| Science/Technology › 10 Amazing Facts About The Human Body You Don't Know by moneya(op): 7:13pm On May 03, 2015 |
People will often say they know something “like the back of their hand” to indicate that they’re familiar with it top to bottom. But how much do you actually know about your own body? We’ve got 10 tidbits that may surprise you. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/sleep.jpg 1.) You’ll be about 1cm shorter when you go to bed at night compared to when you wake up in the morning. Your cartilage in your spine slowly compresses throughout the day. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Magnascan_-_boiling_water1-300x180.jpg 2.) In just 30 minutes, your body can produce enough heat to boil half a gallon of water. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/tougue.jpg 3.) Don’t stick out your tongue if you want to hide your identity. Similar to fingerprints, everyone also has a unique tongue print! https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/body-info-23-300x192.jpg 4.) There are more than 300,000,000 capillaries in your lungs and if they were stretched out tip to tip they would reach approximately the distance between Atlanta and LA. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/brain.jpg 5.) Your brain uses about 20% of your oxygen and caloric intake. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/kidneys-3-d-printing-300x189.jpg 6.) In each kidney, there are 1 million filters that clean around 1.3 liters of blood every minute and push out close to 1.5 liters of urine every day. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/perfume.jpg 7.) Everyone has a completely unique smell (except for twins). https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/bones.jpg 8.) An adult has fewer bones than a baby. We start off life with 350 bones, but because bones fuse together during growth, we end up with only 206 as adults. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/skeleton.jpg 9.) Your bones, pound for pound, are 4x stronger than concrete. https://blog.zafr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/sneeze.jpg 10.) The air from a human sneeze can travel at speeds of 100 miles per hour or more — another good reason to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze — or duck when you hear one coming your way.

| Science/Technology › Dubai To Debut Robot Police In 2017 by moneya(op): 8:33pm On May 02, 2015 |
https://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/353/3/d/police_robot_detail_by_angelitoon-d6yi2oj.jpg Dubai latest idea seems to be taking technology a step closer to science fiction. The Dubai police force are looking at introducing robots to shopping malls and other public areas in just two years time. https://www.lolwot.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/robot-police-to-debut-in-dubai-in-2017-1024x550.jpg While they won’t be up to the movie robocop character standards right away, the police will hope to improve them quickly as they carry out more research. Speaking at a security conference in Dubai to press, Colonel Khalid Nasser Alrazooq spoke about what the robots will be capable of – “The robots will interact directly with people and tourists. They will include an interactive screen and microphone connected to the Dubai Police call centers. People will be able to ask questions and make complaints, but they will also have fun interacting with the robots.” “These will be fully intelligent robots that can interact with people, with no human intervention at all. This is still under research and development, but we are planning on it.” The move might raise concerns amongst those worried that artificial intelligence could eventually go on to become a major threat to humanity in the future. source: http://blog.zafr.org.uk/dubai-to-debut-robot-police-in-2017/ i think this is the beginning of world policing by robots  |
