CAE Healthcare Unveils First Mixed Reality Ultrasound Simulation Solution

Posted by in categories: augmented reality, biotech/medical, computing, holograms

My doctor needs one of these.


CAE Healthcare announced the release of CAE VimedixAR, an ultrasound training simulator integrated with the Microsoft HoloLens, the world’s first self-contained holographic computer. The announcment marks CAE Healthcare as the first company to bring a commercial Microsoft HoloLens application to the medical simulation market.

VimedixAR delivers an unprecedented simulation-based training experience, allowing learners to interact and move freely within a clinical training environment that is augmented with holograms. For the first time, students will be able to examine 3D anatomy inside the body of the Vimedix manikin. As learners practice scanning an animated heart, lungs or abdomen, they will observe in real-time how the ultrasound beam cuts through anatomy to generate a ultrasound image.

Choosing a New System Architecture

Posted by in categories: business, food, sustainability

The food retail, foodservice and industrial cooling industries are in the midst of a momentous transition in refrigeration system architectures. Regulations are driving the need to implement sustainable systems with options growing exponentially. Emerson’s natural refrigerant expert, Andre Patenaude, provides advice on the best alternatives to future proof your system.

To get to what many call the “end game” of achieving compliance and meeting corporate sustainability objectives, more businesses are looking at systems based on natural refrigerants to help them achieve these goals.

The term “natural refrigerant” refers to substances that naturally occur in the environment. Unlike the synthetic refrigerants that have commonly been used in refrigeration applications — including hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) — ammonia (NH3 or refrigerant name R-717), propane (refrigerant name R-290) and carbon dioxide (CO2 or refrigerant name R-744) are three naturally occurring refrigerants that pose very little threat to the environment.

This Is How India’s Space Agency Plans to Launch a Record 104 Satellites in One Go

Posted by in category: satellites

OMG! Guess Guinness Records Book will be on hand at the launch.


India’s space agency will next month attempt to launch 104 satellites from a single rocket, a mission that could land it in the record books.

The Indian Space Research Organization plans to use its workhorse, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, to carry three satellites from India, and 101 smaller nano satellites from five countries—the U.S., Netherlands, Israel, Kazakhstan and Switzerland into orbit.

Vanishing point: the rise of the invisible computer

Posted by in categories: computing, nanotechnology, quantum physics

Yep; devices and computers will no longer be needed given the advancements that are coming in areas of Quantum, Synbio, nanotech, etc.

However, with QC crystal technology and the work done on parallel states we have some very interesting things coming in communications, entertainment/ media, etc.


The long read: For decades, computers have got smaller and more powerful, enabling huge scientific progress. But this can’t go on for ever. What happens when they stop shrinking?

Scientists have confirmed a brand new form of matter: time crystals

Posted by in categories: computing, quantum physics, time travel

More information on the time crystals to simulate time travel.


Two more teams of researchers have found ways to create time crystals, lattices that repeat not in space but in time, breaking time-translation symmetry.

Though applications are unclear, the research could help us better understand quantum properties and solve the problem of quantum memory associated with quantum computing. Time crystals repeat their atomic structure in time. At the very least, they are a contradiction.
