he just minutes after taking off from jakarta $62.00 people on board. wanting to weigh in is next up is chef living in the digital age with a closer look at 5 g. technology and more headlines for you at the top of the hour in the meantime remember it you can always get all the latest news on our web site w dot com on a conference thanks for chiming in. they want to know what makes the devil he just hit the gym. on banning going away from. i'm not even out the door for my own good and everyone was late holding everything. up getting are you ready to meet the evidence and join me right just do it on d. w. . how does the virus spread. why do we panic and when we'll all miss. just 3 of the topics covered and we couldn't read your show is called

spectrum if you would like any information on the wrong a virus or any other science topic you should really check out our podcast so you can get it wherever you get your podcast you can also find us at. science. should have special healthfully genes will change our lives. gene is a quantum leap in technology it'll facilitate the internet of things and self driving cars with this new generation of wireless networking technology machines can communicate with each other. stuff is excited about the switch. he knows 5 g. will revolutionize do you transmission. it's not just that smartphones will connect faster to the internet it's unclear. there devices. it's that connectivity all

together is being overhauled this is the most important change. crucial 5 g. will allow autonomy as communication between separate entities. self driving vehicles will be called fit for the road and 5 g. will make virtual reality applications the internet of things smart factories and other new tech much more mainstream fast wireless networking technology connects to servers. which are sometimes located far away on another continent. but this is much too slow for autonomy vehicles and similar applications if you have. 5 g. on the other hand taps into decentralized processing power by using small servers connected to the network. this trustingly decreases response times and latency. the goal is to reduce response times to below 5 milliseconds. virtual

reality applications will build on these ultra fast response times which is good news for good stuff who's looking forward to the more tactile internet even tell a surgery performed remotely across vast distances could become possible. smartphone technology would change to. the plan is for numerous small antennae to optimize their connections so we can receive personalized data packages. signals can be pinpointed amplified or dialed down as needed. this will help reduce our exposure to radio frequency radiation. to achieve higher data transmission speeds 5 g. will use more of the electromagnetic spectrum.

stuff can't wait for his new 5 g. phone. with it can be able to sue me to sleep download and upload data on the 3rd perk of accelerated 5 g. data transmission speeds. is an electrical engineer and researcher he's been coordinating the fight to lead germany a major technology tech but $600.00 scientists since 2014. fighting about. this new evil radically change our lives if i get the question is whether people will realize 5 to technologies at play. or in an autonomous taxi without a driver takes them to the theater they will not say and that's 5 to technology that's come up instead of 5 g.'s more like a discrete facilitator working in the back row it in from you but it will all

become an essential element over a future life of doing limbs on it one of 5 g. lab germany's research areas is the tactile internet. 5 g. will offer lightning quick response times ideally as low as one milli 2nd or 1000 a 2nd. 5 g. connectivity a tuck tile glow phone be able to transmit precise movements to a robot and vice versa. virtual objects will feel like the real deal. creating a new interface between humans and machines. before number with we have found is that this millisecond that everyone talks about matters a lot if you play an instrument let's say we pluck a string but the sound doesn't reach or you're within 3 milliseconds you feel disconnected from that instrument of the touch something in the words will environment and receive instant haptic feedback from

a so called i'm told and then this will also feel real to us and it often this can from a. british university of carving trees are getting a little bison 5 to technology in its own network decision has made milk learning much easier during the coronavirus pandemic. assistant professor wires teaches a cutting edge anatomy seminar. he takes his physiotherapy students at an immersive virtual reality journey inside the human body. and students to be immersed within the body within a blood vessel within the muscles in the bones to have a spirit something more than a code in their traditional textbooks. this is possible thanks to the university's very own 5 g. network in combination with cloud x. our technology students can stream virtual reality content in real time and even

when many devices are connected response times remain lightning fast 5 g. almost why didn't the chub the information goes down so with forgery we know the chips fairly big and lots of information go goes down the tube with 5 g. that chub might wind up by about 10 times so we get far more information down which means we can get what's a very good visuals happening in real time between the lecture and the student. students can use their smartphones to stream doctors a useful feature of when social distancing is key. teach students in a range of settings so they don't all have to be in the same classroom they can be across a compass and we can interact with them and have a 2 way discussion. because of the pandemic many students are working by themselves . to niggle virtual reality seminar on campus was

a welcome change. in the riemann learning come because i but with this it makes it more exciting and interesting and therefore you want to learn online and it's makes your quality of work still really high even though you know physically in uni not to me very practically. in the past work before k.v. thomas we were kind of using each other as models to identify the kind of body structures and muscles and. show you that same structures but remember much more detailed close up function. wires and it's called leagues hope they can develop many more innovative teaching methods like this using 5 g. technology. but are there health risks linked to this new mobile network technology some people are convinced there are. 2

scientists agree. so is unofficial as critical the 5 g. technology she doesn't think we need it. just scared of 5 g. because mobile network technology generally is a health risk you can find even more so it hasn't even been properly studied there it's just a few preliminary studies and those have alarming findings that scares me and we're basically guinea pigs. so it's on a and other activists want to make people in the city of hyper aware of the danger of. radio frequency radiation her husband hans-peter fishback a similarly concerned to keep their family safe the parents do what they can to shield their home from radiation. through we've thought about ways to protect ourselves in are all through. measures outside radiation levels and has wire mesh in place to shield his family home from radio waves the fish box are especially

cautious about protecting their daughters monica and sagna from exposure inside the home everyone uses ether net cables to access the internet sources of electromagnetic radiation like why fiber tears aren't allowed. sonia does have her own smart phone but her parents have her using an internet cable to go online. and i don't think this works for all smartphones and it took a while until my father found out which adapter i needed to make it work but yet i'm happy with it. many studies and books have been published on the effects of mobile phone radiation on the human body some say these prove the technology poses a significant health risk others highlight methodological shortcomings and the research for example in a major u.s. study that showed that radio frequency radiation caused cancer in rats germany's federal office or radiation protection says this finding tells us nothing about the

impact of radiation exposure on humans as the rats were subjected to radiation 20 times higher than the permitted limits for humans the german agency does not classify high frequency electric magnetic fields as a health risk. to learn more reports of funk that take met with environmental epidemiologist at this was tropical and public health institute and basil. hosley is a renowned expert on mobile phone radiation. there are already concerns were the 1000000 turned. it's being installed people think this will lead to more radiation but is that really the case in this moment at 1st you could think there is more radiation but actually the opposite is true it means anyone using a mobile phone will be exposed to less radiation because phones will have better reception so phone signals don't have to be a strong and scientists far which reduces overall radiation levels mean there are relatively recent large scale studies on bret that seem to show that radiation

causing tumors how can that be explained while there are inconsistency is also the study of the 1st tumor that was found was a schwannoma of the heart which does not occur in humans there are very few cases worldwide where it has been found the 2nd point is that the rats in the study were exposed to far higher radiation levels apparently it also benefited the rats scientists as they lived longer at the ceiling again the rats exposed to radiation live longer than those that were not that rarely gets mentioned when you get home. because he said that there is a long term study on occurrences of brain tumors that spans the mobile phone era but in all of this here are brain tumor incidences in sweden you can see that the curves remain constant for everyone below the age of 76 nothing has changed in the past 40 years you can see an uptick in the age brackets above 79 and i think that's

has to do with people growing progressively older sort of to funerals these are all those one ages the risk of developing a brain tumor increases a hiding to more to come as is but the picture is unclear from critics who smartphone radiation seem to have that back their yards and that's one of the but the other side says that there is no hope the risk then argue a clear causal link or not be established for mr president if you thought that many epidemiological studies would you know with the testicle that are from many countries in australia england scandinavia in the show no indicate. shingled higher brain tumor incidence and who wants one but the risk were critics say the data should show this so i'm feeling a bit more relaxed though that our research this. water

is the source of life but too much water can be deadly. boring go in kenya that's exactly what's happening i grew up here my past 20 years of life has been to disappoint. the water levels are continuously rising due to deforestation and climate change. can an environmental catastrophe can still be stopped 77 percent. of. motor sport is it still a man's turn no way. to compete in a race car driving. and they are winning. our men's motorsport expert fastest female race car driver in long time ok let's read. them 60 minutes long don't lose.

my ideas is harm's way to bring you more conservation playing how do we make see the screen or how can we protect habitats we can make a difference global mind to those fundamental series again global sukkos a long t.w. dong line. hello and welcome to the 77 percent my name is edith kimani and this week we have such a special edition on last show where we're talking about how we the youth are being affected by the chain. it is in our environment coming to you from this scenic lake bulgarian national reserve right here in kenya. coming up on the show. we hear from some mccaffrey our young activist from uganda has joined the global climate movement to find out how almost like a meeting kenya is adapting to climate change any legal.
