First look at Simband, Samsung's health-tracking wearable of the future

First Look At Simband, Samsung's Health-Tracking Wearable Of The Future | The Simband, created by Samsung is intended to be used by those within the medical industry — startups and medical researchers alike to develop new applications for sensor technology.

The Dash Headphones

These wireless in-ear headphones will not only put an end to your tangled wire woes, they'll also measure your heart rate, body temperature, speed, number of steps and number of calories burned. Oh, and they play music pretty well, too.

They'll sit subtly in your ear, unlike other wearable headgear such as Google Glass.

Night Vision Contacts

University of Michigan researchers have created a new material that detects infrared light. The super-thin material can be integrated with different devices such as cell phones or placed on top of contact lenses to allow users to see in the dark. The material, graphene, is a single layer of carbon atoms that can sense the whole infrared spectrum.

Most devices with “night vision” now require a built in cooling unit in order for it to work properly. A huge advantage to this material is that it works at room temperature, no bulky cooling device needed. We can’t wait to see where this takes technology in the future. Rock on science.

This Case can add FOUR Extra CAMERA LENSES to your iPhone

Smartphone cameras are quickly replacing point-and-shoots in pockets, everywhere.

While users can definitely take some impressive shots with an iPhone camera, they're limited by its built-in lens. One accessory-maker is trying to expand lens options for cellphone cameras by offering a protective case with five additional lenses.

Called WoW, the smart-lens case has a built-in Macro lens for taking photos up close, a wide-angle lens, cameo function and a polarized neutral-density lens. All four lenses — along with an option to use your iPhone’s lens — are built into a spindle on the rear of the case.

The WoW case is currently seeking $50,000 in funding on Kickstarter, and has raised a little over $5,000 towards that goal.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY ONE......!

Hands on with Microsoft Band: It’s awkward and inaccurate, but stuffed with features

The upshot is the Microsoft Band never melts away into the background like a proper wearable. During testing, I always felt that something was on my wrist, especially when I banged the band on table tops, or got it caught on shirtsleeves. It’s omnipresent in the worst way possible.

The Microsoft Band is unique in that you can wear it on either wrist—all other wearables are designed for your non-dominant wrist. It can also be worn on the inside of your wrist. These options are nice, but I never found a comfortable position.

Parallella

Parallella is going to change the way that computers are made, and Adapteva offers you chance to join in on this revolution. Simply put, it’s a supercomputer for everyone. Basically, an energy-efficient computer built for processing complex software simultaneously and effectively. Real-time object tracking, holographic heads-up display, speech recognition will become even stronger and smarter with Parallella.

The project has been successfully funded so far, with an estimated delivery date of February 2013. For a mini supercomputer, the price seems really promising since it’s magically $99! It’s not recommended for the non-programmer and non-Linux user, but the kit is loaded with development software to create your personal projects.
