FLIR One (Second Gen)

FLIR One (Second Gen)
Think back to the 80s when you say Predator. Whatever happened to those fancy IR cameras and why don't we see them all over the place. Turns out that IR imaging is very expensive to do and fairly low resolution. FLIR has been in the business for awhile and the consumer products have finally come to a price point that makes sense. If you've got a smartphone that is compatible, you too can have an IR camera.Next Page »

Huawei P8 lite Smartphone
While Huawei may not be a name you're familiar with in the US, they make some very nice devices. Take the Nexus 6P, it's from Huawei. The P8 lite is a smaller sibling and it combines a smaller form factor with Huawei's Emotion UI Android skin. This unlocked phone offers dual SIM support and a host of other features at a reasonable price.Next Page »

Android 3.0 Allowing Lower Level Hardware Access

Poster: Aron Schatz
Posted on February 10, 2011 at 11:33:19 AM
Google will be pushing new programming APIs into Android 3.0 to allow closer to hardware manipulation. The higher you get in abstraction, the slower the programs will be (to a point). This will allow developers to get closer to the hardware to make more high performance programs.

Quote

he new interface, is called Renderscript, said R. Jason Sams, an Android performance and graphics programmer at Google. He didn't say so in so many words, but the goal for the feature has to be better games on Android. It's a broader feature, though: it's used in Honeycomb's YouTube and Books apps.

"The target audience is the set of developers looking to maximize the performance of their applications and are comfortable working closer to the metal to achieve this," Sams said in a blog post yesterday. "The target use is for performance-critical code segments where the needs exceed the abilities of the existing APIs."

To that end, Renderscript exposes two hardware-accelerated interfaces, one for rendering 3D graphics and one for for power-efficient computing operations. To use it, Renderscript relies on a variant of the C99 version of the C programming language. And the Renderscript plumbing that comes along with Honeycomb, aka Android 3.0, makes the decisions about whether to run the computing jobs on regular or graphics processors.


Sounds like a bit of OpenCL is thrown into the mix.

Xperia Play (Playstation Phone) On Verizon?

Poster: Aron Schatz
Posted on February 9, 2011 at 11:59:16 AM
It seems that Wirefly spilled the beans on the network that the Sony Xperia Play will be on. I wonder, who will be buying this phone? It might be one of those jack of all trades, master of none, type of deals... Or it could be the greatest thing to happen to mobile gaming. Who knows... Actually, I do. Sony's history of past systems yields my thoughts to lean to the failure category. Remember Sony, once people buy the device, they own it!

Quote

Verizon customers could have a tough choice to make. After all, the Xperia Play is no slouch when it comes to specs. The phone will come with Android 2.3 Gingerbread installed right out of the box. A 4 inch LCD display weighs in with resolution at 480 x 854, and there is a front-facing camera. Of course, you can't forget that slide-sliding game controller that has game players excited.

Is Wirefly's intelligence correct? By Sunday evening, we should know. Sony Ericsson has had its troubles finding a carrier to subsidize its smartphones in the U.S., but because the Xperia Play is so unique, the joint-venture does have a good shot at getting a major U.S. carrier to sign on the dotted line.


Mobile World Congress is set for this weekend and that's when many new phones will be announced and released.

Samsung Galaxy S Launch Event

Poster: Aron Schatz
Posted on June 29, 2010 at 2:27:17 PM
ASE Publishing will be at the Samsung Galaxy S launch event in NYC tonight. We'll have our digicamcorders to record the launch. Expect video coverage tonight or tomorrow. The Galaxy S is a new Android based smartphone that will be offered by a few different carriers. It looks like a GSM type phone, but they said it will be released for four carriers which might mean Verizon may carry it (or Sprint). I'd bet that all of them will have it in different versions.
