Making the Switch To Windows "Workstation" 2008

snydeq writes "Disenchanted with Vista? Why not convert Windows Server 2008 into the lean, efficient, reliable 'power user' OS that Windows should be? InfoWorld's Randall Kennedy, who has been using a converted 'Workstation' 2008 as his primary OS since hitting a wall using Vista as a Visual Studio development platform four months ago, says the guerrilla OS has turned his Dell notebook into a well-oiled machine that never gets sluggish and rarely needs to reboot. Those interested in making the switch should check out win2008workstation.com, a clearinghouse for 'Workstation' 2008 tips and techniques. Kennedy also offers a link to a Windows 2008 Workstation Converter utility for those looking to quickly convert a fresh Server 2008 install without hacking the registry or manually installing/enabling lots of services and features.

Robotic Automation installs robotic palletising equipment for paper products manufacturer

Lenovo ThinkPad W700

Lenovo has introduced the ThinkPad W700, a 17-inch widescreen mobile workstation engineered with technologies and innovations to exceed the demands of the most data and graphics-intensive users. Lenovo brings the industry’s first built-in digitizer and color calibrator to a mobile workstation and combines these innovations with first-in-market technologies such as new NVIDIA Quadro FX mobile graphics and supporting the upcoming Intel mobile quad core processor. Other features such as optional dual hard drives with RAID configurations, up to 8 GB of high speed DDR3 memory, a range of wireless connectivity options and excellent multimedia capabilities including an optional Blu-ray DVD burner/player are said to make the ThinkPad W700 mobile workstation the standard-bearer for power and performance in a mobile workstation.

Robotic Testing System

The roboTest F robotic testing system is designed for flexible specimens, such as films, textiles and fleece materials, but even metals andwires can be tested using the corresponding grips and tooling. The system allows testing to be carried out overnight and at weekends therebyreducing the need for shift working. In addition it is possible to carry out testing using unsupervised or relatively unskilled operators.Robotic testing systems simplify the processes required for quality management systems such as ISO 9001 because the testing sequence is pre-programmed, and not subject to human error. Results and long term statistics are also available in real-time helping to minimise communication inefficiencies between different production processes.

400th robotic-assisted heart surgery

June 24, 2008 The rise of robotic surgery has marked a new age in medical science and one of its pioneers has just reached a major milestone. Dr. W. Randolph Chitwood, Jr. has performed his 400th robotic-assisted mitral valve repair at Pitt County Memorial Hospital.

Clarinet Wins Robotic Orchestra Competition

Sasha writes "The Australian designed robotic clarinet beat out Dutch and Finnish entries this year at the robotic orchestra competition. The researchers don't expect to replace human musicians, but are instead interested in what makes the difference between playing music well and playing music poorly. There is also a video available of the performance."

ORLive Presents: Robotic-Assisted Hysterectomy

On Thursday, August 14, watch a Robotic-Assisted Hysterectomy recorded from University Hospitals Case Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. The procedure will be performed by Vivian von Gruenigan, MD, and moderated by Robert DeBernardo, MD. Robotic-assisted hysterectomy provides patients with a shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery time. During the webcast, viewers have the opportunity to e-mail the physicians directly with any questions they have about the procedure.

PLEO, Interactive ?Robotic launched in KSA

Samir Photographic Supplies (SPS) today launched PLEO – an interactive robotic pet – in KSA in a fun filled, interactive event held at Al Shallal Theme Park, Jeddah. The event saw media and guests attend the launch with their families, so their children could play & interact with PLEO, which acts, responds and behaves in a lifelike manner. The attendees enjoyed interacting with PLEO and children were especially thrilled and intrigued by the behavior of the Robot. Speaking at the launch, Mr. Omar Hindi, Marketing Director of SPS said: “PLEO has been received with unprecedented excitement across the world and it is set to revolutionize adult’s & children’s playtime everywhere. We are very happy to introduce this interactive robotic pet in Saudi Arabia as interacting with PLEO will enable children learn several new things.

Seven patients treated under robotic surgery by AIIMS

Camerautomata Charlie: Image Digesting Robotic Duck

If documenting trips to faraway lands is beginning to take time away from actually enjoying them, then a robotic picture-taking duck may be just what you need. In an effort to "to liberate cameras from human operation," South Korean artist Taeyoon Choi created a traveling companion, "Camerautomata Charlie: Image Digesting Robotic Duck," that snaps photographs in response to other camera flashes and can print them on the spot or upload them to your favorite website using WiFi. The piece is being presented as part of a larger exhibit, "Tourists and Travelers," currently on display at Eyebeam Studios.

Sensopac Neural-Net Robot Hand May be What Droids Will Shake Hands With

Robotic hands and arms may be getting more sophisticated, but they don't really rival what we think C3-PO would have poking out of his torso. That is until now: an European science team have been busy creating the Sensopac robotic limb, and it's arguably the most human-like robotic limb yet. And partly that's because its sophistication is derived from software modeled on the human cerebellum. The arm has artificial skin that can sense force and direction in detail, and its 38 motors mimic the structure of human muscles and tendons to give it a very human-like grip.

Mars Lander's Robot Arm Shuts Down To Save Itself

Cowards Anonymous passes along a PCWorld article that begins, "The robotic arm on the Mars Lander found itself in a tough position over the weekend. After receiving instructions for a movement that would have damaged its wrist, the robotic arm recognized the problem, tried to rectify it and then shut down before it could damage itself, according to Ray Arvidson, a co-investigator for the Mars Lander's robotic arm team and a professor at Washington University in St. Louis."

NASA Tests Lunar Robots and Spacesuits on Earthly Moonscape

WASHINGTON, June 13 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Conditions on the moon will be harsher, but prototype NASA robotic vehicles braved sand storms and unprecedented temperature swings this month on sand dunes near Moses Lake, Wash., to prepare for future lunar expeditions. Teams from seven NASA centers and several universities conducted the tests from June 2-13. "The goal was to gain hands-on experience with specific technical challenges anticipated when humans return to the moon by 2020, begin to explore the lunar surface, and set up outposts," said Test Director Bill Bluethmann of NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. NASA's Human Robotic Systems Project, part of the agency's Exploration Technology Development Program, focused on human and robotic mobility systems for the moon, but also looked at communication and command and control syste

General Dynamics to Deliver Trusted Virtualization Environment

General Dynamics C4 Systems has selected the OptiPlex 755 desktop by Dell as the computer hardware to host its Trusted Virtual Environment (TVE), a High Assurance Platform (HAP)-compliant workstation intended for classified work by government users. The workstation enables individuals to use a single computer workstation to securely access information and applications from multiple networks, at different classification levels, as opposed to limiting a computer to a single security level.

By 2020, Droids Could Explore Space For Us

All the best sci-fi films have them, and they may become our future automated space explorers. Currently, one of the biggest drawbacks for using robots in space is that they depend on human input (i.e. commands need to be sent for every robotic arm motion and every rover wheel rotation). This means that, especially with missions operating far from Earth (such as the Phoenix Mars Lander and Mars Expedition Rovers), very simple and mundane tasks can take hours or even days to complete. One of the main reasons supporting manned exploration of space is that very complex science can be carried out very rapidly (after all, astronauts are human and many robotic operations that take weeks can be completed in seconds). But say if our robotic explorers had a high degree of automation? Say if they could sever the requirement for human input and carr
