Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the Toshiba Laptop Battery
Toshiba has announced its latest tablet, the AT300SE, which is essentially an entry level version of the AT300.
The tablet comes with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and a 10.1-inch LCD touchscreen, with the AT300 offering a 10.1-inch LED screen. The AT300SE has a resolution of of 1280 x 800 and claims a "wide viewing angle".
Powering the device is a Tegra 3 processor with an integrated graphics controller, 1GB of RAM, accompanied by a two-cell 25.0Wh battery -- Toshiba stressed that users will receive up to 10 hours of battery like Toshiba PA3451U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3457U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3634U-1BAS Battery , Toshiba PA3692U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3692U-1BAS Battery , Toshiba Tecra R10 Battery , Toshiba PA3357-1BRL Battery , Toshiba PA3509U-1BRM Battery , Toshiba PA3635U-1BAM Battery , Toshiba PA3636U-1BRL Battery , Toshiba PA3728U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3817U-1BRS Battery life once it's fully charged. As for the speed of the device, the firm hasn't released details yet but expect similar to the AT300's 1.3GHz.
Ports includes a microUSB jack, microSD card slot that supports up to 64GB of storage space and a headphone/mic port. The AT300SE, which comes with 16GB of storage, boasts two cameras, a 3 megapixel one situated on the back of the device and a front-facing 1.2MP camera. However, they're both slightly lower quality than the cameras found on the original AT300.
The tablet weighs in at 625 grams, while its thickness is 10.5mm. Toshiba has also implemented a textured material on the back that makes the device easier to grip.
The Toshiba AT300SE is currently scheduled for a release sometime during Q4 2012.
Toshiba has revealed a new robot intended to explore the radioactive mess of Japan’s Fukushima No.1 reactor in Tokyo, a four-legged beast that can birth a second, separate robot to squeeze through narrow spaces. The tetrapod ‘bot – which resembles a Toshiba-branded coolbox on spindly legs, and carries both a camera and a dosimeter – is remotely controlled by a wireless operator, and has clever onboard intelligence that allows it to totter across uneven terrain without tumbling.
In fact, the artificial smarts are so good, the robot can automatically avoid obstacles as it wanders through the Tokyo Electric power plant, in addition to climbing stairs. A maximum speed of 1km/h (0.6mph) means it’s hardly going to worry the 18mph DARPA cheetah robot which broke records back in March, but should be enough a fair amount of exploration given its 2hr battery life.
Toshiba developed the robot because there are still plenty of areas at the Fukushima plant where wheeled or tracked alternatives simply can’t get through. However, it’s not small – standing more than a meter high, and over half a meter wide – and so there’s a second camera robot that can be deployed via a robotic arm, for narrower gaps.
That companion ‘bot – a little taller than a 1U rack unit – is tethered back to the main tetrapod via a cable, but carries its own battery good for an hour of use. It’s even slower than its parent, with a top speed of 0.12mph, but means the safety team can navigate through pipes and around toppled equipment.
Toshiba says the next stage is to give the robot the ability to install shielding, end leaks, and remove obstacles, helping make the power plant safer for human involvement. There’s no word on when it might first go exploring.
