Microsoft Corp. today announced an improved version of Microsoft?> Robotics Studio of its robotics application development toolkit. The new Microsoft Robotics Studio 1.5 adds support for Window?p> Embedded CE 6.0 and Windows Mobi?up> 6, which allows developers to more easily deploy advanced scenarios and software applications on embedded platforms of a wider variety and lower cost.

The update includes a new version Concurrency and Coordination Runtime/b>. The Concurrency and Coordination Runtime allows applications to dynamically scale on mult-processor / multi-core machines.

Microsoft Robotics Studio 1.5 includes improvements to its visual programming language and 3-D real-world-physics-based visual simulation environment, built on the AGEIA Technologies Inc.-based PhysX engine. New services have also been added, including support for vision and speech recognition, expanded documentation and a new editor that makes it easier to configure and target software services for robotics platforms.Download/b> : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;DisplayLang=en

Sumo Competition for Microsoft Robotics Studio: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;DisplayLang=en

Teams competing in RoboCup 2007, an international robotics competition, experienced these improvements firsthand by participating in a Microsoft-sponsored tournament of simulated soccer matches. Powering the competition was a new robot soccer simulation, which includes a 3-D simulated soccer field and scoring services, as well as support that enables different simulated robots to be configured as players. The services are also available to non-Robocup participants at http://www.microsoft.com/robotics. A compatible simulated robot player called robuDOG, from Robosoft, is also available for download from the Robosoft Web site at http://www.robosoft.com, enabling contestants to play virtual soccer with four-legged robots in a realistic 3-D environment. Robosoft also previewed its hardware-based robuDOG robot, and the services used in simulation can be deployed directly on this new robot. The soccer simulation featured at RoboCup 2007 joins a robot sumo simulation also released today, which offers participants an opportunity to create and program simulated robots in a sumo wrestling competition.

    • Microsoft 365 will soon disable outdated authentication protocols for file access

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft 365 will soon disable outdated authentication protocols for file access by Usama Jawad On a fairly regular basis, Microsoft disables outdated protocols that are used to access its services. In the past few years, the company has deprecated Basic Auth in Exchange Online and cut access to Outlook for third-party apps relying on this protocol. Now, it has decided to get rid of old authentication protocols for file access across Microsoft 365 services. As reported by Bleeping Computer, Microsoft has posted a message on its Microsoft 365 Admin Center. Starting from mid-July 2025, the company will begin disabling legacy authentication protocols used to access files across Microsoft 365 and Office apps, SharePoint, and OneDrive. Essentially, applications or services which use the Relying Party Suite (RPS) or FrontPage Remote Procedure Call (FPRPC) will to perform browser-based authentication to perform open operations on Office files will no longer be able to do so. As expected, this is primarily being done to improve the cybersecurity posture of various services. Microsoft states that RPS can be brute-forced and phished with relative ease as it is fairly outdated. Similarly, FPRPC is typically used for remote web page authoring and it is susceptible to exploitation through various vulnerabilities too. As such, both of these protocols will be disabled by default starting from mid-July 2025, with the rollout of this change targeting completion by August 2025. The Redmond tech giant will update the protocol baseline by default without mandating any licensing changes for customers. In addition, once these modifications are rolled out, Microsoft 365 will require admin consent to get third-party access to files and sites. IT admins can view the guidance available here to configure admin consent workflows. Microsoft says that these changes align with the principles of its Secure Future Initiative (SFI). Earlier today, it announced the rollout of improved security defaults for Windows 365 citing the same reasons too.

      It does and it can... I took an i3 board and upgraded it to my FX8350... no issues, just put in new drivers over the top that Windows didn't. Not the issue for me, (though I eventually did do a new install from 23H2 to 24H2)... I was on 22H2 at the time. The issue is activation. You may get hit with having to activate again.
