Microsoft Surface

Posted May 6, 2011 By gauthu95
Twitt

Microsoft has introduced a 360 ̊  interface, namely Surface in the year 2007, which is really incomparable. This interface accompanies the main interface of the system. This interface is highly useful for Hotels, entertainment, military, education and business etc. It easily responds to touch and many real world objects with its Pixel sense component. It can manipulate digital contents with your gestures and hand motions.

[adsense]

Samsung SUR40 comes with Surface 2.0 installed in it. It consists of a table and its top serves as a HD touch monitor.  Its 40 inch slim monitor completely substitutes mouse and keyboard. All its hardware components are enclosed within the table. Its Camera-based vision system with LED infrared direct illumination technology serves as the input device.

Samsung SUR40:

Surface really gives you an awesome experience. Working with it will provide you a great visual treat. You can twist and turn the images as you do with your ordinary photographs. You can modify the settings without actually getting into the code. When you play a video in surface, it gives an experience that you are actually in the location, where the video was shot.

Specifications:

  • 30 inch XLA DLP Projector (Initial version of Surface) and 40 inch display (for Surface 2.0)
  • Monitor dimension: 42.5 x 27 x 21 inch
  • Weight 82/90 kg
  • 4 GB RAM
  • 1 TB Storage capacity
  • It is supported on Vista,  Win7 and Windows Phone 7
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g connectivity

  • 2.66 GHz Intel Core Quad Xeon (Woodcrest) processor
  • Network adapter: Intel Gb LAN
  • 6 USB ports
  • External Monitor Support
  • High quality built-in speakers.

I can even say that this software is a boon for gamers. When you play in a system interfaced with a surface, you will never get a feeling that you are gaming in a computer.

One more astonishing feature of Surface is that, when you place a device like mobile or a camera over the monitor, Surface interacts with ‘em and  it allows their contents (like pics, videos, documents) to get transferred to the System automatically. Now, you can twist and turn them, enlarge them, play them in High Definition. You can also transfer the contents of one device to another device, without any cables and secondary storage devices.

It also offers Multi-user experience and direct interaction facilities. Surface  is the next generation of touch systems. The excitement and fun that you can experience, cannot be described in words.

Customize the Shut Down button:

Normally, the shut down button turns the computer off. But, few user may restart their computer often rather than shutting it down. Windows 7 allows you to transform the function of the Shut Down button and make it to function as a Restart or Sleep….. buttons.  To make this possible: Right click Start Button ——> Properties ——-> Power Button Action Drop down menu. Now select the preferred action for the Shut Down Button and then click Ok. Thus, the shut down button can be customized according to the need.

Viewing the Gadgets in the desktop when multiple Windows are open:

Rolltop – The Future Of Laptops

Posted April 5, 2011 By gauthu95
Twitt

The Personal computers, which occupied quite a large space was redesigned and shrunk to a Laptop. The Laptops got further dwindled into Palmtops. Though these palmtops are handy they don’t serve our purpose completely and are not as efficient as Laptops. So, the computer world began its quest to solve this problem and has finally ended up with the idea of devising THE ROLLTOPS which lets you roll it as you like.

[adsense]

The rolltop is featured as having a flexible OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode). Its multi-touch screen can be modified into a 13″ screen laptop with a virtual keyboard and when you wish to view any video or movie, the virtual keyborad can also be transformed as a part of the screen to have a  17″ screen monitor with a stand attached to it. When it’s not in use, it can be easily rolled into a 11″ tube and is highly portable.

Rolltop – Specifications:

  • Flexible Screen and Keypad
  • Virtual Keyborad
  • Multi-touch screen and a stylus
  • Webcam
  • Loud speaker
  • Detachable power supply
  • OLED Display
  • 13″ laptop screen or 17″ monitor screen
  • Multiple USB and LAN ports

However, these computers are still in their developmental stages and hence their capacity, speed and cost are not mentioned.



The rolltops are provided with specially designed exhaust fans to avoid heating of the system.

4G Technology and The Phones of The Future

The greatest tech brainiacs around the world are now constantly working on the evolution of the most expected 4G Technology. This radio defined technology mainly concentrates on Security aspects and makes an attempt to eliminate the stumbling blocks of 3G technology. This technology can increase the download rates upto 1000mbps . The Hybrid technology used in 3G is replaced with OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) which is a vast improvement over TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) and CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access).

CDMA sends Data through one channel with the division of time in three slots or by identifying the receiver with a code. Where as OFDMA sends data by dividing the channel into many narrow bands for greater efficiency.


China’s 4G network under construction:

China after obtaining the approval from MIIT (Ministry of Industry and Information Technology) has begun the construction of its magnificent 4G network. Leading Chinese technocrats have told press that China’s 4G network is 50 times more efficient than its predecessor –  3G. China Mobile (a Chinese mobile company) has signed contracts with 9 international telecom carriers and is planning to setup 27 4G global networks.

Premature fruits of 4G tech.

Though 4G technology has not evolved completely, many mobile manufacturers around the world have started to manufacture phones with basic features of 4G technology. Let us have a slight glance on them:

Samsung 4G LTE/ Samsung Droid Charge:


 

The white curtains just lifted here at the Samsung booth at CES to unveil the Samsung Droid. This Verizon LTE-ready beast touts a Super AMOLED Plus display, runs Android 2.2 with TouchWiz and features a front-facing cam. On the rear it’s got an 8 megapixel auto-focus shooter and mini HDMI on the hip.

HTC Inspire 4G:


AT&T has been broadening its hemispheres with power packed Android models for 2011, and the HTC Inspire 4G is one of its primary contenders within the carrier-wide Wireless Battle. The HTC Inspire 4G is not only capable of AT&T’s latest HSPA+ speeds, but its HTC Sense UI and Android 2.2 interface ranks on the top of the totem pole at this point on smartphone timeline. It also flaunts an 8-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording, and rocks a generous 4.3-inch WVGA capacitive touchscreen. The latest HTC high-end Android phone is an architectural divergence from the sheep herd of mundane smartphones on the market today, and is stocked with lots of memory for games or applications from the Android Market.

 

Motorola ATRIX 4G:

Its Amazing 4G features, gives us an illusion that we are working with Laptops and not with mobile. It delivers computing power and instant connectivity to the internet. Its MOTOBLUR feature (handy widgets) provides facilities than the expected. Its better bluetooth and headset performance, finger-print reader technology and high battery life makes it unique in the market.

Final words from the author:

4G which was considered to be a dream, is becoming a reality. Its flabbergasting features will definitely take the world a step up. Yet, this technology has got certain drawbacks in terms of speed, efficiency. Let us hope that the greatest technicians around the world make dramatic changes and eliminate the shortcoming of 3G in 4G.

Hope you enjoyed reading this, Share your thoughts with us. Let us have a discussion on it.  :D :D :D
