  • MIT Develops Algorithm To Help Robots Predict Human Movements

    MIT Develops Algorithm To Help Robots Predict Human Movements

    Robots and humans are capable of functioning in close proximity to each other. For instance, in factories, robots assemble the moving parts of a machine, while the human workforce is responsible for transporting different parts between workstations. However, some hindrances might lead to unexpected slowdowns, consequently reducing the efficiency of the whole system. Hence, researchers at MIT have designed an algorithm that can predict where humans will go next.

    In the year 2018, MIT researchers and BMW automobiles were testing ways where humans and robots could collaborate to speed up car assemblies. In such an instance, robots were programmed to pause momentarily whenever a human passes close by. However, it was noted that the robots would literally freeze and held their state for a long time instead of resuming their functions. Such unnecessary pauses would translate to a huge loss in efficiency. The researchers at MIT came up with a solution for the same. 

    Humans And Robots

    The team discovered that the major problem lies in the robot’s trajectory alignment algorithms. The pre-fed algorithms could accurately predict a human’s future movements, but the major limitation resided in its ability to predict how long would a person take to move to any point in the predicted path. A new algorithm was developed by the MIT research team which anticipates the timing of a person’s motion in addition to guessing his/her movements.  When the algorithm was applied, it was derived that the robot became much more responsive than before. Instead of freezing in place when someone walked by, the robot simply rolled out of the way and resumed later.

    Julie Shah, a member of the team stated that the algorithm mimics human motion to such an extent that the robot can understand and monitor pauses in natural movement. The results of the latest studies and research will be presented at the Robotics: Science and Systems conference in Germany.

  • iPhone 11 To Feature Google Pixel Like Night Mode

    iPhone 11 To Feature Google Pixel Like Night Mode

    Apple, one of the most popular smartphone brands in the world is preparing for the launch of its latest handsets to the global audience. The American company is reported to release its newest generation of flagship devices (iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Max and iPhone 11R) in September 2019. Various leaks online have been risen up, showcasing numerous renders, specifications, and features before the launch of the upcoming iPhones. A new report points at the Apple iPhones sporting a Google Pixel like Night Sight camera feature.

    iPhone

    According to newly leaked information, the upcoming smartphones will have a dedicated ‘night mode’ camera feature. Night Mode helps the camera capture better pictures in environments that are not optimally illuminated. The leak reports that the feature can be manually toggled by the user but the device will also be able to automatically activate by detecting light density. This report is yet to be confirmed, however, looking at the adoption rate of other companies it is a feature Apple would probably incorporate in its new generation iPhone.

    Apple’s latest iPhones have been seen in renders sporting a triple camera module setup, while the iPhone 11R may receive a dual camera sensor at the back. Hence, a camera mode for better low-light photography may not be far off. Google and Huawei have arguably one of the better results with the night mode feature, but the report also claims Apple’s version of the aforementioned feature will outperform the competition.

    Apple, with the latest iPhones, is placing more emphasis on the camera hardware and software upgrades. This will be important for the company facing neck-in-neck competition in the smartphone industry. Although the company has lagged behind in the overall global market, Apple is still the most popular smartphone brand in the US. Faster adoption of trending innovation will only widen the company’s foothold within the mobile industry. 

  • Samsung Patents Smartphone With 3D Curved Display

    Samsung Patents Smartphone With 3D Curved Display

    Smartphone brands are constantly experimenting new device designs to improve user functionality. Along the same lines, South Korean company Samsung seems to be working on a device with a screen that curves towards the edges. Although smartphones with 3D curved glass have been around for quite some time now, the patented design has some notably unique aspects.

    About The Patent

    Samsung curved smartphone

    The patent regarding the “curved-screen device” was filed with the WIPO (World Intellectual Property Office) by Samsung towards the latter half of the year 2018. It exhibits an ‘Electronic device with full display’ i.e a smartphone with an edge to edge display. Furthermore, the camera and additional sensors are placed under the display of the smartphone. A similar technology was previously shown off by Chinese brands Xiaomi and Oppo. The patent was filed on the behalf of both USA and Korea, which was published on June 6, 2019. 

    Images included in the patent exhibit slightly curved shape of the device. The central section of the display is rendered as a flat surface, whereas the surrounding modules have a 3D curved design. The framework of the Samsung device is equally angled to the display at all points, which implies that the handset will have increased resistance to accidental drops. Notably, the patent includes two different device models: one with a thinner frame and the other with a noticeably thicker and wider frame than its counterpart. 

    Samsung curved smartphone

    As per renders, the back panel of the device seems to be fabricated out of glass. If the company decides to use a metal housing for such a device, the casing can double up as an antenna for the smartphone. However, if the company decides to incorporate a glass housing, wireless charging can be made possible in the Samsung device. The interesting fact about the handset design is the presence of a similar curvature on the back. Such a curvature would mean that the device is slimmer towards the sides than the middle. As previously mentioned, the patent states that such a design would improve the user’s grip on the device.

    Regarding features, Samsung’s patent images point towards the presence of multiple rear camera sensors, that are placed in a vertical arrangement. As mentioned before, the front camera and sensors (such as the proximity sensor, flood illuminator) will be placed beneath the display. The right side of the device accommodates a single key, which indicates that the volume rockers may be capacitative. Overall, the curved smartphone design is a fresh take on compact yet attractive devices. Since the technology required to manufacture such a device wholly exists in the present day, Samsung may soon reveal more details about this concept. 

  • Pixel 4 Design Revealed By Google

    Pixel 4 Design Revealed By Google

    Google is expected to launch the next generation of its flagship smartphone lineup, known as the Google Pixel in the following months. Going by the company’s track record in the past, the official announcement may take place in the month of October. While still a few months away from the unveiling, a popular gadget tipster leaked the design of the upcoming Pixel 4 smartphone a few days ago. Now, in what could be called an unpredictable move, Google has put an end to all speculations and rumours by posting a picture on microblogging website Twitter confirming the design of the Pixel 4 series.

    Google Pixel 4 Design

    As mentioned above, Google has confirmed the design of its upcoming smartphones, allegedly called the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL. While the images only showcase what the rear of the devices will look like, it seems to be quite the change from their predecessors, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. It has been revealed that the handsets will utilise a square camera housing similar to the rumoured iPhone XI. The upcoming Google smartphones will have a dual camera setup; which may be comprised of a primary lens, a wide angle lens and an additional spectral sensor which handles light flicker while recording video.

    The images of the Pixel 4 revealed by Google also exhibit a glass back which suggests the presence of wireless charging like its predecessor. There is no physical fingerprint scanner present anywhere on the back of the smartphone. This insinuates that the upcoming device will have an in display fingerprint scanner or will rely entirely on some kind of face unlock technology. It is believed that Google will launch Pixel 4 in the aforementioned month of October. In the past, gadget leaks have been complained about of ruining the experience for the brand. So this move by Google leaking their smartphone officially, confirming the design of their upcoming product is a surprising and a welcome change. 

  • Apple And Microsoft Plan An iCloud App For Windows 10

    Apple And Microsoft Plan An iCloud App For Windows 10

    The American tech giants, Apple and Microsoft, are reportedly working in conjunction with one another for an iCloud app on Windows 10. While iCloud has been available on Microsoft’s platform for a while now, the cloud storage service will feature a sync capability based on tech similar to OneDrive’s Files On-Demand feature. This refreshed version of the Apple app is currently available in Microsoft’s Store and is free to download for everyone. 

    Apple

    The iCloud app will now be able to access files on the cloud without ever needing full sync to the PC, this will potentially save disk space. The app will take pre-emptive measures by downloading placeholders of files. The contents of these files will be downloaded when it is marked for sync or fully accessed by the user. iCloud can also integrate seamlessly into Windows 10 File Explorer, offering separate files for applications like Keynote, Numbers and Pages. 

    Users can access documents stored on the iCloud Drive, images taken from iCloud Photos, Mail, Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, and Safari bookmarks. Apple and Microsoft are business competitors hence, it is a rare occurrence for both companies to work together, especially for a Windows 10 software. Notably, Apple has also been using Microsoft’s latest Windows API for better cloud storage sync-ing capabilities for its proprietary online data storage solution.

    This collaboration arrives as a pleasant surprise to the tech industry, where competition in businesses goes neck-in-neck. Although these kinds of united work is always a welcomed sight. Previous iterations of iCloud for Windows had its fair share of criticism, so any pro-consumer practice only benefits either of the companies user bases. The new app should improve the overall user experience by fixing on a lot of the mistakes that were made in the past.
