Einstein" robot will "watch face"

By Haven Frbiz

At first glance the long bushy beard and a tangled gray hair and is rich in expressions of "people", perhaps you think that scientists are the late Albert Einstein standing in front of you. Look carefully before one can know that this is only a smile, eyes will be turning around, you can communicate with the "feelings" of the robot simulation.

A few days ago, "Einstein" robot in the United States, "Technology, Entertainment and Design" session the first time on debut.

According to the United States on February 28 media reported that the "Einstein" Einstein robot looks to scientists as a model.

The United States because of the use of the robot technology Hansen David Hansen, president of the invention of flexible materials "Frubber" produced by the skin, "Einstein" as a real person delicate pores have a diameter of only 40 nano-nano-4.

Because at 31 with facial muscle exercise of man-made, but also with the University of California, San Diego, California Institute of Telecommunications and Information Technology students are prepared facial recognition software - it's based on more than one million kinds of facial image analysis, the "Einstein" can at any time based on changes in human beings to change their emotional expression.

Hansen said, "Einstein" to identify the current sadness, anger, fear, doubt and so pleased, as well as human emotions. People also may be inferred that the age and sex, to make the appropriate response to the expression, such as nodding, shaking his head, raised his eyebrows and so easy motion.

Hansen jokingly said: "Can not work out apart from the theory of relativity, and Einstein's other it."

Robot has a face can be said to be a major breakthrough in technology, the researchers from the University of California, the development of new technologies so that robot is no longer "hideous face" but "cordial" a lot.

Einstein chose the template for the form, that is, because he looks "cute and approachable."

The researchers said they hope that as soon as possible to use the technology to large-scale manufacture of robot go. However, "Einstein" At this stage, the high cost of production, about 75,000 U.S. dollars to be detrimental to the promotion. The researchers hope that future production, unit costs will be finally reduced to 200 U.S. dollars. - 18758

Learn how to play the piano: online piano course vs. piano teacher. Which one is better?

By Bryan Smith

This can be a difficult task if you're not very sure about this subject. Both have their pros and cons. And really depends on what you're looking for. In this article I will try to give you my opinion of the good and the bad of online piano courses weighed against having a piano teacher to teach you how to play the piano. The goal is to give you an idea of what you should be looking for if you really have a desire to learn how to play the piano but you're not sure how to go about it.

Ease of use

Piano teachers It really depends on what piano teach you have. Some are very easy to understand and they give you the information in a very down to earth manner. These are the best tie for piano teachers. They're the ones that care about your success. Then there's the other type of piano teacher. These piano teachers are really just trying to earn a paycheck and don't care. They just give you a whole bunch of information and let you sort through it. This isn't what you want so be careful when choosing.

Online piano courses These also depend on what course you have. As a whole online piano courses are usually more user friendly and a piano teacher, go figure. It might be because you can work at your own pace. You don't have to deal with trying to learn something that you're not ready to learn. This is a huge benefit of an online piano course. You will get occasionally, a dud. But online piano courses try to deliver you a very relevant and interactive user experience.

Accuracy of information

Piano teachers This is one place where I believe piano teachers excel at. You can usually count on a piano teacher, at least the good ones, to give you a very accurate and relevant information. The bottom line is they know their stuff otherwise they wouldn't be a piano teacher. Now while they may know what they're talking about, it doesn't necessarily mean they should be a piano teacher. Some piano teacher is are just plain boring.

Online piano courses Online piano courses can give you pretty good information. You may want to see who the creator of the courses. It is good to know the background of the individual who is teaching the course. If go right course is found the information could be well worth its weight in gold in online piano course. And to top it off there it is a great chance of you actually learning something because of the user experience these courses give you.

Price

Piano teachers Piano teacher is many times in my opinion overcharge for things that shouldn't be charged for. Yes, I know piano teachers are trying to earn a living, it's understandable that their rates would be a little higher. But some piano teacher is flat out rob you and then just like professors at college they sometimes just speed to throw information and get mad at you when you don't learn what they taught. And then after done being lost, they still want their check for the teaching they didn't do. This isn't all that time but a good majority of the time. You must look hard to find a good piano teacher.

online piano courses These courses provide a very cost effective way to learn how to play the piano. You can get many ball is materials and things of that nature that would cost three or four times that amount with the piano teacher. And keep in mind many times you only need to pay ones for a online piano course. So this is not a bad deal for you in the long run. - 18758

The Making of Music and Basic Digital Synthesis

By Dean Hunt

It is fun to play around with the ordinary approaches as well as the Fm synthesis, but there's much more that can be done with sound synthesis.

There are boundaries as to what could be easily performed with the latest methods of synthesis basically due to the fact that they are computer based. The full concept of digital synthesis is set on trying to duplicate acoustic and also analogue sounds. There's constantly numerous ideas and techniques being utilized, and the success is set on how accurate is the audible reproduction.

Four big methods are recommended.

Method 1 : Frequency Domain - Spectral Modeling If we took the Hartmann Neuron synthesizer as an instance, you would find it being a spectral model. Its very well practiced in additive synthesis and also resynthesis. This is relating to the frequency domain.

Method two : Physical Modeling Physical sounds such as spring simulations and also mass simulations can be very tightly reproduced by physical modeling. This is because this kind of modeling counts on mathematical models derived from the acoustical basis of instruments and components. If you really want to achieve those plucked sounds, then this is achieved from the Karplus Strong synthesis, via physical modeling.

Method 3 : No Model Sound Attempt This's also name as loose modeling. This's the method to be applied to AM, Walsh, FM along with Wavetable synthesis.

Method four : Time Domain For granular synthesis, waveform composition and also wave-set distortion you would want to use time based modeling.

Walsh synthesis is able to make new waveforms by using a good deal of square waveforms, plus its entirely digital. Theres one problem with this technique though, and that's the difficulty with being able to adjust the frequency spectrum. For a non complete digital or analogue, you might want to try Digital FM synthesis. In respect to complicated modulation, its extremely more adjustable.

Some try to utilise LFO-type modulation or Yamahass operator concept. For instance this is what FM synthesis is set on. However, it does not achieve huge success with trying to be like analogue subtractive synthesis. The PPG Wave and Waldorfs Microwave series can take the credit for making Wave table synthesis so well-known. Fragmented pieces of sampled sounds are simply played back and looped just like a sampler. To make this yet less tricky, you could take advantage of filters, envelopes and LFOs which are all the standard features.

It must be remembered that the four major methods we mentioned are still capable of using the analogue components, provided it's within their signal chain. Yet they are still digitally-based. - 18758

Revealed: A Guide To Vintage Synths and Synthesizers From 1970s

By Matthew Mills

Lets work backwards in time to take a look at the most well-known synths to ever hit the market.

A couple of people wanted those spectacular sounds of the 1970/80s back. The problem was the cost needed to buy and preserve those old machines. Then fortunately in 1995 along came the Access Virus. It consisted of a great deal of patch storage, effects and a vocoder. This truly was a new digital based virtual based analogue synthesiser.

Even though first introduced in 1992 the Roland JV series came to be known. These're the Roland workstation series of semi synths. It all began with the JV-80 and 90. And then progressed onto the JV 1080 and JV 2080. What these produced were awesome in regards to exceedingly exact and totally believable genuine instrument samples. It proved to be a brilliant money saver for musicians. No longer did they require to count on real instruments. They were paced with expansion selections and polyphony so the JV series worked it's way into the XV series that you see on the market nowadays.

The most best sold synth known in the history was the Korg M1 in 1988. This particular synth was a semi-workstation synth. The price, sound and look of it presents how much effort the maker put in. As a good traditional subtractive synthesizer sound, the A1 synthesis technique made this possible. When you mixed this with the 16 voice polyphony and the many built-in effects and sequencer, you had it all. Theres zero doubts as to why this synth was so popular.

Several of you will be very familiar with the Roland D-50 from 1987, as it is still used nowadays. It has lots of polyphony and could be heard on a couple of the records of the 1980/90s. The new LA synthesis architecture never become a favourite item, but it fit in well with the eight bit form of PCM sampling. It allowed for peculiar sounds that had never been known before.

In 1984, hope rose for those fans of synthesizers that could just not afford to be involved in the past. This's brought about because of the Roland Juno-106. It permitted hybrid DCO based synthesis technology to be practiced by musicians who had never had the chance in the past. It's limited to a single filter and oscillator, it had an supreme chorus effect and sounds from the 80s that made it into a very well-known item. - 18758
