3 Future Technology

Barcelona (29/02/2012) - The rapid development of technology will make thescience fiction that usually only exist in the film come true. That's theprediction of the proposed Google Chairman Eric Schmidt in a speech at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012 in Barcelona,Spain.
"People are predicting that the hologram and a car that can run itself will soon become a reality is really true,". Here are threepredictions of future technology derived from Schmidt's speech:

1. Automatic steering cars will become common
Google has tested a technology that allows cars to run itself withouthuman assistance. In fact, the car has been successfully run onpublic streets without significant obstacles.
According to Schmidt, the car has been tested as far as 322thousand kilometers. Google using radar and other sensors so that the car in question can independently recognize the road, other vehicles or passersby.

2. Humans will be represented robot
Small robots will be used to represent human beings to various places. The robot is equipped with voice and video transmissionscan be seen by the people they represent, so they need not attendin person.
"In the future you will be able to send a robot in every event," saidSchmidt. Currently, this technology was the middle of the rapiddevelopment of robotics for a variety of uses.

3. Virtual reality through the internet
Scmidht state of Internet technology will allow people to use a kind of virtual reality for a visit to various places and countries. In thisvirtual reality, people can gather freely without having to meet physically. But there may be a connectivity problem inunderdeveloped countries.

"It will redefine the relationship between the people in the world. Inthis new world, there would be little dictator," said Schmidt.

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.
