Russia and Europe team up for joint missions to Mars

ESA team builds self-piloting rover in six months, tests it in Chilean desert

Fast payday loans For Every One

We’re not sure how George Smiley would feel at the news, but we’re certainly pleased to see that Europe and Russia are teaming up to revive the moribund ExoMars missions. The ESA has signed a deal with Roscosmos, its Soviet counterpart, that’ll see the pair launch an orbiter to the Red Planet in 2016, followed by a rover mission two years later. Unsurprisingly, Russia will be chipping in the rockets, leaving Europe with the job of building the hardware that’ll go on it. Now all the pair need to do is argue about how best to usurp Curiosity as the mayor of the Gale Crater.

United States and Russia establish joint action plan to combat piracy

united states usa america flags waving stock 1024

The United States and Russia have established an agreement to work together to fight intellectual property violations. As specified in the Intellectual Rights Protection Action Plan, Russia has agreed to shut down infringing websites, and pump more money into law enforcement, including physical raids to destroy infringing pirated content — methods of enforcement that are already present in the United States. The agreement also states that Russia will establish a law that will determine ISP liability in cases involving infringement (though it’s not clear what kind of “safe harbor” provisions, if any, will be given to Russia’s ISPs).

The US hails the agreement, as it should — it focuses on actions Russia can take to extend US…

AOC Aire iPlay desktop LCD docks iPhones and iPods, rocks the joint (modesttly)

AOC Aire iPlay desktop LCD docks iPhones and iPods, rocks the joint quietly

AOC has a bit of a lasting memory issue: it declares the Aire iPlay E2343Fi is the very first computer monitor to have a built-in iPhone and iPod docking station. Nope. However don’t let that discourage you from looking at the new 23-inch LCD, whose cradle in the base will definitely both keep your Apple gear topped up along with play films and new music through the display. The 10-watt speakers will not precisely provide the home down, though they will let you take the headphones off. As an actual home computer display, it’s a common TN-based panel with a 1080p resolution, a quick 2ms pixel response time and a boldly claimed 50,000,000:1 dynamic comparison ratio. Those who find a different dock or (gasp) wires too a lot can formally spend $ 280 for an Aire iPlay of their own today; Amazon and other stores have actually already knocked the cost down to a more palpable $ 230.

In terms of robotics what is the difference between joint motion and Cartesian motion?

Question by : In terms of robotics what is the difference between joint motion and Cartesian motion?

Best answer:

Answer by Starrysky
Joint motion is measured on a polar grid (circular, with center at the joint) that shows angle and radius.
Cartesian motion is measured on a rectangular grid, with X and Y axes that cross anywhere the user wants. Sometimes the zero center is at the target, sometimes it is at the beginning of the motion.

Corning and Samsung ink new joint venture, plot Lotus Glass future for OLED devices

Anyone keeping a close eye on the mobile market knows that Samsung and Super AMOLED, much like peanut butter and jelly, are inextricable bosom buddies. So, this recent tech marriage between the Korean electronics giant and Corning (of Gorilla Glass fame) shouldn’t come as much surprise for fans of super saturated screens. Under terms of the agreement, both parties will jointly manufacture Lotus Glass for use in smartphones falling under the Galaxy umbrella, as well as Super OLED TVs. The substrate, heralded for its ability to withstand “higher processing temperatures” without compromising structural stability, will help create a range of less power consumptive, high-resolution devices. Unexciting? Sure, but you didn’t think those 720p displays were going to make themselves, now did you? Official PR after the break.

Sony Exits LCD Joint Venture With Samsung

6_sony_logo_w

S-LCD Co., the joint venture for making LCDs for TVs between Sony and Samsung, will soon be history. The Japanese company today announced it will exit the 50-50 venture by selling its share to the Korean rival for US$ 940 million, after seven years of collaboration.

After inking a final agreement, Samsung is ready to absorb the South Korea-based joint venture into its existing LCD business and turn it into a 100% subsidiary. Samsung’s LCD business will then be the second-largest in the world by revenue, trailing only LG Display.

Sony, which has been reporting losses for its TV unit for years, said that parting ways with Samsung will result in savings of about US$ 640 million every year. Last month, Sony issued a financial report forecasting a US$ 1.15 billion loss for this fiscal (for the company as a whole), but it didn’t say if the forecast will be revised.

To some extent, Sony and Samsung are continuing to collaborate in the display area. The Japanese company, which will keep on producing TVs, says it “entered into a new strategic agreement for the supply and purchase of LCD panels with a goal of enhancing the competitiveness of both companies”.

Samsung, NTT DoCoMo to develop smartphone chips in proposed joint venture

Qualcomm may be facing some new competition in the mobile chip space, now that NTT DoCoMo and three other Japanese firms are looking to join forces with Samsung. According to Japan’s Nikkei business daily, the quartet of firms (which includes Fujitsu, NEC and Panasonic’s mobile unit) is currently finalizing negotiations with Samsung over a proposed joint venture that would design, develop and market smartphone chips. The partners are reportedly planning to incorporate the new chips into their own devices, while selling them to other handset manufacturers, as well. DoCoMo would hold a majority stake in the ¥30 billion (about $ 390 million) partnership, which could help lower procurement costs, while reducing the partners’ dependency upon industry-leading Qualcomm. A DoCoMo spokesman acknowledged that the provider is exploring a variety of collaborations, but was quick to point out that nothing’s been finalized. Samsung and Fujitsu, meanwhile, have yet to comment.

Sony, Toshiba and Hitachi confirm plans for government-backed LCD joint venture

We had a pretty clear indication that some official word was coming soon, and Sony, Toshiba and Hitachi have now confirmed that they intend to pool their LCD manufacturing efforts and form a new joint venture (expected to be completed by the spring of 2012). That effort is getting a $ 2.6 billion shot in the arm courtesy of a Japanese government-backed investment fund, which itself will own 70 percent of the new company — to be dubbed Japan Display — while Sony, Toshiba and Hitachi will each get a 10 percent share.
