IPodTouch is the world s most secure electronic equipment

　　

 

　　If you want to be totally not listening either to national "spy training", or have a high-tech encrypted phone or, you at least have a custom operating system. However, the reality and not that complicated, in fact, there is a very secure communications equipment, and it is very low key, right! you would not think that it is the iPod Touch.

　　However, you don't think Apple iPod was specifically created in order to protect consumers of this product, in fact, when the iPod launched, no one on the iOS system can support stable operation of so many cellular data network software, so crazy, turn the iPod into a most secure electronic communications equipment. Whether you're a news Scoop journalists, is intended to give a friend a surprise blow to lie, or to hide and sister love photos, iPod Touch must be regarded as ensuring your privacy is a perfect device. And, as long as you find the right software, you can send message via mobile instant messaging application, you can also encrypt voice calls.

　　All you have to do, is the first Wi-Fi Only mode is set to iPod, and keep updated (be careful!), then follow a few important steps to lock encrypted iPod, and finally, install application encrypted traffic. Well, everything in place, you can rest assured about the land and his girlfriend have sex do it.

　　Wi-Fi Only is the key

　　Many people do not know the principles of mobile data, in fact, closest to your phone needs to (or the strongest signal) send a request signal Tower, told signal Tower routing the calls and data information. This will cause a problem, is practically each tower will have a routing table, forwards used to locate data. Therefore, once the data fall into the hands of a hacker, it's easy to intercept your information.

　　This means that if you want to secure communications, using a mobile phone or message this article is not the best choice. IPod does not have this problem, because it does not use a SIM card, also do not depend on the base to bring data, there will be no more phone records privacy data. Therefore, relative to the iPhone or other mobile phone, iPod has the obvious advantages in security, at least, it will not be in a Pocket, and can track the user's device.

　　Of course, Wi-Fi environments at all won't keep you send a text message or voice communication, also would like to say is that Wi-Fi-only iPad device and iPod security did not differ, but in terms of portability, iPod should be superior, but what is the iPad or the iPod, also depends on the personal preference of the user.

　　Updated to include ecosystem

　　We know, Apple of iOS operating system actually is a closed of ecological system, Apple company itself on App application of audit also very strictly, so in Apple equipment Shang, as long as user in official application store in download App, on rarely will see malicious software, actually, even is world Shang most badly of monitoring software company, also hard put himself of spy software or backdoor program deployment in iOS equipment Shang. Although Apple's iOS devices is not a hundred percent safe, but usually only "jailbreak" the device after, or after physical intrusion by hackers, will go wrong.

　　IOS another kick-ass is a security update, and Apple all devices can also download these updates. At point, already beat the Android has several streets. Android needs to rely on different manufacturers to their own products, which could lead to certain products not updated, not even updated. Against the vast majority of hacker attacks is one of the best ways is to keep the software updated, for iPod, of course, this is a piece of cake.

　　

 

　　Security lock Push a machine intelligence data why not

　　Of course, iPod security is reflected in its users. So, for each iPod users, the key lies in how to wisely use the device:

　　Set a complex password: as you know, the iOS devices with strong hardware encryption technology, but also fully supported the creation of a long and complex password, so do not use a 4-digit password, it's too easy to break. Also, set a complex password is also a benefit, that is when your phone after you lose, people find it difficult to break into, access to inside information.

　　Not "broadcasting" data: the safest way to save data, is stored in its local, there will not be others from elsewhere "extraction". Of course, this also means that the user may need to turn off the automatic backup of the iCloud feature, otherwise hackers could easily break your cloud data files, last year a lot of celebrity nude photo leak that is stored in iCloud, is a very good evidence. In addition, you could not in any high risk applications installed on the device, especially when some programs when you need access to a local photo or file, the operation is to be extra careful, because this will give other people access to local data to open cuts.

　　Exclusive iPod use: when using the iPod, if you want to make sure that communication is safe enough, then there is a way to send private information specifically for the iPod, not he. This will minimize opportunities for third-party access to your personal information, for example, don't open any email on the iPod or browse any website not reliable.

　　Select the appropriate App

　　At this step, you should now hand holding, is an encrypted, system updates, and the Wi-Fi-only iPad or iPod. So, what to do next? ' is, of course, to keep the music player into a secure and reliable communications equipment.

　　Since snow Deng event zhihou, market Shang appeared has many communications encryption App application, was is mess spent gradually to charming eye, but, in author personally research zhihou, carefully filter out has a paragraph applies Yu iPod, and compared was convinced of encryption communications App, this paragraph application is by Open Whisper Systems company development of Signal, they will rates SMS and voice calls for has package integration, so user using up very convenient. In addition, the Signal also deployed the "encryption" technology, we know that there are multiple forms of encryption (such as being with rotten PGP encryption software), but they mortally wounded is using the "single key encryption", which means that if the hacker obtained the key, you can access all of your information.

　　But don't worry about it, Signal using a temporary key, that is, the key will expire at a certain time, if you need to access, you must generate new keys. Clearly, the more secure the encryption.

　　Oh by the way, Signal there are two Android copy of application, namely providing voice services RedPhone and TextSecure provides short message service.

　　On the iPod, because the device itself does not have much communication and therefore greatly reduces the likelihood of data leakage. But it must be said that at this point is, iPod is not suitable for completely anonymous communication applications, especially some anonymous software over the wall like a Tor onion. Why? the vast majority of users may not know that even the most trusted App applications, there are also some metadata, and in some cases may be exploited by hackers.

　　Conclusion

　　Safest when you want to select a communication device, the first thing to consider is who will steal your address data, your competitors, your enemy, and of course hacking. If you want to protect your equipment from being hacked, you may need to do a certain amount of protection measures, and compared relative to hide themselves and girlfriend photo files, the level of these protective measures is clearly higher. In some extreme cases, iPod may not be the most ideal secure communications equipment, but for the average person, to ensure the security of their communications, iPod should be the best choice.

Small car class spare tire can be picked up at any time only good strengths

  Used cars don t hedge New car emissions upgrade

　　Many owners often ignore the spare tire maintenance, unexpected situation occurred when a tire, found only when you remove the spare tire, spare tire has been unable to use, either because the tire pressure is saying will make adding easily off the hook. Below to edit what we do look for the spare tire.

　　Summary: in addition to the points mentioned, oil does not spare tire stored together as much as possible, because oil will eat tyres, led to the drop in life expectancy, and spare tires should not be applied for a long time, replace the spare tire should be to a repair station for repair and replacement in a timely manner, to avoid risks.

 

Your heart rate monitor by wearable device talk about it

　　Nike smart bracelet to monitor inaccurate exercise suit has been settled, but this does not seem to be closer to the wearable device of the expectations and bone gap between a sense of reality. Indeed, many consumers buy use a week or two later simply "give up" on the extreme ways expressed dissatisfaction about some wearable devices.

　　When in the worries of the industry, we have to accept the current rarely-wearable equipment is fully qualified in the true sense of objective reality. Of course, we should also be more dispassionately focuses on existing product technology, rational optimism to industry development, believed that hard starting does not affect its status as the carrier of Internet trends.

　　Whose heart rate monitor is accurate?

　　Look to the whole field of wearable device, we can see almost every wearable device equipped with recording all data associated with the human body functions such as sleep, heart rate, exercise and so on; seems to be missing this feature, do not face "wearable device" title. And currently supports most wearable device in the marketing mix is this feature. Of course this is understandable, because no data wearable device does not have any existing value. So here's the thing, a wearable device data, their data accurate?: do consumers believe their data is accurate?

　　We take a set of experiments. With heart rate monitoring function of smart devices on the market, for example, on the question of whether their results are accurate, CNET Sharon Profis cardiologist Dr Jon Zaroff's help, select the Garmin VivoFit, Basis Carbon Steel, Withings Pulse O2, Samsung, Samsung Galaxy carrying fingertip sensor Gear Fit and S5 as test subjects, Conducted three static tests and three movement test.

　　Results show that, in stationary conditions, five wearable device data are accurate, error rate is 10% around, but in a State of motion, in addition to the Garmin VivoFit and Galaxy S5 does amazing things, rest a few devices have suffered a greater degree of error.

　　Five smart wrist heart rate monitor error

　　How measurements are obtained it? said wearable devices and specialized medical equipment for: professional medical environment using ECG machine uses electrodes or chest strap heart rate monitor heart rate sensors, these devices tend to operate large and complex, so it cannot be applied to smaller wearable devices. At present, most mobile device equipped with photoelectric sensor is a light reflection measurement of heart rate sensor, through the capillaries of LED lighting, monitoring blood flow to get the BPM (beats per minute). If you want to get a more accurate monitoring data, photoelectric heart rate sensor on the actual monitor environment requirements very high, meaning that users can't speak, can't move, can't sweat, so in the context of sports, the error is more likely.

　　Garmin VivoFit and Galaxy S5 is can in movement situation Xia keep relative accurate of data records, former of reasons is it is chest with heart rate sensor, technology principle similar Yu ECG machine, and which despite principle Shang and hand ring consistent, but different of is phone measurement of location in fingertips, due to index finger fingertips exists a artery vascular, so it basically can and heart keep same of frequency.

　　Samsung S5 mobile phones equipped with photoelectric heart rate sensor Wearable by IDC underestimated how large the industry

　　We can from this experiment in the summary out, wants to in movement of State Xia get accurate of heart rate data, can wear equipment of wearing location is important, that or in near heart of place, or in near fingertips of place, anyway cannot is wrist this place on on has, so this also on put currently all intelligent hand ring and watches class products heart rate monitoring of accuracy are to denied has. Of course, domestic production of medical device products business had a deeper understanding of this technology, such as the Beijing Lee on health manpower produced by the technology company's Lee Butler the wearable device, monitoring technology to achieve is the use of fingertip artery on heart rate monitoring.

　　What about sleep?

　　In addition to heart rate monitoring, there is a technology which concerns us, is the monitoring of sleep. For example, propaganda says the Jawbone to monitor deep sleep time UP bracelets, medical experts of their monitoring principles are also relevant to rejected. Monitor deep sleep functions, Jawbone UP principle is by activity monitor to track user perturbation of the sleeping time to determine its sleep state. Another sleep monitoring is achieved with reference to heart rate, due to changes in heart rate with our sleep-wake cycle will change accordingly, when we fall into a deep sleep, the heart rate will decrease, so we reference the sleeping heart rate monitors the quality of sleep.

　　But the reality is that judgments of depth of sleep based on sleep EEG, EMG and ocular manifestations and characteristics of synthetic judgments, it is clear that Jawbone UP monitoring bracelet is not scientific, it concluded that the data are not reliable. According to the heart rate monitor, due to the current low heart rate sensor accuracy of wearable devices, their credibility needs to be considered, and if heart rate data for the reference of the sleep-wake cycle can only be, as long as we do not suffer from insomnia, sleep to sleep through the night is OK, not too concerned about the so-called monitoring results.

　　Wrote to here, we can answered beginning of that problem has, that who of monitoring data is accurate of? professional level of medical equipment relative is accurate of, or for professional athletes training of specific environment Xia of equipment is accurate of, but anyway also cannot said currently those no after medical certification of can wear equipment Shang of data is accurate of, or is close Yu real world of, especially intelligent watches and intelligent hand ring class products. In fact, we can see it in all kinds of wearable device advertising, enterprise is the problem of trying to avoid the accurate data, for them, they used this as a gimmick to attract consumers, but they have to grasp properly, not that there is no room.

　　For example, FuelBand in the campaign to tell consumers is that this device can measure the four types of data: time, calories count, number of steps and NikeFuel energy, but does not say that these data are absolutely accurate as "accurate" is a relative concept, and even professional medical equipment still are going to be some errors. Put it this way is that, these data are not completely useless, if you feel so inclined, they can also be used as a reference, you can roughly determine a trend based on these data, increasing understanding of their own, try to make yourself more scientifically adjust your life, and so on.

　　How to face the monitor "allowed"

　　Relative to the current medical-grade monitoring products, in product form more miniaturized smart watches, bracelets are more or less has some gaps, currently there are also some focus on health monitoring of intelligent watches on the monitor as much as medical-grade monitoring products. But in terms of current health-monitoring product, its monitoring of "accuracy" is a relative concept, and not all believed to reflect real conditions of the human body. Similarly, wearable devices, with the passage of time, continuous improvement of industry chain technology, algorithm technical amendments, the accumulation of experience, whether based in watches, bracelets, clothes, such as any form of wear such equipment, the monitoring data will be kept close to the body's physiological state.

　　For businesses, we need to be objective in the face of the current stage of the development process, from the user perspective on their core monitoring and is passed through the marketing of mature technologies to consumers. For some in the process of development of technology, perhaps we need to take a "conservative" approach, in the form of an additional feature, clearly inform consumers in the marketing process to function only as a reference.

　　For consumers, we need greater tolerance to new technology, wearable device this revolutionary product technologies in particular, in the build from 0 to 1, and from 1 to n of evolution will take time. We're standing in today's sophisticated electronic equipment view wearable device, may have a variety of imperfections, but if you stand in the entire Internet of things era trend perspective, the current wearable in times of draught, is the speed of development beyond the PC, the Smartphone has evolved.

　　No matter how controversial, wearable devices, it will grow from babies to teens, and mature, and scientific and technological progress will eventually benefit humankind.

Cooke and Schmidt Nebia of mutual favors what is a shower

　　Can make the bath had a better experience? Carlos Gomez, founder of Nebia Andonaegui also when working in the Ministry of health club, just thinking about it.

　　After five years of research and design, he and a small team partners do the shower device called Nebia. Nebia sense of design, and it can turn water into millions of tiny water droplets, like mist, shower experience, "like a walk in the clouds", has experienced user described. Compared to a conventional shower head, Nebia can cover 10 times the human surface, but under the same conditions, it can save the 70% of water (formerly bath once took an average of 20 gallons of water, with Nebia 6 gallons).

　　Nebia is now on Kickstarter to raise, raise amount has exceeded the US $ 380,000 (target $ 100,000). In the popular crowd, and before we could see Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google CEO Eric Schmidt on the scene. Apple officials said Nebia was the Cook made a personal investment, and Apple hasn't half dime, the other side, Schmidt is the Schmidt Family Foundation under its own name charities invest, not only that, but even the YC has shot. This and no tall technology disposal device is able to obtain so many celebrities favor, surprise, also appeared to be reasonable.

　　Founder in the first time, by a not-for-profit project contact Endeavor to Philip Winter first team small partner by 2014, and had participated in the iPhone design Gabriel Parisi. So far, Nebia has 7 employees. HMI wizard how to be a smart factory

　　Nebia are now applying for a patent, was officially put into market will be around $ 399.

Apple sent invitations scheduled to be released on September 9 the new iPhone

　　Apple officially released the invitation, announced to be United States September 9, at 10 o'clock in the morning local time (September 10, at 1 o'clock in the morning Beijing time) in the United States biergelahanmu of San Francisco civic Auditorium (Bill Graham Civic Auditorium) held a news conference, according to the law in the past, the Conference will launch a new generation of iPhone mobile phones. Flash world in red and black from user requirements

　　Some domestic media mood, including Sina science and technology received a letter of invitation, the slogan of this invitation for "Hey Siri, give us a hint" (Hey, Siri, a little spoiler), venue of the press conference biergelahanmu civic Auditorium accommodating 7000 people is said to be almost 10 times as long as Apple's Yerba Buena Center for the arts often holds press conference. This means that this will be the launch of a larger than ever before.

　　As no accident, Apple company will in this released Shang launched rumors has long of "iPhone 6s and the 6s Plus" phone, new machine will continued existing products appearance, new iPhone of other changes also may including: fuselage material more substantial to prevent bent folding occurred, and carrying new of Apple A9 processor, and run cache increased to 2GB, and 12 million pixel of camera, and and equipped with Force Touch pressure touch control screen.

　　Apple pushes new products has become law this year will be "small", the 6s look little improvement compared with the past generation products, but will most likely increase of pink and rose gold shell, in order to attract more users, similar to the way the iPhone success on the 5s.

　　About iPhone 6s, at present enough information has been leaked, SINA mobile summed up, can't wait to launch the user can view: the ultimate decryption: iPhone what will the 6s?

Aifu Intelligent robot chaperoning industrial civilization of love

　　Robot time

　　With further development of advanced manufacturing technology, new materials, to the arrival of the information age as the core of the third industrial revolution, countries around the world have set off a wave of robot research and development. The view was expressed that the next 30 years will be the rapid development of technologies for Intelligent robot period, world growth engine is from IT to RT (robotics) era.

　　From manufacturing to food service, robot applications has been extended to all areas, humans began to worry will soon be replaced by robots or threats, will write news robot appears, deepening the argument again. It is learned that the AP began experimenting with automation of earnings reports from July 2014, is provided by a company called Automated Insights writing automation platform, now with Wordsmith, and Allstate, Comcast, Yahoo, the associated press and several other large companies, can produce millions of articles each week, when needed, or even 2000 articles per second. So has developed a robot that robbed small point, journalists their jobs? about the robot threat problem, industry insiders think, the real threat to human age of artificial intelligence is still yet to come, could replace human intelligence is slowly came into people's lives, they silently at the service of humanity in different industries.

　　China is already the world's biggest robot market, but mainly refers to industrial robots, and future decisions is important is intelligent service robots. With further maturation of robot technology, home service robots is expected to become computers, phones in large quantities into the home consumer electronics products, such as companionship, care, education, clean, a lot of housekeeping services. Robots from the enterprise to the home robots, Intelligent robot chaperoning wind navigation will be the health industry. If chaperoning a robot into the family, become a part of the family, what about what life was like in the future?

　　Intelligent robot chaperoning broke into the health industry, into ordinary family

　　Ma said: "more than my next billionaire, must appear in the health industry," with the development of robots, to clean, care for the elderly and children daily, often accompanied by small children or elderly around ... ... It allows people to see, instead of the nurse with the nursing robot entered ordinary families in the future, and nurse, nursing and health care provider level.

　　The lack of emotion, created with just needed to protect a robot, according to the relevant statistics, in 2025 the number of older persons will exceed 300 million in China, empty Nester but also exceeded 100 million, trends in population ageing and empty-nesters aggravated, spawned a series of family and social problems of children. Meanwhile 16 million newborns each year, pre-school children exceeded 100 million, more than half the children in the family or nannies to take care for the elderly, separated the lack, for the development of a child's personality and future are buried some of the foundations, or even cause a lifetime of regret. "The company is the best expression. "As more intelligent than pets, in the absence of emotion, chaperoning the intelligent robots should be the best company.

　　Lianchuang love Series Intelligent robot chaperoning

See European manufacturers on the autopilot is doing

　　Mercedes-Benz-Daimler has recently published the "Future Truck 2025" renderings, suddenly the media amazing, praised "running into no-driving (driving), truck more than the car." However, Mercedes-Benz this is not new, under Lao a Lao autopilot with everyone in the field of commercial vehicles "blend" was how.

　　Continental: automatic driving faster than the universal electric vehicle

　　In fact, as opposed to the "decision making retarded" host plant for parts manufacturers are driving the main pioneer and researcher, Germany, and Japan's most leading enterprises.

　　For example, Germany continental (Continental) technical test drive was held at the beginning of October (TechRide2014) from mainland Japan company Christoph Hagedorn, President of city cars released from phase in 2018 to achieve "drone" and "Declaration".

　　City's "road map" is:

　　2018 parking (Parking Companion) and the team followed the system (Low Speed Companion) practical;

　　2020 can also automatically shift/change lanes on the highway "Cruising Chauffeur" practical;

　　2022 to 2025, under the condition of high speed long-distance automatic driving (Highway Chauffeur).

　　According to Germany, Chairman of continental aiermaer-Degenhardt as saying last month: "make them network terminals (that is, interconnection workshop), automatic driving cars will be very easy to do......" he believes can networked vehicles in 2017 to reach 50%.

　　In contrast, Degenhardt prospects do not look good for lithium-ion battery car, "(I) will send two or three years ago thought. Pure electric vehicles could be promising in China, commenced in other areas. "

　　Valeo: we have to go in front of the vehicle

　　"Want to make a car automatically drive must be realized by the cameras, millimeter-wave radar and laser sensors, (vehicle) on the perception of the surrounding environment. "In late May, Valeo Global Chief Executive Officer Mr Jacques ashenbuwa told the AutoLab press:" Fortunately is, we are full of technical reserves in these areas. "

　　"Whether it is automatic, or partially automatic, halfway out of the Google has made auto makers feel pressure ... ... (Race between Internet companies and automobile manufacturers) who will win? I think it is important, above all, Valeo may provide their autonomous vehicle technology and related accessories. "

　　In November 2013, Valeo Japan Fujitsu ten (one of Toyota's suppliers) agreed, cooperative development can help the vehicle inspection lane barriers of high precision sensors.

　　"Hi" at the Paris Motor Show, show Valeo Park4U ® family of products, the series based on ultrasonic technology to monitor spaces at speeds up to 30 km/h, in the case of around 40 cm distance automatic parking and can be used day and night.

　　Of course, not far behind other manufacturers, Denso company started last year for advanced driver assistance (ADAS), (4 m distance) lined up for uninterrupted testing of such technology. DENSO is currently in Japan new energy and industrial technology development organization (NEDO) project responsible for trucks and other commercial vehicles in project (started 2008), only to mention: the white line recognition under the condition of rainfall levels quite amazing (depth 50 mm is still reliable).

　　European "hugs" research

　　Since February this year, in Germany under the lead of foster's group, 29 vehicle manufacturers, parts suppliers, universities and the research institutions jointly launched the autonomous vehicle research project "AdaptIVe (Automated Driving Applications and Technologies for Intelligent Vehicles)".

　　Key members of the agency research and technology companies including BMW, BMW, Daimler, Fiat Research Centre, Opel, Peugeot, Renault, Volkswagen, Volvo, Bosch, continental, Delphi,

　　Although it looks "starting" late, but various studies have "drone", so is not a thing, current research project is "find driver and best collaboration for automation systems" approach is the use of 7-car vehicles and 1 truck, ran on the highways and urban roads in various places.

　　Meanwhile, the EU also paid 250,000 euros to support the 42-month project, demonstrates how to perfect legal issues--such as how to define the future of self-driving cars of the manufacturers responsibility, drivers ought to abide by traffic regulations.

　　Funny thing is, this organization did not bring the Volvo "play", is Sweden's technology is playing God? (Pure fun)

　　Daimler's "future truck" how powerful? World robot Conference Smart equipped with competitive

　　Well, let us look back to see "Future Truck 2025" project, and Mercedes-Benz to this truck is equipped with the "Highway Pilot" automatic driving system, head fitted with LED array and camera (rear, body has a corresponding sensor on both sides) used to capture traffic information around vehicle.

　　Future Truck face before 2025 designs inspired by the stars, when you switch back into automatic mode, large size LED lamp group will appear as a pale yellow. Traditional exterior mirrors were abandoned, replaced by a camera. Camera captures video streams in real time are on display in the cab on the 12-inch screen.

　　This summer, the "truck of the future" has been in Germany Magdeburg experiment on the A14 motorway, successfully realized at 80km/h speed automatic driving mode. Mercedes-Benz developers said that within the next 10 years, requirements for automatic driving technologies will be ready.

　　Though practical for a long time, but Daimler head Wolfgang Bernhard has confidently predicted: "automatic driving was a future mainstay of our trucks, buses, and Office of the future into the driver's seat, the pilot will become transport managers. "

　　We all know now, Daimler's "Future Truck 2025" should Europe's "AdaptIVe" part of the project.

　　Automatic drive is necessary for commercial vehicles

　　Select commercial vehicle OEMs and component manufacturers (particularly trucks) to experimental autopilot is "very timely and very necessary".

　　According to the United States the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) statistics in 2012 alone, 333,000 cases of car accidents involving commercial vehicles across the United States led to nearly 4000 people have been killed, the vast majority of passenger vehicles.

　　And families compared to passenger cars, commercial vehicles (in particular freight) driver's fatigue driving situation is much more serious. Therefore, autonomous vehicle technology to reduce the number of traffic accidents and casualties, has been widely recognized authorities, car manufacturers, operators, its prospects and "money scene" than "driverless" car is more optimistic.

　　AutoLab "autolab" is a focus on the auto business information micro public accounts by auto manufacturers, distributors, TMT, media, marketing, and other experts in the field of advisory missions, put together the auto industry think tank.

　　AutoLab hopes to accompany Pan-car circles, to witness a traditional industry and the Internet collide to produce sparks, and deep concerns about all three industries the opportunity: new energy, telematics, aftermarket.

Google announced Android Auto platform of intelligent car pictures and details

　　Beijing time on September 29 morning news, Google this week by developer.Android.com issued a series of Android Auto developer documentation. These documents further show more details about Google's smart car platform so developers can better understand the performance of the entire system.

　　In fact, Android Auto "apply" is not a real application, but additional special content with existing Android application Android Auto, this mode is similar to Android Wear. Developers do not need to separate mobile applications, automotive applications, and watch application, simply all interface properties into a unified common application, then you can display on both the devices of different sizes.

　　Developers will not be able to customize Android Auto interface design, this is more of a "complete" way of development. Google will develop the interface layout, developers need only adjust their color schemes, buttons, and text. These applications also can play back the contents of the stream will be provided.

　　Developers cannot change the interface layout. For example, they are unable to adjust the location of buttons, add additional buttons, change the size of interface elements, or add extra screen pages. If developers want to develop tools Google has not taken into account, such as speedometers, now appears to be out of the question. Foreigners specially introduced China s Smartphone

　　Because developers are limited to within the framework of Google, so Google this framework deserves much attention. Android Auto with "media" interface, such as a media player. Developers can apply "music, podcasts, radio and audio in real time news" and so on. Android Wear similar to integrate Android Auto notification API (application programming interface) to automatically extract notification, and "appropriate" on the console screen to display. Applications can also register a series of voice operations, while Google's applications list feature is also provided.

　　Applications typically provide "night mode", when driving at night into a darker color scheme. In addition, Android Auto also provides a user interface.

　　Developer's lack of control over the application or adjust application design, this is due to an important reason: driving safety. In the process of designing Android Auto, Google won the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration assistance. Google wants drivers to focus more on the road, rather than onboard computers, a user interface developer can be customized is likely to cause an accident. Therefore, Google provides a simple, intuitive user interface, and also recommended that developers ensure that all "safe, appropriate for the environment."

　　Google says Android Auto standard user interface will help dispel global concern regulators. "Android Auto provides a standard user interface can minimize the driver distraction problem. You don't need to test one possible cause of driver distraction customized user interface. This will be a lengthy and costly process, which will involve many legislatures in the world, and needs to be adapted to each different standards of the auto maker. "

　　In short, developers cannot have too much on the Android platform for Auto-generated. Google says it will be "within the next few months," released Android Auto SDK (software development kit). When the outside world will be able to find out more information.

New research shows that electrical stimulation of the scalp can be treated sea

　　

　　At present, the cause of motion sickness is still a mystery, but scientists prevalent theory is that when we are moving, when our brains from the ears and the eyes have received confusing information.

　　This is a very common scenario, and an impact on most people, this means that we will ship or riding a roller coaster feel queasy. In addition, one out of every 10 people will have 3 people experienced unbearable sickness symptoms, such as dizziness, severe nausea, vomiting, and sweating, and so on.

　　A few days ago, a study from Imperial College London, published in the journal Neurology, the results showed that, exerting mild currents in the scalp can inhibit the area of the brain responsible for processing signal response. Doing so helps reduce clutter signal input of the brain, so as to prevent the symptoms of motion sickness. This technology provides a very safe and effective interventions, could anyone can buy next to the device.

　　It is understood that Dr Qadeer Arshad from London's Imperial College School of medicine who led the study, said: "we have the confidence to allow people to walk into a pharmacy to buy in the 5-10 to anti-sea appliance. "This device could be a similar to machines used to treat back pain.

　　"We hope that it can even phone integrated with, this headset jack provides the technology needed to moderate current. In this case, you only need to connect the small electrode before the journey begins on the scalp, such as prior to boarding. "

　　In order to prove the effect of electrical stimulation, the researchers conducted a study of simulated seasickness. In the course of study, volunteers with electrodes on their head, in about 10 minutes, and then they were asked to simulate humans on board in Tilt Swivel chair or on a roller-coaster campaign. After the treatment, they felt nausea and to reduce the chance of many, and recover more quickly.

　　Involved in the study of motion sickness expert Professor Michael Gresty said: "the problem with motion sickness therapy is effective pills often cause drowsiness. If you are just a short trip, it all does not matter, but if you need to work while anti-motion while on a cruise, then what should I do? " No artificial intelligence Internet of things

　　"We are really pleased to be able to find a way to provide an effective measure and there are no apparent side effects of motion sickness therapy. We can achieve results very close to the best motion sickness, motion sickness pills. "

　　The team has begun discussions with partners and equipment research and development issues, military-industrial sector but also to the study of particular interest. This technology has the potential to help those remote controlled drones through a visual interface feel disgusting people.

　　Dr Qadeer Arshad said: "in other studies, we found clear evidence that stimulating the brain in this way to improve attention and concentration. Military has expressed great interest, we can imagine, others like students and played computer games for a long time people will want to try it. "He said, studying the currents involved are very small, there is no reason to have an adverse effect in the short term when used.
