Starlink Mini: Elon Musk’s backpack-sized 100mbps internet kit launched
SpaceX has introduced a compact version of satellite internet antennas. Called Starlink Mini, the antenna is portable and can be packed in a backpack. The product is dubbed revolutionary due to being a mobile option for satellite internet customers.
Currently, a limited number of antennas are being offered for just $599 each in an early access release. Starlink Mini integrates the WiFi router right inside the dish and can deliver over 100mbps speed.
Elon Musk claims the product has the power to change the world.
3 bn microfossil puzzle can be solved with new AI deep learning model
A recent study published in the journal Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences introduced an advanced method for automatic microfossil detection and analysis. The research team consisted of members from the machine learning group at the University of Tromso (UiT) The Arctic University of Norway.
They have developed a pipeline for extracting fossil information from microscope slide images. They found that deep learning techniques outperform traditional image processing methods and that self-supervision can be effectively used for feature extraction.
