A team of physicists have provided what has been described by the journal Nature as the "clearest evidence yet" that our universe is a hologram.

The new research could help reconcile one of modern physics' most enduring problems : the apparent inconsistencies between the different models of the universe as explained by quantum physics and Einstein's theory of gravity.

The two new scientific papers are the culmination of years' work led by Yoshifumi Hyakutake of Ibaraki University in Japan, and deal with hypothetical calculations of the energies of black holes in different universes.

The idea of the universe existing as a 'hologram' doesn't refer to a Matrix-like illusion, but the theory that the three dimensions we perceive are actually just "painted" onto the cosmological horizon - the boundary of the known universe.

If this sounds paradoxical, try to imagine a holographic picture that changes as you move it. Although the picture is two dimensional, observing it from different locations creates the illusion that it is 3D.

This model of the universe helps explain some inconsistencies between general relativity (Einstein's theory) and quantum physics. Although Einstein's work underpins much of modern physics, at certain extremes (such as in the middle of a black hole) the principles he outlined break down and the laws of quantum physics take over.

The traditional method of reconciling these two models has come from the 1997 work of theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena, whose ideas built upon string theory. This is one of the most well respected 'theories of everything' (Stephen Hawking is a fan) and it posits that one-dimensional vibrating objects known as 'strings' are the elementary particles of the universe.

Maldacena has welcomed the new research by Hyakutake and his team, telling the journal Nature that the findings are "an interesting way to test many ideas in quantum gravity and string theory."

Leonard Susskind, a theoretical physicist regarded as one of the fathers of string theory, added that the work by the Japanese team "numerically confirmed, perhaps for the first time, something we were fairly sure had to be true, but was still a conjecture."

Thing like this, we can see only in futuristical films or programs, but now - it's our reality. Nasa announced that they were exploring the technology, but now a Spanish start-up is looking to bring the same experience to your kitchen in 2014.

The printing apparatus is loaded with any mixture of choice (dough, for example) and then it builds up the food layer by layer.

However, it does seem that 3D printing food has its own natural territory - areas of cuisine where it's more efficient than human hands. Well, not at Foodini's current prices, but given the industry's current pace of innovation, we might not have too long to wait.

South Korea has suggested online gamingshould be categorised alongside gambling, drugs and alcohol as a potentially 'anti-social' addiction under proposals for a law currently being considered by parliament. Law from 2011 include rule , that gamers under the 16, that playing between midnight and dawn will be banned. But cybersport become a one of main sports in Korea. Goverment reported125,000 young people aged 10-19 required treatment for excessive online gaming or were 'at risk' of addiction.

South Korea has suggested online gamingshould be categorised alongside gambling, drugs and alcohol as a potentially 'anti-social' addiction under proposals for a law currently being considered by parliament.

The legislation is supported by 14 of the ruling party law makers and comes after a law was passed in 2011 banning anyone under the age of 16 playing online games between midnight and dawn. This law is currently being challenged at South Korea's constitutional court.

It would include limiting gaming advertising and building a fund to beat addiction by taking one per cent of the gaming industry's revenue.

Online gaming has become a significant export industry in South Korea. In 2012, "MapleStory" and other online game titles earned more cash from abroad for South Korea than the YouTube sensation "Gangnam Style," K-pop music, movies and other cultural exports combined.

"There is a huge prejudice that gaming is harmful," said Lee Byung-chan, an attorney involved in the Constitutional Court case. "Games are as harmful as alcohol, drugs and gambling, that's the prejudice," Lee told The Associated Press.

In a study looking at internet gaming addiction in 2011, the South Korean government reported125,000 young people aged 10-19 required treatment for excessive online gaming or were 'at risk' of addiction.

However, gaming companies have argued such a bill would be a death sentence for the industry. In a statement, the Korea Internet and Digital Entertainment Association, which represents game companies said: "The 100,000 people employed in the game industry are not drugmakers."

A group of Dutch engineers from the Delft University of Technology have created the world's first Micro Air Vehicle that can fly in any surroundings and automatically avoid obstacles.

Micro Air Vehicles are a specific class of aerial drones nearer in size to insects than airplanes, and the DelFly Explorer is no exception - weighing just 20 grams, or as much as four sheets of A4 paper.

The Explorer's real innovation though is its unique sensory array; a tiny system that contains two cameras and a computer that allows the bot to navigate autonomously using bincoluar vision. This miniscule setup weighs just four grams.

All the computing power to keep the Explorer flyer happens on-board - there's no need for the craft to be controlled, and it can take-off by itself, maintain a height and avoiding obstacles for the nine minutes of its battery life.

Other aerial drones are capable of the same feats - stable and autonomous flight - but weigh as much as 50 times more than the Explorer. With this lighter weight comes lower production costs and the ability to be deployed safely in environments with humans.

The team behind the DelFly have imagined a range of uses for their new bots, ranging from the practical (detecting ripe fruit in greenhouses or mapping abandoned buildings) to the whimsical (streaming live video footage at a gig or masquerading as fairies at a theme park).

Google is predicting a generation of screenless computing devices that rely on voice recognition, a senior engineer has said, emphasising that the company encrypts users' audio data to the same standard as text-based information.

Scott Huffman, senior engineering director at Google, said the company has seen dramatic growth of voice search and recognition tools, with recent improvements encouraging more people to start adopting the tools.

"We are looking to a future where we have a whole variety of devices," he told the Guardian. "We have a super computer in our pockets, but also one in our watch, one in our glasses, maybe on our lapel as well as our laptop. Some of those have a screen and a keyboard but some won't, and we're seeing dramatic growth in the numbers of people interacting through voice recognition."

Following the revelations about the extent of surveillance, the implications of ubiquitous microphones could raise concerns about even greater potential for intrusion into our private lives. Following the revelations, Google was the first major consumer web company to implement an encryption technique know as ' perfect forward secrecy', which adds an extra level of security around the transmission of user data.

That standard of encryption will also apply to audio, Huffman emphasised. "Encryption applies to any data flowing between Google's data centres," he said.
"OK Google..." now extended to desktop voice search
In the US, Google has already launched a extensive pilot project for Glass, its wearable computing project which offers basic directions, photos and video and basic web searches mostly through voice commands.

Google is also expanding voice controls on its mobile software Android, which already accounts for around 60% of the world's smartphones equivalent to one billion devices worldwide, as well as desktop machines. It has introduced the universal command "OK, Google..." which triggers a voice command across devices, and can access diary reminders, maps, SMS and other tools. There is also a nutrition check, which will search calorific information for food.

Google won't give the proportion of users who use voice controls regularly on their Android devices, but figures suggest around 3% of the US population uses them daily. More than half the population of the US own a smartphone with voice capability and two thirds of those are aware of voice controls. Just under half of those people use voice more than once each month and one in five use it daily, a Google spokesperson said.

Huffman, who has worked on mobile search for five of his eight years at Google, admitted that some web users might not be aware that Google even can be given voice instructions. He said there is an obvious use case around driving, where voice commands will remove the temptation to text or check email while driving.

"It's a cultural thing, getting used to a technology like this, but there will be a whole set of devices built around it," he said. "Two to three years ago we crossed the line from a demo to a real product, so now at least most of the time it can understand what I say. We're still work on the recognition of accents, and there are a litany of problems. But when it works, it is magic."

Apple has sparked rumours that they are investing in 4K display screens after accidentally listing a 4K monitor for sale online.

The company briefly posted a Sharp 4K monitor for sale on its European online stores, then later removed it.

At 32 inches, the IGZO screen has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels.

It was listed at £3,499, and was then removed on Sunday evening.

The device description said: "The Sharp PN-K321 monitor is ideal for professional applications where it's essential to view detailed information displayed with precision.

"This super-high resolution display allows you to view the content of four full HD screens on a single seamless display."

Apple until now has not directly sold a 4K display, but could ultimately add 4K capabilities to its Thunderbolt Display monitor, which displays images at 2560 by 1440 pixels.

It's new Retina MacBook Pros are able to support a 4K monitor and the upcoming Mac Pro can handle three 4K displays.

The new Mac Pro has fueled speculation that Apple will have to meet the need from professionals for an ultra-high-resolution display.

As England's top referee, Howard Webb is used to making crucial calls - from awarding a controversial penalty to dealing out a debatable red card - and copping for the consequences from players, managers, fans and pundits alike.

But from the start of next season, the biggest decision of all will be taken out of his hands - when the Premier League becomes the world's first domestic league to use goal-line technology to decide if a goal has been scored.

Webb has "100% confidence" in the Hawk-Eye system which will be used - and says he and his fellow officials will welcome it.

Media playback is not supported on this device

Whether it will make his life any easier remains to be seen but the 42-year-old - who took charge of the 2010 Fifa World Cup final - is confident that life as a whistler could not get any better.

From his take on the part that further technology can play in the game to the tweaks in the offside rule and how well he thinks the Football Association's 'Respect' campaign is working, Webb spoke to BBC Sport about the different aspects of refereeing and how English officials have prepared for the changes taking place next season.

HOWARD WEBB ON NEW TECHNOLOGY...

Do you welcome the introduction of goal-line technology into the Premier League?

If you speak to any Premier League referees, we would all say we welcome it, because it means we've got a better chance of making an accurate call on the biggest decision of all, which is whether a goal has been scored or not.

Are you confident it will be reliable?

From what I know the system has been extensively tested and I have no reason to think it won't be reliable.

I've not used Hawk-Eye so cannot pass comment but I have got 100% confidence in the people who have done testing on it and the reputation of the company is really strong.

What are your experiences with technology?

I used the GoalControl system that Fifa have adopted in the summer in the Confederations Cup.

That worked and was a very similar system to how Hawk-Eye works.

From what I could see, GoalControl was totally reliable. There wasn't a situation where there was a really marginal call but, every time a goal was scored, the system worked.

Every time there was a penalty scored in the penalty shootout between Spain and Italy in the semi-final that I refereed, the signal went off.

Every time the ball flashed just wide into the side netting, the system didn't indicate a goal.

What is GoalControl like to use as a referee?

The best thing about it from a referee's point of view is that it is instant.

Immediately it vibrates, it comes up with the word goal and it continues for 10 seconds, so there is no mistaking that a goal has been scored.

Could technology help referees with other decisions, like penalties or other fouls?

With goal-line technology, you are talking about matter of fact, you are talking about yes or no - goal or no goal.

And if a system can be brought in like Hawk-Eye that tells us whether it is a foul or not, then why would we not want it? But we are talking about a very different scenario.

All I know is that I love the game the way it is played, I love the high tempo of the game. I don't like making mistakes at all, I try to be as accurate as I can be.

We have worked hard to try to learn and develop and improve as referees in this country, but I fear that the use of technology for anything other than just the goal-line would change the basic way the game is played and we need to be careful.

HOWARD WEBB ON RESPECT...

Is the Respect programme working?

The Respect programme

Launched in 2008 in response to concerns at deteriorating behaviour at all levels of football.

Five years on, dissent cautions (in 2012-13) are down by 13% in all affiliated football, all cautions are down by 10%, all dismissals down by 10% and all dismissals are down by 9%.

Number of assaults on referees is down from 618 (2010-11) to 528 (11-12) and 491 (2012-13).

Since 2008, the FA has recruited and retained 5,000 referees and has a total of more than 27,000

Yes. Things are much better than they were. Isolated Premier League games get a lot of headlines but the vast amount of games pass by without incident and don't make news, because they are not newsworthy.

We are quite a few years down the road now with the FA's 'Respect' initiative and the Premier League's 'get on with the game' campaign.

The aim was to change the culture - attitude and behaviour - towards match officials in football.

We have got the messages across and they have become part of the psyche of the game, at every level.

Is the situation really better than before?

The figures for the Respect programme have never been better.

Abuse of match officials is abusing the game and is not acceptable but, whilst there might be a small number of people that think that is still acceptable to do it, most people in football - your average player, coach or fan - have taken on board the message, know it is not acceptable and play the game the right way.

What next for the Respect campaign?

We need to continue to make sure that any examples of referees not being treated in the right way or subject to abuse in any way then that needs to be clamped down on absolutely severely.

From my point of view, football is a positive experience and when I speak to most referees they have the same experience.

At grass-roots level, referee recruitment and retention rates are up and most people I speak to say they love their refereeing, enjoy getting out of bed on a Sunday morning to do a game, whether it be in pub football, kid's football or women's football.

What is the new 'interfering' ruling?

An amendment to what assistant referees must take into consideration when deciding whether an attacking player is 'interfering with an opponent' or 'gaining an advantage'.

Webb says: "The change just revolves around how players who challenge for the ball are now penalised in terms of interfering with an opponent.

"So if you are just stood somewhere nearby but not challenging for the ball [when it is played through] and not challenging the opponent, then the assistant referee will not intervene and won't penalise you.

"It is when the player challenges for the ball, that's when they are going to be penalised."
Howard Webb was speaking at a Referees' Association and Football Association match official 'masterclass' at Hinckley FC which was arranged as part of the FA's 150th anniversary celebrations. The BBC's Football Focus programme will feature this event on a date yet to be scheduled.
If they didn't, they wouldn't continue doing so.

HOWARD WEBB ON RULE CHANGES...

Is everyone ready for the tweak to the offside rule?

We are well prepared for any rule changes made during the summer and we make sure we liaise with the clubs as well.

We have orientation visits and we talk through any changes. We referees are not going into the new season fully aware of what the change might be while players don't know so suddenly it's a big surprise to them.

We make sure they are aware too - both lines of communication are open and are strong as well.

We have two visits into clubs every season - one pre-season, one mid-season, so the relationship is strong.

People in the world seem to think there is a bit of a big divide between match officials and players and clubs but it is not like that at all, we have a strong relationship and speak on a regular basis and we are there to assist each other.
