Water and magnets to make a computer

Water and not be compatible computer, almost every experienced notebook knows that spilled water, equally bad things such as magnets, these two articles are terrible killers for computer. Today, however, Lei feng's network to bring you a brand new computer, built by water droplets and electromagnet becomes.

Computer is usually a machine that can follow a procedure or instruction set, but this computer Unlike today's computers can process information, on the contrary, it can manipulate tiny water droplets. "Water is a very attractive material, because they are like a small bag, you can mount any of the things you want to", Manu Prakash of Stanford University engineers said the computer he designed together with his students.

In this project, Prakash and his team drops traces of magnetic nanoparticles injected into, then put them in the maze of metal the size of a stamp. Magnetic fluid motion along the magnet, this pattern of behaviour is equivalent to today's computer code "0" and "1".

 Authority of the team has been in physics at Stanford University published a paper in the journal nature physics, design and plan to release to the public the physical computers. Hope that one day, these little drops of water can play a role in the test tube, in analytical chemistry or biological components, more easily than current laboratory techniques.

Of course, the water becomes part of the computer is not new. Lei feng's network was introduced, there was a time that your computer is running on water.

The MONIAC was founded in 1949, full name national income analogue computer, used to analyze economic data, is based on the hydraulic. Simply put, water flows through the pipes and water tank through the pump, to calculate the current economic situation and its development trends.

Machine different tanks and water symbolize the different component of economic activity, such as banking, consumer spending and personal savings collection, Exchange, and so on. When you find on behalf of individuals deposits when the tank is almost full, you will want to encourage investment, be reduced through the expansion valve simulation of bank interest rates, allowing free flow of capital in the system as a whole more.
