Latest Technology : Radar TerraSarX

TerraSarX, the latest technology for radar mapping by a German, who otherwise are able to overcome the cloud, offered to be tested in the air above Indonesia."In return, they offer the provision of spatial data needed by various institutions in Indonesia's system," said researcher Geomatics Coordination Agency for Surveys and Mapping Agency Dr Ade Komara Mulyana between Space Radar Technology Seminar in Jakarta, Wednesday.For example, demand for spatial data mudflow Sidoarjo, the latest condition of Merapi spatial data, spatial data flood to Jakarta in early February, or spatial data requests from the IPB and other research institutions will be provided free of charge, he said.Indonesia has long been a test of the most complete range of radar mapping system ever developed in the world because of its location on the equator and the closure of high clouds, so appropriate for the targeted radar test can overcome the cloud.Because it is time offender mapping in Indonesia is not merely the object, but also as a subject with a radar mapping of existing trials and welcomed as an opportunity to assist Indonesia in providing spatial data, he said.Previously been tried RADARSAT satellite system, ERS, JERS, Envisat, and SRTM-Airborne IFSAR system.Meanwhile, Chief Operating Infoterra Nikolaus Faller said the new system of mapping the Earth with radar TerraSarX could be an option in geospatial mapping in the future because in addition to the closure of the cloud is able to overcome the problem of low-cost as well."TerraSarX capable of mapping the Earth uninterrupted cloud at a cost of only $ 5 per Km2," he said.Ade is recognized, the cost of aerial photography with airborne, mapping technology that can handle the clouds, reaching 40-50 dollars per Km2, while the Ikonos satellite technology that is still troubled by a cloud-cost 37 U.S. dollars per Km2.Ade said, Indonesia would prefer working or renting radar, rather than have it for mapping, because the cost of investment in technology mapping radar and radar operational costs are very large and disproportionate to the results obtained."Tubsat (LAPAN-owned micro satellite which was launched a year ago - ed) has actually been producing video images` live `the archipelago, but has not translated into the mapping," he said

Mazda's latest generation technology SKYACTIV

Mazda has introduced a technology they call "SKYACTIV" future generations. This technology consists of six components of the vehicle, the gasoline engine, diesel engine, automatic and manual transmission, body, and chassis.

The highest and lowest

Of all these technologies, the most proud of and is the first sequence is SKYACTIV-G, which is a direct injection gasoline engine with a compression ratio of 14.0: 1. Mazda also claim it as a gasoline engine in the world with the highest compression. The results of the test machine is mounted on the Mazda Demio, (outside of Japan called the Mazda2)-fuel consumption is 30 km / liter.They also explained, with a high compression ratio, the engine fuel efficiency up to 15 percent, as well as torque. Nevertheless, this machine is still okay to use for day-to-day (usually a high compression engine for racing). The resulting torque is also increased and can be obtained starting from a low to moderate spin. For this, use the Mazda exhaust system 4-2-1 formation. The other part is developed hollow piston and injector number of holes.The latest technology and is no less interesting is the SKYACTIV-D, the diesel engine with a compression ratio of the lowest in the world, 14.0: 1. They say, this machine uses a two-stage turbocharger. With a low compression ratio, the sound is very smooth engine.However, the machine remains responsive from low speed to high.In fact, the resulting torque increases and obtained from the low speed range up to 5200 rpm. In addition, according to Mazda, this engine meets the emission standards Euro6.
Transmission & chassis

For transmission, Mazda says the new technology SKYACTIV-Drive. This new generation automatic transmission is very efficient and able to combine all the advantages of a conventional automatic transmission, CVT and double clutch transmission.For manual transmissions, the updates make the gearshift move so much faster and easier. Transmission due to the smaller size of the repaired structure.Turning to the body, called the Mazda SKYACTIV-BODY. Bodi is eight percent lighter than before, but also more robust. Ability to withstand a collision claimed more steady. It was obtained as per the order made by a straight structure.Speaking of the chassis, there SKYACTIV-Chassis. Development focused on reducing the weight and make the control more stable.Another development is the front strut and multi-link suspension with the weight of the more light, but with increased strength (around 14 percent lighter chassis than the old Mazda).Mazda's first product that will use the latest generation of this technology is SKYACTIV Demio. Product will be marketed in Japan in the early first half of 2011.About the development of this technology, Takashi Yamanouchi, Representative Director, Chairman of the Board, President & CEO of Mazda, said, "Mazda is updating the entire engine, transmission, and platform product line. Mazda also changed the production process, from research and development, up to mass production.We must innovate in all areas of technology.

Latest Technology: PULSTAR, Busi Power Generating 20,000 x Kali Stronger

Enerpulse, a company based in Albuquerque, New Mexico has developed a spark plug with a different technology than currentspark plug technology.
Despite having the same shape and dimensions (shape anddimensions are adjusted to the engine ignition system and existing)with plugs that are now used, but the technology it uses is able to add torque to 12% and 20% more economical.
Enerpulse accompanied by Sandia National Laboratories, Pulstarpulse plugs, so the product is called, produces 20,000 times morepower than the spark plug is now widely used. Spark plugtechnology is currently only produces 50 watts, while the Pulstarproduce 1 million watts. Amount is more than enough to completelyburn all the fuel in the engine combustion chamber.
According Enerpulse, that much power will not damage the engine.Pulstar only produce 1 million watts for 2 nanoseconds. A very short time is enough to burn the fuel in the combustion chamber and the engine is too short to make the engine block or other engine components to bear the excessive heat.
Pulstar has a different working principle when compared to regularplugs. In the ordinary spark plugs, a lot of wasted energy into heatduring the ionization process elektrodenya. This means that thespark jumps will not be formed during the voltage between the tipelektrodenya not sufficient to make a splash, and consequently a lot of wasted energy.
While Pulstar works by collecting the energy in a resistor. If thevoltage to be used to create sparks in short supply, then the energy will pass through the resistor and instantly emerged form the sparkbetween the ends elektrodenya.
