Smart watches 2015: more popular but still aren’t necessary

Year 2015 is the rapid development of smart watches, apple, samsung, MOTOROLA, Pebble, tiger tag heuer, asus, Fossil, whether it’s consumer electronics brand, watches, fashion brands, are entering the market, aimed at the user’s wrist.

So the result? According to Apple, led Watch, smart watches, already poses a threat to the Swiss Watch, cause the overall market down. However, this does not mean that had been universal smart watch. First of all, the watch is optional accessories for many people, most people are found no compelling reason to buy smart watches.

Smart watches more abundant

Cnet editors summarized 2015 the smart watch market representative products, and they can be divided into several categories. Among them, Apple Watch is undoubtedly the most successful, to work, wearing feeling, deep movement monitoring, communication is very outstanding, plus Apple brand appeal, may be the first choice for many users. And, of course, its battery life is a problem, and basically can’t solve.

Android Wear areas, Moto 360, huawei Watch a breakthrough in wearable sex, more beautiful, more easy to match clothes, this is clearly a step forward. And similar Withings Activite products, because the only provide a step function, so a longer battery life, appearance design is the most close to ordinary watch, relatively simple but functional aspects.

Of course, we also cannot ignore tiger tag heuer, Fossil, Swiss watch or a fashion manufacturers such as wang table products, obviously the manufacturer should know best watch is what appearance, but in terms of function, often only integration simple step function, lack of personality, and availability (tiger tag heuer is an exception).

Smart watches application is still not enough

So, has bought smart watches what is the most commonly used function of the user? Cnet, according to the user is the most commonly used motion monitoring, social applications, rarely attempt other types. Obviously, playing games, listening to music, watching the news is not obviously fit for application of watches, smart watches the use form of the rich is not because the application type and extension, is quite limited, this is obviously the product type itself.

It is worth mentioning that apple, Garmin is currently ranked very top of the world’s movement monitoring equipment manufacturers, and the two brands have smart watches, sports watches, enough to compete with motion wrist strap makers like Fitbit, means that many users are more inclined to choose smart watches.

How to develop in 2016?

In the future, smart watches need to be more. Integration is more precise and more comprehensive exercise monitoring function, truly independent operation ability, and is more practical and useful applications, and the most important battery life, these are all require manufacturers to work. What is clear is that in 2016 there were more integrated WIFI, cellular data network of smart watch, at least you can need not always carry a mobile phone. Of course, they should also become more beautiful and more fashionable, really into the life of people.

Hundred recycled polymer will bring clean plastic

According to foreign media reports, made of how a non-oil plastic can also achieve the goal of recyclable and biodegradable? Chemists have found such a polymer, it can be synthesized a kind of useful material and then broken down into its original structure form and then reborn. Although some plastics can be recycled through continuous accumulation and was made into useful items, but most of them are to landfills or the oceans.

In order to find out to full recovery and degradation of plastic, of the university of Colorado (CSU), the researchers will look to the molecule compounds extracted from biomass. The U.S. department of energy will have this kind of material as 12 is most suited to replace one of the items of petrochemical products. Early in the scientific literature has gamma butyrolactone (GBL) the molecule is defined as a kind of very promising advanced plastic building materials. However, due to this kind of material with thermal stability, so it can’t happen polymerization.

So, professor of chemistry at the CSU Eugene Chen and colleagues Miao Hong postdoctoral research cooperation, finally they found a production process, it can not only use GBL generated polymers, but also can make the polymer to form different shapes, such as linear and circular. Involves both of metal catalyst and nonmetal catalyst, researchers will be heated to 220 degrees Celsius (for linear polymer) or 300 degrees Celsius (for cyclic polymers) and last an hour and then let the GBL back to the original state of molecules.

The research team, said on the chemical properties of it, GBL like commercial biological plastic P4HB, but because the latter is based on the bacteria production, so its cost is higher, the craft is also more complex. Team hope that their research can bring the industry a lower cost and simpler technique recyclable, biodegradable plastics.

Ground robots: better than unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) automation shipping method?

With the emergence of delivery robot based on the ground, small unmanned robots team may soon will be on the road can be seen everywhere. Several of Skype co-founder of setting up new company Starship Technologies in London is preparing to test their unmanned robot delivery. According to the developers, the robot has not yet been named volume is not large, safe, practical and environmental protection.

Tarship Technologies CEO Artie hearn pulled (Ahti Heinla) said, “after the online orders, there will be a robot delivery goods to you, not like traditional let Courier door-to-door delivery is knocking at the door.”

Mode of operation

The robot can carry two shopping bags, can be in 5 to 30 minutes from the specified distribution center or complete local distribution retail locations. Hearn pulled, explains that the robot is not aimed at a long order, but for the delivery of the last kilometer.

, “he said.” as consumers, think it’s convenient, would you can choose by smartphone robots distribution. Later, robots will be in our distribution center to load your package, and then drive to your home. The whole process only about 20 minutes. That is to say, you can choose 10 minutes arrived, not served such as half a day or during the day time window.”

Robot in distribution way, customers can real-time tracking on a smartphone. It got to the delivery location, customer needs through its smartphones unlock robot safety class to get the parcel.

Starship Technologies is near Greenwich in London on a trial basis, its robots make some people feel confused, but the way people are fundamental to this way of distribution.

“I’m impressed with it, its volume is small, looks very safe, have the feeling of futurism. I think this idea is very clever.” A passerby said, “I think it will be delivery in the future. In the coming decades, you will often see this on the ground or the air delivery of the machine.”

Starship Technologies, technology use “off-the-shelf” components. The robot is light weight, low cost, so the company can reduces the cost of each distribution for 10 to 15 times.

These robots are equipped with navigation and obstacle avoidance software delivery, according to the Starship Technologies, said 99% of the time they are automated driving. However, they are also influenced by artificial pilot monitoring, the latter can at any time in their operations to ensure their safety.

How to prevent the theft

They are built-in security features, which can alleviate the people to the concerns of the ordered goods are stolen. According to hearn pulled, the robot’s security features can increase the risk of potential thieves steal.

He explained, “you might think someone would want to steal something from the robot, but in fact, the difficulty of the theft is far more than you think. First of all, the parcel is locked. So it is not easy to invade the robot, especially if you don’t have special tool. Most of the street thug no specialized tools. In addition, the robot is equipped with 9 has been connected to the camera. It comes with the GPS function. Pilot can also talk to people around robots, robot built-in speakers and microphone. So the thief is not so easy to get.”

Compared with the advantage of unmanned aerial vehicle (uav)

At present, many famous company are in research and development automation delivery service, including Google, wal-mart and amazon. Amazon delivery unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) is expected in the near future, the company recently released a video of the unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) prototype was showed. However, Starship Technologies, points out that problems great “socially accepted” unmanned aerial vehicle (uav), and the ground robot does not.

Hearn said, “use robots safer than the uav has to be on the ground. People actually don’t like low-flying unmanned aerial vehicle (uav), especially they fly over their garden, did a lot of noise. If it is for you to ship, you may think doesn’t matter, but if it is delivered to others, people estimate will not be pleased. People don’t want to see the children playing in the garden with drones, disturb. Flying robots huge social accept problems. While the ground robots don’t have much concern in this regard, they are relatively safe, looks more lovely.”

11 Impossible Tech Interview Questions You Don't Want To Be Asked

You may purchase phone plans with more than enough data to cover things like casual web surfing and streaming the occasional song. But you may not realize that browsing Facebook could be a big hit against your data plan too.

According to Cisco’s online VNI Services Gauge Tool, one hour of browsing through social media can use up 90 megabytes, which is more than twice the amount of data that streaming music uses in the standard “normal” quality per hour..

It means that if you spend an hour a day on social media over a cellular network, you could be using 2.7 GB of data a month. Even half an hour of daily social media browsing could consumer 1.35 GB.

A lot of that usage is likely due to the auto-play video Facebook recently added to its app. The videos appear at different rates for each user based on a variety of factors in Facebook’s newsfeed algorithm. Twitter is also said to have a similar feature coming to its feed soon.

You can disable the auto-play option for newsfeed videos when you’re on a cellular network by going in to the Facebook app and tapping the options button (the three horizontal lines on top of each other) found on the bottom right for the iOS version, and towards the top right for the Android version. Then tap Account Settings > Videos and Photos > Auto-play > disable Smart Auto-play > and tap Use Wi-Fi Only.

Music and Video Streaming

Streaming music at the normal, average stream quality for an hour will use up 43 megabytes of your data plan per hour. It may seem insignificant, but it equates to about 1.3 GB of your plan per month if you stream music every day for an hour over your carrier’s cell network. Some streaming services stream music at a lower 64 kbps, which uses up less data.

And if you prefer to stream music in higher quality (at 320 kbps) when you’re not connected to a WiFi network, you’re looking at 144 megabytes per hour. That’s 4.32 GB per month if you stream high quality music every day for an hour over a cellular network.
