Lim Ding Wen from Singapore is dealing with peculiar job for nine years old boy – writes software for the iPhone.

Lim, who is in fourth grade elementary school, wrote the computer program for drawing called Doodle Kids, which is only in the last two weeks downloaded from the internet 4000 times.

The program allows users Apple popular mobile drawing fingers around the screen sensitive to touch, and to delete the drawing is just shake your mobile phone.

- I wrote this program for my younger sisters who like to draw – said Lim. His sisters have five and three years.

Lim began to use the computer when he was two years ago, in the meantime has learned six languages. Currently working on a new application for iPhone which is called invader Wars.

His touch is gentle and flexible, because it has 241 sensor in the hands …

Snow-white robot can lift a man out of bed and up a conversation with him, prepare his breakfast. Those scientists in Tokyo presented Twendy One, successor robot Wendy. The latest robot has a soft hand and gentle touch and enough power to help the man stand up and sit down.

- Twendy One preparing food, but nothing was broken. His touch is gentle and flexible, and that we have achieved by placing the 241 sensors in his hands – said Sugano Shigeki, professor of mechanical engineering at the University Vaseda, who led the project.

Robot is a high bit less than 1.5 meters and weighs about 111 kilograms. It has long arms, and they have worked on him seven years. During that period they spent several million dollars.

Sugano hopes that such a robot could in the future to help disabled and immovable. Price would be around  200,000$ . But for now it even more perfect. Robot is, in fact, quickly heating and his battery lasts 15 minutes.

David Morgan, a pilot from New Zealand, successfully completed the two-hour trial flight, “Air New Zealand ‘s drive to Standard and biofuel. One engine of “Boing 747-400″ run the biofuel .

The pilot was satisfied with the way that the plane behaved driving on biofuel. Claims that did not feel the difference.

New Zealand company, whose 76 percent of the shares is a state-owned, has signed an agreement with U.S. aircraft manufacturer “Boing” and “Rols-Rojs” to work together on a project of passenger aircraft, which would be environmentally much fittest of the current model.

Oven, dig two holes on each side of the port, dip it in energy drinks, and then put the cable in the …

Owen Louis from Portsmouth concerned the amount of electricity that spends his MP3, and it full with the help of vegetables, energy drinks and cable.

Owen, a lover of music, drill two holes on each side of the port, dip it in energy drinks, and then put the cable in it.

- I watched TV and at the same time had turned on a laptop and iPod. I thought about how much electricity i spending – said the British.

A friend of his for fun experiment showed. However, the Owen it was the most interesting thing that has ever seen. He started every day charging the iPod with the help of the port, which can burn an hour.

Inventive method is completely successful and environmentally. Strikes disintegrating, a bottle can be recycled.
-Almost all the vegetables can charge the iPod, because it contains ions that react with energy drinks and so generate energy. The problem is you do not have control of how much will be charged and stink – said Phil Stabls, who teaches physics at the University “St. Vincent” in Gosport in Hampshire.

For centuries, people have used the human body, and the hand in particular, as an inspiration and blueprint for engineering innovations. But copying the human hand hasn’t been easy. Its complex muscular and skeletal structure offers a unique, tricky balance: It is dexterous, stable and precise, but also fast moving, strong and flexible. Despite the challenges, makers of robot hands have called on a host of innovations from a variety of disciplines to bring us closer to fully automated hands. Considered to be the first working robot hand, the Handyman, developed in 1960 by General Electric’s Ralph Mosher, was a two-fingered, heavily jointed claw that set up the foundation for later hands. The design looks rudimentary now, but the five-pivot segment design in each finger was innovative in its attempt to replicate the human hand’s flexible joint structure. A human hand is made up of a set of rigid links (bones and muscles) connected at joints. Each joint can have one degree of freedom (hinging or sliding) or two (rotating or cylindrical). We have four degrees of freedom in each finger, giving us enormous flexibility and the ability to make complex motions. The Handyman’s fingers had three degrees of freedom. But it was the attached mechanical forearm that provided most of the wrist action, as mechanical “tendons” pushed and pulled on the fingers.

A technician had to manipulate the hand by placing his arm inside the apparatus like a puppet. The Handyman’s capabilities were limited: It could pinch and hold, but had no sensitivity to what it was holding, limiting it to clawing indiscriminately at things. Despite almost 50 years of development, these hands are only the beginning. Like notebook computers and MP3 players before them, robot hands will get tinier and ever more complex.
