Meta is developing a pair of smart glasses without a camera and is planning to start shipping the new model as soon as this October, according to The Information. The publication says Meta could unveil the new model dubbed Luna at its upcoming annual Connect developer conference scheduled on September 23 and 24. Luna will reportedly come in two styles, one called Clubmaster and another named Burbank. While the new model won't have a camera, it will come with six built-in microphones and speakers that point towards the user's ears, which will give users a way to talk to Meta's AI chatbot. It's still a pair of smart glasses, after all, just without the component that's making critics call Meta's current models "pervert glasses."

The LED lights reduced entanglements by 63 percent, according to a new study. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. For fishers working the inky dark night, it can be difficult to keep endangered or unwanted animals out of their nets. While lighted nets can reduce the bycatch of sharks and sea turtles, their batteries are short lived, expensive to replace, and not always easy to dispose of. The lights themselves are also heavy, can make the nets sag, and not easy for fishers to work with.

Now, gamers can get their fix without even having to leave the comfort of their bed. Dreams has unveiled The Drift – the UK's first gaming bed featuring a built-in TV, storage for consoles and LED lights. Dreams has unveiled The Drift – the UK's first gaming featuring a built-in TV, storage for console and LED lights The bed comes in three finishes – black faux leather with green or blue piping and grey fabric with black piping. At the foot of the bed is a built-in 32-inch TV with a lifting mechanism. The Drift also has storage space for games consoles, headset holders and USB ports on each side.

Event cameras are bio-inspired dynamic vision sensors that respond to changes in image intensity with a high temporal resolution, high dynamic range and low latency. These sensor characteristics are ideally suited to enable visual target tracking in concert with a broadcast visual communication channel for smart visual beacons with applications in distributed robotics. Visual beacons can be constructed by high-frequency modulation of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) such as vehicle headlights, Internet of Things (IoT) LEDs, smart building lights, etc., that are already present in many real-world scenarios. The high temporal resolution characteristic of the event cameras allows them to capture visual signals at far higher data rates compared to classical frame-based cameras. In this paper, we propose a novel smart visual beacon architecture with both LED modulation and event camera demodulation algorithms. We quantitatively evaluate the relationship between LED transmission rate, communication distance and the message transmission accuracy for the smart visual beacon communication system that we prototyped. The proposed method achieves up to 4 kbps in an indoor environment and lossless transmission over a distance of 100 meters, at a transmission rate of 500 bps, in full sunlight, demonstrating the potential of the technology in an outdoor environment.

Isn't it great to solve the Multi-Objective optimization problem of Goal Programming using "R"? If yes, then here is something which you can vouch for. In this write-up, I am going to deep dive into how can we solve the Multi-Objective Optimization Problem when we have the model already developed at hand? I will make use of the'R' language to find the optimal solutions given the developed model, its objectives, constraints, and deviational variables. I will further elaborate on the solution to make you understand every aspect of it.

Schools of fish exhibit complex, synchronized behaviors that help them find food, migrate, and evade predators. No one fish or sub-group of fish coordinates these movements, nor do fish communicate with each other about what to do next. Rather, these collective behaviors emerge from so-called implicit coordination -- individual fish making decisions based on what they see their neighbors doing. This type of decentralized, autonomous self-organization and coordination has long fascinated scientists, especially in the field of robotics. Now, a team of researchers at Harvard's Wyss Institute and John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed fish-inspired robots that can synchronize their movements like a real school of fish, without any external control.

A school of robotic fish that are able to coordinate their movements underwater - just like real fish - have been created by a team of engineers. Harvard University experts created the fish-inspired bots to work without any external control, mimicking the collective behaviours groups of fish demonstrate. Schools of fish exhibit complex, synchronised behaviours that help them find food, migrate and evade predators with no one fish coordinating the movements. The robotic fish can synchronise their movements like a real school of fish, without any external control - the first time this complex behaviour has been show in robots. The team say in future a similar swarm of robotic fish could be deployed to perform environmental monitoring and search in fragile environments like coral reefs.

Logistics needs changes, and Artificial Intelligence brings innovations to this field. There are a bunch of cool innovations like smart roads, autonomous vehicles, and so on. In this guide, we'll discuss the five most promising AI use cases in logistics. Moreover, we've listed companies that have already integrated this powerful technology and even got the revenue. Statistics are quite impressive: Artificial Intelligence integration can bring revenue from $1.3 trillion to $2 trillion per year.
