The World's Fastest Motor

A new engine was developed by researchers at E.T.H Zurich Department of Power Electronics and marketed by Swiss Celeroton can run more than 1 million rpm.

For comparison, collapsed stars turning 60,000 rpm, a mixture of about 30 000 and high performance engines at about 10,000 rpm.

Matchbook size of the engine is Titatnium shell, very thin wires and a trade secret of iron in the shape of cylinders. The need for small electronic devices smaller holes are needed, which means smaller, faster, more efficient practices.

Computer Pen

The stylus or digital pen computer is an invention of computer, writing on paper and sends write to digital media.

While the touchscreen devices represent a move away from paper, about eighty percent of companies still use paper forms.

Many professions (legal, medical, engineering, journalism) also hand-written notes, charts, diagrams and drawings instead of using tablets or other devices.

The pen computer can be compared with an ordinary ink pen (even use ink rechargeable), written on plain paper, unless it has an optical scanner, which detects motion, images and contact information.

The recorded data is then sent to a computer via a wireless transmitter. You can view and edit your written notes, charts, tables or drawings.

A useful feature of this invention is that the computer handheld digital files can easily be converted to text fonts for use in Word documents or emails.

Digital Pen technology was first developed by Swedish inventor and entrepreneurs Fåhraues Christer.


Fåhraues is a physician and an Honorary Doctor of Technology at Lund University in Sweden, and a M.Sc. degree in bioengineering from the University of California at San Diego.

Fåhraues served as CEO and President of Anoto Group AB, a company he founded in 1996 as C Technologies licenses its digital pen technology.

This invention has been approved equipment to companies around the world for various commercial products. Applications include data / signature capture, filling out forms, mapping, surveying, document management, the role of repetition, blackboards, toys and education.

Cloud Kindle Web App Apple Rebuffs

They say revenge is a pretty good served cold. But when it comes to circumvent Apple In-App new underwriting rules, it may be better served as a Web application HTML5.

This morning, Amazon launched its Kindle Reader Cloud, a Web application that allows you to read on your Kindle e-books from Safari or Chrome browser on your PC or tablet, including iPad (Amazon says more browsers will be supported in the future).

Cloud Kindle Reader is a link to the Kindle store, something that is now missing in the Kindle and the iPhone Apps for the iPad after the implementation of an Apple app, a new order in the rules, which require application developers to remove all links to external mechanisms to buy digital books or subscriptions. Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Books, and Kobo, all amended their applications to meet the rules will be changed, removing any links or mentions of their company websites.

Amazon "Kindle HTML5 move was widely expected as an increasing number of companies are developing Web apps HTML5 to wrest more control from Apple, which must approve all applications that ends at the Apple App Store. In June, for example, the Financial Times offered a HTML5 app for users and to IPAD Kobo recently announced it was developing an about HTML5. We assume that Barnes & Noble has up his sleeve as well.

On the face of the new Cloud Kindle Kindle reader is very similar to the IOS and Android applications, and by simply logging into your Amazon account, you can access your e-book from the library. Of course, you must have an active Internet connection to synchronize your library on your PC or iPad Kindle Store access. But Amazon offers a caching feature that allocates 50 MB of storage space for your iPhone and lets you check your e-books "disconnected", as you can and iOS Kindle Android applications.

IPhone 5

For the first time in three years, Apple has not launched a new iPhone at W.W.D.C combined. They showed us iOS 5, but then told us that we must wait until September to get our hands on it. What is wrong with that? All signs point to a new mobile strategy of our friends at Apple ...

So - where is it? The five iPhone or 4S, or 4G, or whatever it's called. Obviously, this is not at W.W.D.C - any other way. There is not even a whisper about Apple's conference. Journalists, bloggers and analysts seem to think that the next generation of Apple phone is destined to appear in September, October or maybe. With five IOS now set to decline in September, which makes sense.

I hate to break with Apple, but a lot of people to listen to blogs and live video for some reason on Monday, seeing or hearing something about the upcoming iPhone. Of course, everyone cares about Leon and the I.O.S, and people certainly care icloud really get to use. But the faithful to listen at the same time, this year as last year and the year before hearing about this new iPhone, and got nothing. This is a solid indication of Apple to change the course of its strategy to handset.

It 'clear that at this moment, the plan for Apple iPhone is quite simple. Sell ​​the new iPhone (iPhone 4, for the moment) the highest price, and the last model (iPhone 3Gs for the moment) less. A quick check at any carrier that offers the iPhone in the world shows that 3G is a "low end" iPhone and iPhone 4 is a "High End" is the iPhone.

For Apple, the problem is simple - this is terrible. Having a predictable release cycle year, Apple itself at an impasse when it comes to market segmentation. No iPhone available from companies ... only two. So far, since Apple was new to the mobile market, which was enough. Players who are set in the game, it is not. By changing the release date of June and fall, have plenty of room to make changes.

The iPhone has an iPod

Earlier this year, rumors surfaced that Cupertino  was to develop a compact, cheaper iPhone in which journalists dubbed the "iPhone Nano". Although this seemed almost absurd to anyone with information about the mobile industry, it seems equally clear that many more. Why? It's simple - it's the same strategy used in Apple's iPod. Provide a high-end market, offering low-priced mid-end model that some may also accept a second device, and cough something then meets the low end. iPod, iPod Mini, iPod Nano. Simple. But - and this strategy does not work for mobile devices, thanks to the development of smartphones and smartphone manufacturers innovations rapidly.

Apple can not release a low end phone. It has no market share (currently 17% of the global market for smart phones), and market segmentation. There is no way that the iPhone will not be satisfied with the "feature phone" people who want a rugged phone for things like ... make phone calls. With its fifth generation of mobile phones should appear, Apple has only a 4% share of colossal 430 million phones sold every year in the global market.

iPhone 5: update, iPhone updated 4

Think about it for a second. What if Apple moved its annual update of the iPhone calendar half-year? The next iPhone comes out in September or October, the sixth generation of the iPhone will land later in March or April. This is a major change that took a lot of stress of the iPhone, when the team can relax and not to make a giant blockbuster designs each year, to impress the crowds and set a new standard market leader. Instead, Apple can - as producers Android - Inauguration of gradual changes, from design to date and to offer a wider range of handsets that it currently can.

Image of Apple's line of this provision: the current iPhone 4, September / October 4S launched the iPhone, the iPhone has launched, sometimes five in the spring, 5S, and the iPhone was launched in the autumn of 2012 . Suddenly, Apple is now the market segmentation, can provide four different phones into four different price ranges, and also the differentiation of the properties are offered to capture some of the other markets have not yet penetrated. This would increase the deepest in the region is dominated by iPhone and Android, which clung to their lives, RIM - the company, Apple firmly declared war on the I.O.S IMessage 5 app, a clone of the popular RIM B.B.M

Toshiba tecra R850 Laptop


Toshiba continues to use laptops are big business at the speed that does not carry extra bulk. The 15-inch Tecra R850 offers a processor of the second generation of Intel Core i7, AMD Radeon, and USB 3.0 connectivity. Priced at $ 1349 (U.S. $ 879), Tecra R850 is a good investment? Read on.

Design

Keeping in step with the 14-inch Tecra R840 to R850 has a graphite black frame with a ribbed pattern on the lid and palm rest, which has a meaning well and resists fingerprints. While the house can feel like plastic, it is actually a magnesium alloy that is reinforced with glass fiber, which helps protect against the inevitable shocks and bruises. The latest Dell Latitude laptops and HP EliteBook are even more massive, but they weigh more. The flair only on the R850 are the hinges that are made of chromed plastic.

14.9 x 9.9 x 0.8 to 1.2 inches, the R850 is understandably larger footprint of the Lenovo L420 14-inch (13.5 x 9.2 x 1.3 to 1.4 inches), but The R850 is a bit 'more subtle, and only a hair heavier (5.4 kg versus 5.2 kg). Although the 15-inch notebooks are designed to move too, R850 is a relatively large size laptop.

Keyboard / touchpad

Like the Tecra R840, R850, the keyboard has an island style, with good key space with a full numeric keypad. Despite the gloss, the fingers do not slip while typing, and the keys provide a good amount of information. That said, I still prefer the slightly concave key Lenovo ThinkPad. To improve stability on the keyboard, are pillars in the panel. Buttons for the presentation and usefulness of Eco modes sitting beside the power button on the top left of the keyboard.

Regarding navigation, the R850 two options: a touch pad and the blue AccuPoint located between G and H keys. The AccuPoint was fast and responsive, but a little too sensitive. Fortunately, this can be adjusted via the control panel. The rough texture is slightly irritating to our fingers. Again, Lenovo Trackpoint remains the gold standard.

3.4 x 1.9-inch touch-pad provides a large surface area for cursor control and supports gestures. When Alpine Electronics trackpad, a pinch-to-zoom and two finger scrolling and gestures of rotation were easy to use, but we found a circular scrolling to be more problems, because we had to make a gesture to get a couple of times up. Four corners of the touchpad can also be programmed for specific commands, such as Go Home, Search, Refresh.

The metallic mouse buttons were robust and had a satisfying click. Located between the mouse buttons is a fingerprint reader for secure connections.

Display and audio

R850 is a 15.6-inch matte display with a native resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. The display is crisp and bright when you're sitting directly in front of it. However, vertical viewing angles are quite close. When watching HD Trailer Green Lantern, we noticed that the colors were a bit 'on the sly, and we saw pixelation during the night and the space scenes.

Two speakers located above the keyboard produce a hard, but a poor sound when listening to Guns N 'Roses is Pandora. However, ABC News report from the dialogue sounds rich and clear.

Ports and Webcam

The right side of the R850 is equipped with a DVD burner, USB 2.0, USB / eSATA, headphone / audio jack and an Ethernet jack. The right hinge is also equipped with a Kensington lock reinforced. With the power connector, the left side of R850 a reader VGA port, USB 3.0, slot, slot Express Card/34, and a 6-in-1 card. A docking connector is at the bottom of the laptop. USB / eSATA is equipped with Toshiba USB sleep and charge, which lets you connect a device (MP3 player, mobile phone or mobile device) for a sum, even when the computer is in standby mode or off.

Heat

The Tecra R850 does a great job of keeping cool under pressure. After 15 minutes of a continuous film of Hulu in full screen, touchpad, which registered 88 degrees Fahrenheit, making the distance between the keys G and H, well below our threshold of unpleasant heat (95 degrees) . The below is just a bit warmer at 89 degrees. At 98 degrees, left vent is at the bottom of the laptop was the hottest point. With the laptop on your lap, heating to remove a bit uncomfortable after an hour of streaming content.
