Latest software measure your pulse, detect heart abnormalities with smartphone camera


Hahaha, what more can we expect from Science? Science have given us a way to live a new kind of life isn't it?? Day by day its getting modernize with the compatibility of human brain.Now via a simple smartphone how can we predict a heart pumping rate or detect a disease....lets see here guys.

A group of researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) showed us
just how easy it is to "see" a human heartbeat in ordinary video footage.

The release from MIT on this work mentions that the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) — the moment-to-moment deviations from constancy — can be used to diagnose potential heart issues. The researchers note that the true margin of error for their methods could be a few beats per minute. While that may seem pretty good as far as getting an overall pulse rate for everyday curiosity, it could be a problem if you want to try to extract inter-beat variability. At issue is the fact that the noise that is introduced by those few questionable beats could easily swamp and confound the real HRV signal.


Now a question must be tickling your brain nerves how this software or rather i say this HRV signal gets operated? Am i right? Lets see --

We could measure each beat-to-beat delay for example, bin them up in a histogram, and report a standard deviation or RMS (Root-Mean-Square) value. Alternatively, a fancier frequency domain analysis can be done to generate a power spectrum.

While most of the finesse in these techniques is in the software, successful signal extractions of this kind are ultimately driven by the sensor hardware. If an ordinary smartphone camera can already do a decent job, we can imagine the level of detail that more dedicated remote sensors might be able gather. Finer-grained spatial detection, and thermal analysis, might reveal slight asymmetries in per fusion of the face to paint a clearer picture of vascular health.

A quick and harmless laser pulse to the skin would evaporate hundreds of unique molecules readily available to be vacuumed up and analyzed. "Taking" such readings more-or-less covertly need not always be seen as suspicious. They may come to be normal conversational facilitators that amplify the feedback we already give, consciously or not, to indicate receptiveness.

While most of these things will be of little practicality to us, to our avatar and machine creations searching to understand human emotional virtuosity, they will likely be immensely interesting.

Bye for now,

INDIA WINS THE CHAMPIONS TROPHY

                                                   

INDIA wins the ICC Champions Trophy after beating England in their home soil by 5 runs, singly for the first time since 2002 after a long wait for a decade.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni became the first captain in the planet to win the T20 WC, 50-over WC, ICC Champions Trophy, making India top the test playing nation's list with many more still to come.
                                       

England won the toss & decided to put India bat first which was a very good call for what it was a rain affected pitch difficult to bat on. INDIA lost early wickets in quick succession before Ravindra Jadeja & Virat Kohli fought back and got into a challenging score of 129 for the loss of 7 wickets.
                                             
   
Many thought it would be difficult to defend the score but the Indian bowlers proved how it's possible to defend such a low scoring total with precision and bowling accuracy.
                                     

England too, lost wickets at rapid intervals after Ravi Bopara & Eoin Morgan started giving some hopes for the English supporters not long before Ishant Sharma struck both of them in consecutive deliveries but eventually missing a hat-trick.

India finally bounced back and Ashwin and Jadeja too bowled beautifully helping India to restrict England to 124-8.The 50 over match was reduced to 20 over match due to rain and proved to be a worthy one for the spectators.
                                           

Ravindra Jadeja was declared Man of the Match as well as awarded with the ''GOLDEN BALL'' award for being the leading wicket taker in the championship followed by Shikhar Dhawan winning ''GOLDEN BAT'' award for scoring the most runs in the tournament.
                                                 

Virat Kohli danced to the famous Gangnam style and champagne was thrown onto others body.

TOP 10 GREATEST MATHEMATICIANS OF ALL TIMES

Mathematics is often called the language of the universe. Here goes the saying of probably the most genius physicist of the world.
                         

According to him,''But the creative principles resides in mathematics.In a certain sense,therefore I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality,as the ancients dreamed''.
  
Surely it's a reason to be understood.

So guys!! here are the list of those who have changed the context of the world   with their thought provoking ideas and knowledge.



10. PYTHAGORAS 

Pythagoras is considered to be one of the first mathematicians of the ancient world.He is credited to have invented the famous "PYTHAGORAS THEOREM" within trigonometry.Unlike most of the ancient theories it played a huge role in the development of geometry.Thus he could be remembered as the Father of modern mathematics.





9. ANDREW WILES

He is the last known man to live for the most well known proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.He told no any integer can satisfy the equation a^n+b^n=c^n except 2(which would make it Pythagoras Theorem).





8. SIR ISSAC NEWTON & WILHELM LEIBNIZ

The credit of the introduction of the modern infinitesimal calculus goes to both of them.Leibniz is thanked for giving the standard notation i.e.the integral notation.
But,nonetheless they both are genius to be said the least.               

7. LEONARDO PISANO BLOGROLL
   

 Known as Leonardo Fibonacci,is perhaps one of the greatest mathematicians of the middle ages.He is greatly credited for the introduction of the Arabic Number System,something he is forgotten for.It's only due to him that the Arabic maths has been developed and is considered as one of the major mathematicians of all times.

   
                                

 
6. ALAN TURING

Computer Scientist & Crypt analyst is also supposed to be a great mathematician in the 20th century.He is also regarded as one of the first true computer scientists.
Worked for The Government code and Cypher School in Britain aiding in the cracking of The German Enigma Encryptions. He also worked on computer's artificial intelligence.




5. RENE DESCARTES

This genius needs no introduction.He alongside Newton & Leibniz also worked on the fundamentals of Calculus.He also invented Cartesian geometry which is helpful in the plotting of graphs(square line grids,X-axis,Y-axis etc.).He also introduced superscripts written in algebra to express powers.So no doubt,he is one of the greatest mathematicians of all times.






4. EUCLID

Known as the Father of Geometry and his magnum opus:Elements is one of his greatest mathematical works.He is also credited for his works in number Theory.Unfortunately,very little is known about his life.There are other five works of him which has sadly been lost throughout history.                                   




3. 
G.F.BERNHARD RIEMANN

He falls in the list of prominent mathematicians in the 19th century.The list of his contribution to geometry is large,to name a few:Riemannian Geometry,Riemannian integral,Riemannian Surfaces.






2. CARL FRIEDRICH GAUSS

Needless to say he is called 'THE PRINCE OF MATHEMATICS'.He went on to prove the fundamental theorem of algebra and also introduced Gaussian gravitational constant in physics before 24.He continued it for 77 years and led to the development of many outstanding discoveries.




1. LEONHARD EULER

If Gauss is the prince,Euler is the king.He is still regarded as the greatest mathematician to have ever walked on this planet.He introduced natural logarithm base 'e'(The Euler constant),function of x written generally as f(x),Greek letter sigma for summation,
'i' indicating complex imaginary number as well as pi indicating ratio of the circle's circumference to it's
diameter.



   
So guys!!hope you all will be very excited after knowing such things about the legends of Mathematics


World's Largest Rocket will be Launched soon...

Hey Guys recently NASA is involved in a task to make the world's largest
Rocket which is of a estimated height of about 321 foot (oh My God) :o

Lets find some details of it :-

A wrench and hammer might be good for some building projects, but the nuts and bolts found in a standard garage toolbox definitely wouldn't hit the nail on the head when it comes to constructing a 321-foot,
5.5 million-pound rocket.

The Manned rocket will be set to launch when the installation of the massive tools are fitted properly. One among the tools is 170 feet tall and is designed to weld together pieces of Space Launch System (SLS). They are eyeing to a project to send Humans to Mars and an Asteroid.


6 substantial welding tool would be used to make this huge gigantic
Machine which are as follow:

1.The Circumferential Dome Weld Tool
2.The Gore Weld Tool
3.Enhanced Robotic Weld Tool
4.Vertical Weld Center
5.The Segmented Ring Tool
6.The Vertical Assembly Center (VAC),


They are all set with the building process and the designing is all done, only now testing parts are being conducted of the core stages and the avionics. The rocket will make use of other hardware from other NASA programs like the space shuttle which will be affordability benefit for NASA.

Hope you are excited by this huge step towards another level of
technological advancement and this giagantic Machine would be the
future of the world.

For now bye,

BRAZIL INTO THE SEMIS OF CONFEDERATIONS CUP


                                         


Hey guys!!! have you tuned up yourselves with the Samba style of playing football??
            
                                    Well,I hope so 

The mouthwatering clash between Brazil and Italy was worthy of it...


The Sambas took on the Azzuri's late night at 00:30 and it was a packed stadium at Salvador where this infamous clash took into happening!!


                           
                                                           

The first 100 seconds of the match was in the name of Neymarians where they  really put their shoes up for the task and started testing the legendary G.Buffon. This Brazil superstar too scored today with a brilliant free kick and also disclosing the fact why Barcelona were very eager to sign him.
                Here's the highlights of the match for you to ENJOY!!!



The match finally ended in favor of the five tome World cup champions Brazil who won the match 4-2 and finished top of the group which contained tough opponents like Italy,Mexico and the Asian giants Japan.


Now it's time to see whether the Sambas can win three in a row and make a hat trick of the Confederations Cup after 2005 and 2009.
Here's a quick highlights for those who missed the great show.





                            ####CHEERS FOR BRAZIL!!!####

Some facts you never knew about Google




Wooho!! Here we guys are back with some fun facts about the Most Popular Search Engine Giant Our Beloved GooGle.. :)

Ever wondered about the Google Doodle?? How it came up?? What might have been the mother of its invention??     
             Many of you might be knowing it but for those who are ignorant about the fact about Doodle here is something you will love to know. Google doodle was created as a "out of office" message. Once Brin and Page were to go on a vacation so the Google engineers put the below image as a message to the users that they cant fix any security issues. The first doodle was named as Burning Man.

1st Google storage consisted of LEGO

      The first ever Google storage was a matter of research at Stanford. It was made up of 40 GB storage capacity. Firstly it was a problem to accommodate the 10 4GB storing devices so this was made up of building bricks like a device called LEGO.

Goats too earn in Google

       This is one of the infamous Google's infamous April fool's day jokes. Rather this is quite true. Google rents 200 goats to make the environment around the California HQ clean. Thus it encourages a safer and cleaner environment through this practice.

Google proclaims it to be a dog company, refuses entry of Cats

      Dogs are well allowed in the campus of Google. Google fellow and senior VP operations, Urs Holzle is seen with his dog in campus and some less senior staffs are also allowed with dogs in campus. Acording to Dog policy, Google allows a dog until and unless it creates any disturbance in campus. Once a disturbance, the gates are closed for it.

Google's own Jurassic park.

The Mountain view office of Google has a gigantic skeletal structure named ''Stan" of the dino that was found nearby that area. Among the other attractive sights found in Googleplex, It is the most eye-attractive object placed by Page's company.
      Along with Stan the other eye catchers include SpaceShipOne, Android themed models, Grownup sized pit balls, colored mobiles.

      All these things might have grown a good level of interest in your mind. Many IT professionals dream of having his chair in Google. Surely why not it would be? Atleast if you can't get a seat, go for a tour there, It is no less than an amusement park for sure.
