Rogue jumbos radio collared for tracking

electronic gadgets for sale So i found this short article on the net and i heard that just posting it like a whole piece is not a good thing, I got consent from the original author and read up the way to curate posts, so that is it…….i thought this was interesting because it highlights some of the highs and lows that I encountered when i was working inside the business.

COIMBATORE: Each blue dot on the screen recorded on the satellite-imposed image of the terrain on an hourly basis indicates the presence of the 25-year-old Makhna elephant presently roaming the Siruvani range in Mannarkkad forest division.

The GPS enabled radio collar fitted on the animal has been timed to send out signals every hour since the animal has a reputation of being a habitual crop raider and troublemaker. Additional details including longitude, latitude, altitude, temperature and the speed of movement of the animal will also be available to the officials. Experts from World Wildlife Fund (WWF) India in coordination with forest department officials have been engaged in tagging elephants to closely observe their behavioural patterns.

“So far, we have radio collared three elephants, two tuskers and the Makhna elephant to observe their movement patterns. These elephants were found regularly entering human habitation and so were tagged both for research and also for minimising human-animal conflict situations,” said N Mohanraj, policy advisor and wild life expert from WWF India.

The collar fitted with the signal transmitter beams the signals to the satellite which is received and then beamed back to the ground stations. These signals will be decoded and simplified to be broadcast to dedicated web servers. These web servers upload the information onto the web portal from If you have any inquiries about the place and how to use television, you can make contact with us at our own site. where it could be accessed using specific username and password.

“The collar has GPS transmitter that will emit these signals. Generally we decide on the length of the strap depending on the age of the animal since we have to ensure that the animal does not feel any discomfort if its neck size increases with age. However, if the collar is too loose then it might even fall off the animal,” Mohanraj added

According to sources, discussions are on to radio collar six more elephants in the southern states, from the Nilgiri Biospehere in the coming months. It is also learnt that one or more of these animals could be matriarch female elephants and not just crop raiders so that the researchers would be able to understand the behaviour and movement pattern of an entire elephant herd.

The radio collar battery is expected to last for about two years and experts claimed that battery life could be extended by increasing the time interval of signal transmission. Generally, only elephants that are known to create damage to human life and property are tagged at close intervals as the main objective of tagging them is to send warning alerts.

But the GPS radio collaring exercise had gone sour in Coimbatore region after a male tusker that was tranquilised and tagged with the collar along with the female elephant died due to alleged human error during the operation resulting in a huge uproar from environmental activists.

The radio collaring project was temporarily shelved in the region after the incident in Tamil Nadu region. A female elephant was also radio collared here in Boluvampatty forest range in 2011, but the collar went missing from the animal within 10 months putting the forest department officials in a tight spot. Each GPS enabled radio collar is expected to cost more than RS 2.5 lakh.

“It is a trial and error method but all precautions are being taken while carrying out the process especially in selecting the terrain and also the dose of sedatives to be administered,” said Dr Jacob V Cheeran, a wild life expert.

According to experts, big animals like elephants should never be darted with tranquilizer in terrain which is uneven with steep slopes and gorges or with water bodies in the vicinity.

The animal may panic when hit with the dart and could suffer a fatal fall as the sedatives begin to work. The radio collared tusker here in Coimbatore was found dead in such a gorge a couple of hours after the tagging exercise.

Using Pee to charge your devices, can it be achievable

For a long time people have been telling me that relations, love and happiness are the important things in life…Nowadays I realise that I can take or leave all that as long as We have this technological advancement in the world.

Scientists functioning at the University West of England (UWE) in Bristol, United kingdom, have found out a way to recharge a cell phone with Human pee.

The company have been capable of charge a Samsung smart phone by putting the liquid through a surge of microbial fuel cells. Using this process, enough energy may be generated to send text messages, browse the Internet and also make a short telephone call.

According to the scientists in charge, the next stage is to totally recharge the phone with urine…Seemingly washing their hands directly afterwards.

Dr. Ioannis Ieropoulos has worked for a long time with microbial fuel cells; he’s considered a guru in harnessing energy from extraordinary options. The possibe purposes of his work are very attractive from an environmental standpoint.

Dr. Ieropoulos said, “We are very excited as this is a world first, no-one has harnessed energy from pee to try this so it truly is an interesting discovery. Using the final waste product as the supply of power to provide electricity is nearly as eco as it gets.” Eco-friendly tech is, seemingly, the good doctor’s main area of interest.

The microbial cells work as a energy converter, they turn the organic substance straight into electricity, via the metabolism of live microorganisms. The electrical power is the by-product of a microorganism’s natural life cycle, meaning that as they ‘eat’ the urine, they produce energy the energy that If you have any type of concerns pertaining to where and how you can utilize Motorola GP300 walkie talkie Earpiece, you can call us at the website. Motorola GP300 radio Earpiece powers the phone. Now that is what we call ‘pee as you go’.

Bathroom humour aside, the team have engineered a world first, as nothing as large as a phone battery has ever been charged using this method before.

You’ll notice, at present, no plans to promote this technology on a sizable scale, but perhaps someday we could be signing a ‘P’ mobile contract, the trick, as they say, will be pissistance.

PS – I’m apologetic about this one. The work and its implications are instead astounding. All credit to the UWE team. On the other hand, I continuously wanted to do one of those ‘And Finally’ type stories and now I conclusively get to. Please forgive me, one and all.

Ear We Go! Ps3 headsets for complete control

This piece is posted by the strict permission of headphone.co.uk, which is the original website. please get agreement from that website before reposting this piece of If you liked this report and you would like to get much more data concerning CP040 2 way radio Earpiece kindly stop by our own web-page. writing.

Let�s have a show of hands: Who doesn�t love the PS3?

Hm. Only that one fat kid at the back declined (and he appears to be licking pepperoni from his own armpit). So, basically, we all love PS3.

PS3 offers great graphics, immersive gameplay and a range of enthralling, cinematic adventures that are often so real its often scary. So what can you do to improve this (already pretty great) experience?

Get a headset, of course!

With a headset, not only can you channel the sound through your speaker (meaning that you don�t have to disturb everyone else around you AND you can keep playing �after hours�) you can also communicate verbally with other players spread across this big blue marble we call planet Earth. Headsets have become pretty standard equipment for serious gamers, however, there are a lot of headsets and they aren�t all good.

Some headsets offer really poor sound quality, with quiet reproduction with harder scratches than you�d expect from a polar bear�s arse, some simply drop out, making other gamers mistakenly believe that you have abruptly died. There are possibly as many crappy headsets out there as good ones, so we cobbled together this modest little site, in order to guide you along the right path.

We test the headsets rigorously by playing games constantly (its a tough job…) and we keep up to date on all the latest news, releases and �sciencey stuff� so you don�t have to. Furthermore, we aren�t some great big corporate mega-site, we�re real people, just like you, which means that we don�t have any obligation towards anybody but you.

We aim to offer you the best value for money, the best products and the strongest, clearest idea of what you should be looking for when seeking a PS3 headset. Yeah, we know, with drive and ambition like that we could have split atoms and cured diseases, but no, we�re more interested in playing PS3 and bitching about crap headsets. It�s just easier.

So there you go, that�s our mission statement.

We�re nuts about the PS3 and, since you�re on this site we figure you are too. We want to make sure your PS3 experience is as good as it can possibly be. Sound and communication are a vital part of that experience. Headsets are massively important bits of kit for any gamer, so it really pays to know what you�re looking for.
