Amazing Machines!
The deepest diving submarine
The Japanese research submarine Shinkai 6500
can dive deeper than any other submarine. On
August 11, 1989, it went down to a depth of
6,526 meters beneath the ocean's surface. The
submarine is 9.5 meters long, about the size
of a bus and can take up to three. people. It is
used for ocean research all over the world.
The world's most intelligent vacuum cleaner
The iRobot vacuum cleaner can clean your floor by itself.
It has computers to help it see and hear, so it can detect
walls and stairs. It even knows which part of the floor is
dirtiest. It cleans the floor in three stages. First, it picks
up dirt and pet hair, then it puts them into a special bin.
Finally, the machine cleans the air, making the room
fresher and healthier!
The most useful television
The Viera is the name of the world's only digital entertainment device that can go underwater. It is
made and sold in Japan. You can listen to your favorite music, or even watch a movie, all from the
comfort of your bathtub. And the battery lasts over five hours if you're planning to spend a long time
bathing. You can even use headphones with it-all you'll need is to find a pair that is waterproof!
The smartest monitor
The Japanese company Eizo Nanao has invented a very special computer monitor, called the
FlexScan monitor. The FlexScan monitor can stand up to 23 centimeters high, and it can almost
180 degrees left or right. It weighs only 4.3 kilograms. What's more, it can help save electricity.
It senses when you have left your computer and turns itself off when you've been gone for more
than 40 seconds. When you come back, it knows to turns itself back on!
The smallest motorcycle
A Swedish man named Tom Wiberg built the world's smallest
motorcycle that can be ridden by a person. He calls it the
Small Toe. The front wheel is only 1.6 centimeters wide, and
the back wheel is 2.2 centimeters wide. The rider sits barely
7 centimeters above the ground. In 2003, Wiberg rode his
machine for more than ten meters and set a new Guinness
World Record for the smallest rideable motorcycle ever built.
