RIKO MAHATO

For preparing the detector, researches have used an ordinary filter paper.
- Further, the filter paper is cut into small discs by using office punch and impregnated with chemical probes that react with ALP.
- The 'probes' used are antibodies that specifically bind to ALP.
- When ALP comes into contact with the probe, it turns the disc of white paper into coloured.
- On paper discs when the colour changes are then photographed by a device or smartphone camera and images are processed to obtain corresponding colour values.
- These values are then compared with standard data stored in the phone.
- It not only detects the presence of ALP but also the amount of it in milk.

SpiNNaker is the world's largest supercomputer that is designed to work in the same way as the human brain works.
Important points about SpiNNaker
- SpiNNaker is the Spiking Neural Network Architecture. In real-time, this machine can model several biological machines than any other device on the planet.
- It is capable of completing more than 200 million actions per second, with each other of its chips having 100 million transistors.
- No doubt this supercomputer is unique because it does not communicate by sending large amounts of information from point A to B through standard network like any other computer.

Hyperloop has a 'tube modular transport system' that will run free of friction. Or we can say it is a new form of ground transport. It is a new method with which people or objects can be moved rapidly and safely with efficiency anywhere in the world. It will also have minimal impact on the environment.
Hyperloop technology is the brainchild of Tesla founder Elon Musk, who showed its original design in a whitepaper in 2013. If this hyperloop system is successful in India, then probably the distance (1200 km) between Delhi and Mumbai can be covered in less than an hour. Do you know that it will cover 35 km in 5 minutes?
