The Ubiquity of Touchscreen technology

May 17th, 2012 by User | No Comments | Filed in knowledge, Technology

The Touchscreen technology has been driving the market presently and every gadget is rushing to join
this bandwagon. While ATM machines and industrial control panels were the only place where we could
avail from a touch, the case is no more the same with every other gadget imbibing the touchscreen
technology today. Apple redefined the Touchscreen technology in 2007 with its iPad. The spontaneity
and effortlessness that Touchscreen grants is the key reason for its popularity.

The major components of Touchscreen technology are the touch sensor is a mantle that responds to
the touch either resistive or capacitive. A touch causes the change in the flow of electric current that
runs through the sensors in order to determine the location of the touch. The controller facilitates
conversion of these voltage sensors into signals that decodes the devices (computer, mobile). Software
comprehends the sensor with the necessary information imputed by the controller.

The two major kinds of Touchscreen technology available are:

Resistive Touchscreens: There exist two layers of electrically conductive material that is separated

by insulating dots. The circuit is completed when two layers touching each other. The information
regarding the point of contact is consequentially sent for processing to the computer controller for the
desired action to take place.

Advantages of Resistive touchscreen:
Longer life
Cheap
Durable with the protective layer on the glass panel
Easy to use
Responds to any object including finger, pen, stylus, etc
Disadvantages of Resistive touchscreen

Content isn’t clear and might appear bulky
Image isn’t sharp as it emits less light relatively
Requires increased pressure comparatively to operate
Does not respond to multi- touch
Poor visibility during sunlight
Consumes more power

Capacitive touchscreen: There are two major types of capacitive touchscreens where one can

respond to multiple touches while the other cannot. There is a single layer known as the grid sealed with
an electro conductive material. With a finger touch, the charge from the capacitive layer transfers to the
finger, determining the contact point resulting in the desired action to take place.

Advantages of Capacitive touchscreen:

Clear screen as it emits less light
Long life
Responds to multiple touch
Smoother response
Consumes less power
Clear visibility as there is only one layer

Disadvantages of Capacitive touchscreen:
Does not respond to anything other than finger generally
Expensive
Lesser durability

How to Check Expiry of LPG Cylinder

May 16th, 2012 by User | No Comments | Filed in knowledge

lpg-cylinder-expiry

Have U ever heard about LPG cylinder’s expiry date….!!

Do you know that there is an expiry date (physical life) for LPG cylinders? Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause accidents. In this regard, please be cautious at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor.

Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:
On one of three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. D06.

The alphabets stand for quarters -

1. A for March (First Qtr),
2. B for June (Second Qtr),
3. C for Sept (Third Qtr),
4. D for December (Fourth Qtr).

The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean December qtr of 2006.

Please Return Back the Cylinder that you get with a Expiry Date, they are prone to Leak and other Hazardous accidents…

Do you know who is she?

Shakuntala Devi —Human Computer – Don’t forget this legend

Shakuntala Devi was born on November 4, 1939 in Bangalore,

In Dallas she competed with a computer to see who give the cube root of 188138517 faster, she won.

In 1977 At university of USA she was asked to give mentally the 23rd root of 91674867692003915809866092758538016248310668014430862240712651642793465704086709659 32792057674808067900227830163549248523803357453169351119035965775473400756818688305 620821016129132845564895780158806771 (201-digit number).

She answered in 50seconds. The answer is 546372891. It took a UNIVAC 1108 computer, full one minute and 2 seconds (10 seconds more) to confirm that she was right after it was fed with 13000 instructions.

On June 18, 1980 she demonstrated the multiplication of two 13-digit numbers 7,686,369,774,870 x 2,465,099,745,779 picked at random by the Computer Department of Imperial College, London. She answered the question in 28 seconds.

Her correct answer was 18,947,668,177,995,426,462,773,730. This event is mentioned on page 26 of the 1995 Guinness Book of Records.

Now she is known to be Human Computer.

Photograph of the Bhairava Japa or ‘jumping rock’ at Girnar in Gujarat, taken by F. Nelson in the 1890s from the Lee-Warner Collection: ‘Photographs of Junagadh’. The Girnar mountain in Gujarat rises more than 900 metres above the plain and is particularly sacred to the Jains. It was an important pilgrimage centre since the third century BC as indicated by the inscriptions on a boulder with the edicts of the emperor Ashoka and the proclamations of a Kshatrapa and a Gupta ruler. Along the principal path that leads to the central peak there are gateways, shrines and tanks and the principal group consist of 16 Jain sanctuaries dedicated to Neminatha. These temples date from the Solanki period and later. In the ‘Report on the Antiquities of Kathiawad and Kachh of 1874-75′, Burgess wrote, “On it..

An Indian man walks into the New York City bank and asks for the loan officer. He tells the Loan Officer that he was going to India for some business for 2 weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.
The Loan Officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan. So the Indian man hands over the keys and the documents of the new Ferrari car parked on the street in front of the bank.
The loan officer consults the president of the bank, produces all the required items and everything check out to be OK. The loan officer agrees to accept the car as a security for the loan. The bank president and the Loan Officer had a good laugh at the Indian for keeping a $750,000 Ferrari as a security and
taking only $5,000 has a loan.

An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari into the banks underground garage and parks it there.

Two weeks later the Indian returns and pays $5000 and the interest which comes to it $15.41. Seeing this, loan officer says, “Sir, we are very happy to have your business and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you are away, we checked you out and
Found out that you were a multi millionaire. What puzzled us was why would you bother to borrow $5000?” The Indian replies
“Where else in the New York City can I park my car for 2 weeks and for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return”.
