iPhone 6


The I phone is at its thinest and largest.
The more advanced display meant pushing the edge of design. From the seamless transition of the glass and metal to the streamlined profile, every detail was carefully considered to enhance your experience.

Not just a bigger display but a better display.
The I phone 6 has a bigger Multi-Touch display with brilliant colors and higher contrast at even wider viewing angles. 

Hugely Powerful and Enormously efficient.
The I Phone 6 built on a 64-bit desktop architecture, the new A8 chip delivers more powerful, even while driving a larger display. The M8 motion coprocessor efficiently gathers data from advanced sensors and a new barometer. It also has increased battery life. So you can do more for a longer period of time.

The camera that changed photos now does the same for video.
More people take more photos with iPhone than with any other camera. And now the iSight camera has a new sensor with Focus Pixels and new video features, like 1080 HD at 60 fps, slo-mo at 240 fps, and time-lapse video mode.

Faster wireless. Far and Wide.
iPhone 6 has faster LTE download speeds, and it supports more LTE bands than another smartphone so you can roam in more places. And connect to the Wi-Fi, you’ll get up to 3x faster speeds.

Security is right at your fingertip.
The breakthrough Tough ID technology lets you securely access your iPhone with the perfect password: your finger tips. You can also approve purchases from iTunes, iBooks, and the App Store without having to enter your password.

Its your wallet. But without the wallet.
Apple completely rethought how you pay to make shopping easy, secure, and private. Apple Pay combines the convenience and security of Touch ID and passbook with NFC technology. SO you can use iPhone 6 to pay in stores and within apps with a single touch.

The biggest iOS release ever.
iOS 8 is the world’s most advanced mobile operating system. And with incredible new capabilities and features designed to make the most of larger

Upcoming Military Technology


A drone that can be controlled by a soldier’s mind

University researchers in Texas say they are designing a new type of drone – one that could be controlled simply and only with a soldier’s mind.

What that means is that the soldier can command “move left” and “move right”

"The brainwaves contain signatures for each person, but there are some common features from person to person. There's a high degree of similarity between imagining or thinking of movement as compared with actually moving that part of the body."
Unlike UTSA, He's work at the University of Minnesota is designed to help paralyzed people one day be able to operate electronics, robotic arms or wheel chairs using only their minds.

While the goal of controlling vehicles by way of the mind is still ways off, the hope is that by studying the brain signals and magnetic waves captured from graduate student Mauricio Merino, the researchers will be able link the activity to specific commands that can eventually be received by an advanced drone.

Once the drones are complete it will reduce the amount of supplies that the troops have to carry into combat zones

Examples: a soldier could direct a drone to fly over a hill to scout for enemies using his brain waves to give the command, and then receive the data in his helmet from the drone's camera immediately.

It is still a long way till it is complete.

UTSA is not the first university to work with brain-controlled drones, but it is the first to be researching the use of EEG for a military purpose.

So once all of this is done which will be very soon. We will be able to control drones  with a brain signal. It will help us a lot by having  less things to carry into combat zones.

Upcoming Phone Techolongy


Flexible phones

The first step is the galaxy round and G flex from Samsung.

In 2010 and 2011 both google approved phones launched the banana-like bends in their screens.

MATERIAL BENEFITS

In the future theses screens will be attached to a flexible bodies.

Eventually theses phones will be able to fold up like a pice of paper.

They will be stronger because they will not have the glass screens.

The screen will be replaced with plastic ones.

Its has been very hard to find a plastic to resemble glass.

ENTER OLED

OLED means organic light emitting diode which means that the thin layer of material that emits the light necessary for electronic picture.

Each pixel in an OLED display light itself rather than relying on a separate back light system.

OLED panels are far simpler, slimmer and more self-contained than LCD solutions.

Also the OLED panels can stand up to being bent.

Samsung came out with an OLED display called the Youm the display could be worked into an “S” shape.

POWER STRUGGLE

OLED screen can bend but the other vital internal components cannot.

But in 2011 the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology announced that it had developed a fully flexible RAM chip.

The Ram chip enables the reading, writing, and retention of data on a flexibility chip is essential to a fully flexible phone.

For the battery to be in the flexible form they need to be solid.

The solution has been to crate a solid or semi-solid battery.

Meanwhile LG Chem recently announced that it has produced cable battery that could be bent and even tied into a knot with out getting heated.

GIVE AND TAKE

So, given the break-throughs in these key technological areas, when will we see properly flexible phones in our shops? 
Industry insiders believe that it's less than two years away. "Canatu estimates (the) first fully foldable products will be in the market in 2015," claims a spokesperson for the company.
It's an estimate that appears to back-up the projections of the smartphone manufacturers themselves. According to a slide the company recently showed to investors, Samsung anticipates that its first bendable smartphone will be ready to go in 2014, while its first fully foldable smartphone will be on the market either towards the end of 2015 or the beginning of 2016.
And don't for one minute think that this is likely to be another dead end gimmick to file alongside phones with 3D displays. Dr Kinam Kim, president and CEO of Samsung Display, recently told analysts that "flexible display penetration could rapidly increase to 40% by 2018."
That's not to mention the technology's virtually guaranteed adoption by the automotive and fashion industries. Expect the cars of the near future to feature dramatically swooping digital displays that mould and form to the shape of a dashboard, and shirts that utilise paper thin and stretchable OLED displays to alter the colour and pattern of the 'fabric.'
It seems as if the future really is flexible, and it's going to be phones that lead this somewhat bendy-legged charge.
