and Transparent OLED display solutions,'said Samsung. The technology consists of a 55-inch mirror fitted with a transparent OLED on the front.

It is fitted with Intel's Real Sense technology, which uses 3d cameras to track the viewer and display clothes and other items virtually,

as if they were wearing them. Together, Samsung said the technology creates a'virtual fitting room'that will be used to help people see themselves wearing clothes

A spokeman added that the Samsung Mirror Display may also replace home mirrors in the future, showing digital information to homeowners in the same space where they now just have a traditional mirror.

compared to eight milliseconds on LCD transparent panels. Samsung's Mirror Display technology also does need not the ambient backlight for displaying on-screen images that LCD technology does.

Elsewhere, Samsung's Transparent Display uses Real Sense 3d-rotatable viewing systems, with full HD video playback.

These displays could be used to show adverts, public and transport information or be used in hotels and shops.

Intel Real Sense features a front-facing camera that captures subtle facial movements, precisely tracks widely varying finger

and hand movements, and clearly distinguishes between backgrounds and foregrounds. In addition, the Intel technology includes a rear-facing camera that can accurately scan

and measure rooms and objects, and a snapshot camera that can alter a photo's background after a photo has been taken.'

#The full colour'skin screen'you can wear as clothing: Radical technology could let you alter your outfit instantly By Mark Prigg For Dailymail. com Published:

Researchers have unveiled the first fully flexible colour screen, and say it if so flexible it can be worn.

'All manmade displays-LCD, LED, CRT-are rigid, brittle and bulky. But you look at an octopus,

flexible thin-film reflective display. Chanda's research was inspired by nature, he said. Traditional displays like those on a mobile phone require a light source, filters and a glass plates.

But animals like chameleons, octopuses and squids are born with thin flexible, colour-changing displays that don't need a light source-their skin.'

'That was the motivation: Can we take some inspiration from biology and create a skin-like display?'

'The team is able to change the colour on an ultrathin nanostructured surface by applying voltage.

full-colour tunable display. The display is only about few microns thick, compared to a 100-micron-thick human hair.

Such an ultrathin display can be applied to flexible materials like plastics and synthetic fabrics. The research has major implications for existing electronics like televisions,

computers and mobile devices that have considered displays thin by today's standards but monstrously bulky in comparison.

But the potentially bigger impact could be whole new categories of displays that have never been thought of.'

'Your camouflage, your clothing, your fashion items-all of that could change, 'Chanda said.''Why would I need 50 shirts in my closet

Computer learns to create computer games by watching videos of Super Mario Brothers Researchers have created a system that can automatically design new levels of a computer game by simply watching other people play on Youtube or Twitch.

The computer software was able to create its own levels for Nintendo's Super Mario Brothers after analysing Youtube footage of the game.

The Georgia Institute of technology system focuses on the gaming terrain (not the playable character) and the positioning between elements on-screen be it pipes

'and you can think of the'smart harness'as a platform for two-way computer-mediated communication between dogs and handlers,'

The smart harness is equipped a computer backpack that fits comfortably on a dog's back.

One of the project's prototypes features a twin battery back on both sides of the dog, a mounted webcam,

and a wireless USB adapter, among other technologies. Using a tablet to send signals to the harness and to the dog,

the researchers are able to see how the dog reacts and interprets the modes of communication.

One member of the team used a tablet to prompt the vibration on the side of the dog's body which he wanted the dog to turn.

'We're using this technology to ask some very fundamental questions about the nature of the way that animals can perceive computer-mediated communications

and the way they can interact with computers in order to send digital signals across wireless communication links to handlers,

and transmit that data to a tablet. This allows researchers and dog handlers to monitor the dog's physical well-being.'

The technology also includes physiological sensors that monitor things like heart rate and body temperature. The sensors not only track a dog's physical well-being,

These technologies form the core of the platform but it can be customized with additional devices depending on the specific application.'

#Google throws nearly a billion Android users under the bus refuses to patch OS vulnerability When it comes to providing security updates for previous products,

Some, like Microsoft, tend to provide security updates long after theye stopped selling an operating system (Microsoft only stopped providing WINDOWS XP support last year.

refusing to patch bugs in Android 4. 3 or prior, even when those bugs could expose critical vulnerabilities on nearly a billion devices.

The flaws in this case affect Android 4. 1 to 4. 3, aka Jelly bean, which began shipping in mid-2012

and was the primary version of Android through late 2013, or roughly 14 months ago.

Up until quite recently, Google has patched aggressively problems in Android Webview rendering engine. Before Kitkat (Android 4. 4

all versions of Android used the version of Webview found within the Android Browser for rendering HTML webpages.

With Kitkat and Lollipop, Google updated the operating system to use a Webview plugin derived from its Chromium project.

When Security firm Rapid7 discovered a new exploit in the Android Browser version of Webview,

it contacted Google to inform the company that Android 4. 3 and below were vulnerable.

Google response and policy change are raising major eyebrows. Specifically, the company states that: If the affected version of Webview is before 4. 4,

and Motorola to provide you with an updated version of our operating system. This is hilariously impossible.

It would never fly in the PC WORLD imagine Microsoft telling customers orry, you have to make HP, Dell,

and Lenovo provide you with a free update for our operating system. The disparity is even larger

a computer running a previous version of Windows can be upgraded by the end user to run the next version.

The average phone or tablet buyer has no way to upgrade their operating system unless the carrier provides an OTA update,

and fragmentation has been a major problem in Android ecosystem over the years but there a difference between acknowledging the difficulty of maintaining security updates for the entirety of one user base

Pushing OEMS off open-source Android One obvious reason for Google to stop fixing Android Browser problems is that the company is aggressively moving to get OEMS to stop using Android open-source features

and getting rid of the Android Browser is a key facet of moving away from an Android that actually maintained and useful.

No, Google isn killing Android it just ensuring that the only parts of the program that get feature updates, capability improvements,

while paying lip service to the idea of open source. By throwing all of the responsibility for security updates back on carriers and security researchers,

It a trick worthy of Microsoft in the Bad Old Days, and it particularly funny to see the company doing this,

given that it threw Microsoft under the bus in December when it published the full details of a security flaw two days before Redmond patched it,

on the grounds that the desktop and laptop OS company wasn moving fast enough S
