S. Korean firm unveils robot playmate for kids South Korean telecoms operator KT on Wednesday rolled out a robot playmate for children in a move aimed at cashing in on the potentially lucrative industry. A child plays with a robot playmate entitled "Kibot" which has a monkey face and a display panel on its body during its launching event in Seoul. Parents can remotely control the robot by mobile phone and monitor children via a camera embedded in Kibot. Kibot, which has a monkey face and a display panel on its body, can read books, sing songs, play online games and wheel around with its cheeks blinking and head tilting. The robot, about 20 centimetres (eight inches) tall, also allows children to make video phonecalls to their parents when an electronic card is placed on its face. Kibot, targeting those aged three to seven, can also tell children "Let's play" along with a few other expressions -- such as "It feels good" in response to a pat. Seo said things have changed with wireless networks so common and smartphones ubiquitous.
NAO Is Your Tiny Robot Servant Forget waiting for that Google driverless car to come out, CEO and founder of RobotsLAB, Elad Inbar has already made a robot that can do almost anything for you, including drive you anywhere you want to go. Well, at least if you are a baby. The NAO is a 58-cm tall open-sourced, humanoid robot that will drive a baby car, fetch the paper, get you a beer or even recognize who you are and carry on a conversation. I first saw this tiny robot driving a baby car around the startup alley floor at Disrupt. NAO is making inroads in STEM learning as well. He hinted that this was just the prototype and there could be plans in the future to make a life-size version.
Jungfraujoch, Suiza: Centenario de un sueño sobre raíles en Espíritu Viajero, magazine de viajes online El Jungfraubahn, “tren rojo”, subiendo hacia la estación Jungfraujoch Se han cumplido 100 años (1 agosto) de una gesta ferroviaria: Jungfraujoch, la estación más alta de Europa, situada a 3.454 metros de altitud. Y como en Suiza la vida, más que sobre ruedas, va sobre raíles, éstos son capaces de llevarnos hasta allí intercambiando trenes desde los mismísimos aeropuertos de Ginebra o Zurich. Aunque Jungfraubahn, el ‘tren rojo’, tiene su punto de partida en Kleine Scheidegg, estación situada a 2.061 metros de altitud, la aventura ferroviaria tiene un preludio que arranca en Interlaken, acogedora localidad del Oberland Bernés que, como su nombre indica, se gestó entre dos lagos otrora unidos: Brienz y Thun. Mirador de Harden Kulm, con vistas panorámicas sobre Interlaken y la Jungfrau El viaje en tren desde Interlaken a Jungfraujoch, que dura unas dos horas y media, arranca en la estación de Interlaken-Ost.

Tonara’s iPad App Looks To Reinvent Sheet Music For The Digital Age If you’ve ever played an instrument, there’s a very good chance you’re familiar with the annoyances involved with sheet music. For one, it can be tough to find the piece you’re looking for, and then there’s the matter of actually playing the piece — every few stanzas, you find yourself pausing to flip to the next page (or you have to recruit a friend or family member to turn the pages for you. Now TechCrunch Disrupt Battlefield Finalist Tonara thinks it has a fix: it’s launching a new iPad application that will display your sheet music, then listen to which notes you’re playing, turning the page automatically at exactly the right moment. And the app appears to be quite impressive from a technical perspective — it supports polyphonic note recognition (so it could recognize notes being played by both your left and right hand simultaneously on a piano, for example), and can adjust to tempo and missed notes. Judge Q&A: BG: I’m quizzical about the size of the market. A: $2 Billion market.
Aventuras de un dominguero: ALPES 2012 | 11. Jungfraujoch, Top of Europe Miércoles 8 de Agosto. Llevábamos 10 días por los Alpes disfrutando de parajes increíbles y este, nuestro último día, no iba a ser menos. Aunque el día anterior el clima no estuvo del todo bien, haciendo caso a las predicciones metereológicas nos arriesgamos y compramos los billetes para el Jungfraubahn, el ferrocarril de montaña que sube, atravesando el corazón del Monte Eiger, a la estación de tren más alta de Europa, a 3.454 metros de altura. Una vez arriba, en Jungfraujoch: "el techo de Europa", obtendríamos unas vistas asombrosas de los montes Jungfrau, Mönch y Eiger, así como del glaciar más extenso, largo y profundo de los Alpes: El glaciar Aletsch, todo ello declarado patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Jungfraubahn. El día amaneció perfecto, así que pese al madrugón para coger el tren, estábamos contentos. El primer tren lo cogimos en la estación de Interlaken Ost. Kleine Scheidegg. Este primer tren llega hasta Kleine Scheidegg, a las faldas de Mönch y Eiger. Grindelwald.
