FFZero1

                                           The FFZero1

The FFZero1 is a high performance concept car that can reach
200+ mph. It is a fully electric car that goes 0-60 in less than three
seconds.
                                                   
 The goal was to build a car with a sixth sense for its driver's intentions and needs.Built with adaptive personalization, seamless transfer of custom vehicle configurations,
access to live images, and real time data visualization.
         
Sculpted by aerodynamics for driving performance and efficiency, the smooth, flowing surfaces of the FFZERO1 Concept morph from one unique element to another, creating volumes that tightly embrace the driver—ultimately forming an ideal environment for high performance operation.

Specifications

• 4 Quad Core Motors with over 1,000 horsepower
• 0-60 in less than 3 seconds
• top speed 200+mph

         

Search and Rescue Drones

Scientists Training Search And Rescue Drones To Help Lost Hikers Get Home

A team of researchers led by Prof. Davide Scaramuzza have developed a way to train drones to follow forest trails in order to assist search and rescue missions for lost hikers. According to the research, Prof. Scaramuzza's team figured out a method of machine learning through Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) which enables an unsupervised drone to determine the direction of a path using an on-board camera.

The system was created by first setting up a hiker with three cameras that cover about 180 degrees of visual information: one positioned straight ahead, one placed 30 degrees to the left and the other 30 degrees to the right so that there is a slight overlap in the captured video.

The raw data used was eight hours' worth of footage of approximately 7 kilometers of hiking trail between an altitude of 300 and 1,200 meters. The footages were taken at different times of the day and under different weather conditions.

Oculus Rift

                                   The Future of Gaming

                                                     The Oculus Rift

Rift’s advanced display technology combined with its precise, low-latency constellation tracking system enables the sensation of presence, 
the feeling as though you’re actually there.
The magic of presence changes everything.
You’ve never experienced immersion like this.

From the moment you pick up Rift, you’ll feel and see the attention to detail
that went into its design and construction.
Customization, comfortable, adaptable, and beautiful,
Rift is technology and design as remarkable as the experiences it enables.

Tracked controllers bring your hands into VR and take your
experience to another level.
