#Paddle an incredible shapeshifting smartphone You probably carry around a few gadgets. You probably have your smartphone, maybe a tablet or e reader.
You may also have a fitness band or even a second smartphone. That a lot of stuff to carry.

#Beating battery drain Stream video on your smartphone or use its GPS for an hour or two and you ll probably see the battery drain significantly.
As data rates climb and smartphones adopt more power-hungry features battery life has become a concern.
The primary culprit in smartphone battery drain is an inefficient power amplifier a component that is designed to push the radio signal out through the phones antennas.
Prepared to send sizeable chunks of data at any given time the amplifiers stay at maximum voltage eating away power more than any other smartphone component and about 75 percent of electricity consumption in base stations#and wasting
This means smartphone batteries lose longevity and base stations waste energy and lose money. But Eta Devices has developed a chip (for smartphones)
and a shoebox-size module (for base stations) based on nearly a decade of MIT research to essentially switch gears to adjust voltage supply to power amplifiers as needed cutting the waste.
Eta Devices has entered also conversations with major manufacturers of LTE-enabled smartphones to incorporate their chips by the end of next year.
Dawson says this could potentially double current smartphone battery life. Besides battery life Dawson adds there are many ways the telecommunications industry can take advantage of improved efficiency.
At the time I was suffering as everyone else was from my iphone running out of battery at lunchtime Astrom says.

without impacting smartphone readout or requiring a complete redesign of the system. Another advantage to these particles is that they can be read without an expensive decoder like those required by most other anti-counterfeiting technologies.
Using a smartphone camera equipped with a lens offering twentyfold magnification anyone could image the particles after shining near-infrared light on them with a laser pointer.
The researchers are also working on a smartphone app that would further process the images and reveal the exact composition of the particles.
