EDITORIALCLICK PUBLICATIONS Willson H & Claudio D.<br />

We are seeing that technology is<br />

increasingly present in our daily<br />

lives. new research, smart<br />

computers, smart phones,<br />

connected television are some<br />

of the things that are invading us<br />

at a speed that is often difficult<br />

to follow.<br />

EDITORIAL<br />

Precisely for this reason we add<br />

in <strong>unreal</strong> the technology<br />

specials, which in a non-periodic<br />

way and from the hand of<br />

experts will propose various<br />

topics of interest.<br />

What better than two<br />

extraordinary academics to<br />

release this first special that<br />

talks about the HIGH AREAS of<br />

technology. CLAUDIO DIAZ<br />

Unreal tells us about the new<br />

trends in technology today.<br />

The articles are really very<br />

interesting, I recommend<br />

them.<br />

I hope that the special numbers<br />

that we will insert are of interest<br />

to you!<br />

RoboFly, the first wireless robotic<br />

flying insect<br />

We probably remember RoboBee, the<br />

insect robot. Now, his successor -<br />

improved-, RoboFly, is presented as a<br />

miniature robot that can fly thanks to<br />

the laser. It does not need batteries or<br />

cables like its predecessor. This<br />

wireless minidron with the shape and<br />

size of a bee, extracts its energy from<br />

the light impulses of a laser.<br />

Flying robots the size of an insect,<br />

such as RoboFly, could help with tasks<br />

such as inspecting the growth of crops<br />

on farms or detecting gas leaks. These<br />

robots fly with tiny wings because they<br />

are too small to use propellers (like the<br />

ones we see in their cousins the larger<br />

drones). Of course, this small size is<br />

quite an advantage: these robots are<br />

cheap to manufacture and can easily<br />

slip into narrow places that are<br />

inaccessible to larger drones.<br />

The interesting thing about<br />

RoboFly is also that you do not<br />

need cables, but a small AI that<br />

tells the wings when they should<br />

move. Although it seems a trifle it<br />

is a giant leap for robots. The<br />

robotic insect uses a small circuit<br />

on board that converts the energy<br />

of the laser into enough electricity<br />

to make its wings work.<br />

This will be the microrobots with<br />

artificial intelligence that will save the<br />

oceans<br />

In the field of AI, IBM says there will be<br />

robot microscopes with artificial<br />

intelligencethat can save the oceans from<br />

pollution.Heexplains that in five years these<br />

smallautonomous microscopes with AI will<br />

beconnected to the cloud and deployed<br />

around the world, and will be responsible<br />

for monitoring the water situation<br />

continuously and in real time.<br />

Thus, IBM scientists are working on a<br />

system that uses plankton, since it is a<br />

natural biological sensor of aquaculture<br />

health. IBM IA microscopes can be housed<br />

in water bodies to analyze the movement of<br />

3D plankton in their natural habitat, and use<br />

this information to predict the status and<br />

behavior of the waters. This could help in<br />

cases of oil spills or leaks from other<br />

sources of pollution, as well as predict<br />

threats such as "red tides".<br />

IBM also tells how in the next five<br />

years the biases of artificial<br />

intelligence will increase, but at the<br />

same time new solutions will appear<br />

to counteract the algorithms that are<br />

created with some kind of racial,<br />

gender or ideological prejudice. In<br />

this field, the researchers of the<br />

American firm have developed a<br />

methodology so that no AI algorithm<br />

perpetuates an inequity when<br />

learning later from the data. IBM<br />

scientists have also developed a<br />

technique to examine artificial<br />

intelligence systems, even when the<br />

data that has been used for their<br />

training is not available.<br />

In addition to the Chinese<br />

government, several<br />

provinces and cities in the<br />

country, says the<br />

consultancy PwC, offer<br />

preferential policies and<br />

generous financial<br />

incentives for emerging<br />

companies in artificial<br />

intelligence (AI). For<br />

example, the city of<br />

Shenyang has established<br />

an investment fund of<br />

20,000 million yuan, 23,400<br />

million Hong Kong dollars,<br />

focused on the<br />

development of robotics.<br />

N E I L A R M S T R O N G<br />

These favorable policies<br />

are what have inspired<br />

innovations of companies<br />

in China in the field of AI.<br />

Already consolidated<br />

multinationals such as<br />

Baidu, Alibaba, Huawei,<br />

ZTE and Tencent, have<br />

joined emerging companies<br />

such as Megvii, iCarbonX,<br />

Mobvoi and SenseTime,<br />

and unicorns, startups with<br />

valuations of more than<br />

one billion dollars, such as<br />

Didi, Chuxing and Xiaomi,<br />

who recently landed in<br />

Spain to sell their cheap<br />

smartphone, among other<br />

Game Boy: yesterday and today<br />

The screen was small, the graphics were limited to<br />

gray shades on a dull green background, but the<br />

Nintendo Game Boy was a revolution when it was<br />

launched in Japan three decades ago. The original<br />

version may seem desperately thick now, but at that<br />

time it was unimaginably svelte, a suitable console to<br />

play anywhere.<br />

What made this console so popular and sold so<br />

many units?<br />

The funny thing is that the Game Boy was not really<br />

the first portable gaming machine with<br />

interchangeable cartridges: that was the Microvision,<br />

launched in 1979 and described as a "programmable<br />

electronic game system" by its manufacturer, the toy<br />

giant Milton Bradley. Interestingly, the console itself<br />

was just a container with a small screen, each game<br />

had its own central processor and a memory chip.<br />

When it landed in Japan on April 21, 1989,<br />

at a price of 12,500 yen, it immediately<br />

sold its initial print run of 300,000 units (it<br />

did not arrive in the United Kingdom until<br />

September 1990). Literally swept. At that<br />

time, the essential game was Super Mario<br />

Land, a typical and nice platform game<br />

that reproduced many features of the<br />

classic Super Mario Bros. series. It would<br />

continue to sell more than 18 million<br />

copies.<br />

With the passage of time, the Nintendo<br />

3DS became the fabulous successor of<br />

the Game Boy also reaping many<br />

successes.<br />

Being a portable machine, practically a pocket<br />

console, was his great success. The console was<br />

designed by Nintendo's Research and Development<br />

team, led by the legendary engineer Gunpei Yokoi,<br />

the genius behind the company's Game & Watch<br />

series of portable LCD games. Impose portability on<br />

performance. So, while rival handheld consoles such<br />

as Atari Lynx and Sega Game Gear boasted<br />

expensive hardware and color screens that erased<br />

the battery, Game Boy was comparatively cheap<br />

thanks to its antiquated Z80-based CPU. And<br />

although the 2.5-inch screen could barely display<br />

four different gray tones,<br />

5 benefits of dropping the<br />

mobile<br />

It makes you more sociable<br />

In 2015, Kate Unsworth, founder and CEO<br />

of Vinaya, a London company that creates<br />

wearables, led a curious experiment. It took<br />

35 executives to the Moroccan desert,<br />

where they spent four days without<br />

touching a mobile, and five neuroscientists<br />

who observed their behavior. It was found<br />

that, on the third day, they walked more<br />

erect, established more visual contacts and<br />

remembered more details of their<br />

interlocutors than before that abstinence.<br />

But perhaps such a deployment is not<br />

necessary: 82% of Americans believe that<br />

using cell phones during social gatherings is<br />

detrimental to conversations.<br />

Improve your quality of life<br />

The University of Maryland (USA)<br />

conducted an investigation with a group of<br />

students who agreed to disconnect their<br />

phones. They fired up the time they spent<br />

with their friends and families, they<br />

exercised more and even cooked and ate<br />

healthier dishes.<br />

Increase your productivity<br />

Numerous studies have found that it is enough to<br />

have the mobile phone at hand to diminish our<br />

attention and give less. Although do not distract us<br />

with notifications. In addition, being always<br />

connected ends up damaging the employee's<br />

capacity, which burns. France has regulated the right<br />

of workers not to use digital work tools outside office<br />

hours.<br />

Help your rest<br />

It has been proven that the blue light of the screens<br />

reduces the production of melatonin, a hormone that<br />

helps us fall asleep. Before going to bed you should<br />

avoid playing video games or reading unpleasant or<br />

controversial news on your mobile. Increase your<br />

adrenaline levels, a hormone that puts your body on<br />

alert and can lead to insomnia.<br />

Increase your ability to concentrate<br />

According to a study done in Canada by Microsoft,<br />

the average time of attention of Internet users has<br />

gone from twelve seconds on average in the year<br />

2000 to only eight seconds nowadays. The specialists<br />

argue that the massive use of technology and the<br />

need to do several tasks at the same time have made<br />

us pay that cognitive price.<br />
