Innovation@Intel: 48-Core Single-Chip Cloud Computer – Reading Brain Waves with Computers
June 15th, 2010 |
No Comments
Imagine future laptops capable of vision comparable to the human eye, accurately seeing objects and motion. You could shop online using the laptop’s 3D camera and display and see a “mirror image” of yourself wearing the clothes you are “trying on,” seeing how the fabric drapes when you move or twirl and how the color complements your skin tone. Researchers from Intel Labs recently demonstrated (PDF 652KB) a experimental 48-core Intel microprocessor that could make this and much more a reality. Some researchers believe future computers with processors derived from this chip may even be able to read brain waves – where simply thinking about a command could make it happen. The long-term goal of the 48-core microprocessor is to add scaling features to computers in order to spur entirely new software applications and human-machine interfaces. Intel presented a paper on this technology at this week’s 2010 Symposia on VLSI Technology and Circuits. Read more about the “Single-Chip Cloud Computer” (PDF 1.15MB) in Microprocessor Report and see more about how Intel innovation is changing the way we work, live, and play.

Plus, they should all be allowed to be taken over by a remote, approved agency in case of problems that would negatively affect the ability of the vehicle to reach its destination safely. Here, Knowledge Center mobile and wireless analyst J. Gerry Purdy explains why we should use networking of vehicles, remote robotics and device intelligence to prevent problems that would endanger passenger lives.
– In the renowned 1987 movie, quot;Planes, Trains amp; Automobiles, quot;
advertising exec Neal Page (Steve Martin) and shower ring salesman Del
Griffith (John Candy) are total strangers. Together, they use all three
