Hotwiring the future of in-car tech with a smartphone and Raspberry Pi Most current in-car infotainment and "telematics" systems follow a common theme in their design. For the sake of safety, branding, and a sustained source of revenue, they shackle vehicle owners to an integrated system that does poorly the things that smartphones already do well. The "connected car" dream has arrived in small doses on select vehicles, and it has idiosyncrasies that drive vehicle owners who've become used to the power and simplicity of smartphone apps a little bit crazy. OK, a lot crazy. A few months back, I ranted about my personal experience with MyFord Touch and the shortcomings of in-car technology. iteadstudio.com As we mentioned before , IBOX can run various versions of operating systems, including linux and android , etc. Some guys are wondering about the differences between the operating system of FLASH version and SD card version, thus we’d like to give a simple reply here : Whether it is linux or Android, NAND FLASH version and the SD card version only differ in the installation position: one is installed in the NAND FLASH and another is installed in a Micro-SD card. System of SD card version cannot work in NAND FLASH, vice versa.

Strap End-links: A TRF Review One question we frequently get asked is "Can I put Daytona/DateJust Strap end-links on my bracelet watch?" The answer is frequently "No, the Rolex strap end-links are machined into grooves under the bezel, and so you need a special case, along with the end-links that are not sold separately.. One TRF member, Etur, has solved that problem. Raspberry Pi and Arduino to get cellular access with SIM card add-on A new Kickstarter project aims to give Raspberry Pi and Arduino boards Internet access throughout the world with an add-on that allows integration with a SIM card. SparqEE Cellv1.0 would need to raise $70,000 to get the technology to backers, with donors pledging at least $69 to get the device. SparqEE CEO Christopher Higgins, an engineer, said he plans to take the Kickstarter page live on August 20. For now, it's viewable in a draft form so that people can provide feedback. Cellv1.0 consists of a board with a cellular chip, a power supply, and a SIM holder, as well as a "jumper board" that "includes level shifters for whatever voltage levels you're using (ex. 3.3V, 5V, or other)." As for getting a SIM card, the Kickstarter suggests taking one out of your phone, purchasing a pre-paid SIM from a retailer, or buying them directly from SparqEE.
These Self-Assembling Blocks Will Make Real-Life Transformers Possible The M-Blocks, created by John Romanishin at MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, are self-assembling robots that move themselves around like magnetic Mexican jumping beans. They might not look like much right now, but don't be fooled: These colorful robot-building blocks could be a technological breakthrough that makes real-life Transformers possible. Usually, robots that can reconfigure themselves do so by sliding across one another without changing their orientation. In other words, if you had two robot cubes and marked each side with cardinal directions (north, south, east, west, up, down), those cubes could reconfigure themselves in many ways in relationship to one another, but the north sides would always point north, south sides south, and so on. What makes the M-Block so unique is that it doesn't slide; it bounces.
Move over Google Glass, here comes $300 competition from France SAN FRANCISCO—If French startup Optinvent is right, what we all really want is a bigger screen directly in front of our eyes. Sure, Google Glass may be the best-known example of a heads-up display, but Kayvan Mirza says that Glass simply doesn’t cut it. Over breakfast at Blue Bottle Coffee on Wednesday, Optinvent’s CEO demonstrated a mockup of the company’s new ORA-S for Ars. Soon, Rich People Will Be Ballooning Through the Stratosphere A new “space tourism” company by the name of World View has announced plans to whisk away wealthy patrons by offering exclusive balloon tours of the stratosphere that can begin as early as sometime in 2015. A specially designed capsule will allow enough room for six passengers and two crew members as well as a complimentary bar. After initial take-off it will only take about an hour and a half for the giant balloon to ascend 18 miles into the stratosphere, at which point it will casually drift along for a couple of hours before eventually descending back to the Earth’s surface.
Could a Balloon Fly in Outer Space? Here’s the sort of crazy idea that animates our office conversation at Scientific American. It all started with my colleague Michael Moyer’s joke that a certain politician could build his moon base using a balloon: just capture the hot air and float all the way up. Ha ha, we all know that balloons don’t work in outer space. But is that really true? High-altitude balloon High-altitude balloons are unmanned balloons, usually filled with helium or hydrogen, that are released into the stratosphere, generally attaining between 60,000 to 120,000 feet (11 to 23 mi; 18 to 37 km). During 2002, a balloon named BU60-1 attained 53.0 km (32.9 mi; 173,900 ft).[1] The most common type of high altitude balloons are weather balloons. Other purposes include use as a platform for experiments in the upper atmosphere. Modern balloons generally contain electronic equipment such as radio transmitters, cameras, or satellite navigation systems, such as GPS receivers. These balloons are launched into what is termed "near space"—- the area of Earth's atmosphere where there is very little air, but where the remaining amount generates too much drag for satellites to remain in orbit.
The Seagate Kinetic Open Storage Vision The World of Storage Has Changed: Data Types, Access Models, Demand and Use Cases Over the past decade, the explosive growth of large-scale, data-driven applications has begun to shift the nature of enterprise storage infrastructure fundamentally. The traditional paradigm of hardware-centric, file-based systems is moving aside to make way for new software-defined, object-based approaches. The new paradigm is an object-oriented one: a world of pictures, movies, ecommerce and Web data, search, and games, and archives of all of these. In this world, objects (information) are written, read and deleted but never modified. Increasingly, systems and data centers are designed for capacity rather than performance.
