Yes Facebook is using your 2FA phone number to target you with ads

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TechCrunch September 27, 2018 at 11:37AM.)

Facebook has confirmed it does in fact use phone numbers that users provided it for security purposes to also target them with ads.

Specifically a phone number handed over for two factor authentication (2FA) — a security technique that adds a second layer of authentication to help keep accounts secure.

Facebook’s confession follows a story Gizmodo ran a story yesterday, related to research work carried out by academics at two U.S. universities who ran a study in which they say they were able to demonstrate the company uses pieces of personal information that individuals did not explicitly provide it to, nonetheless, target them with ads.

While it’s been — if not clear, then at least evident — for a number of years that Facebook uses contact details of individuals who never personally provided their information for ad targeting purposes (harvesting people’s personal data by other means, such as other users’ mobile phone contact books which the Facebook app uploads), the revelation that numbers provided to Facebook by users in good faith, for the purpose of 2FA, are also, in its view, fair game for ads has not been so explicitly ‘fessed up to before.

Mud-spraying drones could help build emergency shelters

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Curbed – All September 27, 2018 at 10:36AM.)

Robotically built architecture is here, and it’s already taken myriad forms. We’ve seen multi-axis arms autonomously build timber frames and large-scale 3D printer craft entire army barracks. Now you can add mudslinging drones to the list of technological advancements.

Architect Stephanie Chaltiel recently showed off Mud Shell, an experimental project that uses drones to help build mud dwellings that she hopes someday will be used as emergency shelter.

Tesla Autopilot on Version 9: Mad Max mode, path planning, navigate, and more

 

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Electrek September 27, 2018 at 09:11AM.)

In our latest look at the new firmware, we’re now exploring how Tesla Autopilot on Version 9 works: anything from Mad Max mode to path planning and more.

 

We have already gotten interesting looks at the new version 9 firmware user interface on Model 3 and on Model S.

Now we’re looking at Tesla Autopilot on the new update.

As we previously reported, the biggest difference is the new ‘Navigate on Autopilot’ feature, which enables more automation on Autopilot while driving on the highway with a destination in the navigation system.

Under the mode, Autopilot will suggest its own lane changes to get to your destination.

With new pictures released by lambaus on /r/Teslamotors, we now have a better idea of how Tesla intends for drivers to use the feature.

The first phone with 10GB of RAM is coming

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on The Verge September 27, 2018 at 07:06AM.)

China’s TENAA, the regulatory body that certifies phones before their release in the country, has revealed a new variant of the Oppo Find X, this one coming with 10GB of memory on board. GizmoChina was among the first to report this discovery, having been tipped off by a tweet highlighting the updated Find X entry. Depending on when it’s actually released, the 10GB Find X could be the first smartphone to have such a generous serving of RAM, though rumors have also surfaced of competition for that title from rival phone maker Vivo. In any case, we seem to be within striking distance of the first smartphone to have double-digit gigabytes of memory, so now is the time to start drafting up all those jokes about your new phone having more memory and storage — the Find X listed on TENAA comes with 256GB of space — than your old PC.

Cybersecurity Firm Darktrace Is Now Worth $1.65 Billion After Latest Round of Funding

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Tech – Fortune September 27, 2018 at 12:57PM.)

Darktrace, a U.K.-based cybersecurity firm has raised $50 million in a recent round of venture capital funding, putting the five-year-old company’s valuation at $1.65 billion, CNBC reported. Last year the company raised $75 million in funds, which put its valuation at $825 million.

This recent round of funding was led by Vitruvian Partners, and was backed by the company’s existing investors KKR and 1011 Ventures. The funding will go toward furthering Darktrace’s international expansion, according to TechCrunch.

Darktrace announced earlier this month its plans to increase its workforce by 25% and was considering raising funds to do so, Bloomberg reported at the time. “We’ve seen phenomenal growth and quite frankly we’re just trying to keep up with the demand at the moment,” Nicole Eagan, the company’s chief executive officer told the outlet. More recently, Eagan said Darktrace is seeing a lot of growth “in new and existing geographies,” according to TechCrunch.

Panasonic completing 3 new cell production lines at Tesla’s Gigafactory

 

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Ars Technica September 26, 2018 at 06:22PM.)

(Cover Image)
Enlarge /An automobile chassis sits on display inside a Tesla Motors Inc. store in Munich, Germany, on Monday, March 30, 2015.

In a Tuesday interview with Bloomberg, the head of Panasonic’s Automotive Division said that the company was on track to complete an additional three battery-cell production lines at Tesla’s Nevada Gigafactory before the end of this year. That puts the expansion ahead of schedule for completion.

Panasonic is a joint owner of the Gigafactory. The company provides the “2170” battery cells that go into a Model 3 battery pack. Tesla packages those cells to complete the pack.

In the interview, Panasonic automotive executive Yoshio Ito told Bloomberg that “the bottleneck for Model 3 production has been our batteries.”

Ito added, “they just want us to make as many as possible.”

ECG Feature on Apple Watch Could Take Years to Be Approved in the United Kingdom

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on MacRumors September 27, 2018 at 09:20AM.)

Earlier this month, Apple unveiled the Apple Watch Series 4 with a new electrocardiogram (ECG) feature that measures the electrical activity of your heartbeat, providing you with a heart rhythm classification that can be shared with your doctor. The feature isn’t out yet, but it will be limited to Series 4 models in the United States later in 2018.

Today, 9to5Mac shared a potential time window for the launch of the ECG feature in the United Kingdom. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) explains that the process starts by examining Apple’s documentation surrounding the ECG feature and performing an audit of the quality assurance system.

While this step doesn’t appear to be lengthy, the proceeding steps could make the process longer. MHRA says it would require Apple to perform a new clinical investigation to judge the effectiveness of the ECG on Apple Watch, but Apple would likely not be able to use any of the data from the studies it’s already completed because MHRA requires companies to notify the regulator in advance of a study.

Once the study is submitted, MHRA has 60 days to approve it (which may become longer if the regulators have further inquiries for Apple), and then Apple can begin the study. These last few steps are what the MHRA say “could potentially add years” onto the debut of the ECG in the UK.

Oculus Quest release date, price, features and game availability

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Latest Articles from Tech Advisor September 27, 2018 at 12:22PM.)

The Oculus GO is an amazing headset that offers standalone VR at a competitive price, but it isn’t designed for gaming and lacks those high-end features that Oculus Rift users have got used to over the past few years. Thankfully, it looks like that’ll be rectified with the launch of the Oculus Quest, the first standalone headset from the company to offer full 6DOF tracking without the need for a PC or tracking stations.

The best part? Many amazing Rift games are being ported over to the Oculus Quest in time for launch, and every headset will ship with the Rift’s Oculus Touch controllers for a high-end, immersive experience. Gamers have been waiting a long time for a gaming-focused standalone VR headset, and it looks like it could finally be around the corner.

Here’s all you need to know about Oculus Quest, from the release date window to pricing details and the key features of the standalone gaming VR headset.

The Facebook Red Manifold shows what 360 content from 16 8K lenses looks like

 

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Digital Trends September 27, 2018 at 12:04PM.)

What would it look like if cinema giant Red and virtual reality powerhouse Oculus created a camera? Today, you no longer have to guess. On Wednesday, September 26, Facebook and Red unveiled the first glimpse of the Manifold, a VR camera that packs in 16 8K lens-sensor combos from RED for 6DoF captures. The camera, the companies say, is the first end-to-end solution for 3D 360 content.

360 cameras are now common, but the Manifold captures 6DoF, or six degrees of freedom, which means the viewer can move in six directions while viewing that footage and see a view similar to what you’d see if you moved that way in the real scene. The 6DoF allows what’s called volumetric data — while you can’t see the scene from the other side of the room, you can move around and see the depth and details from the people and objects in the scene.

Pangu Hackers have Jailbroken iOS 12 on Apple’s New iPhone XS

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on The Hacker News September 27, 2018 at 11:21AM.)

Bad news for Apple.

The Chinese hacking team Pangu is back and has once again surprised everyone with a jailbreak for iOS 12 running on the brand-new iPhone XS.

Well, that was really fast. Pangu jailbreak team has been quiet for a while, since it last released the untethered jailbreak tool for iOS 9 back in October 2015.

Jailbreaking is a process of removing limitations on Apple’s iOS devices so users can install third-party software not certified by Apple. Today, Android and iOS security researcher Min(Spark) Zheng shared a Tweet with two screenshots showing a working jailbreak on Apple’s newly released iPhone XS with A12 Bionic chip achieved by one of the Pangu researchers.

A Better Motor Is the First Step Towards Electric Planes

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Wired September 27, 2018 at 07:06AM.)

In a white and grey laboratory, where neat runs of orange cables on the walls provide a relief of color, a three-bladed propeller spins on the front of a Cessna “Iron Bird” test frame. It’s eerily quiet, free of the buzz you expect from a propeller-propelled aircraft. Just the whoosh of air, like a ceiling fan spinning at full speed. It’s slow at first, then faster, to the point that the blades blur out of vision, and only the bright chrome center cone is visible, as engineers at the Magnix Systems Integration Laboratory on Australia’s Gold Coast push the rig, before powering it down to a silent stop.

This is the start of airframe tests for a new motor, designed for the coming era of electric aviation. It’s a 350-horsepower machine that weighs just 110 pounds. But Magnix’s engineers focus on a different metric. “We were able to achieve 5 kW per kilogram,” says CEO Roei Ganzarski, about double the power to weight ratio of a Tesla motor. In a car, that balance is less important. At worst, a few extra pounds will add a bit of time to a 0 to 60 mph sprint or knock a few miles off the car’s range. But in a plane, the ongoing fight with gravity demands low weight coupled with high power. “If a plane doesn’t have the power to weight ratio that it needs, it simply won’t take off ,” Ganzarski says. “It becomes a safety issue.”

A startup that makes a new iPhone ultrasound device, whose chief medical officer used it to diagnose his own cancer, just raised $250 million

 

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Tech Insider September 27, 2018 at 06:05AM.)

Picture a bulky, wired-up ultrasound machine, condensed to the size of an electric razor that can plug in to your phone, and fit into your pocket.

And better yet, it costs only $2,000.

The ultrasound-on-chip is the invention of Butterfly Network, founded by Jonathan Rothberg, who also had a hand in creating Next Generation DNA-sequencing, which made the then-exclusive DNA sequencing technology a standard part of most medical practices and clinics.

The new device, named Butterfly iQ, was inspired by Rothberg’s own personal experiences. His daughter was born with a disease called tubular sclerosis, which creates tiny tumors all over the body. The treatment procedure for this requires the use of a high-frequency ultrasound and MRI-imaging.

Who We Are & Why We Need You

In 2006, a fresh-faced, Utah-raised, good-to-know-ya fella named Craig Mock, was attending Western Wyoming Community College on a Wrestling scholarship. When his roommate, Wick Taylor was brushing his teeth with a new Sonic powered Toothbrush given to him by his sister that just graduated dental hygiene school. Craig was brushing his teeth with a traditional soft bristled toothbrush while his roommate used his fancy new toothbrush that beeped every 30 seconds. This new Sonic Toothbrush was designed to beep every 30 seconds for a total of 2 minutes because the mouth can be divided into 4 quadrants, and each quadrant should be brushed for 30 seconds when using a Sonic Powered Toothbrush. Craig thought there had to be a better way.  And there is! So Craig began developing the EZ Teethbrush. After over 10 years of Research and Development, testing prototypes, countless hours, thousand and thousands of dollars invested,  the EZ Teethbrush is ready for the World. Prior to the release of the EZ Teethbrush Craig worked in the Medical Sector for several years working with durable medical equipment and pharmacutiecals.  Craig transitioned to a career working for the Department of Defense, and even worked for DCMA’s NASA Product Operations working with rocket motors as an Industrial Specialist. Applying what he learned about the manufacturing of rockets, to the manufacturing of a Sonic Powered Teethbrush. He successfully blended science and producibility.

Orbital 2: Next-generation creative joystick

The O2 offers 200 shortcuts in one high-tech joystick device to maximize time spent creating.

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to  kickstarter

About

O2 is the ultimate solution to over exertion, which brings relief to programmers all over the world. Our original patented technology sets programmers free from complicated, button based procedures by allowing them to operate with a joystick-type device with just one hand. Images that programmers and developers work with are very delicate. Even if they come up with amazing designs and ideas, a countless number of complex keyboard operations can cause them to expend a tremendous amount of energy. That energy would be better spent doing what they do best, programming! O2 is a creative device that alleviates a programmers’ fatigue by reducing the operation and physical aspects of working a standard keyboard. O2 is the best partner for your mouse, pen tablet or other keyboard based device.

O2 is a state of the art device that was developed in order to eliminate unnecessary keyboard operations. We implemented a unique mechanism that cannot be found in existing products, which resulted in both high-functionality and miniaturization. The greatest feature of O2 can be found in its versatility. O2 can be placed anywhere. It corresponds with any creative application in any field, and can be placed on a variety of surfaces such as slanted or bumpy desks. Also, the O2 was designed for ambidextrous use. Symmetry is built in. So that it can be utilized by a right or left handed programmer. O2 has liberated programmers from conventional shackles, such as keyboards, it is extremely user friendly and intuitive with the ability to perform numerous functions from one home position. The O2 boasts 3 simple features that distinguish it from other products.

The O2 offers 32 – 256 types of shortcut key and button operations for any creative software. You only need to manage three functions, “tilt”, “roll” and “push”. Control is right at your fingertips. Depending on the way you combine these functions, you can assign several hundred commands. Moreover, you can conduct complex operations continuously by combining three movements, similar to how you would execute special moves in fighting based video games.

Ergonomic design that effectively reduces the programmers’ exhaustion due to repeated movements over an extended period of time. We believe that shortcut keys are not the optimum keyboard operation method for programmers. According to our research, we found that the shortcut keyboard operation, such as Ctrl + something, actually causes damage to our hands, over time. Now, this may not be a big issue for general PC users, however, it is a cruel reality for those who often manage over 1,000 shortcut keyboard operations in an hour. This can often result in tenosynovitis, more commonly known as ‘trigger finger. We conducted a number of experiments and developed various prototypes, hence designing O2 to allow creators to use it without over exerting themselves. We altered the shape so that programmers do not have to grip it tightly, but rather gently place their hands on it. This achieves a noticeable reduction of unnecessary stress on the programmers’ hands. Even after working for long hours.

Besides its compatibility with various kinds of creative software, such as illustration software and movie (film editing) software, it can be used with anything in which the short-cut keys can be assigned. You can confirm that the O2 mode is activated by glancing at the LED light located in the lower section of the O2 device. In this way, you can toggle between multiple software programs simultaneously without confusion. Configure your custom luminous LED to suit your needs!

Use a USB cable to connect O2 to your PC. Download both software and hardware from the Portal website, and then go straight to settings. The actual operation of O2 is done by using the joystick located on the upper section of O2 called the “Orbital Engine” along with an interface located in the center called the “Flat Ring”. You can assign up to 8 functions (dial/switch) to the “Orbital Engine”, and select which function to use simply by pointing the joystick in that direction. For instance, on video editing software, you can tilt the joystick to fast-forward. Or you can rotate the joystick to move the cursor and push it when you want to stop. By combining different movements, you can continuously and easily navigate different editing tasks. With the “Orbital Engine”, you can toggle between different functions using the guide menu that appears when you tilt the joystick. The “Flat Ring” is an interface that consists of eight switches placed on the circumference of the ring. You can assign standard keyboard commands, select which menu to overlay on the screen and add functions (max. 8) to one switch. Moreover, you can move your cursor just slightly to access additional functions by using the ring-shaped UI flick menu in the center of the cursor. The O2 also provides a list menu that is perfect for your mouse operation. With these two brushed-up interfaces and no unnecessary features, we achieved a vast network with numerous operations that require less actual physical/motor movements. This makes major improvement in the work efficiency of programmers.

SAIL: An electric skateboard for everyone $319

20 Mph | 14 Miles of Range | 11 lbs | Ultra-Thin | Integrated Battery | Unbeatable Price |

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to kickstarter

About

#Update: A Tour to TeamGee Factory 

#Update: Stretch goal for $75,000: 4 different under deck graphics designs to choose from.

At Teamgee, we make the best electric board and serve the coolest people. Over the past few years, we have received many favorable comments from previous customers.

But we didn’t stop there.

SAIL is a revolutionary electric skateboard designed for everyone. At only 11 lbs in weight, you can take this ultra-thin yet powerful skateboard anywhere you go.

 Review of SAIL by Paolo

 Review of SAIL by Natalie Pluto

Whether you are a beginner or a professional, SAIL offers more fun than you could ever imagine.

Thanks to its powerful brushless motors, SAIL can travel at up to 20 mph with 14 miles of range on a single charge. It puts fun into your commute.

Feel the wind in your hair and freedom beneath your feet as you cruise along at a top speed of 20 mph. Built with 2 different speed modes, allowing you to stay comfortable on the board.

Powered by a single silent in-wheel hub motor, SAIL has a range of 14 miles and will get you where you’re going, fast.

SAIL offers an even better experience than the traditional skateboard, with all the futuristic features the traditional board doesn’t have.

SAIL is built with an advanced battery bank that is as thin as the deck itself and built right into it.

Advanced built-in battery bank
Advanced built-in battery bank

No more bulky battery packs! You don’t have to worry about damaging it or getting it wet. Just a lean, powerful board beneath your feet.

Easy to learn.

Designed to accommodate any level of expertise–from the timid amateur to the adrenaline-seeking veteran, SAIL is the easiest electric board to jump on and start cruising.

Drop Through Deck
Drop Through Deck

Thanks to its integrated battery, shorter trucks and drop through deck, Sail sits closer to the ground. This lowered center of gravity offers better rider balance and easier turning or carving. It’s for everyone.

Built to last.

The deck is made of 11-Ply Canadian Maple and Carbon Fiber, giving it a strong durability but also allowing it to bend and flex like a regular longboard. This design also allows the integrated battery cells to stay protected and bend with the board.

SAIL uses 90 mm PU wheels, meaning less drag, longer lasting, lighter, smoother brakes, and a silent ride (you will hear no extraneous sound like you’d notice on belt-driven systems).

You’ll also be able to kick push the SAIL when the battery runs out.

The in-wheel hub motors also have regenerative braking, meaning the battery recharges as you go downhill or slow down.

Regenerative braking for longer ride
Regenerative braking for longer ride

With its intuitive ergonomic remote, SAIL is easy to control. Its acceleration and deceleration respond quickly, allowing you to find the perfect speed and slow down right when you need to.

Featuring an intuitive design, SAIL’s ergonomic remote control not only allows you to control your board perfectly but also keeps you informed about your speed, battery status, and even the direction of your SAIL.

We began our business as an OEM and ODM of various electronic components, but we definitely didn’t limit ourselves. In the past few years, we have established ourselves in the E-mobility world by offering products such as the hoverboard, electric-scooter and unicycle.

In 2016, we started to get into the electric skateboard business and have been selling EXTREMELY well in the Chinese market.

A Smart Robot For Your Pet – VARRAM

A friendly, pet robot with a mobile application to keep your pet active, happy and healthy while you’re away.

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to Kickstarter

About

We created the VARRAM Pet Fitness Robot for a fun, safe way to exercise your pet.

It’s patent-pending design and high-tech abilities make it the perfect way to keep up on your pet’s fitness, whether you’re home or not.

These results indicate an estimated 50.2 million dogs and 56.5 million cats are above healthy weight, based on 2017 pet population projections provided by the American Pet Products Association (APPA).

Pets with obesity are at increased risk for developing serious weight related disorders such as diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, kidney disease, cancer, and more.

The dogs might urinate, defecate, bark, howl, chew, dig or try to escape. Separation anxiety almost always occurs within the first 20 minutes after you leave a dog alone. Leaving a puzzle toy with prizes and treats, that take up to 30 minutes to finish, can help prevent separation anxiety for your dog, while also lessening the risk of accidents and mess.

VARRAM Pet Fitness Robot is the best lifelong companion animal. It is a five stimulus artificial intelligence robot that uses a snack reward to move a pet. VARRAM Pet Fitness Robot is not just a petty toys. It is an intelligent robot that can stimulate the five senses of the pet and make the pets do exercise without constant experimentation.

Live Demo

Set Treat Time. Anytime

Do you spend long days at the office away from your pet? Reward your little friends anytime.

Durable Design

We created a design to withstand any outside pressure or impact. Especially from a larger pet.

We know that pets love to gnaw on things so we made the VARRAM Pet Fitness Robot with FDA approved polycarbonate that’s safe for your pet.

We’ve considered and tested the intense bite force of many different breeds, ages and sizes of dogs and cats.

Automatic Obstacle Avoidance

VARRAM’s advanced positioning sensor allows it to navigate any space flawlessly. You’ll never have to worry about it getting stuck. It can dodge anything in its way, and drive over large obstacles.

Easy to wash

VARRAM Pet Fitness is safe and easy to clean.

Simple Interface

By using the mobile application, you can manage play time, toss counts, sleep time and control activity routines.

In just a few clicks you can check your pet’s activity level anytime, anywhere. The app allows you to interact with friends who have similar age and breed of pets, enabling you to share and compare data!Set Routines

By using the app, you can control the robot manually or customize the actions by programming it to your pet’s personality.

You can select a preprogrammed routine or give your pet new and various experiences by creating your own routines for VARRAM to follow.

With the power of several high performance sensors to recognize the surroundings and sync with pets movements automatically, the robot has a level of artificial intelligence.

Advanced Positioning – The computer uses infrared distance sensors and IMU sensors to recognize obstacles nearby. Then it uses a large space recognition algorithm to find an appropriate space for your pet to exercise.  This technology also prevents the VARRAM from getting stuck in small spaces.

Touch Sensors – With a 9 Core IMU sensor, the VARRAM can detect the touch from your pet. It has a high speed precision position detection algorithm to recognize the location, direction and amount of the force in 3D. This pet detection technology provides endless movement patterns so your pet will never be bored!

Performance Testing – To ensure the robot can withstand the potential wear and tear from daily use, we have put the VARRAM through rigorous testing.

Jumpgate: a versatile dock for Switch&Smart Device

A powerful portable dock with detachable adaptor that can be used on Switch, laptop & smart phone.

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

A most powerful portable dock with detachable adaptor that can be used on your Nintendo Switch, laptop and smart phone. – Safe to Use – Portable – Compatibility – Tabletop Mode

Designer: Steve Jenkins


 

The Jumpgate is a sleek and portable dock has an ingenious design. It can easily switch between dock and hub mode to work with your Nintendo SWITCH, laptop and smart phone.

We have spent the past 8 months ensuring that the Jumpgate Dock and AC adaptor are safe to use. Here are the tests we ran:

  • 100 hours of non-stop charging test: We tested the PD (power delivery) chips in the Jumpgate Dock and AC adaptor to see if they delivered the proper volt and ampere to the SWITCH according to its battery level.
  • Firmware update test: We updated the firmware when the console was connected with the Jumpgate Dock. Check out the videos:
  • Plugging test: We checked to see whether the Jumpgate Dock could automatically switch between TV and tabletop mode when the USB-C and HDMI was connected or disconnected.



The Pop-up design creates a gap, which allows the air circulation to enter the vents on the back of SWITCH.

The detachable Core Drive can be used on your SWITCH without the dock.

The Jumpgate Dock can also work with the Nintendo dock.


The Core drive can disengage from the dock.

The 5 degrees of adjustable range allows you to dock your Switch with or without a protective case.

The guide pillar can be detached to fit most third-party cases.

It allows you to dock your SWITCH with most third-party cases on the market.

The Jumpgate will automatically switch to Tabletop Mode if there is no signal (coming) from the HDMI port.

Enjoy gaming without worrying about running out of juice.


A kickstand provides two viewing angles for Tabletop Mode.

The Core Drive provides all the necessary ports you need in daily life.

It’s easy to switch.

The built-in DeX function can turn your smart phone into a computer if it has the DEX function like SAMSUNG Galaxy S9 and S8.


Expand the storage capacity of your phone and transfer photos and data easily and quickly.

Literally, it can be used on all your electronic devices, such as smart phones (fast charging) and laptops (full power for both 13” and 15” laptops, but the charging speed will be slower on 15” laptops to compare with the 87w AC adaptors). The detachable 5’/1.5 meter USB-C (C to C) cable is included, which provides up to 100W charging power and high speed data transmission.

Projects such as this one are required a number of molds to be made upfront, as well as a minimum order quantity needed to get this off the ground. After more the 8 months polishing and testing, we are ready to make the Jumpgate a reality!

We need your help to spread the word about The Jumpgate. Every post, share, and pledge counts! Thanks for your support!

NIU: The Electric Scooter Reimagined

“With its simple and elegant design… NIU is very likely to become the new Vespa!” Forbes.

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

NIU is optimistic about the future of living in cities. We are here to free you from urban congestion, and to inspire you to unlock the potential of your city.
– World’s #1 Smart eScooter
– Bosch Motor + Panasonic Battery
– 100km+ on a single-charge
– APP Connected
– GPS Security
– €0.30* / 100km ON MOBILE:


Today, we are introducing the all-new NGT and M+; two smart electric scooters that bring you the perfect balance of speed and range. Since all of our scooters are connected, you can check things like location, estimated riding range, and even anti-theft alerts straight from your phone.

 

 

Today’s launch is no rehearsal for us; we’ve been designing and building smart electric scooters since 2015. In just three short years, our scooters have clocked more than 1 billionkilometers across the globe.

The NGT is our most powerful scooter. The NGT has a 3kW Bosch motor that cranks out a top speed of 70km/h, and a range of well over 100 km thanks to its two removable Panasonic batteries. You can easily drive all week on just a single charge of your batteries.

The NPro is the addition you were all asking for. It is an NGT that is capped at 45 km/h. No other differences, exactly the same specs. So in countries like Germany, you only need a car license to drive it, NOT a motorbike license. You asked, we listened.

The M+ is the newest model in our M-Series: winner of 5+ International Design Awards. It’s sexy, practical and built for 2 riders. The M+ effortlessly zips around urban streets, boulevards and alleys at 45 km/h with a real city riding range of well over 100 km.

The NGT and M+ are both equipped with industry-leader BOSCH brushless hubmounted 3kW and 1.2kW motors respectively. The BOSCH 3kW motor easily accelerates up to 70 km/h.

The NGT and M+ are electrified by our Panasonic Lithium-ion removable battery packs. A single charge takes just 3.5 hours and provides a range of well over 100 km of riding. At under 14/11 kg respectively, you can easily carry the battery into your home and charge it in any standard wall outlet, just like your computer.

The NGT and M+ have an on-board computer that constantly communicates with the cloud so you can view real-time data on your smart phone like GPSrecent rides, and even anti-theft alerts. We also provide regular Over The Air Updates (OTA) that gets you the most updated software for your scooter.

The NGT comes standard with CBS for safe-braking at high speeds. Both the NGT and M+ come equipped with regenerative EBS braking, which effectively adds around 5% morerange on a single charge.

Our campaign is a little different than what you are typically accustomed to on Indiegogo, as we will only be taking a €100 deposit today, and the full and final payment will be made at the store you choose to pick-up your scooter at in January when we make delivery.

During our 30-day campaign here on Indiegogo you can make a €100 deposit for the NGT, NPro, or the M+.  This €100 deposit will get you a discount off the 2019 retail price. By making a deposit today you will save €300 on the M+, and €500 on the NGT and NPro when you pick it up at the store.

*The suggested retail price of €2599 and €4499 is based on a 19% Value Added Tax.

So from now until October 26th we will be taking  your €100 deposit for the scooter of your choice. Within a few days after the campaign on Indiegogo finishes you will receive an email from us to 1) Select the color of scooter you would like and 2) Select the store/dealer you will pick-up and make your final payment for your scooter.

As a token of your support, the first 3000 backers will receive an exclusive gift package worth €300+, containing the following:

1x Helmet case stand // 1x Back Rest //  1x Phone Holder

 1x Scooter Rain Cover // 1x Winter Leg Cover // 3 Years Data Service

 

Over the past three years we have been covered around the world from Forbes to TechCrunch to Auto Bild and many more. Google and Youtube search NIU to read and watch the reviews…

 

Cities are there to be explored, and we’re providing an awesome mobility solution to #unlockyourcity We are all about changing your daily commute, where you can park, where and how you can charge, and even how you re-experience your city for the first time on a silent ride.

NIU technology is making congestion and traffic problems of the past. Start your day with a fun commute that saves money, time and even helps the environment.

Urban parking is always stressful. As cities cut down on parking spaces, the practicality of owning a scooter makes finding a spot unnecessary. With NIU, you can park closer to your destination for little to no cost at all.

Our removable batteries allow you to charge your NIU any time you have access to a standard power outlet. With our all-new fast-charging batteries, you can be fully charged in just 3.5 hours.

Weighing in at less than 14 kg and 11 kg respectively, our NGT and M+ batteries are easy to carry to and from your scooter. You can charge at home, or charge at the office and your boss will be paying for your “electric gas”.

When you ride a NIU, you will have a whole new connection with the city you live in; we call it “Niuvana”- it’s the sensation you have when riding electric and you can hear, feel, and see the city around you like you have never before.

 

We’ve been working on NGT and M+ for over two years now. With your support, we will bring them worldwide by January 2019.  Within a few days after the campaign on Indiegogo finishes on October 26th you will receive an email from us to 1) Select the color of scooter you would like and 2) Select the store/dealer you will pick-up and make your final payment for your scooter.

All along the way you will get updates from our team to give you a status of update on the production, shipment, and arrival of your selected scooter.  Once the scooter arrives at your local store/dealer, you will receive an email from us to tell you it is time for pick-up. You will make your final payment, less the €100 deposit you paid here online.

Here is a list of stores that you can currently pick-up at…more coming online soon:

https://www.niu.com/en/niu-store-finder/

 

Since our launch, NIU has gone from an idea, to the #1 Smart Electric Scooter brand in the world. From Shanghai – Paris – Santiago, you can see NIU zipping around globally across cities.

Hey, Ford built a self-driving truck too!

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

With the F-Vision, Ford too jumps onto the autonomous-truck bandwagon, and why shouldn’t they? Autonomous trucks, if done right, benefit everyone. They’re safer, they can work day and night (bringing down the cost of logistics), they work on holidays too, and autonomous trucks don’t unionize (yet).

The F-Vision, unveiled at the Hanover Motor Show, however, won’t be completely autonomous. The silver, curvaceous vehicle comes with Level 4 autonomy, which means there’s a human overseeing the truck’s decisions, either within the truck, or remotely. This explains why the F-Vision comes with a cockpit, a windshield, and a very discernible human-sized door. I’m not a fan of the halftone detail on the windshield, personally… but it’s the prospect of self-driving logistics that excites me more than anything else.

THE DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT & MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Made with Passion and Knowledge.

The A3 doesn’t just grow on a tree. We’d love to give you the insights of how our products are designed and manufactured, from the bottom up:

The product development cycle starts with weeks of planning, research, calculating, drawing, testing,…
 

When the concept and prototypes are in their final stage and conformity tests are passed, we can move forward to the manufacturing stage. Here’s an overview of the steps we go through before we can deliver a LIFEPOWR A3 into your hands:

First molds are crafted for both the Aluminum housing and ABS inner case:

Many core components are made by a range of suppliers, who excel within their niche.
The outer cases are first extruded from Aluminum sheets, then moved to a CNC-milling plant.

  

Afterwards, they get their surface-finishing steps: anodization and finally brushing.

 

The Battery cells are first tested one by one for a full cycle to confirm their capacity and then soldered together into a pack.
A specialized company supplies the Printed Circuit Boards, after which our Surface Mounting Technology machines components onto the board. The final larger components are soldered by hand onto the PCB.

All of these components are then brought together to be assembled together in the final stage.

When completed,  the A3 goes to the Quality Control section: all functions are individually tested, and if approved they move to an aging room. Here they get a full discharge and charge cycle. Afterward, they again receive a full functionality test and if approved they move towards the packing line, where together with the charger, cable, manual etc., they are packed and boxed and shipped to our warehouses in the USA and Belgium.

 

MEET THE TEAM

The LIFEPOWR family

RISKS & CHALLENGES

Although we’ve done this before,  there are always unforeseen circumstances that can slow down a product development and production process. No project is without risks and challenges, but we thrive to minimize them as best as we can. A new product also means a new conformity testing process that may result in redesign iterations. For example, meeting EMC-directives might require additional components which result in a PCB redesign that is larger than the original spec.

Some of the extended goals, however great that we can realize them thanks to the gathered funds, will require extra development time. Please understand that delivering on more products than initially planned might postpone deliveries.

Tractors in 2040 sure look intense

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

I never thought I’d say this, but I actually prefer this tractor concept over my own car… errr… almost any car, for that matter. It’s called the Valtra H202 and it’ll put your hooptie to shame!

Designed as part of the Valtra Design Challenge, the vision is for the year 2040. As clean as it is mean looking, it’s powered by an advanced hydrogen fuel cell/electric engine that results in enormous, consistent torque. As fun as it looks to drive, it’s meant to rely on autonomous operation, remote control via app, and laser guidance to enhance safety and efficiency in the field. Despite its aggressive, ultra-modern look that’s almost reminiscent of a monster truck, it’s an obvious evolution of the archtypical form of the tractor, making it instantaneously recognizeable.

Bloomengine: A Stress-free Indoor Planter + Smartphone App

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

About

Bloomengine, a beautiful smart planter, offers the new concept of indoor green life for all plant lovers!

With Bloomengine’s innovative technology, plants can be monitored, watered, and cared for any time, anywhere. Bloomengine is perfect for the plant-lover looking to experience a seed sprout, bud, and bloom in the convenience of their own home.

Bloomengine is specialized for plant growth by creating a natural-like environment with soil, water, minerals, air, and sunlight.

Sunlight with a specific spectrum and correct wavelength working differently depending on the plant’s level of growth (sprout, growth and blossom) is essential. As you know, all plants depend on the sun for survival.

We have applied enough brightness (about 10~25k lux) and light wavelength (about 380nm~780nm) of LED lighting to Bloomengine shown so you can easily grow plants indoors.

Watering with soil is needed for a flower to bloom and to maintain the plant’s overall health. Recent products like hydroponics are concentrated on herbs and edibles.

A pump in the upper & lower tank circulates the water.
A pump in the upper & lower tank circulates the water.

Using soil offers suitable conditions for regular wet and dry periods with minerals which are essential for flowers. The right structure and microbial ecology in the soil help your plants grow healthy.

Transpiration is the process that helps keep the plant control its temperature. It also supports photosynthesis and encourages the exchange of gases in the atmosphere.

The micro-fan inside circulates the air inside.
The micro-fan inside circulates the air inside.

Rain is the natural weather condition that occurs when water from the ocean precipitates as the result of water circulation. It is an essential factor for plants growth overall.

Aurora, the arcane phenomenon, is a beautiful lighting curtain of a planet produced by the sun.

※ Depending on the seed germination rate and indoor environmental conditions, using Bloomengine may not bud.(Typical seed germination rate about 70 ~ 90%, recommended room temperature 74 ~ 83 ℉ / 22 ~ 28 ℃)

Bloomengine offers a more joyful indoor gardening environment with new functionalities to the everyday planter. Experience a new concept of planting with technology for gardening.

The pre-installed Full HD camera shows your plant’s real-time status via photos. You can select the time-lapse function to capture the unbelievable moments of your plant growing at each stage.

You can easily customize environmental conditions for your plants via the Bloomengine application available for Android and iOS devices. Watering and lighting times can be scheduled and even time-lapse can be set according to you and your plant’s preferences.

Watching your plant grow will make you excited to share the experience with your friends and family.

Bloomengine aims to provide an environment of indoor cultivation for plants using the latest technology. Why?

Save Plant Extinction

Across the planet, plants are threatened with extinction and are expected to disappear within several years. Beautiful flowers you see now could be considered historic species for future generations.

To prevent further plant extinction, Bloomengine will continue to develop newer products and share data on plants to safely and effectively cultivate an environment that can save plants from extinction.

 Plant Book and Dictionary

Today, we can gather facts about plants from only photos and vague data. It is difficult to understand information about plants or to experience a wonderful moment like a flower’s first bloom with such non-descriptive information.

Our plan is for Bloomengine users to share growth information with each other like sprouting times, growth progress, and first blooms with the best environmental condition and time-lapse videos, so people can easily understand the plant’s lifecycle. This would be shared in our community or on Wikipedia as text data or GIF files.

Share The Moment

Our goal is not only to make better conditions for your plant indoors but also to help build bonds between people and plants.

We believe that Bloomengine will help everyone understand plants better and share the amazing moments of plants with others.

For A Better Place

We want to create better interior spaces through Bloomengine.

Bloomengine’s design goals are (1) Making it easy to grow plants indoors. (2) It does not make the product stand out, but instead, makes the plant stand out. (3) It uses a simple design that will suit various indoor spaces.

You can make your interior space more special with Bloomengine. Always be with your pet-plants in your own home.

Qkey | Secure Online Payments and Eliminate Passwords Forever

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

uQontrol is eliminating passwords forever. Our patented Qkey replaces the way we shop online with a more intuitive mobile experience that is as safe, natural, and familiar as purchases made at brick-and-mortar stores.

Just as Chip and PIN secured offline credit card transactions, Qkey protects all your online transactions with the same technology, while providing greater functionality during the online shopping experience.

Passwords are meant to protect our sensitive data and information from those who wish to steal or exploit it. But here’s the (somewhat ironic) rub with passwords: they’re easily stolen.

Let’s face it: passwords suck.

The Federal Trade Commission reports that identity theft continues to be the #1 consumer concern regarding passwords.

70% of all bank card fraud is online.

64% of consumers are extremely or very concerned
of having their sensitive information compromised.

Don’t we all deserve a more secure online experience? The market is inundated with “virtual” solutions that don’t adequately address the root cause of online privacy, namely passwords, keyloggers, and browser hacks.

“Does anyone really want Google Chrome to save their password?”

Qkey removes payment card data, passwords, and other personal data from your computer, browser, and web servers, and securely stores it all on the encrypted digital Qkey stored in your pocket–using the same Chip and PIN techology that secures your credit cards.

The Qkey is a physical piece of hardware that has its own secured browser and software built in. Simply shop online as you normally would, but never have to enter or remember passwords or payment information again!

Qkey provides customers with a more secure online experience by eliminating the points of attack in which you are most vulnerable to potential hackers.

6 Steps to Security

Qkey looks like… well, a key. When you go online, take it from your pocket and plug it into your computer’s USB port. Or if you’re paying on your mobile device, Qkey will communicate with your phone using NFC.

1. Insert Qkey into the USB port of the computer.

2. Enter the verification code provided with your key (just like when you get a credit card).

3. Set your 4-digit (minimum) pin number.

4. Enter in all your payment info (credit/debit cards, PayPal, Bitcoin, Google Wallet, etc.), and all shipping locations (home, office, family members, etc.).

5. Select your favorite retailers and your preferred payment method/shipping for each. Qkey will store quick link icons of their websites.

6. Within the Qkey browser, shop as you would normally shop. And in the process,

Turn a card-not-present transaction into a card-present transaction…

Turn virtual security into physical security…

With Qkey.

After completing our MVP in mid 2014 and our hardware and security software integration in Q1 of 2016, we’re currently ramping up for the release of our beta. We estimate that the full product launch will happen in miid to late Q2 2016.

We have qualified our production partner with first article and beta builds and started high level discussions with numerous potential distribution and co-branding partners.


We have also conducted numerous consumer surveys spanning university students to blue and white collar professionals. The surveys provided overwhelmingly positive feedback on the form, fit, and function of product. 


We have secured a design patent and numerous utility patents pending for the security framework, Chip and PIN key, and mobile pin pad.


Even though in “stealth” mode, we have been approached by one of the largest airlines in the US and have a request for a meeting by another to discuss private white label keys for their frequent flyer credit card holding customers.

We are also in discussions with a large bank and international security company that have reached out to us with significant interest. Other discussions include working towards an LOI with a regional bank to take this product to their customer base.

We have significant manufacturing partnerships in Asia and are in discussions with one of the world’s largest EMS companies who is currently competing for our manufacturing contract.

Up next: Successfully launch the beta and full product online, with a co-branded banking partner beta to run in parallel, and retail placement positioned for the 2016 holiday season. This retail push will be directed to high-end electronic retailers. We are also in discussions for growing our customer base through corporate relationships such as antivirus, monitoring, and malware protection software services.

LUMI – Self-Sanitizing Toilet Brush and Base

 

Your daily selection of the latest crowdfunding projects!

According to

 

LUMI FANS …

It’s no secret that the toilet brush is the grossest thing in the bathroom. But even when the smears and smudges seem to be gone, the bacteria and germs are not!

Often times, bathrooms are cleaned just enough to pass the Visual Inspection but, while that may earn you a (check mark) on the list of daily chores, it doesn’t protect you or other people using the bathroom!

Current toilet brush and base systems just perpetuate what we call the GERM CYCLE. This is simply the transfer of germs and bacteria from one location to the other, and never really getting rid of the ecoli.

Your toilet bowl can house over 3.5 MILLION bacteria, per square inch

It’s possible to disinfect your toilet brush, but that would require you to do one of the following…

You work hard to clean the toilet, then you put the brush back into a moist, dirty, dark base and let the cycle start all over again.

Let LUMI do the work for you! LUMI utilizes germ killing UV lights that clean your brush for you!

(Base & brush are white, NOT black)
(Base & brush are white, NOT black)

LUMI is an innovative Toilet Brush Base that uses UV lights to kill germs. When you place your brush in the base, it goes through a germ killing cycle then turns off until you need it again.

STOP THE GERM CYCLE:

Now with the LUMI Self-Sanitizing base- we kill those germs at their home base before they have a chance to grow again.

THE SCIENCE IS IN THE BASE

After cleaning, simply return the brush to the base. The Smart base recognizes the brush has been returned to storage and the cleaning cycle begins!

STORE

SANITIZE

In order to kill bacteria and have a “germicidal” effect, UV light wavelength needs to be between 180 and 280 nanometers.

The LUMI Base has been coated with reflective aluminium to maximize the effectiveness of the germ killing UV light.

Peak germicidal effectiveness occurs at 265 nanometers which is the UV wavelength of the LEDs used in the LUMI base.

It’s important to note that the 265nm UV Light wavelength is hardly visible to the naked eye. We’ve added addition Blue LEDs to make sure you know when the cycle is running and when it’s done. Additionally, the Blue light contains wavelengths that have been shown to stunt growth in or kill E. Coli and Staph, so it’s a really a 2-in-1 system.

In order to make LUMI unique and with the goal of delivering the best product on the market, we focused on a few key features:

  •  Heavy duty build. We didn’t want something that felt like it was going to break after a few uses. LUMI is a long-term investment!
  •  Sleek Design. The role of the toilet brush has always been to “stay as hidden as possible”. With LUMI, our goal was to come up with a sleek design that complements the bathroom and isn’t an eye sore; we’re very happy with the final design!
  •  Improved Functionality. LUMI solves 3 key problems of toilet brushes currently available on the market: 1.Fostering germ growth.  2.Falling over and sliding. 3.Visible and Messy

With germ-killing UV lights, a weighted base with anti-slide grips, and an auto-open/close system, LUMI has solved each of these problems!

Apple Releases macOS Mojave With Dark Mode, Stacks, Dynamic Desktop and More

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on MacRumors September 24, 2018 at 01:00PM.)

Apple today released the newest version of its operating system for Macs, macOS Mojave, to the public. macOS Mojave is a free download that’s available today for anyone who has a compatible Mac, and it comes after 11 rounds of betas.

macOS Mojave can be downloaded from the Mac App Store, with a direct link to the download available here.

Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos.

macOS Mojave is a significant update to macOS, introducing a new systemwide Dark Mode, with Mojave users able to choose between a light theme or the new dark theme, which changes the color of the dock, menu bar, apps, and other elements.

Dark Mode is accompanied by Dynamic Desktops, aka wallpapers that subtly change throughout the day to mimic the progress of the sun across the sky outside.

In the afternoon, for example, the lighting of the Mojave Desert wallpaper is at its peak brightness and the image of the desert is depicted as it would be if you visited it in the daytime with well-lit sand dunes and a bright blue sky.

At night, the sky in the wallpaper shifts to darker blue to reflect that it’s now evening. The shift between daytime and nighttime happens gradually over the course of the day, so you’ll see subtle changes each time you look at your Mac’s display. It’s a neat new feature that can be enabled in the Desktop & Screensaver section of preferences.

macOS Mojave also includes Stacks, a new desktop organization system that keeps desktop files neat and organized to cut down on clutter. The Finder window has been enhanced with a new Gallery View for previewing larger versions of photos and documents, a Sidebar for easier navigation, a revamped Quick Look option for quick document editing, and Quick Actions, so you can do more in the Finder window than ever before.

Screenshots that you take on the Mac can now be edited using built-in Markup tools and a new management options that also allow for easy screen recording. Continuity camera, a useful new feature, allows you to import photos and document scans directly from an iPhone or iPad to the Mac.

The Apple News, Stocks, Home, and Voice Memos apps have been ported from iOS to macOS as part of a multiyear project Apple is working on to make it easier to bring iOS apps to Macs, and Apple has introduced several new privacy protections to keep your data safer than ever.

Apple is also making it harder for websites to track you with a range of new Safari tools, and it’s also easier to make and store secure, hard-to-guess passwords for each and every website.

Apple has added an entirely revamped Mac App Store to macOS Mojave that makes it easier to discover apps with a featured section and specific categories for games, creative apps, productivity apps, apps for developers, and more.

macOS Mojave was initially supposed to include a Group FaceTime feature that includes support for chatting with up to 32 people at one time, but it was removed in the macOS Mojave beta and will be introduced in a future Mojave update.

macOS Mojave drops support for many older Macs compared to macOS High Sierra and it is compatible primarily with machines manufactured in 2012 or later. A full list of Macs that can run Mojave is below:

 

 

 

 

    • iMac (Late 2012 or newer)

 

 

    • Mac Pro (Late 2013, plus mid 2010 and mid 2012 models with recommended Metal-capable GPU)

 
For more details on all of the features included in macOS Mojave, make sure to check out our macOS Mojave roundup.

The world’s first floating farm will house 40 cows and be hurricane-resistant

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Business Insider September 24, 2018 at 09:24AM.)

  • The Dutch company Beladon is opening the world’s first floating dairy farm in the Netherlands.
  • Located in Rotterdam, the farm will house 40 cows in a high-tech facility on the water.
  • Minke van Wingerden, one of the project’s leaders, told Business Insider that the farm will produce an average of 211 gallons of milk each day.
  • Most of the cows’ food will come from city waste products, such as grains left over from local breweries and by-products from mills.
  • Beladon is also interested in launching floating chicken farms and floating vertical farming greenhouses.

A Dutch company is set to debut the world’s first floating dairy farm near Amsterdam.

A high-tech, multilevel facility will soon be floating in the water in Rotterdam, located roughly 50 miles outside of Amsterdam. Minke van Wingerden, a partner at the property development company Beladon, told Business Insider that the 89-by-89 foot farm will produce an average of 211 gallons of milk each day.

The facility will have 40 cows, which is fairly typical for a small dairy farm in the Netherlands.

iPhone XS Max destroys Galaxy Note 9 in first real-life speed test

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on BGR September 24, 2018 at 08:47AM.)

Apple’s new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max were finally released this past weekend after what seemed to some people like an impossibly long wait. Considering details surrounding the new XS and XS Max first started leaking before last year’s iPhone X was even released, it’s not exactly a surprise that the wait felt so long for Apple fans. The phones are now here though, and Apple fans seem to be quite happy with them overall. The iPhone XS marks what is undoubtedly the smallest year-over-year upgrade compared to the iPhone X from 2017, but “S” phones are typically designed for people who upgrade every two years or even every three or for years. For them, the iPhone XS and XS Max will be a complete reimagining of the iPhone experience. For people who do have an iPhone X from last year, all the iPhone XS really has to offer is a new gold color, a new option with a bigger display, and improved performance. The good news, however, is that the aforementioned performance improvements are massive.

Emergency Rooms Say People Are Getting Really Hurt on Electric Scooters

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Gizmodo September 24, 2018 at 12:24PM.)

A new report from the Washington Post found that emergency rooms have seen a spike in incidents involving electric scooters. One particular hospital in Salt Lake City reported a 161 percent increase in scooter injuries—from eight injuries over a four-month time span in 2017 to 21 in that same time period this year.

“Most of the patients with these injuries specifically reported that they were riding an e-scooter or a rental scooter,” Troy Madsen, a doctor at the University of Utah Health’s Emergency Department, told the Washington Post. “Interestingly, more than 80 percent of the injuries this year happened between Aug. 15 and Sept. 15, which would correspond with the increasing popularity and availability of the e-scooters.”

Madsen also reportedly pointed out that the individuals who came into the emergency department with injuries were between 20 and 50 years old and “often” hurt themselves trying to stop a fall. The Washington Post story included other injury-related details provided by hospitals:

NASA’s planet hunter satellite gets first hit in its search for another Earth

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Digital Trends September 21, 2018 at 04:02PM.)

Relocating is complicated enough when you’re simply moving to a new city. Scientists at NASA have taken property searches up an infinite number of levels, however, as they search for another Earth.

NASA’s planet-hunting team turned up a potential relocation candidate on the first pass with a new satellite. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) uses four wide-field, 16.8MP cameras designed and built by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory to capture detailed images of stars and other objects in space. The goal is to identify previously unknown exoplanets for further study.

TESS recently began a two-year mission to scan the southern and northern skies. During the mission, TESS will study an unprecedented 85 percent of the sky — an expanse 350 times greater than NASA’s earlier Kepler mission.

Snapchat lets you take a photo of an object to buy it on Amazon

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TechCrunch September 24, 2018 at 02:51PM.)

See, snap, sale. In a rare partnership for Amazon, the commerce giant will help Snapchat challenge Instagram and Pinterest for social shopping supremacy. Today Snapchat announced it’s slowly rolling out a new visual product search feature, confirming TechCrunch’s July scoop about this project, codenamed “Eagle.”

Users can use Snapchat’s camera to scan a physical object or barcode, which brings up a card showing that item and similar ones along with their title, price, thumbnail image, average review score and Prime availability. When they tap on one, they’ll be sent to Amazon’s app or site to buy it. Snapchat determines if you’re scanning a song, QR Snapcode or object, and then Amazon’s machine vision tech recognizes logos, artwork, package covers or other unique identifying marks to find the product. It’s rolling out to a small percentage of U.S. users first before Snap considers other countries.

VW’s ‘affordable’ electric car to be offered in 3 battery configurations starting at ~$30,000, report says

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Electrek September 24, 2018 at 11:26AM.)

VW is expected to launch an electric vehicle based on the I.D. concept, the VW Neo, next year. It is expected to be the Volkswagen Group’s first mass-market ‘affordable’ electric car.

The vehicle is expected to be offered in 3 different battery pack configurations based on the MEB platform and will start at around $30,000, according to a new report.

Before even unveiling the concept in 2016, VW announced that it would beat the Model 3 and Model X in electric range by misrepresenting the NEDC-rated range of the Model 3.

Last year, VW claimed that it will have a NEDC-rated range of “400 to 600 km” (~250 to 375 miles) depending on the battery pack configuration.

Now Christian Senger, VW’s Head of Product Line for E-Mobility, updated the numbers based on the more accurate WLTP range via Auto Express:

Google Search Just Got The Biggest Overhaul in Years

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on News Tom’s Guide September 24, 2018 at 05:05PM.)

At an event in San Francisco, Google announced a number of changes to its search engine.  The big takeaway is that Google search is getting a lot more visual, and that the company wants to bring relevant content to the forefront.

Google also isn’t shy about copying features that work for social networking platforms, such as Stories. Credit: Google

Discover

The most significant new feature is a new “Discover” news feed that will appear below the default Google search bar on mobile browsers. Like Facebook’s news feed, Discover will show “relevant” content, rather prioritizing chronological order. Content will appear based on your engagement and browsing history.

Discover will come with a slider that you can use to increase or decrease the amount of news you’re seeing. Bilingual users will be able to see Spanish items as well as those in English.

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Pocketnow September 24, 2018 at 06:00AM.)

This year marks the start of the 7nm processor war. Interestingly, Huawei was the first one to announce a 7nm SoC, with its Kirin 980.

How Razer forged the Blade 15, the slim gaming laptop nobody else could build

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Digital Trends September 24, 2018 at 06:24AM.)

Take a walk down the shopping hub of downtown San Francisco, and it’s hard to miss Razer’s street-level storefront. People off the sidewalk are invited in to be dazzled by the spectacle of the live DJ’s thumping music and flashing lights. That’s certainly represents one aspect of Razer’s ethos.

But just a few blocks away is a non-descript, mid-level high-rise where the magic behind Razer’s designs are crafted. Secured doors conceal prototypes, sketches, and mockups for products that have yet to be launched — and like other tech companies in the Valley, employees treat the space as their own garage. Strip away the thumpa-thumpa music and the club-like decadence, and you’ll find the simpler aspect of Razer’s approaches design – methodical, purposeful, and devoid of unnecessary excesses.That was the space Razer invited us into to hear the story of how the Blade 15 came to be. It’s a gaming laptop that fully embodies that design philosophy both in terms of how it looks and how it performs.

Google quietly started logging people into Chrome without their consent, and a security expert says it’s terrible for privacy (GOOGL)

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Tech Insider September 24, 2018 at 04:41AM.)

  • A security expert has discovered that Google had quietly made important changes to Chrome’s login requirements.
  • Matthew Green spotted that Google was logging them into Chrome without their knowledge.
  • Google’s changes also made it easier for users to unwittingly turn over their browsing history to Google.
  • The company acknowledged the changes late on Sunday, but stressed that users needed to consent to a sync before their browser data was transferred.

For years, Google has given Chrome users the option of surfing the web without logging in.

But on Sunday, a security expert wrote that Google had quietly changed the requirements so when users login into a Google service, such as Gmail, Chrome will automatically sign the browser into their account without consent.

Google tucked the new login requirements into the latest Chrome update without notifying users, Matthew Green, a cryptography expert and professor at Johns Hopkins University, said in a blog post on Sunday.

Alaska Airlines is offering VR movies during certain flights

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Engadget September 24, 2018 at 09:06AM.)

(Cover image) Allosky

Some first class Alaska Airlines passengers might find themselves face to face with a virtual reality headset rather than the plane’s usual in-flight entertainment system. The airline will pilot SkyLights’ Allosky Cinematic VR headset aboard its Seattle-Boston and Boston-San Diego routes. It will give passengers access to immersive 3D and forward-facing 360 degree films, though they can also choose to watch in 2D in case the combination of 3D and plane travel is a bit too much to handle.

Musk’s Boring Company starts hiring key personnel in preparation for tunnel projects

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TESLARATI.com September 24, 2018 at 07:01AM.)

Posted on

As The Boring Company starts preparing for its growing list of tunneling projects, the startup has begun filling in a number of key positions that would enable it to bring Elon Musk’s vision of futuristic, high-speed tunnel systems into reality. Several key hires have already been filled by the company, and based on the job positions listed on its official website; the Boring Co. seems to be looking to expand its workforce even more.

The Boring Company’s apparent hiring efforts are considered a strategic choice for the startup, considering that it is currently involved in several initiatives that would require manpower. Back in June alone, The Boring Company won a high-profile contract to build an ultra high-speed tunnel system connecting downtown Chicago to O’Hare airport, beating out large contractors also bidding on the project. The initiative, which will utilize Elon Musk’s Loop System concept, is expected to begin as soon as permits and all the paperwork are completed.

Chicago is only one of the startup’s projects. The Boring Co. is also preparing for other initiatives, such as the 3.6-mile Dugout Loop in Los Angeles, which would help commuters travel to and from Dodgers Stadium. Permits for a tunnel system designed to enable travel between New York and Washington D.C. in less than 30 minutes have also been filed.

To aid the company in its series of projects, The Boring Co. has hired several key personnel, among them being Mike Wongkaew, who used to work for Mott MacDonald, which is part of the consortium that lost to the tunneling startup in the bid for the Chicago-O’Hare project. Wongkaew, who worked for Mott MacDonald as a principal engineer for structures and tunnel design manager, started his employment with the Boring Company last April as the startup’s chief tunnel engineer.

Apple Expands Push Into Corporate Sales By Partnering With Salesforce

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Tech – Fortune September 24, 2018 at 09:06AM.)

Apple and Salesforce have entered into a broad partnership that includes developing technology together and promoting each other’s products.

The alliance, announced Monday to coincide with Salesforce’s annual Dreamforce developer conference in San Francisco, pairs a consumer technology giant with a major force in online software for salespeople that is also dabbling in a number of other areas like word processing and business presentation software.

The partnership is intended to give Apple more access to corporate sales, an area it increasingly wants to expand into from its dominant position in consumer electronics. Salesforce, meanwhile, hopes to cater to the businesses that are big users of Apple’s products.

The two companies have previously worked together in a far more limited way, as a natural consequence of sharing certain business customers. But Apple vice president of product marketing Susan Prescott said the partnership formalized the relationship and opened the door to more collaboration starting with cross-promoting each others products to customers and encouraging their corporate re-sellers to do the same.

Tesla Model 3 Performance wins over longtime BMW enthusiast: ‘this is an iPhone moment’

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TESLARATI.com September 24, 2018 at 03:42AM.)

Posted on

Indie app developer Moshen Chan has been an avid BMW enthusiast for ~20 years. Having a passion for high-speed driving, he has spent a lot of time experiencing the legacy automaker’s Ultimate Driving Machines firsthand. Moshen now drives a Tesla Model 3 Performance, after a test drive with the electric sedan proved that it was a powerful, feature-ridden, and compelling vehicle that could very well be beyond anything that the German veteran automaker currently has to offer.

The indie app developer shared his experience in a series of lengthy posts on a BMW forum, Bimmerfest.com. Chan notes that over the years, he has driven several BMWs, and today, he owns a modified E36 325i with track suspension setup, as well as an E82 135i with Performance Suspension and several other M3 suspension part upgrades. Being in the market for a new vehicle, he was looking at the BMW M2 Competition, the latest iteration of the BMW M3, and lastly, the Tesla Model 3 Performance.

Why T-Mobile Is Rebranding MetroPCS to ‘Metro by T-Mobile’

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Tech – Fortune September 24, 2018 at 09:06AM.)

More than five years after T-Mobile’s super-successful acquisition of MetroPCS, the carrier is overhauling its branding and market positioning to attract more customers.

MetroPCS, which had largely kept its separate identity after being acquired, focuses on the so-called prepaid segment of the wireless market, requiring customers to pay up-front every month and typically targeting people with weak or no credit histories and lower incomes. Since T-Mobile bought the unit, its subscriber base has more than doubled to 18 million as the brand spread from just 12 markets to about 100 nationwide currently.

Now T-Mobile (tmus) wants to make big changes. Starting in October, MetroPCS will be renamed “Metro by T-Mobile” and will add two higher-end unlimited data plans—at higher prices—in an effort to appeal to a broader customer audience. New advertising will emphasize that its service runs on the same wireless network as T-Mobile. And aligning itself with several other popular brands, both of Metro’s new unlimited plans will include at no additional cost cloud storage from Google’s Google One program and one plan will also include Amazon Prime, the e-commerce giant’s free delivery and video programming service.

Watch Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid vs M5, E63 S In Top Gear Drag Race

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Inside EVs September 24, 2018 at 08:04AM.)

We saw the same competitors a few months ago, but this time the outcome is different.

Here’s an awesome bit of drag racing (on a closed airfield of course) to help you usher in the weekend. Top Gear lined up three super German machines for a friendly contest of speed, starting with the BMW M5. Next up is the Mercedes-AMG E63 S, and rounding out the trio is a Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo. If the contestants seem familiar somehow, they should  – Autocar did virtually the same race a couple months ago with one very notable difference. The Porsche in this lineup is the heavier Sport Turismo versus the sedan. And yes, that extra mass does make a difference.

What’s next for Surface Hub 2

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Windows Blog September 24, 2018 at 09:06AM.)

Surface Hub 2’s light, sleek and intelligent design starts to ship in Q2 2019

Surface Hub 2 enables the power of collaborative work, allowing businesses to unlock the full potential of their greatest resource – people.  As work changes – thanks to the ongoing digital revolution and a shift to non-traditional work spaces – fostering a team-based collaborative culture and spaces designed to enhance productivity and creativity are critical to businesses’ success. 48% of executives recognize the importance of collaboration and are modernizing their workplaces and systems to attract and retain the next generation of talent.

Surface Hub 2 represents the culmination of years of listening to our customers to better understand their needs. Often to better compete, these businesses must modernize their workplaces and systems to attract the best of the next generation.

People loved the original Surface Hub because it brought people together to work and create, but they also asked us for a more beautiful screen, something easier to install and transport, and more seamless integration of software and apps. We’ve taken that feedback to heart and used it to work across Microsoft to transform the creation process for Surface Hub 2 and our two new offerings in the Surface Hub family – Surface Hub 2S and Surface Hub 2X. Today we’re pumped to share more about these incredible collaboration devices.

Samsung has trademarked the name “Samsung Buds” in Europe, reports SamMobile, indicating that we could see a pair of new earphones released from the manufacturer soon. The application doesn’t give many more details than that, leading some to speculate that we might see a pair of true wireless earbuds, Bixby-focused earphones, or a combination of the two.

Google’s Android OS turns 10 years old: the key milestones

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TechRadar – All the latest technology news September 24, 2018 at 03:16AM.)

With the launch of the original iPhone, the mobile/cellular phone industry was forever changed. The term ‘smartphone’ had now entered the cultural lexicon, ushering in a new age in which the human race’s collective knowledge was now available right from our pockets.

Of course, it wouldn’t be long before a worthy competitor would offer its own take on the smartphone operating system, and internet search giant Google was more than up to the task.

Originally envisioned as a company that would provide advanced operating systems for digital cameras, Android Inc. (founded by Andy Rubin, Rich Miner, Nick Sears and Chris White) would soon set its sights on the world of handsets, eventually convincing Google to acquire the company for $50 million in 2005.

Unlike Apple’s iPhone OS (which later re-branded as iOS), Android was an open-source platform powered by the Linux kernel, allowing manufacturers to develop their own mobile interfaces based on Android’s framework.

Over the course of a decade, Android would grow to become arguably the world’s most popular operating system, available across phones, tablets, televisions, cars, smartwatches and a variety of other smart devices.

Here are some of the key milestones in Android’s rise to global prominence over the last ten years.

Eric Schmidt says the internet will bifurcate in the next 10-15 years into a Chinese-led internet, with fewer freedoms and more censorship, and one led by US (Lora Kolodny/CNBC)

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Techmeme September 24, 2018 at 02:37AM.)



Eric Schmidt, who has been the CEO of Google and executive chairman of its parent company, Alphabet, predicts that within the next decade there will be two distinct internets: one led by the U.S. and the other by China.

Schmidt shared his thoughts at a private event in San Francisco on Wednesday night convened by investment firm Village Global VC. The firm enlists tech luminaries — including Schmidt, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Diane Green — as limited partners, then invests their money into early-stage tech ventures.

At the event, economist Tyler Cowen asked about the possibility of the internet fragmenting into different sub-internets with different regulations and limited access between them in coming years. “What’s the chance, say, 10 to 15 years, we have just three to four separate internets?”

Schmidt said:

This wild, 3D-printed self-solving Rubik’s cube is amazing. To make it work, a Japanese inventor used servo motors and Arduino boards to actuate the cube as it solves itself. Sadly, there isn’t much of a build description available but it looks to be very compact and surprisingly fast.

Eye-Tracking Glasses Are All You Need to Control This Drone

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on IEEE Spectrum Robotics September 20, 2018 at 04:58PM.)

(Cover Image) Photo: NYU

Despite the ubiquity of drones nowadays, it seems to be generally accepted that learning how to control them properly is just too much work. Consumer drones are increasingly being stuffed full of obstacle-avoidance systems, based on the (likely accurate) assumption that most human pilots are to some degree incompetent. It’s not that humans are entirely to blame, because controlling a drone isn’t the most intuitive thing in the world, and to make it easier, roboticists have been coming up with all kinds of creative solutions. There’s body control, face control, and even brain control, all of which offer various combinations of convenience and capability.

The more capability you want in a drone control system, usually the less convenient it is, in that it requires more processing power or infrastructure or brain probes or whatever. Developing a system that’s both easy to use and self-contained is quite a challenge, but roboticists from the University of Pennsylvania, U.S. Army Research Laboratory, and New York University are up to it—with just a pair of lightweight gaze-tracking glasses and a small computing unit, a small drone will fly wherever you look.

Tesla Version 9 update: getting closer to release, now fixes one of the biggest issues with Model 3 UI, and more

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Electrek September 23, 2018 at 12:17PM.)

Tesla’s version 9 software update is expected to be the automaker’s most extensive update in two years and recent leaks showed that it appears to be behind in the development process.

We have learned that the update is finally getting closer to release with a look at the latest build with new features and fixes, including Tesla fixing one of the biggest issues with Model 3’s navigation UI.

Earlier this month, we got a first look at version 9 with an early alpha build obtained by Tesla hacker and tinkerer Jason Hughes.

It showed that the main change is that Tesla is bringing to the Model S and Model X a UI similar to the Model 3’s UI.

The update also included a new Autopilot feature called ‘Drive On Nav’ to enable more automated driving on the highway with automatic lane changes.

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Android Authority September 24, 2018 at 09:58AM.)

  • Huawei says its Kirin 980 chipset will outperform the A12 Bionic chip found in the new iPhone series.

  • We don’t know in which ways the Kirin 980 is apparently superior to the A12.

Huawei claims its upcoming Kirin 980 chip will be better than A12 Bionic the new iPhones are packing, despite Apple having only weeks ago revealed its chip as “the smartest, most powerful chip in a smartphone.” Huawei’s comment arrived during a recent product brief in Dubai, via TechRadar (though the website didn’t provide an exact quote).

The best microSD cards for the Note 8

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Android Central – Android Forums, News, Reviews, Help and Android Wallpapers September 23, 2018 at 11:03AM.)

The Galaxy Note 8 is still an absolute workhorse of a phone a year on from its release. You can get more done with the S Pen, and really the only limitations you’ll face will be battery life and internal storage. If you’ve used up the 64GB of base internal storage on the Note 8, you should invest in a quality microSD card and add up to 256GB of additional storage. The best part is the prices for microSD cards are getting better and better!

Chrome 69 now shares your browser history with Google when you check Gmail

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on TechRadar – All the latest technology news September 24, 2018 at 05:51AM.)

While Chrome 69, the latest version of Google’s popular web browser, brings some welcome changes, it also looks like it now signs you into the browser automatically when you sign in to Google websites and services, which then uploads your browsing history, as well as other information, to Google.

In previous versions of Chrome you could visit Gmail, YouTube or other Google websites and log into them without needing to be logged into the browser as well. While signing into your Google account in Chrome brings benefits, such as synchronizing your bookmarks and passwords, there are a number of privacy reasons why you’d want to keep that information stored locally on your PC, rather than share it with Google.

It also means if you’re using a shared computer to quickly browse the internet and check your emails in Gmail, you’ll want to make extra precautions to ensure that you are fully logged out when you’re finished.

This move is another step Google has taken in blurring the boundaries between its software and its services, and many people are understandably concerned.

More new renders show the Google Pixel 3 and 3XL with their screens off

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Android Central – Android Forums, News, Reviews, Help and Android Wallpapers September 22, 2018 at 01:16PM.)

Everything we know about what’ll likely be one of the year’s best phones.

Google first introduced its Pixel series in 2016, and since then, has been hard at work to establish itself as a serious player in the smartphone market. Google may be one of the most powerful and iconic companies in the world, but when it comes to hardware, is still very much a newcomer.

We saw vast improvements with the Pixel 2 compared to the original Pixel line, and we’re expecting to get that again with the Pixel 3. Google’s quickly learning what it takes to compete with the likes of Samsung and Apple, and seeing as how the Pixel 2 was one of 2017’s best phones, there’s a lot riding on this year’s entry.

Ladies and gentlemen, here’s everything we know so far about the Google Pixel 3.

Ricoh Theta V review: The DSLR of 360-degree cameras

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Android Police – Android news, reviews, apps, games, phones, tablets September 23, 2018 at 04:04PM.)

There is no shortage of portable 360-degree cameras. The most well-known in our circles is Samsung’s Gear 360, but that only works with Samsung phones and iOS. Insta360’s ‘ONE‘ and ‘Nano‘ cameras are also popular, though the latter only works with select iPhone models.

If price is no object, one of the leading devices in this category has been Ricoh’s Theta V camera. It’s tiny, but it packs a 4K sensor and the ability to record surround-sound audio (with a separate module). The camera’s functionality can be extended by a variety of plug-ins, like one for streaming to YouTube or uploading media to Google Photos.

I think the Theta V is a great camera, and I have very few complaints with it. However, you’ll probably need a good reason to spend nearly $400 on one.

Sirius XM Holdings will acquire Pandora for $3.5 billion in an all-stock transaction, creating the world’s largest audio-entertainment company, the two sides announced Monday.

The deal, which includes a “go-shop” provision, will pay current Pandora shareholders 1.44 newly-issued SiriusXM shares for every share they own. The implied price of $10.14 a share is a 13.8% premium to Pandora’s 30-day volume-weighted average price.

NYT sues FCC, says it hid evidence of Russia meddling in net neutrality repeal

Enlarge /FCC Chairman Ajit Pai speaks to the media after the vote to repeal net neutrality rules on December 14, 2017.

The New York Times has sued the Federal Communications Commission over the agency’s refusal to release records that the Times believes might shed light on Russian interference in the net neutrality repeal proceeding.

The Times made a Freedom of Information Act (FoIA) request in June 2017 for FCC server logs related to the system for accepting public comments on FCC Chairman Ajit Pai’s repeal of net neutrality rules. The FCC refused to provide the records, telling the Times that doing so would jeopardize the privacy of commenters and the effectiveness of the agency’s IT security practices and that fulfilling the records request would be overly burdensome.

This led to a months-long process in which the Times repeatedly narrowed its public records request in order to overcome the FCC’s various objections. But the FCC still refuses to release any of the records requested by the Times, so the newspaper sued the commission yesterday in US District Court for the Southern District of New York.

7 smartphone trends that were terrible ideas

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Android Police – Android news, reviews, apps, games, phones, tablets September 23, 2018 at 01:27PM.)

Smartphones have been around for over a decade now. In fact, the first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, debuted 10 years ago today. It’s not surprising that the category has seen some pretty horrible trends in that amount of time. We’ve compiled seven of the worst ones we could think of in this post, a couple of which are (unfortunately) still ongoing.

3D screens

When you think “3D phone,” your head probably goes straight to 2011’s HTC EVO 3D, and maybe the LG Optimus 3D that debuted shortly after. You might be surprised to learn that the first phone with any sort of 3D capabilities, the Japan-only Sharp mova SH251iS, actually came out back in 2002, though the EVO 3D was the first to be sold outside of Asia. Both the EVO 3D and Optimus 3D utilized parallax barrier tech, which meant that no 3D glasses were needed.

The EVO 3D.

At the time, both phones were actually pretty well-liked, with the 3D effect acting as a fun novelty, but the concept was quickly left in the dust. There have been a couple of others over the years, the vast majority of which you’ve almost certainly never heard of, with the only prominent one being the Amazon Fire Phone. This wildly unsuccessful phone from Bezos and friends didn’t use a 3D screen, instead using four front-facing cameras to track the user’s face to create a 3D-looking UI, dubbed “Dynamic Perspective.” I personally own one of these gems, having purchased it for the princely sum of $25 about a year and a half after it was released. It’s a nice piece of history, but not much more.

Elon Musk invites Tesla owners to come help ‘educate’ new buyers during ‘incredibly intense’ delivery week

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Electrek September 21, 2018 at 10:08PM.)

For years now, Tesla has some ‘super’ owners who promote its vehicles and champion the brand.

It led to the automaker launching the referral program to help with sales and now it apparently leads to owners helping Tesla with vehicle deliveries.

As we reported a few hours ago, Tesla is bringing back free Supercharging to inventory cars and Model 3 to help sell cars during the end of quarter rush.

Tesla is launching several different efforts to help sales during the last week of the quarter as it attempts to become profitable.

If those efforts are successful, Tesla will have to handle an incredible delivery volume.

After an owner suggested that they could help with deliveries, CEO Elon Musk accepted the offer and gave instructions on how owners can help with deliveries in the coming week:

Solar panels replaced tarmac on a motorway. Here are the results.

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on Ars Technica September 23, 2018 at 12:35PM.)

(Cover Image)

Enlarge /A road to nowhere?

Four years ago a viral campaign wooed the world with a promise of fighting climate change and jump-starting the economy by replacing tarmac on the world’s roads with solar panels. The bold idea has undergone some road testing since then. The first results from preliminary studies have recently come out, and they’re a bit underwhelming.

A solar panel lying under a road is at a number of disadvantages. As it’s not at the optimum tilt angle, it’s going to produce less power and it’s going to be more prone to shading, which is a problem as shade over just 5 percent of the surface of a panel can reduce power generation by 50 percent.

The panels are also likely to be covered by dirt and dust, and would need far thicker glass than conventional panels to withstand the weight of traffic, which will further limit the light they absorb.

Unable to benefit from air circulation, its inevitable these panels will heat up more than a rooftop solar panel too. For every 1°C over optimum temperature you lose 0.5 percent of energy efficiency.

As a result a significant drop in performance for a solar road, compared to rooftop solar panels, has to be expected. The question is by how much and what is the economic cost?

Sharper Stinger: Testing Kia’s upcoming performance-tuned AWD – Roadshow

 

Your daily selection of the hottest trending tech news!

According to (This article and its images were originally posted on CNET September 22, 2018 at 08:48AM.)

During a recent presentation here at Hyundai Motor Group’s Namyang R&D Center in South Korea, Kia Executive VP Albert Biermann — formerly Chief Engineer for BMW’s M division — explained that the new driving philosophy of the Kia brand is a pursuit of “fun-to-drive” cars.

This hasn’t always been the case. Biermann himself used the phrase “almost fun to drive” to describe the brand’s history, but pointed to the newest generation of Kia’s portfolio — specifically than the 2018 Kia Stinger GT — as proof that the automaker is quickly distancing itself from what he describes as “the old Kia.”
