3D Gesture-Based Multi-Layer Remote Control Technique for Smart TV(No remote needed)
Fights over who gets to wield the remote control can get pretty heated, but figuring out whose turn it is to pick a channel is about to get a whole lot more complicated. EyeSight Technologies has introduced a new fingertip gesture-based technology that allows you to control your TV without the need for a remote – you just use your own hands. EyeSight’s technology is kind of like a touch screen but without the screen. They say it is the world’s first gesture- recognition software. It works not only with televisions, but also with laptops, tablets, phones, and in-car systems. The company wants to make gesture-based controls as simple and intuitive to the entire developed world as Apple made touch screen controls. Unfortunately for everyone hoping to install a simple piece of software and start conducting the channels with their outstretched fingers, this isn’t exactly add-on technology. The software would have to be built into the device along with a 2D webcam. Still, it would give both short-range and long-range control that would recognize not only hand movements but gestures as well.

Revealed:Apple spaceship campus
Watch a drone flyby of Apple's gigantic spaceship campus
When 2.8 million square feet just isn't enough
Apple's new donut-shaped campuswill house 13,000 employees scattered about a mind-boggling 2.8 million square feet, a nearly 230 percent bump over the company's current HQ at 1 Infinite Loop. And that doesn't include the 1,000-seat auditorium, nor the 300,000 square feet dedicated solely to R&D facilities. To help you conceptualize a facility of that magnitude, drone pilot and photographer Duncan Sinfield has released a video showing an aerial view of the site under construction.
176 ACRES AND $5 BILLION LATER
Using narration from former Apple CEO Steve Jobs' remarks at a Cupertino City Council meeting about the construction project, Sinfield's drone fly-by does a neat job of showing you what has been accomplished in the past 31 days of work. He filmed a similar video back on August 1 and overlays the footage as his DJI Inspire 1 quadcopter swings overhead one month later.
The campus, which reportedly cost more than $5 billion and was designed by architectural firm Forster + Partners, is expected to be finished some time next year or in early 2017. One notable perk: The campus is expected to be a "net-zero energy" facility, meaning it will generate 100 percent of its power from renewable energy sources, including 700,000 square feet of onsite solar panels.

03 Sep 2015 01:08 PM
Sony has unveiled its latest Xperia Z5 Premium smartphone that is touted to be the world’s first smartphone with a 4K display.
As the IFA 2015 kick starts in Berlin this week, Sony showed off its new lineup of Xperia Z5 smartphones that boast of new features including fingerprint sensor and 23 megapixel cameras.
However, the Xperia Z5 Premium smartphone is the one grabbing the most attention for its 5.5-inch that packs in four times the resolution of Full HD with 806 ppi for ultra sharp viewing experience. A 4K display is sharper and scales up your images or videos to a higher quality.

Google introduces driverless cars
What if it could be easier and safer for everyone to get around?
To start, we’re building a prototype vehicle that's designed to take you where you want to go at the push of a button—no driving required.
Why self-driving cars matter
Imagine if everyone could get around easily and safely, regardless of their ability to drive.
Aging or visually impaired loved ones wouldn't have to give up their independence. Time spent commuting could be time spent doing what you want to do. Deaths from traffic accidents—over 1.2 million worldwide every year—could be reduced dramatically, especially since 94% of accidents in the U.S. involve human error.
How it works
Our self-driving cars are designed to navigate safely through city streets.
They have sensors designed to detect objects as far as two football fields away in all directions, including pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles—or even fluttering plastic shopping bags and rogue birds. The software processes all the information to help the car safely navigate the road without getting tired or distracted.
What we’re up to
We’ve self-driven over 1 million miles and are currently out on the streets of Mountain View, California and Austin, Texas.
Our testing fleet includes both modified Lexus SUVs and new prototype vehicles that are designed from the ground up to be fully self-driving. There are safety drivers aboard all vehicles for now. We look forward to learning how the community perceives and interacts with us, and uncovering situations that are unique to a fully self-driving vehicle.
Say hello if you see us around!
