Last week, I worked on schema refresh in 11g database from one box to another box using data pump. There are two methods to achieve this. We will see them in this article.

Researchers from the University of Minnesotas Center for Distributed Robotics, makes the robotsz able to roll around on the ground with relative ease, then prop itself up to take flight like any other robotic helicopter. Those thinking about trying their hand at a DIY version may want to think twice, it is not simple as…

The members of Poitiers basket 86 testify that amusement park rides improved the teams spatial orientation and helped them defeat top ranked Chalon. It had be different if the robots were teaching them perfect free throw or helping them walk, but PB86 is known for its innovative advertising, it seems like quirky example. Dont forget…

How can we find the corrupted object list?One of my database, blocks are corrupted few months ago.At that time i have written a dynamic script for each block id & find the corrupted block list.

The 3,000 movies from Universal, Sony and Warner Bros were added to YouTube yesterday. The same library is also pushed to Googles newly announced Movies service. Anything purchased or rented through Google Movies will be available to consume through YouTube and vice-versa.

The University of Pennsylvanias GRASP Lab has already taught its autonomous quadrocopters to move in packs, fly through hoops, and build things on their own, and its now they released the video of them. The quadrocopters are now able to take cues from a leader and fly in formation. They can even continue with the…

The 40-inch giant based on Samsung LED HDTV and powered by Core i5 Processor with Windows 7 makes you really feel rich. It got built in 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connections to connect the digital canvas to iOS app, it is the one you will purchase static and motion art and even manipulate display using virtual touchpad.…

We have got some dire news: The simply miniature Roombas as they may appear, but 15 so called Khepera bots capable of spelling out GRITS (for Georgia Robotics Intelligent Systems) to demonstrate grad student Edward MacDonalds Masters thesis for the department. The diminutive robots are not told where to go in letters, they determine their…

The latest project from fighting robot builder / MIT Engineering student Charles Guan, brought the world this one last summer. What the DIY vehicle lacks in the ominous ever-forward creep of its predecessor, it makes up in actual vehicular ride ability, marking the return of Guans HFF propeller. The whole thing is topped off by…

The Researchers from Tufts University have built a robot that is able to mimic the way a caterpillar balls itself up to bounce away from predators. As you see the videos we had given, while the robot is quite bigger than the actual bug, is does indeed to do a good caterpillar intimation. The researchers…

When Google unveiled its WebM open source media format and declared it to be the one codec to rule all others, there were those who decried its usefulness and felt that H.264 should inherit the earth. WebMs power converted some of those, and rally to more to the VP8 / Vorbis cause, 17 companies have…

Carnegie Mellon Robotics Club has birthed vibration, a Robotic Vibraphone. Vibratrons Ardunio Mega controls 30 solenoid gates that drop steel balls onto the vibration keys, producing a note; an Archimedes screw recycles the bearings, turning them once more into sweet, sweet music. We should also note the vibration doesnt put decent salt-of-the-earth vibraphonists out of…

According to Wrap, Googles YouTube has finally locked up all the studio deals to get itself fully into the online movie rental game.

The Texas-based Center for Robot-Assisted Search and Rescue (CRASAR) has sent its SARbot to Rikuzentakata. This can shoot video as it swims under houses and other crippled structures, but it also sports a limb grasping mechanism, designed to retrieve drowning victims and assist in other search and rescue operations. Dont forget to check the video…

In this article we will see how to completely rename an Oracle database and the four different methods to do it.

Google may have stashed the locations of every Wi-Fi access points and convenience store goodie the world over, the things that even 360 degree cameras, massive algorithms and self-driving cars cant do; the things like mapping out your neighbourhood haunts, thats why Google needs you. This week, Google unleashed the Google Map Maker on the…

HECTOR or Hexapod cognitive autonomously operating robot, was designed to help that how exactly the animals manage to move so gracefully. It is developed by Germanys Bielefeld University folks. HECTOR sports 6 legs, with 18-joints in total, that protrude from an exoskeleton made of carbon fibre reinforced plastic. Its legs are given a life-like range…
