SKA - Square Kilometre Array for Africa

South Africa reaches for the stars with SKA

It is official. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be mainly hosted in South Africa. Two of the three receiver components will be built in Africa and the third one in Australia. The project promises to transform the Karoo into the most buzzing hub of information and communication technology in the world. It is expected to spur economic growth in Southern Africa. 

Science and Technology Minister, Naledi Pandor, hailed the decision as an acknowledgement of the sterling work by the SKA project team.

A reflection of the times! What are QR codes and how can they help your business? 

Quick Response codes (QR codes) are the trademark for a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code) first designed for the automotive industry. More recently, the system has become popular outside the industry due to its fast readability and large storage and sharing capacity compared to standard barcodes. The code consists of black modules (square dots) arranged in a square pattern on a white background. The information encoded can be made up of virtually any kind of data. 

QR codes have in recent years become common in consumer advertising, marketing and packaging because of the access to smartphones and other scanning devices.
