Handy ultrasound machine

ultrasound which is also commonly known as a Sonogram. The definition of ultrasound is energy that is generated by sound waves of 20,000 or greater vibrations per second. Ultrasound is used in many different arrays. It is most often used in the medical field. Ultrasound uses sound waves that are too high to be heard by the human ear. A part of the ultrasound machine called the transducer is placed on the body part and sound waves are emitted from the transducer and reflected back from organs and tissues. When the wave is sent back to the transducer it puts it into the computer which then measures the length of time it took for the wave to leave and come back and this is what makes up the pictures.
Features of the Pocket divice
The quick look that may strengthen your clinical confidence, aids in speedy diagnosis, and deepens the patient connection.Enhance the physical exam by looking inside patients non-invasively with ease.
Inspect organ function and make diagnoses quickly and confidently. Connect more deeply with patients for quality care.Time savings and clinical accuracy of a new miniature ultrasound device was investigated utilizing comparison with conventional high-end ultrasound instruments. The main diagnostic strengths of the portable device were in the detection of ascites (sensitivity 80%), diagnosis of fatty liver, and identification of severe parenchymal liver damage. Mean time for overall examination per patient with the portable ultrasound device was shorter (25.0 ± 4.5 min) than with the high-end machine (29.4 ± 4.4 min; p < 0.001). When measuring the size of liver, spleen, and kidneys, the values obtained differed significantly between portable device and the high-end instrument.
Instant insight
Ultrasound system wherever needed for instant insight at the emergency bedside. This pocket-sized ultrasound device offers immediate access to imaging for timely, more informed decision making at the point of care. Designed with the FAST (Focused Abdominal Sonography for Trauma) exam in mind, the ACUSON P10 system features ED specific presets, instant power-up, and a simple, intuitive PDA-style interface. An SD Memory Card and USB port make storing and outputting images or clips easy and fast.This ultra-portable ultrasound system complements our initial diagnostic assessment by helping to verify clinical suspicions, decreasing the time from triage to treatment.

The LUNA RING

Architectural/engineering firm Shimizu has proposed a Moon-based solar power plant to solve our energy and climate crisis here on Earth. And also Japan, which was hurt by the devastating Fukushima meltdown in 2011, is actively seeking out alternative power resources to wean itself off nuclear energy. So, Shimizu wants to build a giant strip of solar panels 248 miles wide all the way around the Moon’s equator. Then, they’d send the energy back to Earth in the form of microwaves, which we’d convert into carbon-free energy at stations on the ground. Proposed for operation as early as 2035. Since, the moon has no atmosphere; the cells would be continuously harnessing solar power. Shimizu have also proposed pyramid cities and a space hotel, so the Luna Ring might not be the wildest thing in their minds. Given that California has already signed a contract to buy electricity from Solaren’s Earth-orbiting power plant, a Moon unit can’t be that far behind.
Green energy
The Shimizu Corporation, Japan what it is planning to build a solar power plant on the moon, Called the LUNA RING, the project will harness sun's power and beam it to the earth.The firm planning this incredible feat, plans to place solar cells near the moon's equator. The belt of cells will be about 400 kilometers (248 miles) and will soak-up the sun's energy and direct it to earth in the form of microwaves and lasers."Virtually inexhaustible, nonpolluting solar energy is the ultimate source of green energy that brings prosperity to nature as well as our lives," the company said.
Constructing a Solar Power Grid on Moon
The firm wants to employ an army of robots to help build the solar grid. Shimizu will use lunar resources to construct the Solar Belt, which will stretch to about 11,000km in length (6835 miles). Machines and equipment will be manufactured on earth and sent to moon for installation. A team of astronauts will manage robotic surface operations. "Water can be produced by reducing lunar soil with hydrogen that is imported from the Earth. Cementing material can also be extracted from lunar resources. These materials will be mixed with lunar soil and gravel to make concrete. Bricks, glass fibers and other structural materials can also be produced by solar-heat treatments," the company also said. As our atmosphere is virtually transparent to microwaves and lasers, Shimizu envisages solar energy being fed through microwave/laser transmitters located around the Earth-facing side of the moon. As the moon orbits the Earth and the Earth rotates, international receiving stations will feed electricity grids with plentiful lunar solar power as the moon rises to when it sets.

colors are three

Originally there are only three colors in the world. The basic colors of red, green, and blue are used to create the secondary colors. Tertiary colors are created by mixing primary and secondary colors together.For human applications, three primary colors are usually used, since human color vision is trichromatic.For additive combination of colors, as in overlapping projected lights or in CRT displays, the primary colors normally used are red, green, and blue. For a subtractive combination of colors.Primary colors are not a fundamental property of light but are related to the physiological response of the eye to light. Fundamentally, light is a continuous spectrum of the wavelengths that can be detected by the human eye, an infinite-dimensional stimulus space.Humans and other species with three such types of color receptors are known as trichromats. scientists such as Thomas Young, James Clerk Maxwell, and Hermann von Helmholtz expressed various opinions about what should be the three primary colors to describe the three primary color sensations of the eye. Additive mixing of red and green light produces shades of yellow, orange, or brown. Mixing green and blue produces shades of cyan, and mixing red and blue produces shades of purple, including magenta. Mixing nominally equal proportions of the additive primaries results in shades of grey or white. * There are warm colors and cool colors. Warm colors tend to be orange, red, yellow, etc. and cool colors are greens, blues, and purples. * White, black, and grey are neutral colors.* When a color is tinted that means that it's getting lighter (has white added to it) and when it is a shade it is getting darker (has black added to it).
