Create a "gun" that makes you shut up

Mandar silence someone might be much easier thanks to an original and controversial Nippon invention. Two Japanese researchers have created SpeechJammer , a gadget that when "triggers" can cause a person to stop talking in seconds , interrupting his speech in midsentence.

The creators of this invention, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology of Japan and Ochanomizu University, say in an article in arVix that the device does not cause any physical discomfort and stop acting as the speaker stops talking . Its operation is based on the psychologists discovered years ago that it is almost impossible to talk about when we hear our own words with a delay of only a fraction of a second. Kurihara and Tsukada have created a portable device with a built-in microphone, you record a snippet of conversation, and a speaker that plays 0.2 seconds later.

Both elements are directional, so it can be activated remotely, as if "disparásemos" a weapon, although in this case only beeps. In the article, the authors assert that this mill could improve the dynamics of communication in discussions and debates , especially when one party gets heavy. O silence someone who speaks out loud in a library or a movie theater and even a fellow chatters incessantly office phone into a high voice annoying his colleagues. So far, there have been references to the ethical and legal issues that would have a machine that forces people to stop talking.

Headphones for depression and jetlag

Patients suffering from seasonal affective disorder (SAD acronym in English) and show symptoms of depression every winter are in luck. The Finnish company has created Valkee Ltd. headphones, instead of sounds, bright light sent directly to the brain through the ear canal. In this way, say from the company, you may " prevent and cure depression, mood swings and circadian rhythm disorders such as jet lag .

"In the first clinical trials of the invention, which has been developed with the participation of neurologists and physiologists at the University of Oulu (Finland), the headset Valkee reduced or completely eliminated the symptoms of SAD in 90% of patients after 4 weeks use, with a daily dose of 8-12 minutes. Also used to treat anxiety, reducing the symptoms up to 60%. "Valkee increases the amount of light reaching the brain to natural levels when external light is not sufficient and there is a safe and natural recharge," the researchers say. not the first gadget that is created to fight depression with Light . A team of engineers from Denmark has recently created the "sunglasses" SEQUINETIC , which provide light equivalent to natural daylight.

Glasses to replace the computer and the mobile

In the future need not look down at your computer or mobile device, because we can see all the information through glasses. Robocop style This technology is not science fiction, many companies are already working on it. Some of them presented their progress at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas (USA), a huge market where small and large companies give their ideas and innovations in electronics.

One of the prototypes of glasses, presented by the company Lumus Optics (Tel Aviv, Israel), gets the images from a computer or mobile device via Bluetooth. Ari Grobman, company manager, told Technology Review of the multiple possibilities offered by these technologies. For example, adding a camera to goggle systems could be used facial recognition as those who already use Facebook and Google that helps users in tasks like tagging photos. 

For its part, the company Vuzic (Rochester, New York), has developed an industrial version designed to work like overlapping planes of a machine in the vision of a mechanic. The device is very useful in facilitating the work of any technical support team, they will be able to obtain images in your field of vision to guide them.

Other companies are working on augmented reality applications, similar to those that already exist in some smartphones . Aurasma, a division of Autonomy software company, has developed a device that can recognize images of reference and add virtual 3D objects. It is also possible to recognize hand gestures, which facilitates the interactivity of virtual content in smart glasses. 

much more futuristic, the Smart Goggles Sensics Company (Columbia, USA) covering the eyes and ears of a person and completely immerse you in a virtual world 3D . This is possible thanks to 11 mobile phone cameras and a video screen in front of each eye. 

In the not too distant future this type of innovation will change things so much that he said Matt Mills, a member of Aurasma, the most often to get information is through smart glasses need to go to a web browser Internet , as this procedure is much faster than even take a photo.

Apple unveiled the iPhone 3 on March 7

The technology company Apple announced Tuesday the conclusion of an event in San Francisco on March 7 in which it looks like it was unveiling the new version of its popular "tablet" iPad from which the details are still unknown.

Apple sent an invitation which summoned reporters that they should come next week at the Yerba Buena Arts Center in the center of the Californian city. In the call only sees an image of an iPhone screen with the day 7 March in the calendar marked with the following message: "We really have something to do. And touch. "

The company, true to form, avoided further the contents of the presentation, but it is assumed that revolve around the device and popularly called iPad 3. Both 2010 and 2011, Apple spent his first event of the year to talk about his revolutionary "tablet" with the idea that novelty hits the market between March and April.

The U.S. media speculate that the new iPhone is equipped with the same clarity of display the latest versions of iPhone, a definition called Retina Display, best cameras for photo and video , and the possibility of 4G connection.

Nokia launches Lumia 610, the cheapest of its mobile ready with Windows

Nokia, the mobile giant that last fair bet that Windows 7 has introduced a new batch of phones with this operating system. The first major presentation of a manufacturer on Monday has been dominated by design and desire to open up to new audiences. Nokia has focused n avoiding technical experiences, processors and details of hardware .

Before an audience among expectant and delivered, Nokia has shown its new handsets. The Lumia 900, which is already in the United States and was presented at CES, coming to Europe with Skype preinstalled. Its price is 480 euros free. Lumia Model 610, somewhat below the current 710, focused on music, will cost 189 euros. It will be a mid-range phone but with a set price that similar end Android. The company has risen to its website a video where you can see the features of this new phone.

Stephen Elop, CEO of the company, has announced Asha models, intended for an audience with less purchasing power in emerging and developing a way to keep the places where most recognized brand. They also want to land in China, where they believe it may grow by 60%.

Nokia has closed the presentation with a new sounding past: Nokia 808 Pure View, a phone with Symbian, its previous operating system, and a sensor of 41 megapixels. Far superior not only competence, but also usual for the cameras. The doubts not only reside in the fluidity of the apparatus, the time between photos and the future of the platform, but also the need not to fill storage with few snapshots. It will cost 450 euros and the optics is the German Carl Zeiss is synonymous with quality.

All Nokia phones come in the second half of the year.

The iPad can be reached by March 3

Well, it seems that is beginning to be more specific about the iPad3 . As reported in Bloomberg, the new Apple device will be announced in March, and will, among other improvements, with a new quad-core processor .

According to three different sources, the device would already be in production and most of the initial units to be fabricated in February, just in time for a release just a month later. The tablets come from Foxconn , a leading provider of Apple in China, and the factory would already be working around the clock, before the "crisis" will suffer during the upcoming Chinese New Year celebration.

In terms of performance and features, managed by Bloomberg sources are not too specific, but do offer important clues. For one thing, the screen will have a much higher definition than the current iPhone. In fact, you have many more pixels than HD TVs than there currently on the market.

According to one of the experts consulted, "the new screen pixels are so small that it seems that the images are printed on it."

Extraordinary power
There is also talk of a quad core, that is, four cores , while the current standard, with one exception of Asus, is the dual core. The processor of the new iPad would give him extraordinary power . This characteristic, along with a new graphics processor, the videos would be opened "almost instantly".

Another novelty is that the new iPhone would be compatible with LTE , the next step in 3G mobile and begin to unfold in the coming years. It is curious that Apple chooses to incorporate LTE in tablet rather than the iPhone. The reason, says Bloomberg, lies in the battery. The iPhone has a bigger battery and more capable than the iPhone. And LTE is a technology that needs more energy than the current 3G.

Alienware X51, the computer console format

Anyone who follows closely the evolution of hardware components is well known that not only are becoming more powerful, but also getting smaller. The introduction of reduced size format has opened the door to countless projects of "modding", but also finished products and ready to use. Alienware has led to the end to some of its settings for laptops, but when you see the X51 , the first thought is that it is a console.

On several occasions I thought that if he were to pose my paws on an Xbox 360 , the first thing I do is install your hardware in a computer casing. No need to remember the many problems that Microsoft's console suffered at the hands of poor cooling, let alone the famous "Red Ring of Death" , courtesy of welds of poor quality, among other things. For now, Xbox 360 is not within my planned purchases, but the format encouraged both my ideas and those of many enthusiasts. Some of them have been modified extensively to the console, but others decided to work from a similar size with the aim of installing computer hardware. The format Mini-ITX has been a blessing, and there are motherboards you can install some components are very powerful.

On the other hand, you can use a ready-to-use alternative systems such as the X51 Alienware recently introduced. Alienware X51 dimensions are 343 mm in its upper part, by 95 mm wide and 318 mm deep, slightly larger than the first Xbox 360 format (309 by 83 by 258 mm). Your configuration may have some modifications according to the budget of the user. You may opt for a Core i3-2120, a Core i5-2320, or a Core i7-2600 (without the denomación K). Available graphics processors are the Geforce GT 545 Geforce GTX or 555. You can receive a maximum of up to 8 GB of DDR3 RAM and has a healthy repertoire of ports, among which are USB 2.0 (6), USB 3.0 (2), HDMI and optical audio outputs. The Alienware X51 is available with a one terabyte hard drive (I imagine that the user can install larger units on their own, even externally), Wireless-N card, and either a conventional DVD recorder, or a unit "combo" with Blu-ray.

From 543 euros
The price in the United States of Alienware X51 starts at $ 699 (543 €), amounting to $ 1,149 (893 €) at the highest setting. The amount may seem a bit high, especially if we consider that the user must also take over the mouse, keyboard, and of course the screen, but the assembled solutions are always attractive to a lot of users. On the other hand, I know that readers of NeoTeo have more sympathy for arming their own monsters that are smaller, and point to a format not bigger than a console would be a stunning project.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Play: The first Android smart phone

A few months that Sony will present his vision of PlayStation Phone now found on sale Xperia Play , "the first Android smartphone certified PlayStation.

In matters of design we are a team in the same style as Sony Ericsson has managed in line Xperia , with the clear difference in the screen include sliding a configuration similar to the control buttons Dual Shock . This design, along with the ability to play PlayStation titles true, is its main advantage over the competition that is Windows Phone 7 with its latest lineup of games for Xbox Live .

As for technical specifications we find a fairly robust computer, with all the features you expect from a good phone but certainly below other high-end phones, this is probably thinking of keeping a good quality / price ratio. Since the computer system operates on the Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) we can find a variety of available applications and games developed on this platform.

In terms of titles available at launch, we have a library quite varied, ranging from games like Assassin's Creed, Worms, Sims 3 for mobile versions and adaptations of classic PS1 as Crash Bandicoot and Syphon Filter on the promise by Sony adaptations of such titles as God of War and Call of Duty in the future.

In conclusion we can say that Xperia Play comes with a solid proposal to create a mobile game and although it is still early to put aside our beloved PSP and DS portable video game about respect is clear that Sony has taken a step in the direction correct.

Sony PlayStation Vita: The next generation portable

Probably some of the most anticipated news of E3 2011 revolve around the successor to the PSP known as NGP ( Next Generation Portable ) and here Sony does not disappoint delivering a great deal of information about the laptop is expected to arrive in the final market 2011 under the name of the official PlayStation Vita.

Although not revealed an exact release date, it's official that we can get our hands on this laptop by the end of this year, and perhaps most impressive is the final price for North America of $ 249 for the version with only Wi-Fi and $ 299 for Wi-Fi/3G version. While confirming that the 3G service provider in the U.S. is AT & T did not give more details on procurement costs and data plans.

Sony aims for greater interaction of this new laptop with the PS3 , since for example we can find some games on both consoles with the possibility of online matches between players of both platforms. Furthermore, with the chance to play PSP titles Vita acquired via PlayStation Store and PS3 game adaptation, given the similar graphics capabilities with the latter, we can expect an extensive library of titles.

Nintendo Wii in 2012 U

Just recently he started the rumor of a new console from Nintendo HD , and being on the eve of E3 certainly had formed great expectations about it. Finally, in his press conference Nintendo released its new piece of hardware under the name U Wii , and although the information disclosed was very brief and we can go getting an idea of what the future family member of the big N.

For several months sales of the Wii console go into a tailspin. This is probably due to the recent launches of motion controls on other consoles ( PS Move and Kinect ), leaving us wondering if the Wii U will not be coming too late to run high-definition consoles.

Although no technical specifications of equipment offered a demo of Zelda rendered in real time and displayed at 1080p graphics power reveals a close-if not like-which have the PS3 and 360.
But what really drew attention to the U was a new Wii control, which consists of a touch screen of 6.2 "surrounded by a broad framework that we find the buttons on a traditional power like microphone, speakers, camera, sensor infrared and even a stylus .

Briefly during the conference and later she made some demonstrations of the usefulness of this new peripherals, such as the ability to view video and other content on your screen, and even the same game transmitted wirelessly from the console.

Another relevant point is the interest shown by other companies ( Third party ) to develop titles for the Wii U, among which were even games rated "M" Dark Siders 2 and Ninja Gaiden ,. However, no featured  demos of any of these. Hopefully in the future to see innovative games developed by third parties for the U Wii, not the current console, where few companies tried to exploit the potential of Nintendo.

Up to now know the price and exact date of release of U Wii some point beyond 2012.

Human Charger: convert body heat into energy

Fujitsu Laboratories developed a small device that when used on the human body converts body heat into energy. The project is still being perfected and should reach the market by 2015, many manufacturers are already interested in this technology.

This battery has a hybrid operation, as it can be powered by sunlight but in turn also thanks to the warmth.

At that time the stores this energy like a battery for later use. The device also is hybrid because it also manages to capture energy from sunlight.

This new venture may have huge profits that have not yet been tested, this is the first product that harnesses the power of warmth and sunlight at the same time.
Previously this required two separate devices and elements such as batteries.

"In the field of medicine this technology can be used in sensors that monitor conditions such as temperature, blood pressure and heart problems, without electrical connection, "the company said.

"If the ambient light and heat were not enough to power the sensor, this technology can supply power to both sources increased each other. Besides this device can be used to control for example the weather forecast."

Fujitsu is still working to perfect your project and hopes to release it in early 2015.

The top 10 gadgets of 2011

We enter the final stretch of the year before selecting the best gadgets in each category for the awards clipete we chose the 10 that have marked 2011. Not everyone has come to Spain and many of them face each other in the same product category. However, the importance of each gadget or what they represent, have earned appear on the list top 10 as the most important gadgets of 2011 Did we miss any?

Microsoft Xbox Kinect

The motion control system (and voice) has revolutionized the world of video games and more. The Nintendo Wii was the beginning, but Microsoft has managed to find the continuation and give much more than talk when it is integrated into other devices.

Apple iPad 2 
The second tablet Apple has managed to make the gap with the rest of the Android clones with only a few basic upgrades. Maybe in the future sell more Android but the reference will remain the iPad.

LG 3D Cinema
When criticism of 3D displays were all out by the high price of the glasses (they were also inconsistent between brands) LG came with their system of passive polarized glasses and democratized the enjoyment of 3D content without spending a euro more.

Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Nexus

The two major terminals Android the year that have been put on the ropes the ubiquitous iPhone. The S2 has been the most known, but the newcomer Nexus will give a lot to talk about. The battle of the smartphones continues.

Apple Macbook Air 

Though we take on the market since 2007, has been now that the MacBook Air has grown up making a power comparable to that of a conventional laptop, keeping its stunning design and lightness. 

Nintendo 3DS 

For better or worse Nintendo has made its commitment to getting handheld fully in 3D. The results have been mixed and although it has been below expectations, the new Nintendo console offers 3D experience without glasses at a good number of people.

NEX Sony and Fujifilm x100

Two cameras that have broken with the establishment. On the one hand the system NEX-interchangeable lens compact cameras, there has been renewed with models that offer a high quality beating many SLRs. On the other Fujifilm has regained the pleasure of photography more staff and made with the X100.

Apple iPhone 4S (Siri) 

This time the revolution has been both the hardware and software. The brain of the new iPhone integrates IRIS, the first personal assistant that recognizes the natural language that represents the first step of the gadgets that obey orders. Too bad it is not already in Spanish.

Amazon Kindle Fire

The only brand that has really managed to create a tablet as attractive as the iPhone has been Amazon. And while the biggest attraction is its Kindle Fire very small price ($ 199) should not underestimate the power of Amazon, which successfully launched the Kindle e-book while the rest failed.

Boxee and Roku

Two systems almost unknown in Spain but great success in the U.S. and has led the new generation of television to the classroom. Goodbye to traditional channels as we have known. SmartTV systems put on the screen hundreds of channels with movies, series, documentaries and webTV (Youtube, Vimeo, etc.) for you to enjoy your TV to the letter.

Apple breaks 'tradition' and put a different processor in their new iPhone5 and iPad3

The Apple company in recent years has been for repeat custom processor models in their new gadget. The device that usually occurs in January for tablet models iPad is the same which is incorporated in the new iPhone which, by custom, are presented in autumn.

But according to several analysts have been told at Susquehanna Financial , the norm in the Cupertino company will break into the new cycle of presentation of their gadgets . "The processor is a CPU iPhone5 completely different from what it is incorporated into the new iPad", say the experts in a report published in the portal PwnageTool.

"On the iPhone5," says analyst Chris Caso, Susquehanna, "production is estimated for early June 2012." The new Apple smartphone will replace the iPhone 4S, which only takes two months on the market .

The portal Portaltic adds more information about the new smartphone model, advancing its screen size is (4.2 inches) and resolution (1440 by 800 pixels) higher than the current model, which has 3.5 inches and 960 by 640 pixels, respectively.

The camera of the new Apple phone could also increase its resolution of 8 to 12 megapixels, a potential image quality and other smartphones have "sold in the market.

Nikon has their cameras without mirrors

Along with Canon, Nikon is the leading brand of camera mirror par excellence. So much so that both chambers had no markings such as "micro four thirds." With the introduction of the new Nikon 1 V1 and J1 on Wednesday Nikon, Canon has become the only company that does not have in its inventory of these devices.

This is the least risky bet. While the Japanese market cameras without mirrors are all the rage and now represent over 30 percent of the total market in Europe and the U.S. seem to need a boost. In fact the only American country account for 10 percent of total sales of cameras with interchangeable lens models.

As well its name implies, the difference between the classic DSLR and current micro four thirds is the lack of the latter a system of mirrors. This difference is in many ways: from the minimalism of the design, reducing its size to weight reduction. And all thanks to improved technology using sensors that are becoming more developed and better capture the images.

Both new models feature a 10.1 megapixel sensor CMOS also record video. In addition, video cameras to allow slow-motion mode and reaches 10 frames per second burst shooting mode.
As explained in Nikon cameras will be sold starting in October and will cost around 900 euros, although the final price will depend on each country.

The head of PlayStation Europe, Jim Ryan , explained that Sony will not let the same thing happen that happened with PS3 in the next generation of consoles. Console sales were weighed down by a much later release Xbox 360 , so that the launch of PlayStation 4 will coincide in time with the competition.

Sony's rivals in the world of video games and being considered for release dates of its next generation of consoles. The console Nintendo Wii U is expected in April 2012, while the new Xbox from Microsoft may be submitted at the next E3 2012, with its launch could occur late this year or early-mid 2013.

To avoid what happened with PlayStation 3-which came to market a year later than Xbox 360, directly rival Sony PlayStation 4 launching arises at about the same time as the new consoles from Microsoft and Nintendo.

According to an interview with Eurogamer TV last week, during the presentation of PS Vita in London PlaySation leader said Europe would not be a good strategy to arrive later than rivals. "We consider it desirable to launch the next generation of PlayStation significantly later than the competition," says Ray.

Further work on PS3
Given the scenario that will come in 2012 along with the current economic situation of the company, everything indicates that PS4 could hit the market soon. But Ray also said that currently there is still much work with the current generation of PlayStation, PS3, since most sales of their consoles are produced with lower prices the same as happened with PS2.

"If you look at PlayStation 2, there are over 150 million units sold worldwide and a large majority were acquired at a price of 139 euros or less. With PS3 we have just lowered the price to 240 euros, so clearly there is considerable untapped market, "says Ray.

So far, the most anticipated release for users is that of the last console Sony laptop, PS Vita. This console hit the market in Japan December 17 and February 22, 2012 in Europe. In the European case, on 30 November and could be reserved two exclusive packs PS Vita. Users will have to pay 30 euros a sign that the final price will be discounted and may get the console with official products and discounts for online gaming.
