Olly- A robohub



HI guys! Technology has been developing at a very fast rate in recent years and has also helped in making our daily lives easier to a great extent. Today we have for you, another trending gadget-Olly. We have heard of many home controlling devices but Olly is different. It is a black donut that rises to greet you and swivels to face you when you address it. It responds not just with voice, but with mesmeric light patterns that help it to express itself. You can also say it is a robot with feelings. Why? ... We'll come to that later. It remembers your daily routine and actions and becomes like you to give you a better and a more personalized experience.








Now coming to what all the robot can do, is similar to other products like Amazon Echo or Amazon Tap (you can also see the review of Amazon Echo by simply tapping here and you will be redirected to that article). It can answer your various questions by looking up information for you. It can control all of your smart devices and internet connected products you might have in your home. 







So if doesn't do anything different from its rivals like amazon tap and google home, what makes it unique? This is the part where you remeber of olly being referred to as the 'robot with feelings'! This shows its proactiveness. Like it can can predict what you might want to do or listen at a certain time. For example, you like to listen to some soft music before going to bed, then the olly would automatically play your favourite choice of music at that time! Pretty convenient right?!







Overall, i think Olly is a great home product. But i also think that you'll like it more if you are the kind of person who likes to spend time more with himself. The original prototype of the robot featured a single eye design but testing suggested that most people won't like that design so this new donut design was taken. Olly is not on sale yet but it is expected to arrive in this summer with a price of $700-800. That's all for this gadget! Stay tuned for more tech and visit our previous articles in the tech section or another topic like maths or science that you might like! You can also watch the video given below to get a better view of the Olly ⇓

Animal and Plant Cells

 Cells Cells are the basic functional, biological and structural unit of life. The word cell is a Latin word meaning ‘small room’. Cells are also known as building blocks of life.  The branch of science that deals with the form, structure, and composition of a cell is known as Cytology. All organisms around us are made up of cells. Bacteria, ameba, paramecium, algae, fungi, plants and animals are made up of cells.  Cells together form tissues. And tissue together makes an organ. History Of Cell The cell was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. He assembled a simple microscope and observed a very thin slice of cork under his primitive microscope. The cork was obtained from the outer covering of a tree called bark. Robert Hooke observed many little-partitioned boxes or compartments in the cork slice. These boxes appeared like a honey-comb. He termed these boxes as the cell. He also noticed that one box was separated from another by a wa...

Important Mathematical Constants!

Important Mathematical Constants Mathematical constants are those numbers that are special and interesting because they come up in the various fields of mathematics like geometry, calculus etc. These mathematical constants are usually named after the person who discovered it and they are represented by a symbol that is usually picked up from the Greek alphabet. Mathematical constants are by definition very important. In this article we will take a look at certain mathematical constants that are more commonplace than others. 1.       Ï€ (pi) or Archimedes constant (~3.14159):   Ï€ is defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. This is probably the most popular mathematical constant. So Ï€ is the circumference of the circle whose diameter is 1 unit. You might have seen it popping up when calculating the area of a circle (Ï€r 2 ) or the circumference of a circle (2Ï€r). It has many uses throughout mathematics from calcula...

Autonomous Cars

The Problem with Self-Driving Cars Every year, so many people die in car accidents, most of them caused because of the driver's negligence. Exorbitant amounts of money are spent just to fund awareness campaigns and stop people from “drinking and driving”. All of this after the fact that the technology for self-driving cars is in the last stages of development. Why are self-driving cars not the next big thing yet? Companies like Tesla, Uber and heck, even Google are racing to be the next innovator of autonomous cars. “This is stupid… Obviously, the cars are expensive.” See that’s the point, these cars are not ridiculously expensive (at least not for people who own an iPhone X). “Well then we obviously don’t have the requisite technology” That is partially true but trust me, the cars are way closer technology-wise than you may think. The biggest problem with autonomous cars is (insert drumroll) “A Moral Dilemma”. Disappointed? Just hear me out. Imagine ...

SETS, RELATIONS & FUNCTIONS

SETS, RELATIONS & FUNCTIONS Sets are a fundamental part of mathematics and it’s knowledge is very important in present. It defines the concepts of relation and functions. These functions are also very essential for present day maths. SETS Sets are denoted by capital letters. They are similar to matrices whose elements are denoted by small letters. But in sets an element comes only at once. Sets are matrices which give a sense of belonging. This sense of belongingness is represented by  ∈   .We can write anything in a set like rivers of India, Wonders of the World .etc.  For an example let there be a set of positive single digit. Let the set be denoted as A Therefore, 8 ∈ A  Also we can write, 17 ∈ A Set can be represented by two types  ROSTER In roster form we write elements in curly brackets and separate them with comma.  If there be set of positive integers less than 10. Therefore the set will be {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}  SE...

Android Versions Named After Sweet

Have you ever thought why are Android versions always named after sweet names ?? Everytime a new Android version is launched its name is kept after a sweet name. Many people have researched about this topic and many have asked Google also. Have you ever tried to find out the core reason behind this? If not then you would find the answer here . First of all let us first see what Google says about this : In 2008 i.e. the year when Android was launched a reporter asked the reason for the same. At that time Google said “It’s kind of like an internal team thing, and we prefer to be a little bit — how should I say — a bit inscrutable in the matter, I’ll say,” said Randall Sarafa, a Google spokesman. “The obvious thing is that, yeah, the Android platform releases, they go by dessert names and by alphabetical order for the most part."

Levitation 2

LEVITATION II To be completely honest I was going to start this with a pun. I did think of one but it doesn’t float… I am sorry I just had to. Anyway, this is the second part to the article on super cool ways of making things levitate. Go check the first part out if you haven’t already. Actually, the first part may have become repulsive with all the magnets and stuff, but I promise this will be more attractive. Get it? No? I’ll stop now. I am just going to jump straight into it. 1.    Electrostatic Levitation I know you are probably sick and tired of magnets but they are the best way you know… This method is somewhat similar. You remember that cool science experiment you did with two straws attracting or repulsing each other based on their charge? So basically using the same principle we can make a charged object levitate. But before you try it, let me tell you it won’t be easy. Even impossible according to our Mr. Earnshaw. He even made a law (th...
