Will You Inject Yourself with an Ancient Bacteria for Longer Life ? - Science Feed

Hii, This is Science Feed.

In 2009, 3.5 million years old bacteria was found in the permafrost region on Mammoth Mountain in Siberia's Yakutsk Region. The bacteria was named 'Bacillus F' which was found by the Russian Scientist named Anatoli Brouchkov, head of the Geocryology Department at Moscow State University.
After numbers of experiments, it was found that those mice which were injected with these bacterias have far better strength and immune system than normal mice. Each time the experiment was done, the results were the same.

Curiously, One day Dr. Brouchkov injected himself with these 3.5 million old bacteria without knowing what would happen to his body. The problem was that scientists didn't know how the bacteria increase life span in mice. And about humans, not even a penny !!! He became the first guinea pig for the experiment

In a statement, Dr. Brouchkov said that since the day he injected himself with, he felt more energetic and healthier. He even said that he didn't get sick for two years.
'After successful experiments on mice and fruit flies, I thought it would be interesting to try the inactivated bacterial culture.'

According to studies, Bacillus F uses an unknown mechanism that made it able to survive in the worst conditions in the Siberian range. Dr. Brouchkov strongly believes that this bacteria may become the best contender for the prolonged lives of humans.

After this incident, another event occurs. On 22 July 2017,  a German actress also injected herself after spending 37,000 pounds. The samples of bacterias were given by Anatoli Brouchkov. In order to not lose the license, doctors rejected to inject the samples in her bloodstreams. She injected herself under the support of a local doctor in case of a medical emergency.

There is a lot of researches going on controlling the aging of the organism. But, we don't know how the future will look like.

How does a NPU, Neural Processing Unit, works? - Science Feed

A NPU (Neural Processing Unit), also knows as AI accelerator, is a computing unit specially designed for the running artificial intelligence and machine learning models efficiently and effectively on a single motherboard with other computing units.  There has been significant rise in the use of NPUs in personal devices like smartphones, laptops, PCs etc. to do personalized recommendations and offline AI processing.  NPUs are capable of parallel processing, low precision arithmetic, hardware acceleration.  These have silicon architecture to kind of simulate the human brain working like human where instruction set of AI efficiently ran. NPUs are not for computing traditional problems as it lacks important physical capabilities. Because of these, AI systems are able to learn faster without wasting time and energy. The parallel computation feature give wings to matrix operations ease, activation functions of neural networks, dot product.  NPUs have got dedicated compute ...

What is Dark Energy? - Science Feed

There are different forms of energy. But, there has been speculation of an hidden form of energy that has been kind of hiding from us which constitutes a large part of our universe.  The universe has been found to be expanding faster than the speed of light. The traditional form of energy that we have found has been to be not able to provide that much of push. So, there must be something. This type of energy is called Dark Energy. Dark Energy is that form of energy that is not understood by us but it is fundamental in nature and drives the process of the universe. In Theory of General Relativity, there is concept of cosmological constant which says there is a negative of gravitation or empty space that is all over the interstellar space.  The researchers of DES and others have found that the universe is expanding not alone of known form of energy but some mysterious form of it. This is also related to Big Bang. Dark energy is told to be constituent of 68 to 70% of total univer...

How are LIDARs changing field of Robotics - Science Feed

In the field of robotics, there is crucial role of sensors out of which the LIDARs (Light Detection and Ranging Sensors) are very important.  LIDAR sensors send the light and detects back the reflected light from any object to estimate how much far away the object is based on the calculations. Laser is used as primary light source as it can bounce back on most surfaces. These are used to make maps of the area where the robot will move around for navigation.  There are different kinds of LIDAR sensors like 1D LIDARs, 2D LIDARs, 3D LIDARs and even 4D LIDARs.  1D LIDARs are most basic type of it because these emit laser in one direction at a time and a point for point cloud is created. A point cloud is a group of large number of points that create map of the area. 1D LIDAR then moves in other direction and make different point after that.  2D LIDARs are the better version of 1D LIDARs as if you are rotating the 1D LIDAR in continuous rotation to project it in a circular...
