Reports: Fingerprint Mobile – Mobile

From the turn of the century onwards, it has regularly launched mobiles, PDAs, tablets and other gadgets with built-in fingerprint reader. In most cases, it was all about niche products for specific markets or customers with special security requirements, but when Apple bought biometrics company Authentec and presented the iPhone 5S with Touch ID exploding interest. Today it would be almost unthinkable to launch a premium handset without the fingerprint sensor or any other type of biometric login.

Fingerprint sensors in mobile phones is about making it easy to get good security. You can quickly unlock your phone and you do not use your PIN code in environments where there are many people who can see what you enter, says Jörgen Lantto, CEO of Fingerprint Cards.

Fingerprint Cards, headquartered Gothenburg, together with Synaptics and Idex one of the largest companies in the global market when it comes to sensors for fingerprint. The company was founded in 1997 and showed in 1999 a prototype of a fingerprint reader for mobiles in collaboration with Ericsson. The first major customers were Chinese banks that needed a technical solution to prevent the employees from borrowing each other’s terminals and making erroneous transfers.

Jörgen Lantto says that there are two main types of fingerprint readers – “swipe” and “touch” . Around 2010 began Fingerprint Cards developing its first sensors were crisp products in mobiles. It was the swipe sensors that builds up a picture of the fingerprint when you slide your finger over the reader. Today is the touch sensors that are demanded by the market and it will go just as easy to scan your fingerprint as pressing a button. It is the type of sensor that Apple uses and it works on lknande way with the sensors Fingerprint Cards supplies, for example, Huawei Honor 7 and the two new Nexus mobiles from Google.

Apple is currently leading the development and have both managed to get the technology into models that sell well and standardized interface with APIs that allow app developers can take advantage of the reader. Although several Android mobiles – for example, the Motorola Atrix 4G – began to be sold before the iPhone 5S as it is the first Android 6.0 Marshmallow that technology becomes a part of the system and an app with support for fingerprint can function in phones from different brands.

Environment crucial for autistic children’s schooling in India – forskning.se

In her dissertation Shruti Taneja Johansson that the concept of inclusion has spread all over the world. Taking the example of India, she shows the complexity that surrounds the schooling of children with autism.

Through several trips to the country, observations and a number of interviews with parents, teachers, principals and other experts in the field, she brings the conditions of the autistic children’s education, a knowledge that so far the closest been non-existent. She believes that the child’s environment, particularly parents and teachers, are vital if school to work.

– Parental involvement was a key factor in child would have access to the education that they are entitled to. In many cases, parents are forced to withhold the diagnosis for the school to increase the child’s chance of being adopted, says Shruti Taneja Johansson.

If the child can fit in any school, it will likely have around forty classmates and a teacher who never heard of the disability of autism.

The study shows, however, that the teachers, despite no or very limited knowledge about autism, in many cases, could identify the child’s strengths and difficulties and based on these provide good support so that the school succeeded.

The school, which now came to turn out for children with autism in India, is often not so much with the individual child’s difficulties making. Greater importance had assumptions and perceptions about, for example, school assignments, the teacher’s role and approach to disability that are deeply embedded in the Indian education system and in society at large.

– There is a need to get away from the Western approach that most focus on what is not being done and instead create an understanding of the tensions, dilemmas and above all the complexity related to schooling for children with disabilities in countries like India. Only then can we identify strengths and obstacles and actually help children seriously, says Shruti Taneja Johansson.

Shruti Taneja Johansson presented her thesis Autism-in-context. An Investigation of schooling of children with a diagnosis of autism in urban India external link, opens in new window at the Department of Education and Special Education Friday, October 30, at 13.00.

Lundin Pettersson charted the Crown before the attack – Swedish Radio

Anton Lundin Pettersson’s computer shows how he prepared the deed in Trollhättan. Among other things, he bought materials online and sought information about the school crown.

– In mid-October we are starting to see an activity directed against the school, the computer searches shows that he seems to have mapped the school, says the preliminary investigation Thord Haraldsson.

Thursday morning was 21-year-old Anton Lundin Petterson wearing a black mask and long coat in the krona school in Trollhattan .

Surveillance cameras show how he marches through the corridors and allow themselves to be photographed together with students.

Among other finds now the police that the equipment and clothing used in the attack were bought online and that he was in mid-October start taking an interest particularly for school crown.

Still want the police not disclose any details of the farewell letter that 21-year-old left behind.

The letter should clearly demonstrated that he was planning some kind of attack, but not where, when or how.

– It says that he is not satisfied with the Swedish immigration policy, the old and ill do not get help because of immigration, and that he therefore feels compelled to act. It is also clear that he is willing to lose his own life. More than that I do not want to say with regard to his family, says Thord Haraldsson.

What have they said about this event?

– It came probably as a total surprise to them what I understand.

After the attack in Trollhattan support has been great for the affected school.

However, the network spreads even opposite, espousal comments and pure incitement to carry out similar attacks at other schools.

– There have been a number of threats, including on social media, that we try to directly act on and prevent. Part of the investigation involves identifying what has been written online about the environment and the people in our area, says Thord Haraldsson’s investigators.

EU abolishes roaming charges and introduce criticized rules on net neutrality – IDG.se

EU Parliament approves the proposal on new rules for net neutrality and roaming charges. It is clear after today’s vote.

Roaming charges for voice calls, text messages and surf the EU banned completely June 15, 2017, but already the end of April next year lowered the ceiling on fees dramatically. Then the maxavgifterna following:

  • Outgoing voice calls: 0.05 euros per minute (currently 0.19).

  •  
  • text 0.02 euros per message (currently 0.06).
  •  

  • Mobile Data: 0.05 euros per megabyte (currently 0.2).
  •  

roaming

charge caps for incoming calls have not been decided, but should be lower than the outgoing.

Net neutrality means in short that all traffic the Internet will have the same priority. Operators should not be allowed to some services before, or strangle others speed. If neutrality is disrupted it can have major consequences.

– Thanks to the agreement, Europe will be the only region in the world to legally guarantee an open Internet and net neutrality. The principle of net neutrality will apply directly in all EU countries. The law also ensures that we will not get the internet in two speeds, said Pilar del Castillo, who presented the matter to Parliament.

But the new rules that the EU face today has been criticized by many. It states namely that operators may give priority to certain services, as long as it is not done at the expense of others. Many believe that this creates a sour cream for those companies that can afford it.

There are those who argue that the kind of priorities in the extension can create a segregated internet. The actors who can afford to pay dearly for their services are faster to load, others end up down in a tough moorland.

Many technology companies have been concerned by the proposal. In an open letter sent to European Parliament President Martin Schulz, before the vote, writes the 40 companies and investors to the risk of “undermining net neutrality and threaten to during my European technology industry.” Among the senders are Netflix, Kickstarter, Reddit and North Zone.

A controversial example of Sweden’s mobile operator Tres campaign, where you can stream music from Spotify without count in your data consumption. This gives Spotify priority of Three. Some other companies at risk are streaming sites that generate huge traffic, which can be made to pay dearly to get a sufficiently high priority.

Another profiled critics of the now clubbed proposal is Sir Tim Berners-Lee , the man who created the World Wide Web.

– If the rules are introduced as they are written now, they will threaten innovation, free speech and privacy, and compromise the ability of Europe to become a leader in the digital economy, he wrote on his blog before the vote.

It has tumbled a polarized debate throughout the negotiation of the agreement. EU Council of Ministers has wanted to leave it to the operators themselves to put restrictions, while Parliament wanted to see a complete net neutrality, where no one gets priority.

The proposal voted through today is a compromise that can have a big impact on the Internet’s European future.

The County Council was aware of the feeble beams of the escalator – New Technology

       

An escalator at the station Östermalmstorg opened like a trapdoor February 14 this year. The woman who had just stepped on fell and pinned.

The escalator, which was manufactured by Asea in the 1960s, was equipped with two safety systems. Yet it stopped not until a passerby pushed the emergency button.

Emergency services worked for a long time to dislodge the woman, who risked losing his leg. Since then, she has undergone several operations.

New technology has taken note of two consultant reports on the accident that the County Council’s traffic management ordered. The company Dekra has conducted a technical investigation of the accident, while Inter Fleet has studied the organization and procedures. Both investigations show that the accident could have been prevented.

Eight days before the accident, on February 6, Dekra had blown the whistle on that particular type of the escalator. The company had investigated another escalator of the same model at Östermalmstorg who had suffered repeated errors.

“The preliminary findings of serious concern to us then step leg (walking beam) breaks down quickly at a seemingly limited load. (…) We recommend that you as facility operator takes escalators with this design stages leg and / or materials from operation, “wrote Dekra.

Five days later, a meeting was held on traffic management. It was the last chance to prevent the accident, noting the Inter Fleet afterwards. Instead it was decided to keep the escalator continues to run, but with extra supervision. In the meeting notes recorded that Dekra was with the decision. In retrospect mean Dekra it never sued.

On 14 February, the accident occurred and the woman was pinned.

Deputy Head of the Traffic Department, Frederick Cavalli-Björkman, was one of the participants in the meeting.

– With hindsight we would of course have turned off. But we understood that it was not so serious. It is a mistake we have made, he said.

Can a consultant be clearer than writing that he is concerned about and recommend a shutdown?

– No, but after that we had the meeting when we discussed the matter. But it is clear that we have made a number of judgments that were not okay, says Fredrik Cavalli-Björkman.

After the accident, Dekra assigned to investigate what caused it. The result shows that the escalator had both in material and workmanship. The steps have various types of beams, and two of the types substandard.

A beam-type in the form of U-profiles were tested and approved in 2007 but according to Dekra quality deficiencies. Among other things, there are pores in the casting that weaken the structure.

Unfortunately it is with lattice beams. They are not tested by any standard and can withstand about half as much cargo as U-profiles.

Both beam types can rupture of the a traveler running or jumping on the ladder. The material is brittle and flaws therefore quickly without deformation, which is very risky in an escalator.

The direct cause of the accident is under Dekra to a beam burst about 15 steps below the accident stage. It is likely that it goes down, when someone jumped or ran down the stairs.

– It is sufficient that any sufficiently large adult stomps to the hard right on this model, says Bernt Åke Johansson, accident investigators at Dekra.

Crime and accidents in older Asea escalators have been common. Peter Andersson, DEKRA mission leader, considers that the problems should have been caught and corrected before.

After the accident, traffic management put in extra beams and wheel sensors in steps of 39 old Asea stairs. Thereby the steps are not able to open like a trapdoor.
