As I understand it, for the last 5 years, the Madrid government refused to discuss any change to their constitution law, forcing the Catalonian government into organising their referendum outside the Spanish constitution. The EP will soon have to discuss the issue.

If hydrogen fuel cell is allowed to be mounted to an e-bike, why then not replacing it with a simple internal combustion engine burning something else easier to source (eg achohol)?

I don't know where you've got the 3 hrs from. it only takes a couple of minutes to refill at the depot.

it's so funny! Thank you Peter.

that peeling is done with a holmium laser, a YAG laser that penetrates only 0.4mm of water or tissue. A skillful surgeon can do that without an robotic arm. http://www.lumenis.com/Solutions/Surgical/Technology/Holmium-Lasers

Looking at your chart, I think I'd feel myself richer, more successful if I go back to France.

That chart shows that most of the world trade has zero import duty or very low import duty. There will likely be a deal on goods with the EU27, but the real issue is on services, non-tariff barriers to our companies selling services to the EU27.

gearless motors tend to have 245mm diameter, 250W geared motors 120mm.

quote from robotic oncology website: Robotic surgery is really a remote control operation, where the surgeon sits at a real distance from the patient and as he does the surgery, the entire movements of the surgeon are translated through the sensitive fibers of the machine with certain precision...

I am not worried for the banking boys in London. They'll always find rich people to work for (and rich people will find them). If anything, the prediction of 75,000 job losses are way too pessimistic.

The Pound rebounded a little today on the news that Michel Barnier says to accelerate the talks.

predictions about when driverless cars arrive have the habit of being put back. To make them a reality, the cars need to be certified to SAE 4 or ideally, SAE 5. If you look at predictions in 2015, production cars with SAE4 is predicted to arrive in 2019. Then in 2016, predictions are revised to...

Back in the 90s, I used Cadstar auto router software for PCB layout. Cadstar is not very different to your example of surgery but it is not robotic. A fair degree of human input is still required to finish the work, same way one uses an in car satnav. What would be a surgeon robot is the one...

The Japanese teams are quite good at exoskeletal bionic add-ons but they are not robots which are machines that can recognize shapes and objects around them, work out (albeit limited) goals for themselves and devise ways to achieve them. They need to be able to learn a bit by themselves.

I've seen the clip with the robot that 3D printed the wall. No match for a human bricklayer. Same thing with the robot that picked grapes from the vines. There are always low hanging fruits in any repetitive tasks, especially in agriculture but advances in robotics and artificial intelligence...

there are factors like internal resistance that have an effect on the range. To make an objective comparison, you need to charge your old 10.4AH battery to full, measure its voltage, run it down like you did with the 13.5AH battery, record the mileage and measure its voltage again.

only for demonstration. Until you can have robots capable of conversing with humans, the robots thing is still oversold.

some American professor said something like that back in the 60s when I was still at uni. Hopelessly optimistic. We currently employ about 18-20 million computer programmers worldwide. The numbers will continue to increase, but even so, the task is huge. In our lifetime, it is reasonable to...
