Under the cut a bit of detail about Touch surgery

“Touch surgery” – was conceived in 2013 as a training simulator for surgeons with different experiences, and to date has received high evaluation of the medical community and major medical institutions, as well as support for the exchange of experience and information.

It is believed the creators, using software the surgeon can assess the pre-operative time, the complexity and the potential risks that may arise in the process, before the “cut in the living,” and today this possibility remote does not offer any services.

The use of “Touch surgery” is simple: after the registration and the “calibration” with the indication of areas of interest, the surgeon begins the practice, during which the service can count the number of errors and, if necessary, in case of doubt, to give “tips” or expert advice. The system is updated tips and “case studies” of medical practitioners all over the world!

The list of operations is also duplicated on the official website and in the teaser, you can find out what exactly the problem “will teach” during the assignment.

Page operations more describe the problem to be solved, with milestones, a brief motivation, indications for surgery, and in some cases the procedure if it is the author. Also provides a brief biography of the author, medical “case study.”

Despite the fact that the application, it is necessary to add that this is not the only software for the surgery, which is today, and many are familiar with, such as “Diagnozaurus” answers to questions, videos and text, a subscription to the desired article, and so on. n. Or PreOpEval, which helps to plan the operation and speed up the process, taking into account the patient’s history. Widely known Atlas surgeries available on IOS and Android.

Nowadays more popular worn on the wrist watches, especially smart watches, which can be sometimes easier in terms of access than smartphones, which often need to use to get out of his pocket. But such things, of course, there is one big disadvantage – at their tiny screens. This would make them quite difficult to use when performing certain tasks, especially those where the larger interface area just vital. Well, it is – just where can squeeze a new technology iSkin. The experimental system allows users to control mobile devices using flexible, stretchable labels, which are attached directly to their skin.

Designed by a team of Saarlandskogo University in Germany and at Carnegie Mellon University in the USA, the prototype iSkin silicone is a type of label stickers containing a capacitive sensors and sensors that react to touch. They can be made in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, and thus temporarily applied almost anywhere within the body surface due to the type of medical adhesive.

If one of them is required only periodically, it can be removed from the body, folded and removed somewhere in a safe place if not expected his imminent use. Prospective applications of such labels include the reception and make phone calls, control the playback of recorded music, set and send messages, or many other things, that it is currently being done on your mobile device. They are able to perceive multi-touch, as well as recognize gestures such as a heavy blow.

Current prototypes are connected by wires to a computer, but despite this the authors of the project claim that the communication with the device will be performed wirelessly and very soon it will become possible.

Samsung Electronics has announced the release of innovative components for mobile devices of the next generation. Represented by an 8-megapixel sensor with a color filter RWB (Red-White-Blue / Red-White-Blue) based on proprietary technology ISOCELL for the front camera, as well as integrated circuit NFC (Near Field Communication) with improved radio frequency performance.

The new 8 megapixel CMOS-sensor image with color filter technology based RWB ISOCELL – model Samsung S5K4H5YB – provides high image quality when shooting in low light conditions and high color accuracy. Combining technology and capabilities ISOCELL recently developed by Samsung color filter RWB, this sensor provides high-quality digital images.

Samsung ISOCELL proprietary technology significantly increases sensitivity and allows you to effectively control the collection of photons, which provides highly accurate color reproduction even in low light conditions. Creating special physical barriers between each pixel ISOCELL technology reduces cross interference power at 30% and 30% capacity increase rate of the potential well (FWC, full well capacity) in comparison with a conventional pixel sensors BSI (Back Side Illumination).

The new color filter RWB further improves sensitivity and color reproduction, allowing you to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of more than 3 dB (decibels) in low light conditions. In addition, unlike other types of configurations of color filters, a high similarity between the RWB and the RGB model eliminates the need to convert RGB RWB, which prevents the undesirable change in color.

Launching a new 8 megapixel sensor RWB ISOCELL Samsung’s mass production of the product is scheduled for the second quarter of this year.

The new IC NFC (model S3FWRN5P) provides significantly improved RF performance – more than 100% in card emulation mode and 20% in reading mode compared to its predecessor.

The integrated circuit equipped with the one of the small antennas are currently on the market, which is supplied in the form factor of the film type and can be installed on the smartphone without additional auxiliary devices. This allows manufacturers of mobile devices further advantages in the design, enabling to meet current consumer demand for thinner and lighter device.

NFC integrated circuit meets the strict requirements of POS-terminals to pay in retail outlets and fully supports a new generation of smartphones. With the integration of flash memory Samsung, produced on 45-nanometer process, the new IC NFC also helps customers save time and resources for further development and certification.

The new IC NFC already put into mass production, the reference sample of the product is already available for manufacturers.

The problem with modern devices, particularly smart watches – battery capacity is low. Smartwatch can be a very good assistant in your work and life, but only for the period for which enough battery power. And this is – a few hours, maximum – daylight. Company Broadcom and Texas Instruments are trying to solve the problem.

According to the developers, the solution could be a new architecture of chips for mobile devices. Both companies submitted updated chips, which can increase the battery life of mobile devices.

Both platforms are provided by companies that can help a relatively new market for smart hours to become more open and close for the consumer. If you extend the battery life of mobile smart-hours, users will be more actively buying such gadgets.

Experts believe that the market is now wearable devices is only in its infancy, and already by 2018 the number of portable gadgets is expected to increase to 112 million from about 19 million this year.

Broadcom representatives argue that the new platform for smart devices to work hours allow up to 4 days in stand-alone mode.

At the same time, the company Texas Instruments believes that its platform will enable intelligent hours work a few weeks. This becomes possible by reducing the chip size and increasing the performance of such systems. Device with the update from Texas Instruments can be very small, and used in smart clothes and miniature sensors.

The company agreed to cooperate, believing that platform, provided their association, make portable devices more economical in terms of energy consumption and functional.

Texas Instruments will launch its platform this week and Broadcom – later this year.

The number of “smart” (and not) devices is growing every day. But few anticipated how quickly.

If you believe the United States Census Bureau, the world population is about 7.2 billion people. Every second in the world is born 2 new resident that annually increases above figure by 1.2%.

Awesome? Not the word! But proud of the achievements of late, because people have long since left phones.

The company’s specialists GSMA Intelligence analyzed the situation and came to a frightening conclusion. Number of SIM cards working right now, more than 7.2 billion.

So traditional cellular, smartphones and tablets more than the owners.

And the growth continues and speed phenomena threatening. Inhabitants of the earth are inferior device in 5 times (same parameter). But personal communications have said for a measly 3 decades.

Today, they help to users. What’s next? Learn how to “talk” to each other? Hi, singularity? Hello, Skynet?

In every joke, as they say …

Most of us are forced to put their devices to charge every night, and some did it have to travel several times a day. This can hardly be called a great user experience. And despite this, smartphones continue to improve all sorts of indicators, except the duration of their work. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. At least one company is trying to solve this problem and at the same time talking about the whole week battery life, and her name – Microsoft.

Some time ago we told you about the operating time Nokia, which has now become the property of Microsoft, in the field of alternative energy sources for a smartphone. It seems that the new owner of the Finnish company is not less concerned about not calling her delight autonomous mobile gadgets.

Problem is well aware of any smartphone user. While the screens and the productive capacity of pocket assistants grow almost every day, the technology used in the batteries are in place.

But what is the solution? The use of large batteries or maybe wait a revolutionary new technology in the field of batteries? In Microsoft has an opinion, it’s all about optimization. In the role of evidence supports this position well LG G3 with its technology 3A, through which slows the speed of display frames and reduced production capacity when the device does not need it. And Microsoft also has something to show on this topic.

For example, the use of two batteries in one device but not in the queue, as it is currently, and together. One of them is used for intensive processes, such as games, and another – provides the standby mode, and performing other minor problems. Prototypes of such devices show an increase in autonomy by 20-50%, that despite the large range, yet significant step forward.

Most other projects as well as 3A, associated with optimization software. One such project is called E-Loupe and is monitoring the most demanding applications and their deceleration when the program considers it appropriate. In addition, a tool for developers and helping to predict how “greedily” is their application and easy to temper his appetite.

How real autonomy weekly smartphone? Now it seems almost unattainable goal. Nevertheless LG bad moves in this direction by introducing the world first LG G2, autonomy is not only praised lazy, and now the G3, which, despite its characteristics, is at least as competitors. Can not but rejoice that such a large company like Microsoft, addressing this issue. The more competitors will be involved in the solution of this problem, the sooner we’ll get a decent product.
