Materials”, the virtual world metaphor and the rules surrounding it, to an issue that has chosen to explore the forms of the future by following the threads of a digital fabric increasingly pervasive, but every day more real support of an information-based ecosystem. Objects that become nodes, signals that turn into bonds and that redefine the economy, technology, the arts, media, education, even personal identity: they will be the common thread # IF2016 .

“the Network as a frame – the organizers explain – that weaves and connects data, concepts and relationships is the key element of the new edition of the Internet Festival.” The 2016 edition will be a kind of “back to the future” where the 80 will be the bridge to the future, 2048, through today where the “network” is more and more “stuff” in everyday life.

Four days of debates, meetings, workshops and laboratories, which open their own with an event that features the timeline “base 16″ from the 80s, topical and near future. A “how we were” to describe the political, social, economic and technological environment that allowed the take off – in the 80s – the digital revolution as we know it today, complete with background music and ad hoc television. A journey that turns the clock back in time, to land in the present and project them then in 2048, exactly between thirty-two, in a future to draw from today.

More and more the rich four days of the program, designed as a web of wires that define a diverse and dynamic scenario: from focus on the issue of cybersecurity and the wide analysis of the relationship between war and migrants, a topic which will be dedicated to meetings and insights, stories , innovation, hospitality, music and online contest “the satire sails” under the supervision of Mats; very timely session that analyzes the changes in the labor world in the light of the progress of robotics and new ethical demands; then constant attention to the world economy and the ecosystem of startups, the star once again networking events, the .itCup Registry .it CNR and Bootstrap event, curated by Startupitalia and it Registry.

They return then the appointments of the Gaming , the latest advances in the field of town and the focus on innovation in the food sector mobility. For the culture area, the spotlight on the world of museums and digital publishing, struggling with major challenges of renewal. Do not miss the appointment with the world of sports – which will be dedicated a session titled “When the going gets tough …” – starring: sports, companies that produce wearable or related technology the date of the science sector, academics and journalists. central theme: the advent of innovative products in sports especially in cycling, volleyball, tennis and football.

A lot of news in the space T-Tour , entirely dedicated to educational and informative activities on digital culture. also focus on the Digital Agenda, a real “state of the art” with national institutional players.

The music of Jacob Collier , very young, but already established, multi-instrumentalist, protégé of Quincy Jones, will feature on Saturday evening with soul and jazz. Besides Star Trek, movies, web series, tastings, installations, home automation, the hackathon, exhibitions drawing the largest the world of innovation in the small space of the city of Pisa. Internet Festival is the most important national event on the Web and innovation. A unique opportunity to experience connections and trace routes able to draw new geographies and outline increasingly complex spaces to govern. A trip from Pisa continues to explore the world of the most innovative technologies, new forms of communication, digitization and its effects in various fields (from food to music, from culture to international conflicts, from marketing to businesses, from big given to public administration, from theater to sport), not forgetting the social issue of innovation, the younger generations and the ecosystem of startups.

Krafwerk 3-D – Amadeus online

Gianmarco Caselli

Robots, projections 3D, minimal electronic music, obsessive rhythms and atmospheres that project in the future: this is Krafwerk 3-D , the concert was staged last July 25 at ‘ Arena Verona (only Italian date of 2016), and where, to music performance of the German band, have joined three-dimensional projections that have literally invested the audience for over two hours. A concert that leaves no doubt about the fact that Kraftwerk, founded in 1970, still represent one of the key pillars of electronic music , perhaps even the point of reference along with Stockhausen. Theirs is definitely not a closed story despite the fact that, after the departure of one of the group’s founders, Florian Schneider, the original line is left alone Ralf Hütter.

With this concert the novelty is not only represented by three-dimensional projections, but also the actualization of the songs in a purely Kraftwerk style with references to anything else but to themselves; a performance that does not look to the past and even at present but the future music. The band in fact it is not limited to resubmit the songs in more or less known versions, but gave them new life making them contemporary and engaging even further for the new generations.

 We can only bow before such a show that does not point to the spectacular self-centered individual artists but still puts the center of electronic music and its performative forms.

 Who attended this event will find outdated and surpassed every other type of electronic experimentation because Kraftwerk, which have been able to cancel and overcome the distinction between popular music and classical music , still know how to see and do in the future music 40 years after their genesis.

the show starts with Numbers and the public, equipped with goggles (which surely will become the object of worship and collectors) to view 3D projections , is immediately flooded with a myriad of green numbers on a black background, codes at the base of electronic music, while the four musicians remain throughout the duration of the evening almost motionless behind their locations. As a start like that is much impact, the delirium of technological music and projections have soared with The man machine with geometric shapes in 3D that seem to hover over the heads of the spectators and then continue with an incredible version of space Lab during the execution of which the Kraftwerk and the public navigate inside of a spaceship flying in space with a fascinating visual effect and were close to the land, in particular Italy, and just happens to head Verona where it lands right in front of the Arena with a vintage ’20s sci-fi. But the irony of videos like this and positivity that emerges from songs like Tour de France – in a memorable performance – give way to other more disturbing as that of Trans Europe Express in which a reality of black background is cut from bright white bands that outline the train itself. And the projections continue to invest the audience, when, with geometric figures, when with lines when with overwhelming architectural structures that seem drawn from electronic circuits, when optical style with figures of three dimensions, at one with the music of songs like Planet of visions , Radioactivity, Electric Cafe and the robots – the latter with the musicians, men-machine, replaced by robots – to find a kind of summa with the mantra that closes the concert: Music non stop . And the hope is just that Kraftwerk and their music does not stop.
