promises

Open the car from the mobile promises comfort. A failure has shown that we may not be the only ones with the key

by

Imagine that it is enough to look at the windshield of a car to score its frame number – a 17 -character code visible from outside – introduce it into an internal tool, find out the name of the owner and link that vehicle to a mobile account. From there, you could unlock the doors remote from an official app, without touching a lock or forcing anything. That is fair what a cybersecurity researcher demonstrated After accessing the internal portal used by the dealers of a large car brand. We do not talk about an attack on users or public servants, but about a gap on the business platform that connects the manufacturer with its sales network. A rear door with access to connected functions and personal data. The failure was not in the car, but in the chain that unites everything Behind this finding is Eaton Zveare, who has been tracking vulnerabilities into digital platforms of large brands, especially of the automobile sector. This time it was no different. Zveare discovered that the internal web portal of a known car brand It allowed to modify the behavior of the system from the browser itself. Specifically, it managed to alter the login page code to skip security checks and create an administrator account with national privileges. With that account, access covered more than 1,000 concessionaires in the United States. From there, the problem dimension changed completely. It was not just about accessing internal resources of a concessionaire. The account he managed to generate gave access to the complete system: I could see the data of all the concessionaires connected, act in the name of other users without knowing their credentials and, the most delicate, accessing tools that allowed them to consult information about vehicles and their owners. All that from a platform that, in theory, is reserved for professionals in the sector. Zveare did not force anything, did not installed any malicious software or attacked from the outside. What he found was a badly closed door within a legitimate system. And the most worrying thing is that this door not only allowed him to enter: he offered, from within, a set of tools that nobody outside the manufacturer should control so easily. In the United States, the laws that regulate the sale of vehicles vary by state, but share a common principle: in most of them, Manufacturers cannot sell new cars directly to the consumer. They are obliged to do so through independent dealers, legally protected against direct competition of the manufacturer. That has given rise to a franchised network structure that groups thousands of points of sale and after -sales. Tesla has tried to uncheck that model and sell directly, but it has not been easy. Although he has achieved it in some states, in many others he continues to find legal restrictions that prevent him from selling or even delivering vehicles directly. Your case is the most visible exception, but not the norm. The most delicate is not that this system showed confidential information. The serious thing is that it allowed to act with high privileges, as if one is part of the official structure of the manufacturer. From there, it was possible to assume identities of other employees, intervene on registered vehicles anywhere in the country or access functions designed exclusively for authorized technicians. The portal was designed to give agility to the dealer network, not to resist malicious access from within As we say above, each car has a unique frame number. It is a code of 17 characters – right and numbers – that serves to legally identify it throughout the world. What the average driver probably does not imagine is that this code is visible from the outside, at the base of the windshield, and that in the context of this case it was the entrance key. In a real test, Zveare introduced a visible vin from the outside and obtained the name of the owner. From the portal it was also possible to match the vehicle to a new mobile account. Zveare did not try to drive any vehicles or alter its physical configuration. But with the control that I had, open it at a distance and empty its interior would have been perfectly possible. Today, The name of the affected manufacturer has not been made public. And it’s not because nobody knows. The researcher who discovered vulnerability, does know what brand he was behind the committed portal, but has decided not to mention it in his report or during his defense presentation. Nor Techcrunch, the first medium that echoed the case, has revealed the identity of the manufacturer. It is not something so unusual. In some cases, researchers choose to maintain the anonymity of the company involved by prudence, even when vulnerability has already been corrected to avoid putting third parties at risk: concessionaires, employees or customers who still depend on that system. It can also influence the fact that the compromised platform gave access to entire networks, not an isolated server.

China has just opened the first megatienda of humanoid robots. What comes later promises even more

by

What will it be to buy a robot like who buys a car? China responds with “Robot Mall”a megatienda in Beijing that its promoters present as the first 4S for humanoids: sales, spare parts, service and feedback of the user under the same roof. The idea is simple and ambitious at the same time, converting curiosids for daily use and maintenance contracts. What is a 4S (and why does it matter now). In China, the 4S was the answer to a simple question: what if I buy and maintain my car in the same place? This model is now exported to robots: a place to see what they do, how much they cost and how they remain with spare parts and technical service, in addition to measuring the customer experience. If it works, it converts curiosids for humanoids into informed purchase decisions. The appointment is in Yizhuang, the Beijing Alta District also known as Beijing E-Town. He opened on August 8, in parallel to the World Robot Conference (from August 8 to 12), and occupies four floors with about 4,000 square meters. On the ground floor, Immersive demonstrations of real uses in industry and health Together with reference humanoids such as Unitree G1, Ubtech Walker S or “Tiangong”. The second level is more interactive, with brain-machine interfaces, robotic arms and participatory exhibitions; the third centralizes diagnosis, replacement of components and remote operation and maintenance; The fourth floor is designed to close B2B agreements in negotiation rooms. What can you see and do there. There are seven major categories: medical, industrial, company, bionic, integrated, biped and wheels. Among the demonstrations, a robotic dog dressed in lion, a humanoid that dispenses traditional Chinese medicine, arms that paint, machines that brings or prepare coffee, and others that remove pharmacy boxes or serve drinks from a bar. Scenes that are a reflection of how advanced this technology is, but also of the path that still has. Are they sold to the public? Not all robots are ready to leave the store towards a living room or factory, but many can be bought or hired. Prices start around 260 euros (2,000 yuan) – thought for simple company or educational models – and scale up to several million yuan, a high range that is equivalent to several hundred thousand euros according to the platform and its configuration. In most cases, the sale includes installation, training and technical service. In the 4S format, the last “S” refers to Survey, which in this context means collecting the opinion and experience of the customer after the purchase. In Robot Mall this translates into periodic reviews, remote diagnosis, parts replacement and technical assistance, but also to collect data on how robots are used on a day -to -day basis. That information returns to the manufacturer to refine functions, improve reliability and prepare future versions. Why now. In 2024, China manufactured 556,000 industrial robots and concentrated two thirds of the world’s robotics patents, according to data from the Xinhua news agency. With figures thus, the opening of Robot Mall is no accident: it is part of a strategy to get the humanoids from the laboratory, put them in real environments and reinforce a sector that in Yizhuang already moves more than 10,000 million yuan in annual production value. What comes later. Robot Mall will not stay in this initial version. According to those responsible, in November 2025 they promise a 2.0 version, with more types of more varied robots and use scenarios. The idea is to expand demonstrations to more realistic environments and add manufacturers, reinforcing the role of Yizhuang as a nerve center of robotics in China. The images speak for themselves. The AP agency has prepared a photographic gallery with some of the best moments of the opening of Robot Mall. You can enjoy them directly from your website.

The US wants to give up bringing the most valuable samples collected on Mars. Lockheed promises to do it for less than half

by

Since February 2021, The Rover Perseverance patiently travels the Jezero crateran old river basin on the surface of Mars. Over there, where millions of years ago the water flowedNASA Robot It has been collecting fragments of rock and Martian dust With a very specific objective: Find signs of past life. It is not any mission. Is, According to NASA itselfthe first step of an ambitious plan to bring intact samples from another planet. For more than three years, Perseverance has done his job in silence and the samples that Now rest inside of small sealed tubes, carefully deposited on the Martian surface or stored aboard the Rover itself. From space, bread crumbs would look like a trace drawn through a desert planet, hoping to be collected. A truncated promise The plan, known as Mars Sample ReturnI had to send another ship to Mars, launch from there a rocket with the samples and return them to the Earth for analysis in laboratories. But the project began to crumble. An independent review raised the cost estimated until 11,000 million dollars and delayed the possible return of the samples until 2040. In May, the new US administration presented its first budget draft: proposes to cut 24 % of NASA’s financing and cancel Mars Sample Return for considering it an exorbitant cost program. The plan must still go through Congress, but marks a clear turn: the menions manned to deep space are prioritized, such as Artemisand the projects with great budget and scarce immediate return are frozen. With the current budget cut and without guarantees of continuity, NASA decided to reexamine its options. As explained by the former administrator Bill Nelsontwo more viable alternative routes were being evaluated: one that takes advantage of the “Sky Crane” type landing system used successfully in the Curiosity and Perseverance Rovers, and another that opens the door to new proposals from the private sector. Lockheed Martin’s letter Amid the budget uncertainty, one of the great space contractors in the United States has decided to move file. Lockheed Martin, with half a century of experience in missions to Mars, has presented NASA a proposal to execute the Mars Return mission with a radically different approach: for less than 3,000 million dollars and under a fixed price contract. The change is not less. Faced with the traditional model, full of budgetary risks and with multiple public actors involved, Lockheed promises a simpler architecture. Its proposal includes a more compact landing module, based on the ship Insight that already touched Martiano soil in 2018a lighter and lighter ascent vehicle – designed to be the first to take off from another planet – and a system of re -entry to the land derived from missions such as Genesis, Stardust and Osiris-Rex. It is a commitment goes beyond engineering. Being a “Firm-Fixed Price” contract, Lockheed Martin is responsible for absorb any possible extra cost. That is, if something is complicated, the invoice does not rise. According to the company itself, that model has already proven effective in other scientific missions of deep space, where they even managed to return part of the NASA not used budget. The message is clear: if NASA wants to save its most ambitious mission without spending, Lockheed Martin is ready to lead it. Bringing back about thirty small tubes could help us answer one of humanity’s great questions. Was Mars ever inhabited? Scientists do not seek fossils or complex structures. They look for subtle indications that can only be analyzed with the level of precision allowed by land laboratories. And for that, the samples that Perseverance has collected are not any rock. They have been selected one by one depending on their location, their age, their composition and their geological context. Are, In Nasa’s own wordsthe most likely material to contain a Martian “biofirm.” But the value of these samples goes beyond the biological. They can reveal how the wet marte of 3.5 billion years ago was, how its climate evolved, why it became an arid and inhospitable planet, and how the geological, atmospheric and chemical processes interacted for millennia. They will also tell us what resources could take advantage of future manned missions: where it is safer to land, what materials are usable, what areas have risks.

Thousands of Byd cars have become obsolete for their own promises. Solution: lower prices

by

A drop of 8% of the shares. Although forceful, The fall in the actions of Byd It should not be too worrying for your shareholders if we take into account that it is close to its historical maximums but it is a symptom of the difficulties that the Chinese market of the car can pass in the coming months. Byd has taken all the spotlights for being The company that is leadingat this time, the sale of plug -in vehicles but in the fall of their shares, companies such as Li Auto, Geely or Great Wall Motors that have fallen more than 4%have also accompanied. The reason: the sales of byd. Now with a 35% discount The Chinese state needs its citizens to buy. It’s not something, much less new. In fact, in Xataka We already told you almost a decade that the country tries to underpin domestic trade, a way to support national growth and limit dependence on exports abroad. That need is now sharpened with the electric car. The country has done everything possible to lead the transition to this technology and adopt a leading role in an industry that until now had resisted. That has led to lifting an absolutely brutal internal competition that will inevitably leave some companies along the way. In fact, Some Chinese experts They point out that companies such as Nio, Xpeng or Li Auto, who are monopolizing spotlights for their performance in the electric car or automated driving capabilities, run an important risk of going bankrupt. Any of them, as I had a long time ago Reuters He is losing thousands of dollars with each car sold. Therefore, an open pricing war would put them against the strings. A price war that in Byd is willing to play. At least to remove a stock they need to give out. And like the State, the plug -in company bigger in China You need the local market to continue working in full performance. In the middle of its expansion to third markets, the company has to continue leading local commerce but has pierced itself. In February the company launched the message that all its electric cars and plug -in hybrids They will ride, in the future, their “eye of God”the most advanced driving aid system they have in the market. The promise caught the industry by surprise and was a direct blow to brands like Tesla, who hope to take performance to their software. Byd, on the contrary, chooses to mount this standard in all its cars because, it is intuited, The income path expects it to be another. Then, some analysts understood that China’s price war that two years ago caused an earthquake in the industry had returned. However, it has been now when Byd has taken the next step after a few months of relative calm: discounts of up to 34% in their cars. Specifically has been the Byd Sealin plug -in hybrid format, which has received this juicy discount. But it is not the only car that can be bought at a much lower price. They point out in Bloomberg that up to 22 different models have received important discounts. He Byd Seagullthe cheapest electric car on the market and one of the best selling in China, can be found for 20% less and that already sold below 10,000 dollars in the local market. The movement, they say from the economic environment, aims to revive sales in a market in deceleration but, above all, take stock from above. Since it was announced that the new automated driving system would reach any new car launch, vehicles in the dealers have become obsolete and it is difficult to give them exit. In fact, also since Bloomberg They pointed out that even byd’s dealers in China are going through difficulties. Some of them have had to close and Data from the Chinese passenger car association They say that there are 3.5 million cars to sell and that the inventory average is 57 days per car sold, the highest figure since December 2023. Although discounts have been active since April and, in fact, They have been noticed this May It is now when the company has announced A new wave of discounts. That need to get its cars to the street is the same as Tesla had to get the market Tesla Model and Prejuniper And it is one of the most common problems facing cars companies when they have to announce new models. However, competition is so fierce and The industry advances so fast in China That an ad like the February can leave thousands and thousands of cars in a limbo waiting for a buyer. But, above all, it puts the rest of the industry that sees as Byd can continue to press its prices, even if only to take obsolete vehicles from above, while the rest of the companies seek a profitability that continues to resist.

Without absolutely no complex, Xiaomi has presented its Xring 01 chip. It promises to be a squeak for Apple and Qualcomm

by

Xiaomi Xring 01. This is the name that receives the first Xiaomi processor. One that, despite assuming an important milestone for China, has not been manufactured in the home country of the manufacturer. This beast is pure muscle, and behind it is the giant behind the Qualcomm and MediaTek chips: TSMC. The first devices with this chip are the new Xiaomi 15s Pro and the Xiaomi Tab 7 Ultra. We are going to tell you everything about this chip, and how are the devices that start this new stage for the company. This is how Xiaomi money earns – they attract you and catch you Xiaomi is seriously with its processor Has rained enough since Xiaomi implemented his C1 arises in the Xiaomi Mi 5C. It was an experiment to compete against the 600 range of Qualcomm, but it was in a simple anecdote, since the company did not launch its own chipset. Xring 01 is manufactured in the second generation TSCM nanometers process, which we find in processors such as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite. But it is not like at all: it is a chip with a unique architecture of ten nuclei. The main cluster is composed of two X925 nuclei to 3.9 GHz. It is followed by a four -core cluster A725 to 3.4 GHz, next to another with two of these nuclei at 1.9 GHz. To finish the low consumption tasks, there are two last 520 to 1.8 GHz nuclei. The GPU comes is the Immortalis G925, presented at the end of 2024 by ARM. Summarizing: 2 x 3.9GHZ Cortex-X925 4 x 3.4GHZ Cortex-A725 2 x 1.9GHZ Cortex-A725 2 x 1.8GHZ Cortex-A520. GPU ARM IMMORTIALIS G925 According to Xiaomi, the performance of this chip is higher than that of the Apple A18 Pro, Not only in gross terms, but also in thermal efficiency (at least mounted in the Xiaomi 15s Pro), one of the keys for sustained performance can be high. According to the data they have given, its chip exceeds 3,000,000 points in the test. Slightly above what Qualcomm elite usually achieves. Xiaomi 15s Pro The new high range of Xiaomi lands with the Xring 01 chip, a design practically identical to that of the Xiaomi 15 Pro, and a triple camera configuration. Its battery, at least in China, will be 6,100MAH with fast charge of 90W and 50W wireless. The screen is 6.73 inches, with Quad HD resolution (2K), AMOLED technology and a peak shine of 3,200 nits. His cameras, with Lenses signed by Leicaare 50 megapixels for the main sensor, another 50 for the ultra wide angle and … Guess (yes, 50 megapixels) for teleobjective. The price of the device in China? From 675.07 euros for the version with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal storage. At the moment, there is no news about his possible arrival in Spain. Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra Next to the Xiaomi 15S Pro, the company has presented the first tablet with its new star processor, Pad 7 Ultra. It is a dart that points directly to iPad Pro with M4 Chip Already the best Samsung tablets. It arrives with 14.2k panel of 14 inches, Amoled, and with a battery of no less than 12,000mAh that carries 120W. Equipa the same Xiaomi 15s Pro chip, Xiaomi Tab 7 Ultra 12/256 GB: 5,699 yuan, about 700 euros to change Xiaomi Tab 7 Ultra 12/512 GB: 5,999 yuan, about 735 euros to change. Xiaomi Tab 7 Ultra 16 GB/1 TB: 6,799 yuan, about 834 euros to change Xiaomi Watch S4 As a surprise and complement to his watch and his tablet, Xiaomi has also told us about the Xiaomi Watch S4 Xring, the first watch to equip THE NEW CHIP Xring T1 (not 01). It has its own 4G modem, and is designed to be used with ESIM cards. It is the first time that Xiaomi presents its own chip for smart watches, although it has not detailed its architecture as in the case of the smartphones processor. In development …

The mobile the AI ​​promises, but I only see repeated tricks. The real ace under the sleeve is called “agent” and comes on the way

by

How could it be otherwise, AI has also reached our mobilemainly from the hand of two protagonists: Apple Intelligence on one side, Google Gemini In the other. However, in a matter of one year, we have gone from almost no manufacturer has ia that many protagonists of the industry now fight in the classic race. Samsung was a pioneer in some Galaxy AI’s first steps in which it enveloped the generative AI with profits: transcription voice recordings, simultaneous translation and generations of wallpapers, to name a few. More than a year later, AI suites for smartphone have multiplied. And yet, There is still a long way to go. Although these tools are a first step, the true pending revolution is the agricultural AI, capable of performing complex tasks autonomously. However, its implementation faces significant obstacles that limit their current potential. The next step is the agents After witnessing the MWC 2025, it is clear that IA has not been the central theme, although the most mentioned. Obviously, he has had his time of prominence, with Rimbombantes “AI” on several fronts: Motorola, Honor, Realme and Samsung have presumed suites for Android. Magicai, Next AI, Hyperai … prolong the journey of Galaxy AI, which by the way, has also overcome herself with the arrival of the Galaxy S25. How is better about the first -time version? We basically talk about two more skills, which revolve around to personalization. A short but sure step, that in essence it does not be far from What I could test Last year. Of those mentioned, the one that surprised me the most was Magicaithe honor suite (integrated into magicos) and its ambitious Honor Alpha Plan. For a simple reason: already introduces the concept of AI agents. It is not only an AI that responds, but one that can understand a complex objective, plan steps and execute actions proactively through different applications and services to achieve it (for example, plan and reserve a complete trip, not only look for a flight). These agents or agriculture contrast with current functions, which are more reactive or limited to a single task or app. Google has taken some shy steps with Gemini’s extensions, But there is a problem to treat: Interoperability between services. For an agent to reserve a table or ask for food, he needs to interact fluently with any restaurant or cast app, which in turn requires standardized APIS or a deep level of integration that, for the moment, does not exist in a generalized way. On the other hand, these demonstrations have an important limitation: they control the screen and do not allow the user to continue using the mobile while the agent acts. Leave that feeling that the machine does it for us, but it blocks us the machine itself. In the demonstration, the Honor’s AI could interact with the phone and the real world: Given the information that the brightness of his screen was very high, the mobile responded with the instructions while reducing it. Similarly, he is able to book a table in a restaurant, running its respective app automatically. Surely that is the correct direction of the mobile AIalthough it is early to say it. Along the way, several actors must be taken by the hand: not in vain, asking for online food is not just Google or Honor, in this case. Now, not only these agents are useful, but also the rest of the tools that manufacturers are adding to their customization layers. Galaxy ai is not the only It is easy to highlight the aforementioned Samsung Galaxy AI: it was a pioneer to incorporate tools based on generative, yes, together with Google. ‘Roda to search’ opened the way and is now present in a large number of Android mobiles. That is why both the Pixel and Galaxy, and the rest of the manufacturers, now have some Common functions. That are also far from the aforementioned agents. The difference marks the customization layer. Out of what Google lends its partners, the interesting thing is to know the commitment of manufacturers such as Honor, Xiaomi, Realme who already tries to follow Galaxy AI’s track. This is what I found. I start with the most unknown in Europe, a techno that could perfectly rival the strongest in the sector. Your techno aidoes not move away from what is seen in other suites of tools: restoration of old photographs, transformation of portraits into animations, a call assistant. In short, nothing new under the sun. Xiaomi, who has announced the arrival of his Hyperai In the new ones Xiaomi 15also proposes a similar conjunction: Ai Writing generates messages for us, Ai Speech Turn the voice into text, it has a translator in real time, generation of images, draft objects (example photos) and even a function destined to the recording of film video. Is more extensive than in other manufacturersbecause Xiaomi already had this AI suite in China for a long time. As we see, photography is one of the most handled aspects by AI, along with productivity tools. There are others that try to differentiate themselves, among them the mythical Motorola, now under the amparo of Lenovo. Motorola’s functions resemble what is seen in Project Astra de Google (now integrated into Gemini Live) Moto AI It is the name that receives its AI system, and not only affects the phones: Motorola adds its own agent to the most advanced headphones of the catalog. I witnessed a demonstration that pointed ways, no matter how much had some timely delay, given by the Internet connection. This system includes a voice assistant in the purest Gemini style: capable of organizing the agenda, saving annotations in a personal diary and of course, improvements in the photographic processing to avoid blurred shots. For now, Motorola does not have many models compatible with motorcycle AI: only the Edge 50 Ultra and the Razr 50 and Razr 50 Ultra. Realme, and his NextaiThey look similar to the AI ​​application to the mobile … Read more

promises to manufacture up to half a billion dollars in AI products in the US

by

Nvidia has announced an ambitious plan to manufacture artificial intelligence infrastructure (AI) in the United States by value of up to 500,000 million dollars during the next four years. The initiative includes the production of Blackwell Chips in Phoenix (Arizona), as well as new plants dedicated to assembling their AI superorders in Texas. The company will also have facilities in Houston and Dallas. It provides that mass production in plants take off within between 12 and 15 months. Now, the announcement arrives at a delicate time, marked by the commercial war promoted by the administration of Donald Trump that, Despite a temporary exemptionmaintains the focus on semiconductors. Factories in the US, foreign experience. Although Nvidia has not detailed what models of Blackwell chips or AI systems will be involved, it has confirmed with who will carry out this industrial expansion. The company will support weight partners such as TSMC, Foxconn and Spil, three Taiwanese giants, in addition to the American Wistron. Behind this international collaboration is the model Fables that follows Nvidia. The company designs its chips, but does not have its own manufacturing plants. To do this, he trusts specialized manufacturers such as TSMC, a formula that also use other heavyweights of the industry such as AMD, Qualcomm or MediaTek. But after the announcement underlies an uncomfortable reality, especially for the aspirations of technological self -sufficiency pursued by the United States. Large companies in the sector, such as NVIDIA or Apple, continue to depend largely on the production capacity and foreign expertise for the production of most of its products. Taiwanese firms land in the US. Match the level of technological sophistication offered by Taiwan remains a distant goal. Giving up that capacity simply is not a viable option. The alternative, As already begun to glimpse with the Chips Law promoted by the Biden Administrationgoes to attract factories to the US territory. But the deployment has not been simple. TSMC has faced delays due to the difficulty of finding workers willing to assume their demanding work culture. According to Fortunethe 12 -hour days and weekend shifts did not fit the American model, and caused internal tensions and high staff rotation. The plants begin to take off. After months of delays, the first TSMC factory in Arizona has started producing chips for Apple and AMD using the N4 node (5 Nm). It is not its most advanced technology, but marks an important step. The second plant, scheduled for 2028, will work with nodes of 3 Nm and 2 Nm. In the case of Nvidia, the company has confirmed that the production of its Blackwell chips has already begun at the TSMC facilities in Arizona. What is not entirely clear is at what exact point the process is located or if the final packaging is being carried out in the United States or continues depending on shipments to Taiwan. As A ASML points outthere are several processes involved in chips production. Let’s see them in general: Deposition: It starts from an ultrapuro silicon wafer on which very thin layers of different materials are added. These layers form the base of the chip. Fotor resistant coating: The wafer is covered with a photosensitive material that reacts to light and allows to transfer the design of the circuit. Lithography: Ultraviolet light on the resist To draw the chip pattern. This phase defines the size of transistors. Recorded: The exposed areas of the resist To mark the pattern on the wafer. It can be done with gases (dry) or with chemicals (wet). Ionic implantation: The wafer with ions is bombarded to modify its conductivity and form the transistors. Packaging: Chips are cut, place on a substrate with connections and encapsulate with a cover that protects them and helps to dissipate heat. Waiting for advances. Analysts cited by Reuters point that “it is unlikely that Nvidia had transferred its production to the United States of not being for the pressure of the Trump administration.” They add, however, that the announced figure could be an exaggeration, and compare the maneuver as the one performed by Apple when it promised to invest half a billion dollars in the country.

This is the modern tank plane that promises to change the rules of the game in the air

by

When it comes to carrying prolonged air missions, tank aircraft are essential. Thanks to them, the fighters and other aircraft can remain in the air longer and complete their objectives without interruptions. With the arrival of the first Airbus A330 MRTThe Air and Space Army It is now better prepared for this type of scenarios. The European manufacturer has delivered the first of the three units planned this Friday at its Getafe facilities (Madrid), where the conversion line is located. As we can see, it is not a plane built from scratch for this, but an aircraft that, like the remaining two still pending, was part of the commercial fleet of Iberia. A little over three years ago, the Spanish airline and Iberia and the Ministry of Defense They signed an agreement To transfer three Airbus A330 destined to be converted into cistern airplanes for the Air and Space Army. The initial calendar pointed to a delivery in 2023, but the conversion process accumulated delays and now when we began to see the results. Of transporting passengers to repost fighters The agreement with Iberia was not limited to the assignment of airplanes: it also contemplated, among other things, the formation of pilots, crews and technical personnel, in addition to continued maintenance during a given period. The instruction focused on members of wing 45, based on Torrejón, which will be the fate of this first unit and the remaining two. María Ángeles Martí, responsible for transport, mission and replacement aircraft programs of Airbus Defense and Space, defined the aircraft as “THE BEST REPEACHING APPROVAL IN THE WORLD“For her part, the Secretary of State for Defense, Amparo Valcarce, stressed that her incorporation is” a contribution to the European Pillar of Defense. “ The model received by the Air and Space Army is equipped with a flight refueling system through hose and basket. To this are added pioneer advances such as the Fly-By-Wire control for the refueling pole and a high-resolution 2D/3D digital system that significantly improves the visibility of the operators during the maneuver. According to Airbusthe A330 MRTT has been designed to carry out replenishment missions in flight of E-3, F-16, F-15, C-17, F-35A, E-7A, A-10C, F-22, P-8A, B-1B, B-2A and B-52H models through the rigid pole system; and of the F-18 models, Tornado, Rafale, M2000, F-35b, Eurofighter TyphoonAV-8B and JAS 39 through hose and basket. The fleet of air arm aircraft of the Spanish Armed Forces is currently composed of the Eurofighter Typhoon and the McDonnell Douglas F-18 Hornet. It is expected that in the coming years New Eurofighter is incorporatedalthough it still is not clear if it will also end up betting on the acquisition of US fighters F-35. The A330 MRTT not only stands out as a cistern plane, with a range of up to 16,000 kilometers and capacity to transport 111 tons of fuel. You can also operate as a transport plane, with space for 300 soldiers or up to 45 tons of payload, and even as a medical evacuation platform equipped with stretchers and stations of intensive cities. It should be noted that Spain is not the only nation that operates the A330 MRTT. This replenishment is present in 15 countries.

Midni promises to be another success with Midgt and my citizen folder

by

The digital ID is Officer from today. The Government has approved by Royal Decree the use of the MIDNI app as an official accrediting document. The alternative to the physical document follows the wake of Midgt and confirms a promising tendency: that of a successful digitalization by Spanish public bodies. First, Midgt. In 2020 the General Directorate of Traffic launched In open test phase The application Midgt. Carrying the physical driving license was no longer strictly necessary -go on having situations in which to carry it is advisable-, and the app demonstrated to fulfill its objective perfectly, in addition to allowing various types of operations related to the DGT. Even helps us avoid scams When looking for second -hand cars. Then my citizen folder. In September 2022 A surprise would come even more striking. My citizen folder was the APP of the Government of Spain that allowed Bring us the bureaucracy to the mobile screen and make A lot of efforts especially comfortable. In fact, it was not only good when it was launched, but TOcaught. And now, Midni. The last to arrive in this series of official applications It is midniwhich is developed by the National Police and will allow to prove the identity of citizens in various efforts. Initially its validity will be limited, but little by little that accreditation will extend to many more areas. Midni does not replace DNI for the moment. As Explain The Interior Minister, this application will be available tomorrow prior registration with our electronic ID and digital certificate in force. It has the same legal validity and security guarantees as the physical ID, but this digital ID is a complement to the physical and does not replace it. Good for public administration. It will still be necessary to evaluate this new app of the public administration, but the design and development of the application follows the same line as the MIDGT, using temporary QR codes to verify the intention of performing an operation and the validity of the document. It is therefore logical to think that its operation is correct, and Show that good trajectory In this type of public administration projects. But there are many pending subjects. These are three fantastic examples that things can be done well. At least, for now there have been hardly any problems and many good reviews. However, public administration in Spain has a long disaster history and criticism When digitizing procedures: what should be simple is sometimes In a nightmare Or something simply impossible. The Digital Certificate Managementfor example, many problems usually pose despite being A development Already very mature and offering Important advantages If it works. Unequal reception. The MIDGT ​​app already has more than five million downloads on Google Play Store and an average score of 1.8/5, while my citizen folder has been downloaded more than one million times from that store and its average score is 3.7/5. Theoretically the midni tool will be even more popular given the relevance of this document. As in the case of Midgt, the proposal is especially striking For those who have always wanted to do without the physical portfolio: Now they have one more excuse to do it, no doubt.

Runway promises to overcome her with her latest Gen-4 model and challenges Sora de Openai

by

Than the generative modelss are achieving increasingly shocking images and videos is no surprise. A few years ago, producing something similar would have required a great manual effort. But it should not lose sight of a reality: although this technology advances at high speed, it still drags important limitations that hinder its use in certain professional environments. One of the great challenges for creators is to maintain visual coherence in the results. In ambitious projects, the generative AI usually has difficulty representing consistently to the same character or object in different planes or environments. Although changes may seem subtle, they are not always easy to manage. Of course, there are those who work to solve it. Runway Gen-4 arrives with coherence as a key piece Runway returns to the load. The Startup based in New York has presented Gen-4its new video generation model. The great novelty: a significant improvement in visual coherence, One of the weak points of models like OpenAi Sora. With this advance, the idea is that creators can build longer narratives without fighting with visual jumps between plans. Gen-3 Alpha, the previous model, already offered a notable level of detail and control. But with Gen-4, the proposal rises level. It is now possible to generate characters, locations and consistent objects throughout multiple scenes. Once the appearance, style and atmosphere are defined, the model maintains those elements unchanged, frame by frame, and in multiple scenes. Gen-4 allows you to use visual references combined with instructions to generate images and videos with styles, locations and topics coherent. In addition to this continuity, the model seeks to highlight for its ability to create dynamic videos, with realistic movements and a remarkable consistency in characters, objects and style. According to Runway, his understanding of the world is “the best of his class.” The best example is found in the video that accompanies this article, one of the many shared by Runway to show Gen-4 capabilities. If we refine our eyes, it is evident that these are synthetic scenes, both in the image and in movement. Even so, it represents a remarkable leap for audiovisual productions that are willing to accept this type of aesthetics. Gen-3 Alpha had already made its appearance in productions such as ‘House of David’, by Amazon Prime Video, and in Puma ads. Now, GEN-4 begins to deploy in Runway’s payment accounts, allowing to generate five-second and ten seconds clips In 720p resolution. Prices range from $ 15 to $ 95 per month, with an Enterprise option for companies, whose cost has not been revealed.
