<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Have you ever felt like the soothing sound of  a moving fan actually helps you in falling asleep? Ever missed your peaceful sleep back at home while travelling somewhere? Well, SNOOZ is inspired from the same. SNOOZ consists of a proprietary fan to generate live, natural white noise that is adjustable.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What’s more is that it doesn’t disturb the surrounding air and there are no looping tracks or low-quality speakers. Also, the speed and volume of the fan can be altered by simply rotating its stepless dial.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Other unique feature of SNOOZ is nursery calibration – which is a feature that ensures safe sound level for infants. So if you’re a new parent, this is exactly what you’ve been looking for.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Other features like energy efficiency (uses the energy equivalent of a 12W LED bulb) and ultra portability adds to its uniqueness and utility. SNOOZ being app enabled, now you needn’t even get up from your bed. You can adjust the tone, volume, speed and even night light right from your bed.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

Quantum Internet is Coming, Quantum Teleportation Sets New Record

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) involved the transportation of quantum of information contained in one photon to another photon over a 102 km distance to an NIST laboratory in Colorado.</span></div>
<div class="code-block code-block-9" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin: 8px auto; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Data carrying photons were considered unsuitable for long distance communication as during a standard trip over a distance in an optical fiber, 99 percent of photons never complete the trip. But, this time, a single photon carrying quantum data completed such long distance with the help of newer detectors.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“Only about 1 percent of photons make it all the way through 100 km of fiber,” NIST’s Marty Stevens says. “We never could have done this experiment without these new detectors, which can measure this incredibly weak signal.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</span><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The new detectors use superconducting nanowires made using molybdenum silicide and it can detect more than 80 percent of arriving photons. This experiment was performed at wavelengths commonly used in telecommunications, so a quantum internet should be arriving soon.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Quantum internet is a new kind of internet that would be slower, but more secure. The scientists can encode the quantum states of an object onto light particles and broadcast it over long distances. These quantum states then would be used to decode the information and use it further.</span></div>
