#Google#s Project Ara update: New partners inductive data transfer and cutting-edge battery tech Ever since Google Project Ara debuted,
consumers have been interested in the possibility of a customized smartphone with hot-swappable modules and varying functionality that can be changed on the fly depending on the user needs.
Today, Google gave a major update on where the program is and where it headed through 2015.
Right now, Google is focused on building what it calls the Spiral 2 device, a new version of the hardware that will include multiple modules, greater flexibility,
the option to swap out the battery while the device is in low power mode, and the opportunity to use multiple antennas for better signal sourcing and multiple carrier support.
Google is reportedly working on induction signaling, with a 150-micron gap between components that will prevent the wear and tear that comes with repetitive switching back and forth.
Project Ara roadmap Google also laid out the Project Ara longer-term roadmap through 2015,
Spiral 3 will add the Rockchip reference design, an LTE 4g modem, an Android release, packaging
Google also talked up the concept of giving new and unusual battery designs a forum to experiment with Project Ara there are battery technologies that offer substantial improvements over conventional lithium polymer architectures
but either cost too much for typical inclusion into smartphones or have specialized other requirements. Some of these could be met within the Project Ara modular concept,
and Google wants to see the platform used for prototyping and market testing. Longer term, the goal is to create an initial pool of some 20-30 modules,
Google didn go into detail on what a ollution sensormight be, but it possible to include a carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
and other types of smoke detector modules in a smartphone platform. A Project Ara device could conceivably include multiple modules to scan for various types of atmospheric contaminants
Google has stressed the goal of creating an entire ecosystem around this concept rather than simply throwing it to the consumer-wolves,
and hobbyists who want the ability to customize a phone for particularly long battery life or with specialized sensors.
if the phone can be equipped with a sufficiently flexible LTE radio to allow for a truly global device.
Google intends to move forwards with market availability in the 2016 timeframe 0

#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,
Others, like Google and Apple, have pursued tighter timelines for security updates. Google is now doubling down on that schedule,
refusing to patch bugs in Android 4. 3 or prior, even when those bugs could expose critical vulnerabilities on nearly a billion devices.
Up until quite recently, Google has patched aggressively problems in Android Webview rendering engine. Before Kitkat (Android 4. 4
With Kitkat and Lollipop, Google updated the operating system to use a Webview plugin derived from its Chromium project.
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,
Google will onsiderthe patch to see if it resolves the problem. If they don, Google now says the only thing it can do is inform various OEMS of the problem.
What Google is doing in essence, is telling its user community orry, you have to tell Samsung, LG,
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,
The average phone or tablet buyer has no way to upgrade their operating system unless the carrier provides an OTA update,
and two-year upgrade cycles means that plenty of people are going to be stuck on broken devices with known exploits that Google isn going to fix.
Granted, the fact that Google fixes an exploit doesn mean that carriers will deploy it,
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 to replace them with features licensed directly from Google. Ars Technica has done an extensive write-up on this trend here,
No, Google isn killing Android it just ensuring that the only parts of the program that get feature updates, capability improvements,
and Samsung continued interest in Tizen are both the result of Google push to embed itself into the center of mobile business
Google is telling OEMS that they can either agree to its licensing terms and fall in line,

#Google calls on FCC to mandate line-sharing pits itself directly against Comcast and other ISPS In the ongoing battle between net neutrality advocates and the ISPS,
Now, Google has weighed in on the issue, reminding the FCC that reclassifying companies like Comcast would serve the public interest and advance the deployment of high speed Internet.
What common carrier classification does and does not Do it may be helpful at this point to revisit
in the case of the proposed T-Mobile/AT&T merger, 4G LTE networks), is that it costs too much to be economically viable.
AT&T has made and broken repeated promises about network rollouts, often citing cost (Ars Technica has a summary of the shenanigans there over the years).
Verizon stopped deploying Fios citing construction costs and the difficulty of ramping the service in new markets.
Two years ago, an excellent piece by Bruce Kushnik skewered these claims by showing that Verizon total construction costs were dropping year-by-year,
In Verizon case it actively turned to tearing them out. This kind of bait -and-switch is what makes complaints that regulation represents unfair intrusion into the free market so damned egregious.
For decades, the telecommunications industry has gone collectively running to Congress, crying about the need for a greater slice of the tax revenue and service fee pie,
Google argument essentially rests on the idea that as a would-be competitor itself, access to these preexisting networks would allow it to deliver substantially better rates and lower prices to its customers.

Ratan Tata said on Friday, lauding the government Digital India programme. delighted that the Prime minister has decided to give so much preference
Tata said in Mumbai at the launch of an initiative to deepen Internet usage among rural women.
has tied up with Google and Intel to help women access the Internet in large numbers under this initiative. nternet will help educate India,
will give access to livelihood to many women who do not have a formal livelihood,
Reminiscing how people were forced to wait for up to 10 years to get a phone connection during his childhood
Tata said deeper penetration of the phone has empowered the entire population now. Benefits in terms of finding one identity, self-respect and access to knowledge because of the phone are said nbelievable he.
Executives from Google said even though growth in women users is outpacing that of men in urban areas,
women account for only a tenth of the total rural Internet users. Under the Internet Saathi programme, 1, 000 specially designed bicycles having connected devices will give villagers an experience of Internet over a period of four to six months.
The initiative aims to cover 4 500 villages over the next 18 months, starting with Gujarat, Rajasthan and Jharkhand and targets to reach out to about 500,000 women a
#New computerised learning system can spot irony and sarcasm in text messages and emails A new computerised learning system spots emotional sentiments, such as sarcasm and irony,
in text messages and emails and it could even detect content that suggests suicidal ideations.
Eden Saig, a computer science student at the Technion-Israel Institute of technology in Israel, developed the computerised learning system
In text and email messages, those nuances are lost and writers who want to signify sarcasm, sympathy or doubt have taken to using images,
Recently, pages intended to be humourous on social networks such as Facebook and Twitter were titled uperior and condescending people,
or rdinary and sensible people. uch pages are very popular in Israel, said Saig, and users are invited to submit suggestions for phrases that can be labelled as tereotypical sayings, for that particular page.
The method he developed enables the system to detect future patterns on any social network. Since the content in these sections was colloquial, everyday language,
or slang words and phrases in text. aig applied achine-Learningalgorithms to the content on these pages and used the results to automatically identify stereotypical behaviours found every day in social network communication.
The quantification was carried out by examining 5, 000 posts on social media pages and, through statistical analysis, gearing a learning system to recognise content structure that could be identified as condescending or slang.
#Cooler computers, smartphones using graphene film Almost half of the total energy used in running a computer goes in cooling it down.
#Wireless power transfer now lets you charge mobile phones from a distance Now, you won have to look for a socket to charge your phone or a laptop.
Researchers have developed a wireless power transfer (WPT) technology that can charge mobile phones from a distance. The WPT technology developed by researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) works just as Wi-fi works for Internet connections.
It allows mobile devices to be charged at any location and in any direction, even if the devices are away from the power source.
With this technology your device will automatically get charged without being tethered to a charger if you are designated in the area where the charging is available,
For example, the Samsung galaxy S6 could only be charged wirelessly in a fixed position, having one degree of freedom. ur transmitter system is safe for humans and compatible with other electronic devices.

#Amazon Patents A System That Unlocks Your Smartphone With Your Ear There are several ways that you can unlock a smartphone,
if you could unlock your smartphone with ear recognition software? Amazon thinks so. Amazon has received a patent on June 9th that is titled ar recognition as device input.
I doubt that Amazon would require users to unlock their smartphones to answer phone calls if this technology is implemented
I believe that the primary benefits for having an ear scanner is to simply unlock the smartphone for uses other than answering phone calls.
And then an adult scans his or her ear with the same tablet to quickly pull up their stocks, weather, news and social media apps.
Amazon is not the only company that has come up with a hands-free way to unlock a smartphone.
