Mi children's GPS watch 2S

AI GPS positioning, touch display and more for Yuan 199

Only available in China now.

The Mi Children's Watch 2S has a squarish display that measures 1.3-inches.


 The display registers touch inputs and uses a 240 x 240-pixel resolution colour IPS LCD display. 

The body is made of plastic and other soft-touch materials all through the straps so as to offer a comfortable user experience, which is what kids would want in a smartwatch. 

And, one can order it in Red or Blue colours.

Google offers free access to satellite images

NEW YORK: Tracking melting glaciers, deforestation or disappearing elephants has been made easier as Google has now allowed access to real time, updated satellite images through its Skybox programme.

"The fresh satellite imagery will be contributed to projects that save lives, protect the environment, promote education, and positively impact humanity," Google said in a blog post.

From camps for displaced people in Sudan to beaches cleared of landmines in Sri Lanka, the released images are also available to the public for free.

As long as they attribute Google and do not profit from the images, anyone is free to view and use the images available.

NGOs can also request for new and updated images that they would like on the programme page.

Skybox, a satellite company, was acquired for $500 million by Google in August this year.

Future is wearable technology

Many of these technologies don't look anything like today's gadgets. Instead, they are stretchable, bendable and incredibly thin. They can also be given unique designs, to stand out like a bold tattoo, or to blend in to the color of your skin.

The calculator watch, introduced in the 1980s, was one original piece of widespread worn electronics.

Wearable technology has applications in monitoring and realtime feedback for athletes as well.The decreasing cost of processing power and other components is encouraging widespread adoption and availability.

Transitioning to night life and entertainment industries electroluminescent shirts have appeared in concerts such as Electric Daisy Carnival and Lollapalooza. Michael Graziano Clothing has worked with such artists as Deadmau5, Coldplay and Andy Moor they are appearing in the tourism industry.

According to ABI Research due to the relative ease of compatibility with smartphones and other electronic devices, the wearable technologies market will spike to 485 million annual device shipments by 2018.

According to Forbes, 71% of 16-to-24 year olds want wearable tech.

    

Glasses-free 3D TV from Sony

There are two displays here: a 24-inch LCD capable of 1080p and a 46-inch LCD with up to 4K resolution. Adjacent literature was at least truthful in admitting that the autostereoscopic 3D setup is showing at a "HD equivalent" quality. This is because the parallax barrier, which causes the 3D effect, effectively halves the resolution to ensure each eye is receiving separate images.

My observations of the 24-inch glasses-free 3D TV was rather disappointing. Even when standing in the most optimal spot (directly in the middle), the 3D effect lacked that sense of dimension that makes 3D worth watching. Impressive small-screen 3D TVs are a rarity, as many of those devices lack the overall size necessary for a truly immersive experience. A prototype Vaio L all-in-one PC nearby with a lenticular 3D display was much more convincing at creating a sense of dimension at such a size range.

The 46-inch 3D display is an improvement, perhaps mostly due to the viewing area being nearly double the size of the other screen. There was a better sense of dimension, especially in fast-moving sequences. A trailer for the animated flick "The Pirates! Band of Misfit" was more enjoyable in 3D compared with 2D.

Most importantly, both of Sony's glasses-free 3D TVs did have one critical element that makes it all worth it: almost zero crosstalk. However, 3D still comes off as a gimmick: if you are not watching from the central 45-degree viewing area, the 3D effect is simply not as prominent.

There are also price considerations. Sony's sets will likely be astronomical when and if they ever launch. And any sort of issues with 3D quality will be a deal breaker for most buyers, who will understandably wait for the technology to mature.

PhoneGap - Open source mobile framework which supports 7 platforms

Mobile development is a mess. Building applications for each device--iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile and more--requires different frameworks and languages. One day, the big players in mobile may decide to work together and unify third-party app development processes. Until then, PhoneGap will use standards-based web technologies to bridge web applications and mobile devices. Plus, because PhoneGap apps are standards compliant, they’re future-proofed to work with browsers as they evolve.

PhoneGap is an open source implementation of open standards. That means developers and companies can use PhoneGap for mobile applications that are free, commercial, open source, or any combination of these.
Since winning the Web 2.0 Expo LaunchPad competition in April 2009, PhoneGap has been widely recognized as a game-changer for mobile app development. The code has been downloaded more than 600,000 times and thousands of apps built using PhoneGap are available in mobile app stores and directories.
