I designed and built this near-field optical microscope- first version for Actoprobe LLC. The microscope is a combination of confocal and AFM. The measured resolution of the microscope is about 20nm. I will build more version of it in near future.
This is a new product of Actoprobe LLC: Scanning Laser Confocal Microscope. I designed and built the microscope to investigate the defects and laser burn patterns on the mirror and LBO crystal surfaces. The microscope can also be used for bio-imaging.

Az IKT-val támogatott probléma-alapú tanulás és lehetőségei az idegennyelv ta...Balázs Czékmán
A diszciplína-alapú, lexikális tudás átadását előtérbe helyező oktatási megközelítésen túl egyre nagyobb igény mutatkozik olyan hatékony tanulásszervezési módokra, melyek a munkaerőpiacon elvárt készségek és képességek elsajátítását biztosítani tudják. A munkaerőpiaci elvárásokhoz hasonlóképpen a nemzetközi tanulói teljesítménymérések (PISA, TIMMS) is egyre inkább megkövetelik a szaktárgyi ismereteken túlmutató kompetenciákat, ahogyan az IKT iskolai integrációja által biztosított innovatív lehetőségek is akkor lehetnek sikeresek, ha megfelelő pedagógiai koncepció társul hozzájuk (Hense et al., 2003). A hatékony tanulásszervezési módok egyike lehet a probléma-alapú tanulás (problem-based learning – PBL), ahol a diákok kiscsoportokban, valós életből vett problémákon alapuló feladatokon dolgoznak (Molnár, 2004). A PBL alkalmazásával számos készség fejleszthető, továbbá a tanulási attitűdre is hatást gyakorolhat. A számítógép alkalmazása kitágíthatja a lehetőségeket és megjelenhet az IKT-val támogatott PBL. Kutatások is megerősítik, hogy az IKT-val segített tanulási környezetben történő problémamegoldás pozitívan befolyásolja a diákok teljesítményét és tanulási folyamatát (Molnár, 2004). A probléma-alapú oktatás alkalmazása az idegennyelv tanítása során pozitív eredményeket mutat, a PBL-es tanulók kevesebb instrukcióval képesek tanulni, valamint íráskészségükben is választékosabbak (Othman–Shah, 2013). Az IKT alkalmazásával a diákok izgalmasabb és tartalmasabb tanulásról számoltak be angolórákon, valamint motiváltabbakká váltak az angol nyelv használatára (Marwan, 2015).
Előadásunkban egyrészt a probléma-alapú oktatás során alkalmazható IKT eszközöket kívánjuk bemutatni, melyek mindegyike az idegennyelv tanításában is használható. Az összegyűjtött megoldások segítséget nyújthatnak a projekttervezés, a csoportalakítás, a kommunikáció, az információgyűjtés és a kollaboráció során, valamint támogatják projekttermék összeállítását és végül az értékelést (például online szóasszociációs módszerrel). Előadásunkban másrészt jó gyakorlatok ismertetésével kívánjuk az IKT-val támogatott PBL előnyeit és kihívásait bemutatni; ennek érdekében három különböző projektet ismertetünk, melyek általános iskolában, nyelviskolában és a felsőoktatásban kerültek lebonyolításra.

An automated and user-friendly optical tweezers for biomolecular investigations; a versatile, automated, fast, precise and user friendly optical tweezers capable of doing verity of biomolecular experiments.
In one of the DNA-sequencing experiments based on change in pH difference due to release of proton per nuceotide added to DNA. There was considerable pH change in pH due to various factors out of which one was due to the pH-sensor position inside the well; sensor kept stable vs sensor moving in the well in circular motion gives different result. So the pH rocker is designed to simulate the hand motion for the sensor and stabilize the results.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Tip-enhanced Near-field Optical Microscope
1. Tip-enhanced Near-field Optical Microscope
I designed and built this system:
A Confocal Microscope
combined with Bruker Innova
AFM working as Tip-enhanced
Near-field Optical Microscope.
This was the first version. I am
building many versions of it.
AFM resolution ~ 1nm
Confocal ~ 1.3 µm (measured)
at 1.3µm wavelength, .4NA
objective and 1AU aperture
TENOM ~ 20nm (measured)
3. Acto-S Confocal Microscope
Acto-S is a confocal microscope
developed to work with any AFM
but it could be used without AFM.
In the present system it could be
used by itself to produce confocal
images using external detector
and AFM hardware - software (by
routing detector signal through
AFM hardware) or with AFM to
produce confocal images with
AFM images.
It could also be used for PL and
spectral imaging. In this system
an IR version of Acto-S was used
with 1.3µm laser.
4. TENOM
TENOM was achieved by top
illumination and collection of AU
coated Si probe-tip in contact mode.
The system could produce AFM and
near-filed images side by side in a
single scan with near filed resolution
up to 20nm.
CMOS camera W/O IR filter
3D Stage with super stability
Flexible adapter for easy slide
removal (microscope)
5. Some Results
AFM Near-field Confocal
The sample under test was a reference target for AFM
calibration: 10µm pitch with 200nm depth. Images-
512X512
7. Software-IR Camera (by me)
I wrote this software. It is used for
IR laser spot alignment with
probe-tip for optimum near-field
enhancement.
8. Software-IR Laser Control (by me)
Alignment is very crucial for tip
enhancement. To facilitate an
easy alignment of laser spot
with tip I wrote this laser
control software which could
control the laser in CW or
pulse mode with any desired
duty cycle.
