How To Live Someone Else's Life Virtual Helmet

Artist Farid Mark conceived an incredibly ambitious project that once might not even meet the imagination of the common man. Socio-artistic project Seeing will be designed to test the stability of the self-identity of the individual.

Within 28 days Farid Mark will not take off his helmet virtual reality and live someone else's life completely. All those who support his Kick starter fundraising campaign for the launch of the project will be able to direct the experimenter. Mark will eat and drink what they eat and drink more, walk-in shower and a toilet at the same time.

The artist even has to sleep in the helmet. He will not be able to communicate and even to hear. The author of the project will continuously monitor a group of physicians. The main purpose of this experiment was the effect of self-determination of the individual and personal identification.

Among these 550 cases, there was also her mistress Dr. Claire gest, in which Daisy found breast cancer. Executive Director of Medical Detection Dogs Claire gest forever grateful for Daisy the dog has done for her and hundreds of others.

Solar Roadways – Solar Panels under Highway

Perhaps in the future historians will characterize our era as smart. Because now every now and then the prefix smart get even those things that used to not be suspected of any intellectual component. For example, in recent years more and more talk about smart road.

The world's first intelligent road, Smart Highway, appeared recently in the Netherlands. It is about 500 meters sample plots highway, which provides drivers while driving interactive features. For example, using this road you can find out about the weather conditions and the expected traffic during road accidents, traffic jams and other troubles.

And here in the United States, the word "smart" in conjunction with "expensive" mean something completely different. Solar Roadways project involves the conversion of highways and city streets, even in the huge "green" power.

American engineer Bruce Scott, inventor of Solar Roadways, offers to cover the expensive solar panels that will produce "green" energy for the needs of these very freeways and nearby buildings.

Energy generated from the smart way, will allow covering the roadway and sidewalks in the dark, to charge electric cars at special charging stations, and in the future, and on the go. Excess electricity can be obtained as will give to the city mains. Solar Roadways project involves the conversion of all of America into a huge power plant, which will replace many of the traditional sources of energy and improve the ecological situation in the country and the world due to the global reduction of the use of combustible materials.

Interestingly, the control center of all this complex system will be directly in solar panels. Each of them will be equipped with a small processor, and together they create a huge cloud DATA-center, the most powerful computer in charge of the distribution of energy giant system Solar Roadways.
