This is a world-changing invention. The smoke alarm has saved perhaps hundreds of thousands of lives, worldwide. But smoke alarms don't prevent fires.
Bu dunyoni o'zgartiruvchi ixtiro. Yong'in havfidan ogohlantiruvchi signalizatsiya dunyo bo'ylab, ehtimol,yuz minglab insonlarning hayotini saqladi. Lekin bu signalizatsiyalar yong'inning oldini olmaydi.
Every year in the USA, over 20,000 are killed or injured with 350,000 home fires. And one of the main causes of all these fires is electricity. What if we could prevent electrical fires before they start? Well, a couple of friends and I figured out how to do this.
AQSHda har yili 20,000 dan ortiq odamlar 350,000 uy yong'ini sababli vafot etadi yoki yaralanadi. Bu yong'inlarning asosiy sabablaridan biri elektr tokidir. Agar Elektr tufayli bo'lgan yong'inlarni boshlanishidan avval to'xtata olsakchi? Xullas, bir necha do'stlarim va men bu ishni qanday amalga oshirishni o'ylab topdik.
So how does electricity ignite residential fires? Well it turns out that the main causes are faulty and misused appliances and electrical wiring. Our invention had to address all of these issues. So what about circuit breakers? Well, Thomas Edison invented the circuit breaker in 1879. This is 130-year-old technology, and this is a problem, because over 80 percent of all home electrical fires start below the safety threshold of circuit breakers. Hmmm ...
Elektr to'ki qanday qilib uy yong'inlarini keltirib chiqaradi? Asosiy sabablar bu noto'g'ri foydalanilgan va nosoz asboblar va elektr tarmoqlaridir. Bizning kashfiyotimiz bu muammolarning barchasiga yechim topishga harakat qiladi. Qisqa tutashuvdan saqlagichlarchi? Thomas Edison qisqa tutashuvdan saqlagichlarni 1879 yilda kashf qildi. Bu 130 yillik texnologiya. Muammo esa ayni shunda. Chunki 80 foizdan ortiq hamma uy elektr yong'inlari qisqa tutashuvdan saqlagichlarning havfsizlik chegarasidan quyida boshlanadi. Hmmm...
So we considered all of this. And we realized that electrical appliances must be able to communicate directly with the power receptacle itself. Any electrical device -- an appliance, an extension cord, whatever -- must be able to tell the power outlet, "Hey, power outlet, I'm drawing too much current. Shut me off now, before I start a fire." And the power outlet needs to be smart enough to do it. So here is what we did. We put a 10-cent digital transponder, a data tag, in the appliance plug. And we put an inexpensive, wireless data reader inside the receptacle so they could communicate. Now, every home electrical system becomes an intelligent network. The appliance's safe operating parameters are embedded into its plug. If too much current is flowing, the intelligent receptacle turns itself off, and prevents another fire from starting. We call this technology EFCI, Electrical Fault Circuit Interrupter.
Biz esa bularning hammasini nazarda tutdik. Bizning tushunishimizcha elektr asboblar elektr manbai bilan bevosita bog'lana olishi kerak. Har qanday elektr asbob, uzaytkichlar va boshqalar elektr tarmog'iga shunday deb ayta olishi shart: "Hey, elektr manbai, men juda ko'p elektr oqimini qabul qilyapman. Yong'in boshlashimdan avval meni o'chirib qo'y." Elektr manbai esa buni bajarishi uchun yetarli darajada aqlli bo'lishi kerak. Biz shunday qildik. Biz 10 sentli elektron javob beruvchini, yani malumot saqlovchi mikrosxemani, asbob ulangichiga qo'ydik. Ular gaplasha olishi uchun rozetkaning ichiga arzon, utkazgichsiz ma'lumot o'quvchi moslama qo'ydik. Endi, har bir uydagi elektr tuzumi ongli tarmoqqa aylanadi. Asbobning havfsiz bajaruvchi vazifalari vilkasiga o'rnatilgan. Agar elektr oqimi juda yuqori bulsa, ongli rozetka o'zini o'chiradi, va yong'inning oldini oladi. Biz bu texnologiyani EFCI, ya'ni Noto'g'ri Elektr Oqimini To'xtatuvchi deb ataymiz.
Okay, two more points. Every year in the USA, roughly 2,500 children are admitted to emergency rooms for shock and burn injuries related to electrical receptacles. And this is crazy. An intelligent receptacle prevents injuries because the power is always off, until an intelligent plug is detected. Simple.
Yana ikki maqsad. Har yili AQSHda deyarli 2500 bolalar favqulodda yordam ko'rsatish xonalariga elektr shnurlari sababli sodir bo'lgan shok va kuyishlar bilan keladi. Bu esa aqlga sig'maydi. Ongli elektr rozetkalari yaralanishning oldini oladi, chunki ongli vilka aniqlanguncha elektr har doim o'chirilgan bo'ladi. Oddiy.
Now, besides saving lives, perhaps the greatest benefit of intelligent power is in its energy savings. This invention will reduce global energy consumption by allowing remote control and automation of every outlet in every home and business. Now you can choose to reduce your home energy bill by automatically cycling heavy loads like air conditioners and heaters. Hotels and businesses can shut down unused rooms from a central location, or even a cell phone. There are 10 billion electrical outlets in North America alone. The potential energy savings is very, very significant.
Insonlarni hayotini saqlashdan tashqari aqlli elektrning eng katta foydasi elektr energiyasini saqlashidadir. Bu ixtiro dunyo bo'ylab elektr ishlatilishini har bir uy va korxonalarda tarmoqlarni avtomatizatsiyalash va uzoqdan bosqarish orqali kamaytiradi. Siz esa uyingizning elektr energiyasi uchun kelgan oylik hisobotni katta energiya talab qiladigan konditsioner va isitgicharni avtomatizatsiyalashtirib, kamaytirishingiz mumkin. Mehmonxona va korxonalar foydalanilmayotgan xonalarning elektr manbaini markaziy boshqarmadan yoki xattoki uyali aloqa telefoni orqali o'chirishi mumkin. Shimoliy Amerikaning o'zidagina 10 milliard elektr rozetkalari mavjud. Elektr energiyasini tejash juda muhim.
So far we've applied for 414 patent claims. Of those, 186 have been granted: 228 are in process. And I'm pleased to announce that just three weeks ago we received our first international recognition, the 2009 CES Innovation Award. So, to conclude, intelligent power can, globally, save thousands of lives, prevent tens of thousands of injuries, and eliminate tens of billions of dollars in property damage every single year, while significantly reducing global energy consumption. In the spirit of this year's TED Conference, we think this is a powerful, world-changing invention. And I'd like to thank Chris for this opportunity to unveil our technology with you, and soon the world. Thank you. (Applause)
Shu paytga qadar, biz 414 ta taklif yozdik. Shulardan 186 tasi bajarildi. 228 tasi ko'rib chiqilmoqda. Shuni quvonch bilan aytamanki, uch hafta avval bizni birinchi marta xalqaro tan olishdi, 2009 CES Kashfiyoti Mukofoti. Hullas, ongli energiya dunyo bo'ylab minglab insonlarning hayotini saqlay oladi, o'n minglab jarohatlarning oldini oladi va har yili 10 milliardlab dollarni mulkni qayta tiklashga sarflanishidan saqlaydi. Hamda, dunyo bo'ylab elektr energiyasini ishlatilish miqdorini kamaytiradi. Bu yilgi TED konferensiyasi munosabati bilan, bu ajoyib, dunyoni o'zgartiruvchi kashfiyot deb o'ylaymiz. Shu jumladan, Chrisga texnologiyamizni sizlarga va dunyoga namoyish qilishimiz imkoniyatini bergani uchun rahmat aytaman. Rahmat. (Qarsaklar)
