Perhaps you’ve seen Android Beam in your smartphone, but do you know what it is? Today we want to tell you about Android Beam and how it can be useful for Android users.

With Android Beam?

In simple words, Android Beam is the software that controls the technology NFC. As you probably know, NFC is an acronym for Near Field Communications. This wireless system allows you to transfer data between devices at close range.

As a fact, we note that the first phone with NFC technology was the Nokia 6131 and it was released in 2007. Over time, it began to appear more and more devices are equipped with NFC chips, especially high-end smartphones. The new technology has been applied to mobile payment, identification systems (access to buildings, transport, etc.), or simply exchanging information.

As I said before, Android Beam is software that optimizes the use of NFC. Android Beam function first appeared in the operating system Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich on the Galaxy Nexus smartphone four years ago.

What is the Android Beam?

Android Beam function can be used to send pictures, videos, links, contacts, location and more. To do this, you need to activate the NFC in setting menu.

Android Beam: what is it and what does it do?

Once you enable NFC, you can select the file you want to share, for example, a picture, click on the icon Share and choose “Android Beam”. Now attach your phone to another device, which you want to transfer a file, and the data is sent.

NFC technology is becoming popular in many stores and has great potential. Also we must not forget that NFC is one of the most secure technologies that available today.

Do you use Android Beam to transfer data? Do you believe in the bright future of technology NFC?

The first Swatch smart watches with NFC option will appear in May

Nicolas George Hayek, one of the founders of Swatch, shared information about new products, over which the company has worked all this time. The first model of smart hours to process payments due to the built-in NFC options will appear in May. Specifies that the clock will even be able to open the door to the hotel.

The second device is a Bluetooth will display notifications and news from your smartphone to go on sale this summer. Both models will be compatible with Android and Windows-based smartphones. Recall that recently the manufacturer has released a tracker for fans of beach volleyball – Swatch Touch Zero One.

“We are not going to carry phone features in a device that consumers put on the wrist. Let others do it. Samsung does this, Sony is doing it. Everyone does it, “- commented Nick Hayek news of the company.

As for contactless payments, it is reported that the Swatch signed a deal with a Chinese company China UnionPay. There is information that the Swiss watch manufacturer is actively cooperating with Visa, to cover as many countries.

Hayek shared with Bloomberg, the company is working on an innovative technology that allows devices to work without time limit. While we are aware of an example trackers Withings, which can work without additional charge for 6 months.

Most analysts tend to think that Swatch, releasing two models of smart hours in the spring and summer of this year, try to compete with Apple Watch, which should appear on sale on April 24, however, whether the Swiss manufacturer of analog clock to create as much interest in technical terms Watch that other developers of smart devices?

We are silent about the design. After all, what’s what, and in a boring performance clock accuse Apple is very difficult.

Samsung Electronics introduced new solutions for next-generation mobile devices

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.
