“Inequality” is the reason for the CBF does not use the technology … – Globo.com

The additional bottom line referee did not see the ball kicked by Lefty against the goal keeper Vladimir crossed the goal line, in the defeat of Goiás 2-0 for Santos, over the weekend. But technology allowed by FIFA in Brazil after the World Cup could easily validate the player’s goal emerald.

With equipment installed only in 12 that Arenas were utlizadas during World, CBF chose not to use the technological system during the dispute of the Brazilian Championship. To be no inequality, the second vice president of the Arbitration Commission, Nilson de Souza Monsoon

-. This is an administrative issue. We have 12 arenas with cameras, this legacy by FIFA. Only in Sao Paulo have four stages, but only one has this system, the Corinthians Arena (…) may be used if it is determined by the command of the CBF, for now we only have the legacy left by Fifa. The thought of the Committee on Arbitration does have to have an equality is not just a stadium have this equipment and other non -. Highlighted Monsoon, “Writing SporTV”

According to story of “Folha de S. Paulo”, CBF would desembolçar £ 638,000 to install equipment in other stadiums that are used in Serie A – about 30 Furthermore, there is an expense of $ 10 000 per game , but FIFA had promised that would bear this cost for a period of one year after the World Cup – which was not necessary

-.’s use of technology is very welcome, by the arbitrators and the Commission. But in our campeonatot had 250 matches in Serie A and in fact only one ball that came or not. This happened only once – downplayed Monsoon

4G Technology: Claro, TIM and Vivo arrematam first three batches – Jornal do Brazil

The first of the six lots telephony fourth generation (4G) in the range of 700 megahertz (MHz) was sold by the operator Claro, with a proposed £ 1 947 billion. The amount reported by the company represents a premium of almost 1% compared to R $ 1.927 billion minimum price defined as the grant for each of the three national batches. The second batch was with Tim for almost the same value of course. The third lot was bought by Vivo, the minimum price of the grant.

Of the six lots, three have national coverage. The fourth batch covers the entire national territory, unless the areas allocated to plots 5 (87 municipalities of Goiás, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul and São Paulo) and 6 (and Tamarana municipalities of Londrina, Paraná).

TIM, Claro, Telefonica (Vivo) and Algar Telecom delivered proposals to compete in four national batches of 10 MHz each and two regional. However, Algar Telecom was not involved in the dispute of these first three lots for not having bid security.

The 700 MHz band will complement the 2.5 giga-hertz (GHz), auctioned in June 2012, also for 4G technology. While the frequency of 2.5 GHz has more capacity and smaller radius of coverage, 700 MHz has greater scope and requires fewer antennas, and is used by several countries, like the United States and Argentina.

According to Anatel, using the 700 MHz band, you can take the fourth generation mobile telephony and Internet broadband high capacity to rural areas, at a lower operating cost, since this range is ideal to cover large distances.

The ‘revolution’ starts with the Clippers technology – More Football

In August this year, Steve Ballmer closed the purchase of the LA Clippers for two billion dollars. The story of the best national basketball championship of the world crossed in a special way with the realm of computer science. The NBA team now held by a former director of Microsoft. The Revolution the Clippers are in motion. And it will start with the technology side.

The new life that which is seen as the second team in Los Angeles became inevitable from the final expulsion of Donald Sterling following comments considered racist. In achieving this expulsion, the former owner of the Clippers was forced to sell the team. It was in April this year.

appeared interested in purchasing. Steve Ballmer was one. Sterling still resisted the obligation to sell determined by the NBA, but a court of the United States turned out to confirm the decision taken by the owners of the other teams. Thirty-four years after working at Microsoft since its founding, Ballmer moved to the world of sport.

O former executive director of 58 years has not completely shut the computer giant. To begin, Ballmer is the single largest shareholder of Microsoft (including greater than Bill Gates) holding 3.99 percent stake – worth an estimated 15.7 billion (over € 12 billion) value. The output of the executive board was ready, but the businessman had anticipated move to the board of the company. The business of sports led him to change direction; even without leaving the Microsoft way back.

Ballmer entered at the Staples Center showing signs of its sports policy is based on continuity. The new boss of the Clippers renewed for five years with coach Doc Rivers and institutional role-players Chris Paul and Blake Griffin remain as the stars of an admittedly strong team. Sporting goals will undergo overcome the Lakers rivals, but do not stop there. “They’ll have the best experience and the best will not be only in Los Angeles,” he said in an interview with Reuters fans of Clippers as recipients.

The same crowd at the same time are also consumers. And that can be adept not only in the pavilion, but through all the technological supports that allow the games below. Before giving the opponent the Lakers and the other 28 NBA teams, Ballmer was an adversary to Apple’s iPad or Samsung Galaxy. And his loyalty to Microsoft was such that the former CEO (according to the news agency) forbade family members own use an iPhone.

A exit from Microsoft was not then a goodbye ; was a let us see out there , starting with now . “The majority of the club uses Windows [Microsoft] [operating system],” but “some of the players and coaches do not.” Ballmer said the coach himself realized that things, the technological point of view, would change the Clippers: “The Doc is aware that the project is this. Was one of the first things he said to me: probably let us get rid of these iPad is not And I said Yes, we’ll probably . But I promise that we would do in the off-season. “

The Clippers enter action in late October. But the first clash of this technology push fan Microsoft will sponsor logo with the NBA itself. Tablets and TVs to be used by players, coaches and referees during games are Samsung’s sponsorship of a $ 100 million (€ 78.8 million) over three years – which obviously implies the use by the South Korean technology NBA brand.

is the brand wars so common in North American sports. As also, for example, in the main championship football. Here, the domain is in the field of old company Ballmer. The sponsorship from Microsoft to equip the NFL with its tablet Surface Pro 3 is worth 400 million dollars (about 315 million). And it has a new advertising development.

Robot finds lost objects with radio frequency technology – Globo.com

Researchers have created a robot that can find objects lost at home. He works from a radio frequency system. It’s very simple: just that the objects are tagged to issue signals to communicate with the smart machine. The technology is a solution for those who consider themselves “forgotten” and promises to give a break to the defendant as “Longinus” are.

Japanese Company announces robot that can avoid car accidents

Each object must receive a “tag” with your signature on radio frequency, which must be unique. With a search algorithm, it is able to understand user requests and then look for objects around the house.

The robot through antennas on the sides, can receive these signals and find them. As he approaches an object receives a stronger signal and can move in your direction. In tests, he was very efficient, finding drugs, remote control, cell phone, etc.

Drone in Brazil, is it true? Check in the forum TechTudo.

“With a little modification in some of the objects in your home, a robot could quickly have an inventory of your assets and navigate to an object of your choice. If you are looking for something, this robot will show you where it is, “explains co-author, Travis Deyle.

Despite already being evolved enough, the project is still at the beginning and the tests are being made by the developers themselves. There is no prediction about its release to the general public for now. See a video of the robot below:

Technology is what most would advance to arbitration, says poll … – Globo.com

“Arena SporTV” Friday was attended by Sergio Correa da Silva, president of the National Arbitration Committee, and discussed the level of arbitration Brazilian. In poll, netizens voted the “use of technology” as the main feature to look for advances in this aspect. The option had almost 46.6% of the vote. The other alternatives were “professional class”, which had 43% of the vote, and the “exchange with Europe”, which accounted for 10.4% of the preference.

commentator arbitrage SporTV Leonardo Gaciba said the issue of the use of images in football still needs a lot of discussion

– have to be discussed much more than it is. It is very simple to say that will save the arbitration. But how will it be done? You must have a monstrous investment. How will it be done? The viewer can be watching five minutes of game that is not worth. Has a penalty for challenging a coach, the ball goes back into play, another contact in the area, another challenge for the other coach. How will this be? -. Questioned

To the commenter Wagner Vilaron , the necessity of the use of technology in football to improve the quality of refereeing is evident The great challenge is to find the best way to use it

-. Discussion must exist. No one disputes the need to put this, it is necessary at this time. We have to discuss how -. Said

There is a Portuguese technology to move society – Observer

Carminho, voice of fado, has teamed up with the National Association to Combat Poverty (ANCAP) and auctioned the gold album “Fado” in the fair trade eSolidar platform. The September 20, a British citizen paid 350 euros to stay with the reward of Portuguese artist. Fan of the singer or the cause? It is not known, but the charitable organization thanked the donation.

The ANCAP supports about 80 families a month with a basket of food, distributes clothes, shoes and other articles of consumption and is one of 50 associations that is entered in launched by Marco Barbosa, Rui Ramos and Miguel Vieira in May 2014 platform.

A month before the auction Carminho another, the platinum Tony Carreira . And the donation was nearly ten times more generous. With the award of the bid, the ANCAP received three thousand euros in donations . There are no certainties, but the information presented in the profile of the bidding, it seems that the CD flew a Portuguese emigrant in France.

For Angola, flew football with the Sport Lisboa e Benfica played against Olhanense in the final game of last season, in which he devoted national champion. The bidding adept earned 2,800 euros The World of the NGO Carolina, which supports children with chronic illness or who are disadvantaged socioeconomic status. In 129 days of activity, eSolidar had raised close to 8,300 euros for 31 organizations.

The eSolidar is the project of social entrepreneurship that opened the first day of Citizenship 2.0 event and what is done with DNA technology and Portuguese. Promoters are new to the concept and the e-commerce platform is not the product debut, but with this tool you want to create technological solutions to social impact.

“ We want to be a Swiss army knife for nongovernmental organizations [NGOs], “explains Rui Ramos, 31, responsible for the finance department to the Observer. In eSolidar, any citizen can contribute to direct donations to the causes you believe in, participate in auctions for NGOs registered with celebrities promote the platforms and use the platform for buying and selling second-hand products, choosing a percentage that accrues to one cause.

“If we promote sustainability, we must also be sustainable,” said Rui Ramos, during the presentation of the project. And explained how:. Whenever an institution sells an object, the eSolidar charges a fee of 2.5% of the purchase and sale of second-hand products and receive 5% other 5% of the auctions also revert to the platform

The goal of the founders, who joined Filipa Barros, also is to create a supportive ecosystem and disseminate the tool outside of Portugal. By the end of the year, plan to double the number of institutions included in the platform.

Rui Ramos, Marco Barbosa and Miguel Vieira met in the incubator startups Minho Minho Enterprise Institute (IEMinho). It was there that integrated the design of electronic commerce Bewarket, which later gave rise to eSolidar, and Filipa Ramos explained Rui Barros, 30, the Observer. After advancing to the first idea, realized that there was a gap in the fair trade market and decided to redirect the project. The focus is now exclusively on NGOs.

and Filipa Ramos Rui Barros are responsible for two of the four eSolidar.

also “got sick”

Share experiences. The project Vilaça Rita, 25, presented the first day of Citizenship 2.0 aims to unite people who suffer from the same pathology. Rare diseases, chronic, degenerative or mental:.’s Room to talk about everything on the platform that the Master in Bioinformatics and Medical Informatics almost master, launched in February 2014, I was sick to

The idea emerged during the master who took the University of Minho and where he met José Fernandes, the BloomIdea, a consulting firm that helps businesses launch Online . It was in that conversation that sensed there was no platform in Portugal that allows patients to share experiences with certain pathology, therapeutic and confidences. Why not create it

José Fernandes has allocated three company employees to the project: a computer, an designer and a manager, who contributed hours of work for the realization of got sick . Seven months later, more than a thousand people are enrolled in the digital community to talk about the pathologies of suffering. Those that have had the largest membership are Fibromyalgia, Depression and Anxiety disorders. Why? Perhaps because they are more “misunderstood” and “less visible” explains Rita Vilaça.

The platform, which works almost like a social network, allows patients to create a profile with medical and therapeutic records, establish moods, create a network of friends, send private messages and talk in groups. And is not exclusive to patients. Friends and family who feel the need to have support and share the experience they are living can also register.

The aim is that promoters of these data c ontribuam later for scientific research of some pathologies. For now, the team is still optimizing the platform and plans are to develop a version for mobile or app .

Politics is on Twitter

Public Opinion and Sentiment Tracking, Analysis, and Research , ie, POPSTAR. The project belongs to Pedro Magalhaes, 44, researcher at the Institute of Social Sciences (ICS), University of Lisbon, develops methods of collection, measurement and aggregation of political and economic opinions conveyed on Twitter, the blogosphere and the news, with funding Foundation for Science and Technology.

“collect the buzz , the frequency with which one speaks of leaders and political parties on Twitter and try to measure the feeling [of people to the leaders], “explains Pedro Magalhães the Observer.

In addition to collecting and analyzing the semantically tweets , the POPSTAR also intends to compare the data collected with other indicators of public opinion, such as opinion polls. The first prototype of the project, the team of researchers from ICS, Institute of Systems and Computer Engineering – Research and Development at the University of Lisbon (INESC-ID), Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP) and the Center for Economic Policy Research at the University of Minho, analyzed the sentiment of the citizens to the political leaders through tweets , but the goal is to broaden the spectrum of activity.

“Let’s try to develop technologies that can measure the contribution of specific texts, such as news, and understand how the information is linked by the media and Twitter relates. Who influences whom? “Said the investigator.

The target of the analysis will expand, but the theme also. Next step: the economy. With the technology developed at FEUP and INESC-ID, the researchers will try to measure, through tweets Portuguese who feel the economic crisis, unemployment and firms. And for the future, the investigator gets one more chance “would also like to know if there are differences in the way the media cover politics and party leaders” account.

In the POPSTAR page there is daily updated information about the sentiment of the Portuguese (based on tweets ) against the political leaders. The September 25, Thursday, António José Seguro gathered 47.3% of the negative references provided by users of Twitter. Pedro Passos Coelho met 32.9%. On Friday, the day was biweekly concerning the case Tecnoforma debate. If there are changes of feeling, POPSTAR records.

To head of refereeing, soccer technology would be “too boring” – Globo.com

The use of technology to assist arbitration is not well seen by the president of the National Arbitration Committee. In debate on the subject in the “Arena SporTV” , Sergio Correa da Silva said he considered that the end of the controversy will make the game of football anything more boring. But he admits that this path will be positive for referees

-.’s Part of football this movement, people end up arguing a lot. If you technology, personally speaking, I think we’ll end this discussion and football is very annoying. Now the hand of the referee, the way it is treated by the media, which is butchered, is not respected. Incidentally, respect in the country starts today in schools, has no more respect for the teacher. Something that has important social effects. The technology will become just the football but will lose the grace, in my opinion. But in this system, without the technology we have no limits to become the most respected referee.

The ruling also said it is favorable that the arbitrators be revealed at a news conference shortly after the matches. According to him, they leave tired and without the necessary analysis

-. I favor that after two or three days they can speak. After the game they do not have mechanisms, the referee out of the field exhausted. He must have his time to rest, analyze the moves along with the commission and the fellow – said

Urals employ new technology in extracting metals from … – Russian Gazette

Scientists at Federal University of
 Urals (UrFU, its acronym in Russian) developed a unique technology to extract
 the rare earth elements from uranium ore.

The technique consists in creating a
 this extraction allows adsorbent. In the course of three years it is planned to
 deploy a pilot production based on this technology.

According to scientists, this
 will reduce by almost a third the needs of rare earth metals in
 Russian market, reduce import dependence of many sectors of
 industry and create competition with China, which controls 97% of the market
 world.

The resumption

Taking advantage of the monopoly, the
 China often manipulates prices. Today, Russia is responsible for only
 about 100 tons – of 120 000 produced worldwide each year, although the
 USSR have been one of the world leaders in production. In the coming years, the new
 technology will increase that amount in tons.

“At the moment, in Russia, there
 effectively this type of production, but there is demand for these materials in many
 areas. For the country, it is economically advantageous to resume its own production of
 rare earth metals for which there is no increase in the price of the final product ”
 told the Gazeta Russa the vice-chancellor of
 area of ​​innovations UrFU, Sergei Kortov.

In a period of three years,
 Researchers must create an experimental section of metal production of
 rare earths, using the unique technology of leaching of uranium.

For this, the government will provide 300
 million rubles ($ 7.8 million) to the university. The project will be jointly funded
 by Moscow company “Energuítcheskie Proekti” (Russian, “Projects
 Energy “), which contribute more than 360 million rubles ($ 9.3
 million).

The uniqueness
 technology

The sulfuric acid solvent uranium and
 Rare earth is pumped underground. The resulting concentrate is extracted and
 transferred to a processing system from which are obtained
 desired components.

The real revolution that lies behind
 this technology is the use of an adsorbent which selectively extracts
 solutions of uranium, rare earth metals, and scandium, without affecting the
 uranium production.

The researchers were able UrFU
 synthesizing this adsorbent together with partners. There is no similar technology
 in the world.

“There is much that we occupy in the
 rare earth metals, always aware of the world situation. There was a time
 no one had an interest in developing this production. But we were
 producing technologies for the future. Now is our time, “said the Gazeta Russa team leader
 Scientific responsible for the new technology, Vladimir Ritchkov.

For him, the new technologies will help
 to improve the efficiency of processing of intermediate products ore
 uranium and ensure import substitution of rare earths and scandium
 in the defense industry, electronics, instrumentation, nuclear engineering,
 mechanical engineering, metallurgy and chemical industry.

 “The product range
 we offer for sale is huge. Are metals, oxides, polishes,
 pipes, magnets, luminescent materials, and many others, “says Ritchkov.

The technology behind these robots can save lives in traffic – Digital Look

Ok, let’s be honest: these toys created by the Japanese company Murata will not save anyone’s life on their own. What really lives up to the title of the matter is that the technology is applied in these little robots, that has the potential to help prevent traffic accidents, and thus prevent deaths.

The Murata develops these robots are able to interact with each other and dance group synchronously. For this, they need to be able to communicate using ultrasonic microphones and infrared sensors. The algorithm is able to inform the position of each of the robots so that they can act in a synchronized manner.

For now, robots are only able to run pre-programmed routines, but the company is already working on a system that allows real-time interaction. And that’s where the technology starts to be interesting for the safety of motorists. According to the company, the technology could be used in traffic control networks with the intention of reducing accidents

In fact, Murata develops their little robots just in order to present their technology.; there is no intention of putting them on the market, even though the demand may be large. The Japanese want to leverage communication systems between vehicles with the project, which already has major competitors like Ford and General Motors, giants who also develop similar technology.

“We believe that the wireless sensor data can become a central infrastructure for advanced integration of people and objects in connected societies, “says Yuichi Kojima, vice president of the company in a statement.

While that day comes, you can see the little robots Murata sympathetically and joyfully dancing in the video below. To get around, the robots use a ball and remain standing through three internal gyroscopes.

We tested the first 4G Internet with bus technology in … – Globo.com

Wi-Fi connection from 4G technology on buses is already a reality in Brazil. The first city to receive the news, for now, is São Paulo. The bus company Sambaíba Transport launched the service in 2104-10 Santana Subway line – Terminal Park Don Pedro II. The TechTudo, already checked other buses with 3G wireless internet, was to test the new alternative Internet access in public transportation.

Router with touchscreen display and Wi-Fi high speed reaches Brazil

The entire line 2104-10, consisting of eight new vehicles, has the connection and uses a wireless router VRV310-4G, provided by VEROnline. The 4G Internet was implemented in cars this past Saturday (20) and is provided by the carrier Vivo.

The downside is that this fleet does not have air conditioning, unlike bus technology 3G already circulated by the South Zone of São Paulo. On the other hand, the performance of the navigation Wi-Fi network surprised by allowing the user to watch videos on YouTube or Netflix while riding a city shuttle.

Before accessing the Internet at bus, it is necessary to agree on a contract for use of the network for passengers to make use of it with common sense and awareness. In the future, VEROnline require a registration with email, and be taking steps to safeguard against hackers who have managed to change the network name on some buses.

Currently, to connect to the web, just turn Wi-Fi on your smartphone, tablet or other mobile device and seek “SAMBAIBA_0001″ network. Then, just to login in the browser, after reading the terms of use and accept them.

How to use 4G Internet? Comment on the TechTudo Forum.

No need to have a phone that supports 4G frequency in the 2.5 GHz band.’s Bus router has a chip that already receives this signal and transmits only the connection via Wi-Fi to devices. Internet performance in our tests was exemplary: about five seconds to open a page. Videos began to roll in less than a minute.

According to VEROnline, the router supports 400 people with different IPs connected and makes the guard logs of users, working in accordance with the principles of the Brazilian Civil Marco Internet, adopted in 2014 The free internet will not mess with the price of bus tickets in town so far.

The first prototype of an electronic chip with advanced technology of 40 nanometers (one nanometer equals one millionth of a millimeter), fully developed in Brazil, has just come out of the laboratories of the contributing authors, in Campinas, bound for manufacturing to test, in Taiwan.

Intended for high speed optical communication systems, the new processor is strategic for the Brazilian industry that operates in this area – which now depends on imported components, with few suppliers in the world – and for the very competitiveness of segment in the country.

This is the first result of an important project of microelectronics, started last year in CPqD, which receives financial support from the BNDES (National Bank for Economic and Social Development) and the partnership Padtec, acting as industrial actor.

With three years’ duration, the project aims at the development of an OTN (Optical Transport Network) processor for optical transport network using 40-nanometer technology.

“treatment is a design that repositions the CPqD – and Brazil – in the microelectronics scenario of high complexity, with the design of systems on chip, or SoC (system-on-a-chip), “says Juliano Rodrigues de Oliveira, manager Optical Technologies organization.

According to him, the mastery of this technology will contribute to the independence of the Brazilian manufacturer of optical equipment, and also to reduce the costs of these products.

Oliveira also highlights a the challenges of the project is to put a huge amount (16 million) of transistors, connected by wires, within a millimeter silicon device.

The role of this integrated OTN circuit is doing the manipulation and combination of signals with different transmission rates and different protocols (voice, video, image), and then transmits them at the rate of 100 Gbits per second (Gbps)

Technology

The test chip, which is being produced by TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.) – a leading independent manufacturers (foundry) of dedicated chips in the world – will be available in early 2015 for use in proofs of concept, which will result in the final version of the processor. It is expected that the new chip is ready for use by the industry in early 2016

CPqD is working also on another strategic project in microelectronics:. Developing a signal processor digital (DSP, its acronym in English) for optical transceiver modules with 16-nanometer technology
