Pants with special pocket for future smartphone included

The smartphones are becoming classic obsolete mobile phones in the same way that a current mobile phone makes it incredibly bulky classic cable, is inevitable. What remains to be seen is how much new technology affects other non-technological elements that surround us. For example, you might add a smartphone labor costs to the list of items you carry in his pockets with wallet, keys, etc.. That is why they are starting to appear clothing designs than a decade ago seem absurd but today these pants make sense as:

Basically it is pretty classic jeans but incorporate a pocket on the side with the idea that you can save some gadget, either a small or a modern mobile phone screen smartphone with 4 or 5 inches. The pocket opens forward as you can see in the photo, so you just have to do finger crimp and pull forward to get the mobile or resave. The only downside I see is that it seems to have a secure closure which can facilitate the loss or theft of the smartphone.

The official name of these pants is 'Social Replay Denim jeans' pocket and have called in a fun way as 'I/O Pocket' (input output pocket). Is offered for sale for a price of around 100 euros but not worldwide, however the important thing here is the concept itself and the fact that sooner or later begin to see in clothing stores all kinds of garments like this one designed to carry smartphones and perhaps even tablets.

This is a real weapon 50Kw laser destroys airborne drone and steel sheets

The cinema has accustomed us to the future is filled with systems based on laser weapons, from guns to swords through guns. By now the twenty-first century can expect that these weapons become real, in this case the hand of this model Rheinnmetall German brand with a power of 50kW and an aspect (unromantic from the point of view of science fiction) like this:

The gun has been tested on a number of test objectives and, apparently, the result has been satisfactory.

In one of them was the laser cannon can rip holes through 15mm steel plate at a distance of 1km. Then, the computer system was able to detect the presence 3Km drone flying away at a speed of 50 meters per second. When approached 2Km drones laser cannon took action and shot down like mosquitoes.

 

The last test was based on a mortar casting metal balls moving in the air at 50 meters per second. In this case the system was able to detect the ball before it hit the ground and then calculate the mortar position from which it was launched to destroy.

It's not science fiction despite appearances, actually the same company already had similar patterns of less power (10kW) and is easy to foresee that other higher end manufacturing more destructive capacity and a longer range of action. In fact this technology may make obsolete much of the current weapons including tanks, guns on ships, aircraft armament and perhaps Death Stars.

What is the most corrupt government in the world?

Occasionally we include in the occasional blog article that has no direct relationship with technology, but in this case maybe it has it indirectly. Specifically it is a study by Transparency International that gives a score to each country in the world according to their level of corruption. The points to be taken into account to assess each country are cases of bribery, speculation, nepotism and corruption and dirty dealings in the public sector.


The end result may not surprise many, but I think the results in the country where I live are really optimistic. Yet you get the big picture and you realize something important: the first world countries, the richest and most prosperous have lower levels of corruption, just the opposite in the third world countries. The main problem is that the only ones who can remove corruption in a country are corrupt governing them, so it's a bottomless pit right? If your country does not appear in the graphics still look complete ranking in the world rankings by country here.

Ultrathin solar panels that are installed as a sticker

This is one of those inventions that may change the way you see the tech world around you: flexible solar panels that can stick to any smooth surface like a vulgar sticker. Thanks to Stanford University may be able to get electricity from sunlight hitting just one of these fine panels to a window or directly in the case of your mobile phone.

Until now, traditional solar panels were difficult to install, besides being too thick to incorporate them theoretically portable gadgets that you carry in your pocket. Thanks to this new generation of panels this problem is solved and also has the advantage that you could even attach them to devices and objects with irregular surfaces. Beyond that, the technology used could also be applied to make electronic circuits and even flexible LCD screens that may contribute to future smartphones, computers or e-book readers you can stick on the wall of your room or carry rolled as a newspaper
