The Orca: This Autonomous Submarine Will Fight the Wars of the Future

Posted by in categories: military, robotics/AI

The 50-ton Voyager was developed by Boeing’s PhantomWorks division, which is devoted to advanced new technologies, succeeding a series of smaller Echo Seeker and Echo Ranger UUVs. The 15.5-meter long Echo Voyager has a range of nearly 7500 miles. It has also deployed at sea up to three months in a test, and theoretically could last as long as six months.

Supposedly, Voyager also can dive as deep as 3350 meters—while few military submarines are (officially) certified for dives below 500 meters.


And it isn’t the only robot submarine in the works.

You can live to 150? Scientists create app that shows human lifespan could nearly double

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, mobile phones, robotics/AI

An iPhone app that estimates biological aging discovered that life expectancy has the capacity to be almost double the current norm.


GEYLANG, Singapore — Have you made any plans for the 22nd century yet? A new study finds you might want to think about it because it’s possible for humans to live to see their 150th birthday!

Scientists in Singapore have developed an iPhone app that accurately estimates biological aging. It discovered that life expectancy has the capacity to be almost double the current norm. The findings are based on blood samples from hundreds of thousands of people in the United States and United Kingdom.
