THE FUTURE OF SMARTPHONES IS IN 2MM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl-qygUEE2c

The latest in mobile devices is PaperPhone, a mobile flexible as a sheet of paper.

Maked by researchers of Queen's University in Ontario (Canada), to select the operating system options we have to turn various regions of the screen, and navigate throught the menú optinons.

The new interactive gadget does everything that classic smart-phone can do, calls, store music, store electronic books. With the peculiarity that the display is a 9.5-inch flexible display with electronic ink (e-ink ), which conforms to the size of our pocket.

The display is equipped with sensors that recognize the location of each action. The device can be configured to log specific types of fold, so only perform actions with every movement.


PaperPhone heralds a new generation of super lightweight, thin and flexible, they do not consume power while the user is using.
The team will announce its 'PaperPhone' on 10 May at the Association for Computing Machinery in Vancouver.


This technologie will be catched by Apple , Microsoft, an other brands, and maybe in three or five years the mobile phones will be no larger than 2 mm.

The problem that I see in that devices is the incompatibility with cameras, or in-put earphones. I think that the matter of the camera doesn't have solution , but the earphones could be work through bluetooth, or Wi-Fi.

The LunaTik and the TikTok

Hi all, after a pause time I'm here again to tell you about the latest in technology.

Today I will talk about the "Luna Tik" and and the "TikTok. "

Two straps to convert the iPod Nano in a wristwatch. It seems that many people liked the concept at a press conference that Apple and the idea did not take long to reach the sweet figure of a million dollars for the project became a reality. Now we have received the news that Luna Tik TikTok and will be available at the Apple Store, which means that not only the idea was good, but sales are going to be really interesting for the push which is supported by Apple.

Personally I recommend using one of these bracelets for a more useful the iPod Nano, also, the iPod does not weigh practically nothing, so it will be even lighter than a Rolex and more than a Trolex.

I encourage you to continue commenting. Thank you very much.

I'M A CAM , SPIDER-CAM

"SpiderCam, SpiderCam,

Does whatever a spider can..."



In this century a new cam has entered in the world of entertaiment the "Spidercam".

The Spidercam is a system which enables film and television cameras to move both vertically and horizontally over a predetermined area, typically the playing field of a sporting event such as a football field or a tennis court.

That camera records awesome zeniths movements, that no one more can. It's ordinary used in sports and shows with a big studio set. The camera has a lot of utilities, can film new movements which reveals new manners to view the shows.

The actions that can shoot Spidercam other cameras can not shoot. For example, in soccer, when someone do a fault that the other cams doesn't film, with the recordings of the Spidercam we can see this details.

In the next video we can view a recent Match of Real Madrid Vs Barcelona and the recordings of an Spidercam.

We can see that the zooms and the zenith movements are amazing!

This camera was used to film Spider-Man , because the movements that can get in the air simulates the jumps of the Super-hero.

I think that the use of this cam, becomes a new manner to film. When the 3D technology and an Spidercam works together, the effect it's spectacular.

The first time I saw the recordings of an Spidercam, I thought that was a computered visual effect, or a extracted scene of a videogame.

What's your opinion?? Comment under The post!! Thanx!

A little suggestion

I suggest this video to where they can think up new technologies. Is a video that some friends have made for a contest (Fatima 2011) is fine. It's a shame they had not won, they finished second.
Well. I do not think that things can go so far as we proposed in Daumar (the institution that has made this documentary).

But it would be nice if we had to get to where we propose to solve a problem that young people today such as technology.

Having and wanting more are two verbs or actions that consistently make us prisoners. I think it's an addiction. It's something that ... it goes too far. First it was mobile. Later there was to be replaced because it was obsolete. Play Station arrived and the same, the computer ... Pentium I, II, III, IV and so on. Now if you're not Black, you're out. If you have iPhone, you're a rolling stone, if your computer weighs over 2 kilos are in the stone age, if you have 3D screen for the PS3 or the Wii 2.6 your life is worthless, if your car is a Seat Ibiza, prepare to be the laughing stock of Barcelona, and not speak to you if you have a Cinquecento.

In short way, whenever we have more badly. To see what we can do. I propose to give me solutions through comments to improve this situation that binds and enslaves the population.

Google Music It's Almost ready!

Google Music has been a long time in the making, and it now appears that the streaming service is close to being ready for prime time. There's only one thing missing: the music.

Currently, the service is at the point where employees are being asked to use it and test it out, which is one of the last steps before something is released to the public. The one main missing element, however, is content from the major labels. This shouldn't be an insurmountable roadblock, however, as labels are very excited to have a major competitor to Apple's iTunes, and Google is just the ticket.

The service would allow users to stream tunes to their computers or any other web-connected device, either from Google's supply or from their own, which could be uploaded to Google's servers. So the whole thing would be cloud based, which would be a different approach from Apple's download model. Sounds interesting! Now they just need to get the labels on board and get this thing out there.

Could be announced at the conference for developers Google I / O to be held next April.

I think that Google needs to get an style change because his applications have a lot of versatility but his applications don't have a good stuff, or at least more good than Spotify or Firefox Apps.

When the application becomes available I will try, and I'll coment to you in this Blog!!!

Good weekend , and Good fool's Day!

Google Music It's Almost ready!
