Lights down in Philadelphia as the machine started.
ENIAC was built in 1946 by J.P. Eckert and J.W. Mauchly. It was the first machine of the first generation that used electron tubes in its operation. 17 500 vacuum lamps, 7200 crystal diodes, 1500 relays, 70 000 resistors, 10 000 capacitors, 1500 manual switches. Its ventilation was driven by two Chrysler engines – each with 34 hp. It weighed 27 tons and had dimensions of 30 x 2.4 x 0.9 m, occupied 167 m2. He consumed 160 kW of power. ENIAC could not work for too long without a break – the obstacle was a very large power needed to heat the lamps. The machine calculated ballistic tables, it was also used in works on the hydrogen bomb, weather forecasting, designing wind tunnels, researching cosmic rays; also used to study random numbers and analyze rounding errors; also calculated pi to the nearest one thousand decimal digits.

Detection of drivers using phones while driving.
Lots of people use cell phones while driving. How many times have we seen people talking without loudspeakers or sending messages. It is very dangerous not only for these people but also for us drivers who follow the rules. To strengthen security, the Government of New South Wales in Australia introduced as the first intelligent camera system, set to automatically detect such drivers. Everything is based on artificial intelligence, which by analyzing the image looks for signs of using the phone. Then, the photos of the caught person are reviewed by an authorized person to prevent the system from misinterpreting the image. I must admit that this can greatly facilitate the work of the police. Cameras will help reduce the number of accidents. Drivers can reach for the phone less knowing that the camera will record them. Officials are confident that this will reduce the number of accidents on the road. Independent studies have calculated that the new camera system can prevent up to 100 fatal accidents over a five-year period. In this way, the government wants to reduce the number of road accidents by 30% before 2021.
