(Dagbladet): During a month-long expedition across the Atlantic – via Ascension Island and Brazil – should the 25 year old Christine Spiten get the opportunity to test the prototype of an underwater drone for the consumer market.
– It is a tool that allows you to see underwater. Then you can, for example, standing on the shore and get pictures and video of the drone finds in the deep ocean. So far drone can go down to 100 meters, and it is deeper than divers can, says Spiten.
She is project engineer, co-founder and co-owner of BluEye Robotics AS, which develops underwater drones for the consumer.
Spiten is one of 14 women as if a button week set sail from Dakar in Senegal. The journey goes across the Atlantic. All aboard the 72-foot long sailboat Sea Dragon have their special fields and projects. She says that marine biologists, engineers, physicians and sailors are among those who will participate in the expedition, and that everyone has the same overall objective.
– The goal is to examine the relationship between marine litter and health. We have such a surface trawl laggards boat when we are out at sea, and with it we gather up everything that gets in our way. Some types of plastic – such as you find in a regular soda bottle – it takes up to 450 years to break down, says Spiten.
She is excited to learn of the other disciplines that will participate in the expedition, but dread too little to see what amounts plastic drifting at sea. Along the way they go ashore on Ascension Island, the world’s third most distant island, where she hopes to be able to update the blog she runs – Devocean – with photos and video from undervannsdronen.
Nina Jensen, Secretary General of WWF, seems drone has an interesting potential.
– It can provide valuable visual material and film footage of what goes on under the surface. We must do something about all human activities that put pressure on the sea, such as oil exploration, mining, fishing, littering and emissions, says Jensen.
Spiten and Jensen thinks it is important to educate people about the situation of the world’s oceans today. Spiten highlights biodiversity as an example of why: there are more species in the ocean than in the rainforest, but much of this is at risk if nothing is done to reduce emissions and littering.
– Only 15 percent of the trash in the sea due to land, while 15 percent drifting at sea. 70 percent, we can not see because it has ended up at the bottom of the sea. An underwater drone will make both researchers and consumers can see how the sea affected. It should be noted that this is just one of the uses for drone. It gives us eyes under water, and then it’s just curiosity that sets limits, says Spiten.
Jensen is also concerned about the situation, but emphasizes that the oceans biggest problems are not littering:
– Life in the sea has been halved in just over 40 years. A considerable effort must be made to do something about this, but the main threat is climate change and ocean acidification. This is not something a drone can dissolve in.
She says that she did not join the expedition to get a chance to put the blame on anyone, but to get an opportunity to educate.
– I have not agreed to join this expedition because I’m going to walk around with a finger and tell people what they do wrong. But I think it is important to make people aware of the situation and that they have a choice. Additionally, this can help to take up the dialogue with the authorities, who can put into action and make it easier for consumers to identify and steer clear of products.
Jensen says drones and other technology is essential to combat climate change and pollution, but stressed that one can not expect that technology will be the solution.
– Not any technology can be the solution to all problems. We can not wait, for we must do what it takes to here and now. One sees new proposals for solutions every day, but it’s very easy for politicians to push technology ahead of him rather than to do what one must do, says Jensen. She emphasizes that she is in favor of the new technology, but that one should not believe that it can solve all problems.
Undervannsdronen be tested in the various conditions expedition offers, and the next prototype comes on the market in the autumn of 2016. The lessons learned from this expedition will be used in the development of the forthcoming prototype.
The drone to be used at this time measures about 50 x 50 cm, but the next prototype will be a third of this. In addition, the drone developers to make it cheaper and more stable, but also wireless. Such a drone could go even deeper than the current drone.
Along with four others have Spiten worked with the idea to undervannsdronen since autumn 2014, but it was not until summer 2015 that the company BluEye Robotics AS was established.
The EV manufacturer Tesla has taken a major step towards autopilot for cars this month. New Tesla Model S can automatically change file, regulating speed and braking.
While Driving characteristics, previously limited to cars teknologiganter which Google has tested out, came on the road with the latest Tesla Version 7.0 software earlier this month.
The property was added to thousands of such cars that already were on the road by an upgrade of the software in the car. In summer it was already sold 80,000 such sedans worldwide.
The Norwegian Automobile Federation (NAF) has tested function (see video above). Andreas Handeland, the driver in the video, working with consumer tests in NAF, and is an experienced biltester.

– This is the future. Whether we like it or not. There are some exciting now is that Tesla gives this opportunity to all who own newer models. One need not go back a yard or equivalent to graduate. The software is downloaded automatically and you can choose whether you want to take it into use, communication manager at NAF, Inger Elisabeth Sagedal, told ABC News.
In recent years, several upgrades for cars pointed in the direction of “self drive ». Adaptive cruisecontroll, lane assist and emergency braking system are examples of electronic aids which in recent years has been involved in assisting the driver.
– Tesla is innovative, and here they are at the forefront of something we know will: Self-propelled cars . This can be important for road safety, and an important step towards “Vision Zero”. It is Norway’s vision for zero serious injuries and fatalities. When these cars come fully will be able to save lives, says Sagedal.
– Many other automakers are working on the same type of technology, but Tesla is completely in front.
Autopilot system in new Tesla activated by nibbling on a lever behind the wheel. Then gases, brakes and steer the car on your own. This is a preliminary version, and NAF emphasizes in its press release: “One feels quite so fast that the car is far from intelligent, and the system can not currently replace the alert driver.”

Version 7.0 of the software was launched at the weekend and a number of Norwegian registered Tesla now has an “autopilot” available in the car’s menu.
– The challenge in Norway’s roads ours. Self-propelled vehicles are not yet dependent on good roads with distinct stripes. It is nearly all roads have it in Norway now. Something else interesting is the legal responsibility. The beta version is no doubt that the driver still are responsible, also using self-driving function, says Sagedal.
“No matter how good and effective technology to work are you leading responsible. It also applies if the autopilot technology fail and an accident occurs. Vienna con- ventions from 1968 states that the driver is responsible for the car anyway, and it applies even if current technologies were not relevant at the time.
Road Traffic Act §3 also requires diligence in traffic. It reads as follows: Everyone shall show consideration and be alert and cautious so as to prevent damage or risk and so that other traffic is not unduly obstructed or disturbed. Wayfarers must also show respect to those who are living or staying at the road, “writes NAF.
– In this early stage, we want to be extremely careful and asks drivers keep their hands on the wheel just in case, said Tesla’s founder and chief, Elon Musk, at the launch of the new feature earlier this month.
– In the longer term, people will not need to have your hands on the wheel, and eventually there will be neither steering wheel or pedals .

The autopilot enables Model S control within a file, change file and adjust speed with “traffic awareness” cruise control.
The car can also scan for free parking, alert drivers when it finds one, and since parallel park on command.
A year ago began the US automaker to equip Model S with radar, cameras, ultrasonic sensors and other hardware to gradually inntrodusere even drive properties.
But the new software has its limitations. It may still not recognize traffic lights, for example.
At the company’s website writes Tesla that “cars that really runs all by itself is still a few years away.”

The neighbor’s drone is nearly to drive you nuts.
Now the American R & development organization Battelle developed a tool that may be of help.
“DroneDefender” is a portable handguns designed to uskaddeliggjøre airborne drones of suspicious or threatening nature.
– DroneDefender can protect us from those who had want to hurt us, says Dan Stamm, a senior project manager, in a press release.
From distances up to 400 meters can 5 kg heavy weapon, with an unexpected exhaust , defuse drones or other flying objects. The weapon uses radio signals to “jam” the drone – before it can be used against military or civilian targets.
Drone Kill guy override the drone own instruments and forcing a controlled landing without the risk of the drone is to overthrow or detonate in sensitive areas.
It is the increasing commercial use of drones that arouses the attention of the American defense and security authorities.
– With increased availability also increases the risk. We can not just shoot down drones near people, writes Batelle on its website.
Also in Norway’s hobby usage of drones growing. For under a thousand tag anyone can buy a drone with user-friendly remote control and camera functions.
There are no prerequisites, age or education. Previously drone operators obtain permission to film, but this provision now includes only commercial use.
The CAA has prepared a simple operation manual for flying of aircraft operators have to deal with.
The regulation states that the drone must always be within sight, but with a maximum distance of 300 meters. The drone can moreover not fly higher than 130 meters.
A new updated regulations for unmanned aircraft (RPAS) is scheduled to be completed by 1 January 2016.
Camera Drones controlled by hobby users have been involved in several serious incidents in Norway in recent years.
The first Norwegian collision between aircraft and drone happened Sunday, August 30th in Tjome Municipality. According AIBN found a fly in the 800 meters altitude when aircraft pilot spotted a drone before he heard a bang.
In one approach routes at Roros Airport was in August observed a drone on a par with air travel.
– The drone was as high as air travel goes. There was no problems there and then, but in the worst case, this could have had fatal consequences, says chief air traffic controller at Avinor in Røros, Gudbrand Rognes, to Adresseavisen.
In connection with the extensive fire in Laerdal in January 2014 created drones problems for helicopters participated in rescue efforts. Drone pilot was reviewed.
– We must react, and do it with a review, says the Inspector General of the Air Force, Major General Finn Kristian Hannestad to ABC News.
Norwegian authorities fear that the growing popularity will lead to far more serious accidents.
– I would encourage anyone thinking to fly a drone to familiarize themselves with the regulations, and always take the necessary security, says communications manager Avinor Kristian Løksa in a press release.
It is unclear when “DroneDefender” are to find on store shelves.
Commercial distribution requires authorizations from the FCC, a US federal administrative agency that regulates telecommunications, broadcasting through radio waves and the use of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Until then get neighbor drone fly safely.

CEO Inge Grubben-Strømnes in Elkem Solar has high ambitions before they proceed with the pilot project in RECs old factory premises.
Elkem Solar will create the world’s greenest solar cell production, they will sell solar panels manufactured with a lowest possible energy consumption.
– What we should do at Porsgrunn, which is that we implement new technology, which uses even less energy to produce what eventually becomes solar panels, says Grubben-Strømnes.

Elkem Solar produces solar grade silicon at Fiskaa in Kristiansand. These are thought sent to Herøya to become the solar cell blocks.
– This allows the supply chain from Fiskaa and out into the world will be the most energy efficient supply chain in the world, says Grubben-Strømnes.
Half a year’s time, Elkem use of the pilot project, which has received 7.6 million kroner in support from Enova.
Marketing for industry in Enova, Oscar Gärdeman hope support can help provide Elkem Solar the answers they need, so they can move forward with this technology.
– It is a very exciting and energy-efficient technologies Elkem Solar wants to adopt. The technology responds to expectations it could contribute to the world solar cell production becomes cleaner, says Gärdeman.
If the pilot project ends in a positive decision, the first production line will be ready halfway out in 2016.
– We invest significant amounts in this pilot project, so we are optimistic that we will manage to create a good “case” for the restart of Herøya, says Grubben-Strømnes.
The pilot project will, among other things, be responsible for assessing the need for further risk reduction. A reopening of the factory with brand new technology will require investments of several hundred million.
– We envisage investing a few hundred million in upgrading the facility and so we envision hiring 70 -80 people, says Grubben-Strømnes.
In order to trigger the project will Elkem Solar seek funding from Enova, Innovation Norway, NAV, Growth in Grenland and other actors. SIVA has already endorsed the project and will be the owner of the factory premises.
– We hope that funding agencies know what they had and set up to relieve part of the risk. It will be necessary to take a positive decision, saying Grubben-Strømnes.

A unanimous congress adopted, however, also another, somewhat unexpected Resolution: The desire to introduce coding – that computer programming – that curriculum in elementary school.
It was FPU that came with the proposal, which was unanimously adopted by the Progress Party’s National Executive Committee.
– The fact that FRP as regjeringssparti go on to pursue this, it means that this is something our people in Parliament have to work with, and they have to lift it up to the Minister in the Cabinet, says FPU-chairman Atle Simonsen.
Already Minister Torbjørn Røe Isaksen (H) opened a pilot project with coding as electives for twenty Norwegian secondary schools. Therefore do not think Simonsen there will be no problem to get with the Conservatives on the team. FPU-chairman believes that it is important to start to learn the coding already in elementary school. Then elective subject in middle school to supplement the children have already learned, says Simonsen.
– When an increasing number of jobs are being replaced by software and robotics will be a big difference between a generation that can use technology and a generation who can develop technology. What makes me optimistic is that there are players who have expertise in this, and who are willing to spend time and effort to get it, and to provide teachers with the necessary expertise, says Simonsen.
He envisions that coding can be a learning objective in such mathematics.
Encoding is already introduced in the curriculum of primary schools in England. Finland is also in the process of introducing it.
Founder Simen Sommerfeldt movement Leather Kidsa Coding (LKK) rejoice over the new FRP policy.
– FPU has grasped that the world just becomes more and more digital and that it is a challenge that school as it is now does not give children the chance to become creators. I hope it’s something FRP receives a majority for, and I should like to see what party that does not support them, he said.

Statoil has started subsea wet gas compression on the Gullfaks field in the North Sea. The unique technology increases production by 22 million barrels of oil equivalent and extend plateau production by about two years from the Gullfaks South Brent reservoir, the company reported.
In mid-September started Statoil Åsgard subsea gas compression.
OVER 1,000 TONS: system on the seabed near Gullfaks consists of a protection structure weighing 420 tons, a compressor station with two compressors of five megawatts each that together weigh 650 tons, and all necessary equipment for power supply and control of the plant on the platform deck. Photo: Statoil
It is bergen company Framo Engineering who has been responsible for design and construction of the system Gullfaks. The contract had in 2012 a value of around NOK 900 million, and Framo would initially supply in November this year.
– We are very proud to have completed such a demanding pioneering project starting ahead of schedule, says Margareth Øvrum, executive vice president for Technology, Projects and Drilling in Statoil.
Today’s expected recovery for Gullfaks South Brent reservoir 62 percent. The combination of subsea compression and conventional low pressure production in a later phase, will be able to raise it to 74 percent.

– Seabed Based processing and gas compression represents the next generation of oil and gas. With this we have taken a big step forward, says Øvrum.
It is also possible to attach the second subsea wells up from the wet gas compressor via existing pipelines. The station is already prepared for new connections.
– We see great opportunities for NGL compression on the Norwegian shelf. It is an efficient system and a concept that can be used for enhanced recovery of small and medium-sized fields. We are working to identify more candidates who may be suitable, says Kjetil Hove, vice president, Operations West in Statoil.

However, it is common practice for Google to reward people who discover errors. It would according to Business Insider first do in Ved case. So they decided, after notified that the case gladly would rather that they should donate the money to charity.
Then the company instead increased the reward to the former Google employees. Opposite the newspaper will not case with the large sum he received from Google’s, but he reveals that it was at least more than 10 000 dollars. Although ownership was short-lived, it seems When it’s funny that he managed to buy the domain.
The money is according to the newspaper donated to a project to ensure education for children living in the Indian slummen.Saken about the happy buyer of the world’s most widely used domain, has attracted attention in international media.
Currently, it is not known what is the reason why kjøpsglippen, but according to case, it may be due to either a mistake or that the company simply forgot to renew the domain their on time.
It is not the first time something happens. In 2003, Microsoft was subjected to the same domain with Hotmail.co.uk. When was the company according to Business Insider actually have to buy the domain back from the lucky buyer. It was not necessary in connection with the nascent Google acquisition because the domain already, was owned by Google.

INDUSTRI: Gruveselskapet Nordic Mining og Institutt for engeriteknikk (IFE) har fått godkjent et nytt patent som kan gjøre produksjon av aluminium mer miljøvennlig.
Dagens aluminiumteknologi er i hovedsak basert på produksjon fra bauksittforekomster gjennom Bayer-prosessen. Med den nye teknologien, den såkalte Aranda-Mastin-prosessen, kan alumina utvinnes fra alternative mineralkilder, som anortositt, og denne produksjonen kan gjøres på en mer miljøvennlig måte. I tillegg til alumina produseres biproduktene utfelt kalsium karbonat (PCC, precipitated calcium carbonate) og silika. PCC er en kommersiell vare som brukes i papir, plastikk og maling. Silika kan blant annet brukes som fyllstoff i bildekk og plastikk og i sementproduksjon, skriver IFE på sin hjemmeside.
– Dette patentet er en viktig milepæl for denne teknologien, og den kan bety starten på spennende industrielle muligheter, kommenterer administrerende direktør i Nordic Mining, Ivar S. Fossum.
Denne nye flerproduktprosessen har potensiale til å oppnå nesten full utnyttelse av mineralforekomster med svært lav avfallsproduksjon. I tillegg forbruker prosessen ca. 500 000 tonn CO2 per million tonn alumina. Denne CO2-mengden kan enten lagres på en sikker måte eller inngå som del i en kommersiell verdikjede i form av råvaren PCC.
Norge har store anortositt-ressurser, med kort avstand til norske og europeiske smelteverk.

The aft Mark Zuckerberg to do something.
Therefore, Facebook gründeen send satellite into space to provide more Africans the opportunity to log on.
Poor economy, underdevelopment, technological challenges and poor infrastructure are some of the reasons why the continent south of the Sahara, chimes.
According to Zuckerberg’s Facebook account is satellite AMOS-6 under construction and scheduled for operations during 2016.
– The satellite will provide free internet access to large parts of Southern Africa, says Zuckerberg.
It’s Facebook project internet.org and network provider Eutelsat behind initiative.
Internet.org is a philanthropic project headed by Zuckerberg & amp; co., and involves many of the world’s communications giants, including Samsung, Ericsson, Nokia, Mediatek and Norwegian Opera Software.
The project’s primary goal is to assist an even larger share of the world population in get online.
– It is difficult to install and set up internet access in the traditional way in remote areas. Therefore, we must develop and offer new and more efficient technologies, says Zuckerberg about the satellite that will send Internet signals to Africa from the room.
Only 27 percent of the African population has access to the internet, and as at 30 June 2015 constitutes Africans only 10 percent of Internet users worldwide.
According to Zuckerberg, there are no limits to the technology’s potential.
– We are going to continue the job of pairing Worldwide, even if it means that we must look beyond our own planet.
45 percent of the world population currently has Internet Access – 1.3 billion of which are Facebook users.

This storage method has long since expired. The last floppy disk was produced by Sony as far back as in March 2011.
Healthcare has undergone extensive technological upgrades to meet higher demands for efficiency, safety and ease of use.
It is Norwegian Health Network which has been commissioned to facilitate the most secure and efficient electronic exchange of information between actors in the healthcare sector.
– But it does not help to have a communication line if the systems do not understand each other. The various systems do not just mean the same language, says CEO of Norwegian Health Network, Håkon Grimstad.
The problem is all the different IT systems and individual ways to keep a journal on.
The actors agree that communication in health care is inefficient, but would not comment on who is to blame for that part of the Health Norway goes offline in forward time.
– No. , I will not speculate about, says Grimstad.
The head of the Public Chamber of Physicians, Kari Sollien, denies that there is any technological reluctance among Norwegian GPs, but admits that the health network is not optimally utilized yet.
– We are all agreed that a well-functioning IT system is our most important tool in forward time. This is something we use a lot of resources and should be good at.
There are GPs who must pay for the necessary upgrades.
Director NorSIS, Roger Johnsen, fear diskettkommunikasjonens inertia more than safety hazard.
– This is not about the kind of person information itself is sensitive. What is critical is the time it takes to transmit it!
Since the updated patient lists are sent out on a fixed day each month, it may take as much as two weeks a patient to a different GP.
Something which at worst can put the lives and health at risk.
– It is both inconvenient and time consuming to transmit information in this way. There are far safer and more effective ways to send this type of information, so as to safeguard both the enhanced security and ensures that those who need info get it quickly and correctly, says Johnsen.
Health Directorate’s target is to liquidate floppy scheme within the year.
If the goal of a full digital platform reached the Directorate relies on “floppy doctors’ treasurer floppy drive for good.
– The core of health care is today. All private and public hospitals, GPs, all 428 municipalities, all 19 counties, pharmacies and 90% of dentists have access to the health network. There is nothing in the health network that makes that not everyone can use it, says Steinar Mathisen, director of the Health Directorate.
The problem is that one in five GPs will not log on. Whether this is because old habits, digital incompetence or inefficiency in the system itself, will not Mathisen speculate.
– We will find always a fee that is not there. These are mostly people who are a little up in age, with a little practice. I will not comment on why this is so, it must Nav answer. Everything is appropriate to use the health network, but for some reason you do not.
Nav would not answer any questions and referred Dagbladet back to the Directorate of Health again.
By New Year hope Directorate of Health that all GPs should have logged into the electronic system. When running namely agreement with Systor West – and diskettutsendelsene halt.
– The GPs who are not online then you will get the lists sent on paper, says Mathisen.
In envelope per letter post …
Should CMO plan flopping, is floppy artists Systor Vest ready to extend the commitment.
– We emptied disk bearings to both Komplett.no and former suppliers, and has the capacity, insures Gundersen.
