Balto Matic foam extinguishers the times when rooms were automatically flooded with water in case of fire are gone now there are systems that extinguish the flames with the help of a special phone they are especially useful in modern facilities with an increased fire hazard the video shows the testing of a modified fire extinguishing system it's installed in the aircraft hangar of the NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center the system uses high expansion foam thanks to this feature the amounts of water and chemicals in the composition is reduced the foam is more environmentally friendly than standard products the difference between this innovative foam and conventional foam is substantial the damage caused to the premises and to the aircraft is significantly reduced it covers 90% of the room in only 60 seconds after that the expansion of the foam takes four minutes the height of the resulting layer reaches 90 centimeters jet suit if you've always dreamed of having a costume like the one Ironman has take a look at the screen in July 2018 the British company gravity industries began selling these flying suits you can buy it right now if you want and if you have four hundred and forty-seven thousand dollars to spare the suit is 3d printed five engines lift the user into the air it's noteworthy that they can run on jet fuel as well as diesel the rated maximum speed is 90 kilometers per hour however so far the top speed reached by the jet suit is 51 kilometers per hour the manufacturer recommends it as the safest speed the maximum height that you can reach wearing this suit is three thousand six hundred and fifty seven meters however don't start planning a long and exciting trip with your jet suit the fuel tank capacity is only 15 laterz this amount is enough for about five minutes of flight in cold weather ten minutes the suit weighs 27 kilograms I three older people are often sedentary and don't go far from home not because they don't want to but because moving too much causes them discomfort and even pain American company unliving offers a solution to this problem here is the portable electric scooter I three it was specifically designed to meet the needs of the elderly when folded the scooter is compact enough to fit in the trunk of a car therefore it will be easy to store at home too despite its fairly low weight only 24 kilograms its maximum payload is 136 kilograms the user travels in a comfortable sitting position there's no need to pedal or push other advantages include mobility and easy handling the scooter rides softly and is stable even when driving on an uneven surface the maximum speed is six and a half kilometers per hour while the minimum is three kilometers per hour one battery charge lasts for up to twenty two and a half kilometers of travel you can buy the i3 for twenty eight hundred and fifty dollars dactyl the video you see on the screen now was shared last july by open AI a non-profit research company from san francisco researchers studying and developing the capabilities of artificial intelligence have developed a robotic arm amazingly it's able to manipulate objects as easily as humans do we're used to seeing demonstrations of what robotic body parts and all sorts of exoskeletons can do the problem is that they all lack fine motor skills but the dactyl project does not have this disadvantage experts were able to create a dexterous hand which will be the envy of any modern robot such sensational abilities were achieved thanks to a self-learning algorithm the engineers made the hand practice in a simulated environment for several days the computer model of the mechanized fingers move the cube to solve the object reorientation task in this way scientists were able to significantly speed up the learning process simultaneously several hands were practicing in a simulated environment each time a new task was set before the robotic hand changing the initial parameters such as size weights material and smoothness of the cube surface as soon as the robot fulfilled a task it received a new one after a while the hands were transferred from the simulated environment to a real one it turned out that the knowledge acquired by the artificial intelligence was enough to do what you see on the screen in order for the hand to learn it was equipped with three cameras and sensors that read the movements of the human fingers the algorithm processes the data received from the cameras and then gives the robotic hand the orders to complete the task electric car mover this device will be useful for people who work in car workshops because electric car mover allows one person to transport even the largest vehicles at first sight the device looks like a standard manual forklift used in warehouses however the device is designed specifically for transporting cars it works quietly moving smoothly too so that the operator doesn't accidentally damage the car the device lifts the vehicle from the front and the maximum lifting weight is 3400 kilograms gift-wrap three thousands super every year hundreds if not thousands of people face a very specific holiday problem they have to wrap their Christmas presents carefully and beautifully but they simply can't here's a device which won't completely solve the problem but at least it will help some people the gift wrap 3000 super as a machine to automatically wrap boxes and wrapping paper it is bulky and expensive so you shouldn't bias if you wants it put it in the back yard or garage however it does wrap gifts that can be bought in a shop and look very neat each wrapped gift looks just like the other there like twin brothers amazingly the gift wrap 3000 super is able to pack 50 boxes per minute it's produced by the British company CPAC Limited Brij health fire blanket when a car is on fire you only have a few seconds to do something because a burning vehicle threatens the safety of any people or objects in the vicinity that's why it's so important to develop systems to eliminate the fire as soon as possible that's why the Norwegian company Bridge Hill AS created the fire blanket you see on the screen the use of this innovative tool allows you to completely extinguish the fire in just 20 seconds not only does it stop the fire from spreading but it also stops the emission of smoke and toxic substances two people will be able to deal with the fire by just unfolding the blanket it is stored in a compact roll then grab the handles and cover the car on both sides after that you can safely pull the blanket down to the ground the fire is immediately extinguished since there is no more access to oxygen it is recommended to leave the car like this for 20 minutes using the bridge he'll fire extinguishing system you can also prevent open flames from spreading the surface absorbs up to 90% of the heat so you can safely walk behind it
