ONE to Equip Container Fleet with ‘Smart’ Technology

Madelyn Skylar 1 day ago

Ocean Network Express (ONE), the world’s seventh largest shipping line, has announced plans to equip its entire container fleet with “smart” technology.

ONE has teamed up with Sony Network Communications Europe to develop and integrate the technology.

The smart container solution will help to give ONE greater insight into their container fleet by boosting visibility into container movements. Customers will also be able to access live updates throughout a shipment’s journey.

“As one of the largest container carriers in the world, this collaboration brings together ONE’s extensive cargo shipping experience with Sony’s expertise in the development and innovation of world-class sensing and connectivity technologies,” ONE said in a statement.

“This is a future where we have access to the insights we need to offer our customers a higher quality of service to forge a new standard of process excellence,” said Hiroki Tsujii, Managing Director, Product & Network at Ocean Network

New technology gives hope to stroke patients with paralysis

CNN
 — 

For nearly a decade, Heather Rendulic hasn’t been able to use her left hand to feed herself or pick up something as light as a soup can – but that changed when she became part of a clinical trial that could radically improve the lives of people who’ve been paralyzed after a stroke.

The results of that trial were published Monday in the journal Nature Medicine.

Rendulic has a rare brain disease called cavernous angioma, a blood vessel abnormality that can cause stroke. She had series of them – five total – over a period of 11 months when she was just 22 years old that left her paralyzed on her left side.

“The most challenging part of my condition is living one-handed in a two-handed world,” the Pittsburgh resident said.

A stroke cuts off the blood supply to the brain, and cells start to die within

Few know this, but I have 3,000 employees working for me at home. They don’t punch a clock, but they toil day and night. We never speak, but we meet for a few moments every few days. I supply them with as much food as they can eat, and in return, they furnish an endless supply of black gold.

Composting is something most people assume they can’t or won’t do. And I get it. I was once a non-composter too. I’ve heard about the potential problems: The smells, the flies, the rats, it’s a hassle, no space, an unspoken fear of the unknown. I, too, have battled the fruit fly.

Watching out for whales: New technology helps prevent deadly collisions with ships

Madelyn Skylar 1 week ago

As federal officials investigate an alarming spike in whale deaths, many believed to be caused by ship strikes, scientists are hoping new programs on both coasts will keep more whales alive.

On the West Coast, the new system is called Whale Safe. It uses data from its specialized high-tech buoys, satellites and entries on a whale-watching app to predict the presence of whales in shipping lanes — warning the companies in near-real time so they can voluntarily slow down to 10 knots, a speed set by a federal agency shown to significantly reduce the risk of fatal collisions.

CBS News went off the coast of Santa Barbara, California, to learn more about the program for the “CBS Mornings” series “Protecting the Planet,” which explores environmental challenges and solutions in a changing climate.

The Santa Barbara Channel is a prime feeding ground for these massive and often endangered sea creatures.

HEL in Abu Dhabi: US defense giants Lockheed, Raytheon push laser tech at Middle East arms show

IDEX 2023 — Two major American defense firms, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Technologies, have put high energy laser (HEL) technology among their center stage offerings at the international arms expo IDEX 2023 in Abu Dhabi, hoping to catch the eye of potential foreign partners or buyers.

Lockheed’s set up uses three large screens to demonstrate simulations of what they believe their HEL tech will be able to do, while Raytheon has a prototype HEL system itself on display.

Interest in high-energy lasers has risen with the proliferation of asymmetric airborne threats like rockets, mortars and, increasingly, relatively cheap suicide drones. Shooting those threats down with traditional weapons is difficult, expensive, or both. Proponents hope lasers, like the Israeli-developed Iron Beam, can take on the task effectively and at a
