the ventilator at the clean air but to better understand this let's break it down a little more after the particle filled air passes the simple pre-filter there electrodes are bombarded with a ten kilowatt charge this charge comes in handy later when the particles stick to polypropylene fibers becomes a static electricity but the charge also splits oxygen molecules creating ozone using something called the corona discharge method the resulting rich oxygen environment is toxic to all the little bacteria viruses and fund which means this filter does more than simply get rid of simple dust and dirt given that it can be a matter of life and death at hospitals to make sure that all the particles in harmful. don't come out here in their testing lab you can see that the air flowing out of the filter is free from all those that were there. so whether it be in coffee shops or operating rooms technology make sure that the air we breathe is as clean as possible. in north of years academic cluster you're never much more than

a short walk away from the siberian forest along the way you can run into all kinds of people scientists engineers and even fit with the latest military hardware. but don't worry. they're just dress the part to show off the latest thermal weapon site developed at the institute of city conductor physics here in novosibirsk. now we'll try to locate the three fighters with sniper rifles who have hidden themselves. there somewhere here in this forest. so no ordinary come a flash as you can see. we can spot any of them with just the naked eye. i'm trying to find that. you. can monitor the process at the same time on the screen. there's one. hiding behind

a tree in calif lies with the forest in the background be hard to spot him even if the visibility were normal. down on the other side of a small man and. i can just see the edge of his face and hood. the third one. is in an abandoned construction site in the corner of a dark room with a metal grating. so we found all three fighters it's hard to hide from a thermal site. in terms of image processing i believe we're the leaders. we use a powerful processor that we've developed. it's based on very promising technology called high performance reconfigurable computing. because it gives us a very large optical band with nearly two times more energy efficient. it

can run for four hours with only four double a batteries consuming three watts of energy. spawning those potential bad guys with such easy work because of the powerful image processor within the site just point its low energy demands it still produces image quality that second to no other non cool from a site all the computing power is packed onto a series of circuit boards assembled by the skilled team of engineers know it may look like a never ending maze of copper silicon and plastic so you or me but to those that built it it's a thing of computing elegance. trying to obtain as much functionality as we could while keeping it old as small as possible more than we have a microprocessor capable of running at a frequency of five hundred meg. the programmable logic. it's comparable to

a chip from a pentium it has several dozen megabytes of memory and much more. in such a small package so this isn't the limit of what we can do and we're already looking into how it can be made smaller and better. traditionally. had to employ cooling but that made them both bulkier and far more expensive but thanks to recent advances those from the institute of silly conductor physics can offer us the best of both worlds. we figured out. how to distribute power in terms of the range. averaging it out along the whole spectrum. in such a way that the signal coming from long distances is the same as from short distances. the prize for these known cool thermal sites with micro ball or metric matrices is pulling drastically. we expect to be able to put such cameras in mobile

phones in fifteen years in affordable mobile phones of course. in terms of image quality. they're close to expensive cryogenic systems. so despite its small size and light weight these newest sights allow us to see things previously impossible on such devices whether we're looking straight into the sun or trying to spot something on the waterfront that's no problem for soldiers equipped with these sights designed and manufactured right here in siberia but if time is the only thing you need to kill there's one company that makes waiting for you less than punctual for a little more enjoyable. entertainment russian game designers and artists are hard at work to distract you from yours the games may seem simple compared to blockbusters like quake and modern warfare the amount of work required for these casual games is often overlooked a dedicated team has to collaborate together to take it from

a national idea to finished product and that's precisely what has assembled out here in novosibirsk as a result of their hard work they're by far the largest and most successful gaming company in eastern europe and based on what they've done lately they can clearly compete with the best that the west has to offer but they found that with accolades and success come ever growing considerations. kind of financial resources that you work with at the beginning and what kind now. thousands one could spend something like ten thousand dollars or even less to make a game that's completely competitive. today to make a game that would be his in its own zone. talking about casual games we don't speaking about major blockbusters in the hard cold gaming genre one has to spend in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars. and that's true for one of the alum wars biggest titles the treasures of montezuma has proved so comfy among casual

gamers that it's already on its third iteration it's ranked as high as number two on the list i pad app store a list of most damning games with each new version in the montezuma series the developers have to give players a reason to pony up the cash for the latest one and that's what seems to drive the increasing costs as you can see it takes far more than a few clicks of the mouse to make an idea for a new game come to life and that's something that makes our success even more satisfying to these developers. actually just this last december we released our first game on the windows phone seven platform scold from frenzy to it was a pleasure to see that the game immediately shot to the top of the us marketplace it was the fifth most popular on that lists unfortunately i'm not ready to brag about any specific figures in terms of downloads because it's a new plant from and there's not yet enough information as to how much for example

fourth plane sealed in a day week month regardless the fact itself of being in the top list is rather nice . now maybe it's because many of us yearn for a simpler life on the farm but whatever the reason farming games like this can prove to be a big success but nowadays it's not enough to release a game on just one platform you have to cover them all to have a chance at a hit you know where planning to develop and trade more and more new titles and put them out and more and more new platforms not only for p.c.'s but also from max possibly sony playstation three or. the longer the perspective audience the most possibilities on the coasts are not as high as they used to be. so with companies like al or round it's safe to say that sites like this are only going to become more common but it's no longer just teenagers and twenty somethings from

middle age to retirees nearly everyone is getting in on the casual game bandwagon despite all the funding games are mobile devices now offer us it's important to put them down every once in awhile and see the real world around us but in ways that will do for this edition of technology update we'll see you next time and until then enjoy the ride. wealthy british sign on to sign some time to. market why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with max cons or for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars

pilots damascus criticizes the move alleging it's aimed at increasing pressure for foreign intervention and will also encourage more violence from the group of. protesters in poland to found to continue fighting the international anti web piracy pact that they say brings internet censorship under the guise of protecting copyrights. and yet another blow to the struggling euro zone as the credit ratings of five nations are cut despite the crisis tackling optimism at the world economic

forum in davos. and broadcasting live direct from the heart of moscow this is our team glad to have you with us let's get right to our top stories. the arab league has frozen its monitoring mission in syria because of the escalation of violence there more than one hundred people are thought to have been killed in clashes between syrian security forces and opposition groups in the past two days the u.n. security council remains a split on how to end the crisis russia has given i was out doing it you know to a new resolution on syria drafted by the e.u. and arab states that warns of further action is. damascus fails to comply with text calls for president assad to transfer power to a deputy moscow says the resolution should not contain any threat of sanctions or

imply any outside intervention political analyst stephen london believes if not by chance arab league has halted its mission just as western powers i and open conflict. oh my goodness that sounds like a no fly zone to different language it was an open sesame to direct intervention meeting war the observers were saying it is syria they picked the wrong man to lead the mission sudanese general. they thought they had the air man in charge who with deliver the goods against the side believing him for everything going oh i'm cool what a general he do what he said assad is cooperating it's exactly the opposite of what the last one they wanted a pretext to step up whatever they have in mind which is some kind of. the best solution is the way syria's civil it's only a theory and here is

a legitimate opposition in syria syria is that authoritarian the reporter in the when they've got a young group or did we get to go get a national poll that apparently got some credibility sit on a binge already of syrians aside for america and britain and the arab league and there's to intervene in syria's spears and to have an arrogant resolution saying and all the way do it yet bt in two weeks well assad absolutely should in diplomatic way which told these people to to go. i mean it intensifying fighting between the syrian army and opposition groups artie's sara for us has been to an area near the capital which was recently taken over by rebel fighters as she reports although the opposition is united against the regime they are poles apart on their methods. ok message from the protesters in the suburb of damascus as if you know old takes place. we don't want killing we don't want to. see.

children killing we don't read them we don't know what we will do you. live. here i mean this this is going to all come to us for now they feel safety is being provided by the free syrian army the guerrilla body made up of many army defectors who say its presence here has enabled protests like these to go ahead. ever since the military cannot come in anymore because the free syrian army is protecting us we support the free syrian army and we support. the former army colonel heads the f.s.a. from the brute he's been steadfast from the start and his calls the foreign military intervention of his safe are void of partnerships with any other opposition elements he sees defense significant inside the country and the national coordination council one of the leading opposition groups remains adamant that

foreign military intervention would make an already to tear erasing situation even worse whole while the security position has caused some areas to get out of control it seems that there is a war between two groups on the outside the country and it's the syrian national council pitching itself as the main opposition but it too has failed to unify the many different opposition factions and this lack of unity has hampered the calling coups for direct u.n. involvement russia and china remain firmly opposed to a resolution that leaves the door open to foreign military intervention and a far cry from previous calls to dialogue qatar and saudi arabia now talk to the opposition i mean this could cost even more lives the same many knisley to find. rebel groups to you have to work with the other side working with the other side.

of. the f.s.a. say they have little choice but to use weaponry to protect civilians. who have this mean square here in town with people who come out and protest even the security forces try to come in but we protect them but this is what's happening here but it remains a precarious situation in the moments of confusion the crowd gets nervous and starts to run at one point gunshots still says where they've come from all from oh you can believe it that a lot of confusion here on the face saving everyone reading in a different direction not exactly sure what's going on at all that the you know as safe situations they are right now and all of this happening just fifteen minutes from the city center is just a day before it seemed egypt government demonstrations so position can show continues to gain ground the divisions within the country have never been clear a. day and i did. well sara is keeping her blog

updated at r.t. dot com where she's posting extensively on the situation in syria where you'll also find images from various parts of the country that haven't made up the river as of yet the latest pictures show people rallying in that assad back. down the official. i pod touch from the. video. feed now in the palm of your. polish protesters are refusing to give up the fight over the anti web piracy pact their countries signed up to more demonstrations are planned against. the multinational deal forged in secrecy that activists say allows firms to censor the

internet in the e.u. official resigned over the treaty which was signed by twenty two european countries earlier this week. the reports from warsaw. a passer by from england confused scenes on friday in central warsaw with the filming of a sequel for the hollywood movie before. judging from the number of masked men and cameras such resemblance was tangible the film character fought for revolution these people are also standing for change to stop the anti counterfeit trade agreement act from becoming law in poland minus fifteen degrees centigrade is definitely not an excuse for thousands who gathered in central warsaw friday common it's a week of numerous mass rallies across the world with people protesting against the internet censorship act in may have a positive aim to protect intellectual property but these protesters fear it will be used to police the web and take harmless websites offline eighty engineer march

and says he's work is under threat because of actors obscurity with the international pact worked out in complete secrecy issues with. first of all. the. possibility of legally censoring information the government. is very unclear the negotiations have lost since two thousand and four and nobody's been told anything unlike the week's massive anti active protests in poland friday's showdown had clear political overtones while the majority of the crowd was voicing no to the treaty a large chunk was directing their anger at the government experts saying the scale of public dissent has managed to make war soldiers ruling elite nervous the government was promoting itself as being modern as being people probably internet

and people trying to keep them accountable so when they discover that the government is supporting something without doubt it was purely political answer to no we don't believe this but this considers the harm governments are pretty nice in the steadily see. their point of view. and the n.r.o. that they might not ratify act and they will have a second fault so after a week of ignorance i think suddenly they realize that the protests are much deeper . to become law in poland needs the approval of the polish and european parliament nobody knows for sure how long this might take but protesters say they will continue piling the pressure on the authorities to stop this happening and i think it came as a complete shock nobody expected nobody expected. this going to think i think there will be a lot more. regulation

prime minister has been adamant war so would not give in to and blackmail in the streets what was initially a quiet social protest has become politically broader with every rally ask elating in both the numbers present and the level of aggression let's see russia. reporting from warsaw poland. twitter is in a flap over a censorship scandal of its own it's after the microblogging firm said it can now remove tweets country by country if they flout a local laws needless to say users are furious at the potential free speech purge liberty campaign or aaron swartz told r.t. that countries that censor and twitter should expect this to backfire. important thing to understand about twitter's policy though is that it's reactive if they get it in response to government order or a court order and what's nice about twitter is because it's

a real time service the government is going to be slower than twitter almost always you know by the time you get a court order asking someone to take down a tweet and by the time twitter reviews it and it goes through all the policies it is will probably be passed and everyone on twitter will have read it already it'll have been repeated hundreds of times twitter has been especially admirable in how they deal with this in that they are particularly highlighting tweets that have been censored by the government so there's no none of this disguise that goes on with some of the other major companies where things just suddenly disappear and you don't know why twitter has said they'll make it very clear to their users your government is censoring you and i think that'll be a huge step in pressuring both people to share the stuff that was censored but also pressuring governments to change their policies we've seen this incredible uprising all around the world against censorship in various forms whether it was sofa in the us or act in europe and i think it's just going to build people realize they have this power now they can win changes not just from companies but from governments and the more people realize that the more people are going to get involved and participate and the more that happens the harder time everyone is going to have censoring people if you are with our t.v.

just ahead how even the winter chills don't stop global warming getting people under the collar. would you be willing to blow dry your hair anymore yes i'd be willing would you be willing to dry your clothes so i don't mind it never you drag . that. the resident asks people in new york what they would sacrifice to save the planet. then we head off to sochi as skiers and put the slopes through their paces for the first time before they welcome the winter olympics finest in two years time. iran is banning sales of oil to the european union in a retaliatory move after the e.u. banned oil from iran lawmaker. as in tehran have finalized a draft bill to be discussed on sunday immediately halting crude oil sales in response to an e.u. in bargo on the rainy and fuel to begin in the summer iran is also to restart talks

on sunday with un nuclear inspectors in tehran the first such discussions in over three years the country's nuclear program which the iranians insist is peaceful is the source of rising tension with the west which fears it's for military reasons the e.u. is planning to ban oil imports by july but tehran is going to move to make the first move by cutting supplies earlier possibly even next week laura smith is in london where anti-war protesters are fearing the worst in the continuing standoff. the people here are saying that this is just the first step instruction of many against that calling a possible war with iran that got a tear outside the u.s. embassy in london and that message is very clear you can see on the ban is all around me saying don't attack iran calling on people to stand up and be counted and oppose a possible war with iran which these they say is becoming more and more likely as

sanctions are in recently by the e.u. both on oil exports and on financial assets and of course that also you cite saying the reason that killing any raney and scientists myspace it was carried out by either the israel or the u.s. they saying that it's a growing threat against iran and they're here to show you that there is very little public support in this country anyway for a war with abroad people have seen in this country tools in the long run he is known. for an extremely cold spring financially in terms of human law if. people feel those a war only raul is not justified it's brutalized by the side with. the big a very skeptical of being held to the case. outside the u.s. embassy to protest against what these people are calling this u.s. imperialism and they say that the government and the mainstream media in this

country is building on something and they'll be coming out on the streets repeatedly to protest against. parties last month reporting for us there now the march of the multinationals in india is threatening to wipe out millions of smaller grocery stores while it's likely to mean cheaper food and jobs boost the pre-packed food future well and generations of local market traditions as pressure either discovered. this dry food store has been in september seeing chalons family for six generations it's one of the many small retail stores that have been operating in this market in old delhi for hundreds of years the longer one of the six generations of our family grew financially and provided us with everything but now seeing child one's way of life could be at risk after years of pressure the indian government decided to allow foreign multibillion retailers the likes of tesco and

wal-mart access to one of the fastest growing middle classes in the world until now india only allowed single brand foreign retailers like reebok to enter the country even though the indian economy opened up more than a decade ago economists here argue that the country needed at least five years to build up its domestic multi brand retail sector before allowing foreign competition into the country but now politicians argue that it might be the perfect time for foreign companies to enter india's five hundred ninety billion dollars retail sector the politicians behind the push say that farmers can make more money and consumers will pay less for food if these stores are allowed into india these retailers could provide organization to india supply chain by cutting out unnecessary middlemen president obama and other western leaders have also been putting pressure on india to allow their stores to open in the country arguing that they could provide jobs to millions of indians but small business owners still argue that it's an idea that would jeopardize.
