From Google glass competitors, to contact lenses with built-in displays, this tech is coming in part enabled by the wide adoption of smartphones.

Smartphone repair kit? As well as car companies using the technology internally to help engineers and mechanics, it is increasingly being made available to the rest of us.

The driver would simply point their smartphone camera in the general direction of the problem. t scans the engine,

With Google glass and other augmented reality devices, the route information we receive on our smartphones will be displayed in the urban environment, in real time.

in a similar way to a new smartphone owner might be. Trip information is collected by the vehicle's computer,

New smartphones and tablets are released barely months after their previous versions, and the hardware and software quickly become incompatible.

For those who believe that the age of tablets, smartphones, Google glass and the loudhas heralded the demise of desktop PCS,

Samsung Electronics Co. has launched finally a smartphone that runs on its own Tizen operating system, a landmark move that may mark the beginning of the end of its dependence on Google Inc. Android system.

The company has pared the offering down to a no-frills product aimed at first-time smartphone buyers at the bottom end of the market,

still less Apple ios. Those two systems operate 19 out of every 20 smartphones worldwide.

Samsung was deposed last year by Xiaomi as the largest smartphone maker in China. Tizen is already in use in Samsung smartwatches and cameras and, most recently, its TVS.

even in the world third biggest market for smartphones, Samsung can achieve enough scale for Tizen to persuade skeptical developers that making apps for it is worth their while.

#App analyzes your voice for mood swings Researchers are testing a smartphone app that monitors your mood by listening for changes in your voice.

#Control your smartphone with pinchy fingers ETH Zurich Posted by Peter Ruegg-ETH Zurich on October 9 2014a new app uses a smartphone s built-in camera to detect hand gestures that resemble sign language.

however they re for controlling the smartphone. Holding the phone in one hand a user can use the other to move an index finger to the left sometimes to the right.

The program uses the smartphone s built-in camera to register its environment. It does not evaluate depth or color.

and is thus ideal for smartphones. He believes the application is the first of its kind that can run on a smartphone.

The app s minimal processing footprint means it could also run on smart watches or in augmented-reality glasses like the Apple Watch or Google glass.

Hilliges is convinced that this new way of operating smartphones greatly increases the range of interactivity.

so that users can operate their smartphone with very little effort. But will smartphone users want to adapt to this new style of interaction?

Hilliges is confident they will. Gesture control will not replace touchscreen control but supplement it. eople got used to operating computer games with their movements. ouchscreens Hilliges reminds us also required a very long adjustment period before making a big impact in consumers lives.

#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.

A few major smartphone manufacturers are now using envelope tracking (ET) which adjusts voltage to power amplifiers on the fly.
