Concept Spider Computer

What can say about this concept? Spider Computer, a portable device that relies on a projected screen and laser keyboard to offer you a ready computer on the go. That’s why he has three thin legs like a spider. When they are hidden, the device becomes a mobile phone. It can be simply put in your pocket. And when the legs are deployed, the device can easily be placed on a flat surface. This will be the computer. The mirror head opens, and the projection is directed towards the table surface or a wall. Digital correction compensates for angular differences in projection versus surface. Circular LCD display with graphic interface. Working prototype was made for technology, user studies and research.

Futuristic iPad to flaunt bezel free screens

Futuristic iPad Concept

Advancement in technology has made it possible to reduce the size of computers from big box like structures to slender notebooks. Adding to this list is this futuristic concept created by Aatma Studio for the upcoming iPad design. The most interesting part about the device is its bezel-free structure that could be attached to another iPad through internal magnets. The two attached screens then interact and work like a single screen through NFC (Near Field Communication).

The iPad would showcase latest display technology i.e. holographic display that has the ability to offer 3D effect devoid of any special glasses and without harming human eyes. It also features new interface for interaction purpose. The talks about creating bezel-free handsets and tables have hyped the market for a while now, but as such no company has made any practical move towards this direction yet. And like always Apple once again is expected to amaze the world with its marvelous creation. 

The main concern is the feebleness of its bezel-free screen as device won’t have any protection against its screen. Apple has been researching on magnets for a while now and the idea of using internal magnets to connect iPads to form a surface like interface seems to be really impressive. Another concern may arise because of the extra battery consumption for supporting hologram unit and projector part and therefore there is a probability of using solar power to juice up the futuristic tablet.

Google Street View Is Coming to the Great Barrier Reef ,google,street view,Australia, Catlin Seaview Survey,google seaview,seaview survey,

You’ve got to hand it to Google, they are truly ambitious with their projects. Google Street view has been one such idea of theirs, that has managed to encompass the entire world, as no street has been left unchecked in their quest to cover the globe.

The Catlin Seaview Survey, a collaboration between Google, the University of Queensland, and the Caitlin Group is a pioneering project which will carry out the first comprehensive survey of the Great Barrier Reef, with 360-degree images from the underwater experiment to be made available online. 

Eventually, there will be around 50,000 panoramas available from the survey through Google, and the project will have its own YouTube channel and the ability to broadcast Google+ Hangouts via livestream from the ocean floor.

The hard drive can be used by both the iPads simultaneously to share sweet memories. 

The wristband has silica gel lining inside, an OLED clock display and a microphone. The band has Bluetooth that can be used to transfer videos and photos to the iPad. It has an 8-megapixel camera, which can be initiated to record using the shutter button in the band itself. The silica layer illuminates while the video is being recorded. The apple style smart button is situated in the inner side of band to avoid accidental operation. The most fascinating thing about the band is the wireless charging technology that uses the concept of electromagnetic induction. So you just have to keep the band in the board and the band would recharge.

Concept Future computer desk for users Mac and iPhone

The concept of this table is iDesk. Imagine an entirely adaptable workspace that doesn’t just hold your equipment, but enhances and interacts with it. Concept does not look the table, in which stupidly clever have built in TV. Rather, the future has turned out a minimalist table with a thin glass tabletop. Below the center can be seen easily recognizable button Home, which became the touch. As with Microsoft’s Surface technology, the entire desk would be a touch-sensitive display capable of running several simultaneous apps, some of which–such as a calendar, phone, and digital Post-It notes—would replace their physical counterparts entirely. Notifications, to-do lists, video conferencing, Adobe tool palettes, and countless widgets such as calculators and weather reports would all appear right on the surface of your desk, literally putting your entire working world at your fingertips. 

It looks the same idea as in the above tables, plates, but in fact there have their tricks. 

Mouse no longer needed, since the disposal of the huge sensory area. 

Is allocated to areas that you can put your aygadzhet and after that will sync with your computer. There is also attribute the near future – wireless charging. 

You can image from your computer or portable device to transfer to the screen the table, so that you can consider a group of them, just like the same movies of the future.

Sony envisions future with pay-as-you-go power

Power outlets need an upgrade. Is this it? 

(Credit: Sony) 

Sony is looking to revolutionize the inefficient way in which we consume power. 

A new concept video from the electronics giant shows how we could use power more efficiently in the year 2030 by switching to smart outlets with authentication and wireless charging on a broad scale, assuming we survive the zombie Mayan apocalypse.

The prototype power outlet, integrated with a short-range wireless FeliCa transmitter (and a new RFID over power line technology), allows the user to swipe a pay card across the faceplate and pay for energy on the spot. What makes it truly interesting is if humankind keeps progressing towards alternative energies (such as wind, solar, and biomass), then our outlets could give us options as to what source from which we obtain our power. The video description notes that with this outlet, "the user can actively control and manage power consumption on a user basis as well as on a device basis."

According to Sony's concept, a user interface similar to this could pop up when you use power.

Imagine not having to use power from the electric company for a TV-viewing session, instead drawing from a battery in your house that contains stored power from your solar- and wind-power generation sources. These outlets, if available all over a city, can offer people with electric cars the ability to charge up and pay for that energy easily. 

The proposed power control center app (for tablet or smartphone) would enable consumers to observe how much power is available from various power sources in the home. With the app, one could check how much juice the electric car in the garage contains, enable or disable outlets in various areas of the house, or remotely control devices connected to a power outlet. 

In a press conference in Tokyo on Tuesday, reps at Sony spoke about the developments, says AV Watch (check out their hands-on pics, too). A timetable for commercializing these smart outlets seems "ten years away," according to Taro Tadano from Sony Japan's business development department. Admittedly, he wants to speed up the process of development and integration, but reliability, safety, and patent battles present several roadblocks. 

While the overall idea seems grand, one must also wonder about cost. 

Regardless, he and many others at Sony are working hard to strengthen relationships with various Japanese companies related to this field with hope of moving this past the concept stage and into reality. One cannot help but admire the craveworthy Sony concept products (from 2030) also shown in the video, such as: a TV that you turn on by facing a wall and drawing a rectangle with your hand, a flexible tablet, and easy wireless charging.
