The technology of car lights is growing, but not reach the mass

This is the conclusion of experts at the National Institute of Traffic  Safety IIHS  (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) after a study lasting many years.   In all tests to assess the safety of car headlights in 2016, only two received the "Good" title from the IIHS.   By 2018, that number jumped to 32. According to the agency's regulations, "Good" is the highest title.   In addition, 58 other vehicles have received "acceptable" ratings in the headlights category.   After passing the test each vehicle, the results and then on the evaluation board, which IIHS "accidentally" found that it is the technology of the headlights as well as of course is only equipped on the model. Luxury and expensive cars.   Many automakers install LEDs for the highest-end models of their models, but in the lower versions only traditional halogen lamps are available.   To IIHS research shows that LED technology improves the visibility of the driver during ni

Facebook and MIT use AI to address 4 billion siblings in remote areas

Brothers who live in remote, remote areas will soon have a simple, easy-to-find  home address  placed by  artificial intelligence  .   The system will be developed by  Facebook  and  MIT  , which uses the  machine learning  algorithm to identify and assign addresses to locations within the satellite imagery.   Researchers believe that this approach will be cheaper, more efficient than other mapping techniques.   Statistics show that there are still about 4 billion people in the world without a clear physical address.   That's why researchers want to find an effective way to solve that.   And after the research, they trained a  deep learning  algorithm that allowed them to scan satellite images and identify pixels containing paths.   At the same time, they use a different algorithm to get these pixels and to group them together into a network of paths that can be analyzed and broken down into quadrants.   When everything is "spread out" clearly, the algorithm will use the

Leicester Square - the seventh cathedral will officially open in December

With the growing popularity of audio-visual technology and the emergence of 3D imaging technology or virtual reality, the number of moviegoers has decreased dramatically.   Travelers in the United States are less likely to see the movie, while in the UK theaters also share the scene "afternoon market".   Instead of going to the movies like before, people choose other entertainment needs more quickly such as playing games or simply switch to Netflix movie channel.   It is undeniable that movie theaters are no longer as "favored" as before.   This is also the reason why a system of British cinema has decided to cooperate with  Dolby  to revive the theater was dubbed as "Cathedral of the seventh art."   Odeon  's  Leicester Square  cinema is one of Europe's most famous theaters.   The cinema has 1,679 seats, a staggering number.   Set in the heart of central London, this theater has hosted hundreds of premieres and royal festivities during its 81 year

Not only Office, Windows 10 is also refreshed icon set

Not only the  Office suite  refreshes familiar icon sets that even  Windows 10  refreshes system icons.   Jon Friedman, the director of Office design at Microsoft, said the change was systemic and across Microsoft.   To He says Office is just the beginning of an effort to update the entire logo in a way that is in the Microsoft ecosystem.   In his blog post, Friedman also posted a few iconic concept images of applications such as Photos, News, Mail and many other  Windows-based  applications.   To Currently Windows 10 is still using the icon mix between new and old, some icons have a lifetime of more than 10 years.   Of course, these icons have outdated designs and are no longer compatible with the design of Windows 10. Microsoft has continually improved the interface design of Windows 10 to make it more modern, It is located in the old Control Panel to Windows Settings and this time, the company focused on icon design.   Hopefully Microsoft will make the right place, change all
