Li-Fi to replace Wi-Fi in China

Li-Fi to replace Wi-Fi in China

Chinese scientists have successfully developed a new cheaper way of getting connected to internet by using signals sent through light bulbs instead of radio frequencies as in 'Wi-Fi', a move expected to radically change process of online connectivity.

Four computers can be connected to internet through one- watt LED bulb using light as a carrier instead of traditional radio frequencies, as in Wi-Fi.

Under the new discovery dubbed as 'Li-Fi', a light bulb with embedded microchips can produce data rates as fast as 150 megabits per second, which is 20 times faster than the average broadband connection in China.

New LMS – Learn Dash at StudyChamps

New LMS – Learn Dash at StudyChamps

We at StudyChamps were looking for the right platform to expand our educational website and take it to the next level. I must mention that it was really a very time consuming and difficult task to evaluate various LMS platforms available until we came across LearnDash. I was pleasantly surprised to see that it covers most facilities we were looking for, and we started our journey towards embracing the new platform. Even before we purchased LearnDash, it was very evident that the team was very willing to support and prompt in resolving queries. We are now working on the LearnDash platform backstage now.

StudyChamps is an educational portal which provides free Math, English and Science resources for kids for more than 2 years now. With the increasing popularity and requests for specific content, facility to track progress of kids etc. made it imperative to upgrade the platform to a learning management system. We are quite excited with LearnDash and very soon we will roll out the subject courses for kids specific needs based on LearnDash. We thank all our followers, kids, their parents and teachers for their continued support. We also thank LearnDash team for the support and helping us with the right suggestions and guidance.

Plants Are Good At Math

Plants are good at math

According to scientific research plants do complex arithmetic calculations to make sure they have enough food to get them through the night.

According to scientists at Britain's John Innes Centre plants adjust their rate of starch consumption to prevent starvation during the night when they are unable to feed themselves with energy from the sun. They can even compensate for an unexpected early night.

During the night, mechanisms inside the leaf measure the size of the starch store and estimate the length of time until dawn. Information about time comes from an internal clock, similar to the human body clock. The capacity to perform arithmetic calculation is vital for plant growth and productivity.

Bring Future To You

Bring Future To You

Want to bring the future to yourself? See what’s going to happen in your life in next eight years with a time machine. Yes, a time machine that will not take you into the future, it will bring the future to you.

An Iranian scientist, Ali Razeghi claims to have invented a ‘time machine’. The machine can predict up to eight years in the future with 98 per cent accuracy.

The machine, dubbed ‘The Aryayek Time Traveling Machine’ supposedly works by using a complex set of algorithms which he says took him ten years to develop.

The device easily fits into the size of a personal computer case and can predict details of the next five to eight years of the life of its users. A government can see five years into the future and would be able to prepare itself for challenges.

The scientist is expecting to market this invention among states as well as individuals once they reach a mass production stage.
