Bypass LTE and include dual-mode GSM/CDMA: Next generation iPhone Apple

In starting of  2011 Apple launch for the CDMA(Code division multiple access) iPhone, a new report adds a bit of a twist to this oft mentioned handset. This latest report suggests that both the rumored Verizon iPhone and Apple’s 5th next generation handset will not incorporate with LTE technology. Rather than LTE, As I know Apple’s fifth generation handset may be with  dual-mode GSM/CDMA device that is capable or operating on multiple carriers. 
the one thing important in all discussion is that Apple is not interested in producing an LTE (Long Term Evolution) device while the technology is still nascent. Apple will eschew the brand new LTE technology and will still stick with the older and more reliable GSM, HSDPA, and EV-DO technologies. I mean Why? Why Apple will do this ? I don't know actually what is going to do Apple? Apple won’t tarnish its reputation by being a guinea pig for wireless carriers that are launching these new networks. Before some time Apple made a similar move when it launched the iPhone with EDGE, instead of 3G connectivity which was available at the time of the smartphone’s launch. Apple made a deliberate decision to stick with the reliable EDGE technology and waited for 3G to mature before incorporating it into the iPhone 3G. that's the great thing Apple is going to do. But I don't know what is the main aim for that? 
Before some time taking a step to this impending shift from 3G to 4G presents a major inflection point in the reign of the iPhone franchise. Does Apple move to 4G right away, or do they wait for the network to mature? Recall that Apple waited to support 3G for one entire cycle, opting to release the original iPhone on AT&T’s mature 2.5G EDGE network, despite wide availability of 3G by early 2007. Other discussion will be continued after some time when Apple launch this I-phone after this new technology LTE with old GSM/CDMA.

But now, Here AT&T is so important word. Let me know you about it. 
What is AT&T?:
AT&T Inc. is the largest provider of fixed telephony in the United States, and also provides broadband and subscription television services. AT&T is the second largest provider of mobile telephony service in the United States, with over 85.1 million wireless customers, and more than 210 million total customers.
As of 2010, AT&T is the 7th largest company in the United States by total revenue, as well as the 3rd largest non-oil company in the US (Behind Walmart and Bank of America). It is the 3rd largest company in Texas by total revenue (Behind ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips) and the largest non-oil company in Texas. It is also the largest company headquartered in Dallas. In 2010, Forbes listed AT&T as the 13th largest company in the world and the 8th largest non-oil company in the world, the largest company in the world not associated with banking or oil, as well as the world's largest provider of telecommunication.

Is Google Making Robotic Car?: And Driven 225,000km by itself

Robotic Car Of Google


Mulit-billion-dollar international technology company, Google, has been secretly working away on developing robotic cars capable of driving themselves. As Google is only for internet before we know this. You know all about Google that Google was developed for only internet. But now it is launching too many projects and services by the great stuff. I don't know what has Google in it's mind? Before some time as I published my previous article describing new function on maps. But Now I am talking about Google is going to make  business?

However Google was working on this project for last year. But as this was secret that was no information has been leaked by Google. But now Google is giving some information about its project. Google is releasing information what the company has been up to in the last year or so and where it’s currently at.

Published on it's Blog  Google has revealed it has not only begun to forge the way in robotic car development, but it’s already driven a small fleet of automated Toyota Prius’ around parts of California for a total of 225,000km on public roads. The interesting thing is most of us weren’t even aware it was happening.



Here I will going to show one video that is published on YouTube. This video was published before I think one year. And for that Google has said that that is only for google images and for maps. But now it is seen that it is completely robotic car that was made  by technicians of Google. 

Actually Google has made this car as technology to help people to stop accident and manage traffic. There is great thought of Google. As It's for Google images, maps, And other hand it's also for to help people to prevent accident.Google also says that this technology has the potential to cut road-related fatalities by as much as half if it were applied to the infrastructure.

Before seeing look what Google says about it's Robotic car and about it's thoughts on it's innovative ideas.


"Larry and Sergey founded Google because they wanted to help solve really big problems using technology. And one of the big problems we’re working on today is car safety and efficiency. our automated cars use video cameras, radar sensors and a laser range finder to “see” other traffic, as well as detailed maps (which we collect using manually driven vehicles) to navigate the road ahead. This is all made possible by Google’s data centers, which can process the enormous amounts of information gathered by our cars when mapping their terrain."


that's straight means you can see that Google is going to make all latest technology with it's services and make it different and the best for ever. and Also it's straight profit is to people like us on the road as robotic car to prevent Accident.

"We’ve always been optimistic about technology’s ability to advance society, which is why we have pushed so hard to improve the capabilities of self-driving cars beyond where they are today. While this project is very much in the experimental stage, it provides a glimpse of what transportation might look like in the future thanks to advanced computer science. And that future is very exciting."

I don't have to say anything about how google is thinking as all part of it's business and make good interact with users of it. Indirectly it is making it's position to people who is not using internet. Before some time people who don't use Internet they didn't know anything about Google but new service launching of Google as making it to diiferent all have to know about GOogle.!

Now Check Out this video of robotic car by Google:

If the great wall of china started from your city?




Now you must shocked reading this. But what can i do, that is true now. It's possible by BBC it's map. BBC has launched new setvice or can say function in which you can overlap the great wall of china on your city as making your starting point. This is for you to exactly know how big is that place where you are going to go or about that you are thinking. This service is already launched by BBC. I have posted too many articles on Google's new service with its growing business. But this is the best innovative idea of Google I feel ever.

 this is the greag innovative idea of BBC's advanced engeneer gets in their genious mind. for that you can choose any place as example your city and overlap the place where you want to know how big is it? So, that you can know exactly how big is that place. I hope in this function it will be available to overlap your city to the place where you want. you will never know if you see only any place in your map. but to compare there when ever you lap on your knowing area you can know how bug is it?


Dimensions takes important places, events and things, and overlays them onto a map of where you are.

Dimensions is an experimental prototype for the BBC. We want to bring home the human scale of events and places in history. The D-Day landing beaches measured from London to Norfolk in the UK. How far would the Titanic stretch down your street?


Dimensions simply juxtaposes the size of historical events with your home and neighbourhood, overlaying important places, events and things on a satellite view of where you live. Certain "Dimensions" can be transformed into short walks, so you can get a physical appreciation of the distances involved.


Type in your postcode or a place name to get started. That's the really great thing for us and for technology developing at every 45 seconds.

Do You Know How Touch Screen (Glass) Problems? : solve with "TeslaTouch."



Now you know why apple's  iPhone front screen is made of glass? there is because of user can see and interact with interface. But how will be if it's back side of iPhone would make with glass? 

Yes I also shocked when I know about this type of  user interface in back side. but that's is true. Apple is going to make it's iPhone backside with glass .

But now I am going to talk how this glass Touch Screen has one big problem solution? 


Glass touch screen is common to now days. every where you will see this type of touch screen. And I am sure that you have now touch screen in you hand. In rail-way station, bus stop, museum, you will find touch screen. And now Microsoft is going to make latest two interface touch screen. that means? that means if know that if you touch on your screen it understands only your first touch. but with second touch at same time that will be not considered by that glass. that type of gadget has already been launched by Microsoft. I will write about soon. But till than know about how touch screen problem now on your finger interface? 

the way a team of Disney Researchers sees it, there's one huge problem with this technology: All glass screens feel exactly the same.

Now see difference between hardware Keyboard and Touch Keyboard: see, if you press key on hardware keyboard, where you can feel whether your fingers are hitting the right keys. but when you use touch keyboard, where the letters "q" and "w" feel exactly the same -- as does the space between them 


That's the problem that Disney Research is hoping to solve with a new technology it's calling "TeslaTouch."


This type of touch screen was first time successfully demonstrated in  tech conference in New York this week, uses a small static force to control friction between a user's finger and the touch screen.

"It's kind of like a buzzing or a vibration. It has the same effect as a buzz," said Chris Harrison, one of the Disney researchers and a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University. "But if you carefully tune the frequency and the vibration of the panel you can actually create things that feel like sandpaper or rubber or a wall." 

Now see what this company says about this new touch screen:





TelsaTouch infuses finger-driven interfaces with physical feedback. The technology is based on the electrovibration principle, which can programmatically vary the electrostatic friction between fingers and a touch panel. Importantly, there are no moving parts, unlike most tactile feedback technologies, which use vibration motors. This allows for different fingers to feel different sensations. When combined with an interactive graphical display, TeslaTouch enables the design of a wide variety of interfaces that allow the user to feel virtual elements through touch. For example, when dragging a file, the level of friction could convey the file size. Objects could "snap" into place when designing a presentation. Or perhaps with a quick "rub" of your email application's icon, you could sense how many emails are unread. Finally, imagine a (flat) touch keyboard where the virtual keys can be felt. The possibilities are endless.




Tactile feedback based on electrovibration has several compelling properties. It is fast, low-powered, dynamic, and can be used in a wide range of interaction scenarios and applications, including multitouch interfaces. Our system demonstrates an exceptionally broad bandwidth and uniformity of response across a wide range of frequencies and amplitudes. Furthermore, the technology is highly scalable and can be used efficiently on touch surfaces of any size, shape and configuration, including large interactive tables, hand-held mobile devices, as well as curved, flexible and irregular touch surfaces. Lastly, because our design does not have any moving parts, it can be easily added to existing devices with minimal physical modification.


TelsaTouch was developed at Disney Research, Pittsburgh. The industrial design of the TeslaTouch mobile prototype was produced by the CMU School of Design. Disney Research is a network of research laboratories at The Walt Disney Company. Key proficiencies are in Computer Graphics, Video Processing, Computer Vision, Robotics, Radio and Antennas, Wireless Communications, Human-Computer Interaction, and Behavioral Sciences, with developing competency in areas 
such as data mining and displays.


I would like to know the name of researchers of this type of screen:
Olivier Bau
Ivan Poupyrev
Ali Israr
Chris Harrison

Toyota Auris: New Car Film To Raise Greater Awareness Of Hybrid Technology



Now I am going to talk about Toyota Auris! this is the new car And also launched in UK. But in this article I am not going to talk about this car. 


I am goibg to talk about the film of the Toyota Auris. Yes, Not being the "top Gear" type petrohead, I admire hybrods and also Hybrid technology. If you are living in UK, than You must know and also have seen the latest technology filled car The TOyota Auris at some point on the road. And with relation tho this car, Toyota and Glue Isobar have teamed up to create a film of this car.




In making of this film there is also new technology that is called EDGE FILM PROJECTION TECHNOLOGY. that is to showcase TOYOTA's innovative hybrod technology, And I must say that the film will also inspire them to find out more about the benifit and also can say profit of HYBROD TECHNOLOGY in new car Auris. and that's an aim of this making of film.


What is this film about and how it creates?
(below report is by gadgetlite.com)

Toyota is to launch a cutting-edge film featuring the latest projection mapping techniques to showcase the unique Hybrid technology now available inside their new Auris.                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                        
The film, developed by glue Isobar, is designed to portray the vehicle’s extraordinary ability to constantly recycle the energy it uses.The 3D projection shows the car transforming; its bodywork peeling back to reveal a glowing blue light which symbolizes the car’s Hybrid energy.                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                           
The energy then escapes from the car and ‘energises’ objects in the surrounding environment. Upon reaching a crescendo, the sequence then reverses, with the energy being drawn back into the car, thus demonstrating how the Auris Hybrid gets its energy back and deliver exceptional fuel economy.                                              
                                                                                                                                                                            
The documentary-style piece, which is intended to appeal to a tech-savvy audience, was shot in one take on location in a tunnel in London’s Shoreditch. Witnessed by passers-by, the film is accompanied by an original and immersive audio track.                                                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                                          
The film will be seeded via digital channels on 7th October and further social content will be curated and hosted on a dedicated campaign hub at ‘www.getyourenergyback.co.uk’.                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                                        
The film has been produced by glue Isobar’s digital film unit, Superglue, which counts Gavin Rothery, the VFX expert behind the special effects on Bafta-winning film Moon, as one of its team members.                                                                    


Hope for Nokia N9 with 5G? : Nokia Unveils the New N8 Handset

Latest Technology gadgets! It's time to compete! that sentence NOKIA  understands very well..!! Nokia look set to take the ultra competitive smartphone market by storm with the introduction of their impressive new handset, the N8. Only Nokia N8 has all specification and and also influenced by design.


The N8 is certainly an impressive looking phone such has range  of colour options give the handset appeal to a younger market.he screen on the phone is a very good quality display, benefiting from the excellent OMLED that it incorporates. The screens of 3.5 inches is adequate enough, that's why  both images and text appear crystal clear which the most important part of gadgets. A contributing factor to the excellent display is its display colors of  16 million  along with the very high quality 360 x 640 resolution. It has capacitive touchscreen  so that responsiveness is very good, and the display also wins points for its support of the useful multi touch system.


Ignoring the screen for a seconds, the rest of the handset is a fairly simple affair with just a single "home" button accompanying the screen on the front of the chassis.

Nokia N8 has too many quality and features. At the end of this article I have added most of features of Nokia N8. But now, Let me talk about Nokia's progress and success of as gadget marketers! As you know Nokia is making too many smart phones and medium budget also. And looking at new expensive Nokia E series phone as professional phones! that's great. And now Much better N series! seeing succeed of  nokia N8 phone I must say that Nokia Has to launch New expansive model of Nokia N9 or Nokia N8 pro or Nokia N8 mini or may be Nokia N9 mini..!! so, hope for that new model of Nokia in face of new technology and also for new generation.
And think If it will be with 5G ...!!!!! than I don't have anything what does not have any features that you can't decide..!! It will change the definition of tech and technology !

Now take a look of nokia N8!

As on nokia's own language..
