Bionic Hearing with New Smart Earbuds

Get Bionic Hearing with New Smart Earbuds

Smart Earbuds

If you've ever been on a crowded bus and found yourself stuck between a loud conversation on one side and obnoxiously loud music on the other, the idea of being able to cancel out that background noise probably sounds like bliss. Now, new earbuds can not only help boost your hearing and cancel out pesky noise, but also serve as wireless earphones for making phone calls and listening to music hands-free.

Wearable devices such as fitness trackers and smartwatches have become popular accessories, and recently, companies have started developing "hearables" — earbuds that electronically control how a person hears the world.
The IQbuds from Nuheara in San Francisco can use Bluetooth to wirelessly connect to a smartphone. As such, these earbuds can act like wireless earpieces, so you can listen to music, podcasts or audiobooks in stereo; make hands-free phone calls; and engage with Siri and other voice-enabled apps. Users can also answer phone calls and start or stop audio with a simple tap of the earbuds.

McAfee confirms he'll head cyber security company

SAN FRANCISCO — Shares of a small tech firm soared 34% on news John McAfee, the computer antivirus legend and Libertarian party presidential candidate who once spent several months on the run fearing assassins, has been proposed as its CEO. McAfee confirmed the appointment in a phone interview with USA TODAY on Monday. MGT Capital Investments, a Harrison, N.Y.-based tech firm with investments in fantasy sports and mobile games, will be rebranded as John McAfee Global Technologies, according to a release. The company's (MGT) stock jumped to $0.49 in trading Monday. McAfee, in an interview, said the company should be renamed soon after approval from MGT's board of directors. "The company's new focus will be on security and privacy," he said. The new company's first product will be D-Vasive, an anti-spyware product for mobile devices, McAfee said. "It locks down a device's microphone, camera, Blue Tooth," he said. "What shocked me most about FBI Director (James Comey's) testimony (before Congress in February) was that he put tape over his (smartphone) camera lens to protect it."
"D-Vasive offers a powerful tool for protection from the proliferation of invasive apps by consumer products companies, social networks, financial institutions and others," MGT said in a statement. "These invasive apps can secretly turn on a phone's microphone and camera, as well as monitor geographic movements and access contacts." McAfee founded McAfee Associates in 1987. The company was purchased by Intel in 2010 for $7.7 billion, He has also announced he wants to be the Libertarian Party presidential candidate in this year's election. "Things are going extremely well," he said. Though a reluctant campaigner — "I'm not a hand shaker or a baby kisser," he said — McAfee is "confident" he'll get the nomination when the Libertarian Party holds its national convention in Orlando on May 29.

Phone Holographic Glasses-Free 3D

Your Next Phone Might Have a Holographic Glasses-Free 3D Display

Holographic phone

Holograms are still mostly science-fiction fodder, but researchers at Queen’s University’s Human Media Lab have developed a prototype smartphone that uses holographic technology to display dynamic 3D images without the need for head tracking or annoying glasses. So how is this possible when 3D TVs and movie theaters still require you to wear shutter or polarized glasses, and Nintendo’s 3DS relies on a front-facing camera to track the position of the user’s head and face? It all comes down to a clever trick with the HoloFlex phone’s unique display.
The device starts with a 1920 x 1080 resolution OLED touchscreen display, but images are displayed as an array of 12-pixel wide circles. When viewed through a special 3D-printed overlay that’s covered in 16,000 tiny fisheye lenses, those images appear to pop-off the screen. And as the phone is angled and moved around, 3D objects can be viewed from almost any angle. The downside is that the images end up having a relatively poor resolution of just 160x104 pixels, but as screen resolutions and manufacturing technologies improve, eventually that special lens-covered overlay will be invisible to the naked eye.
But 3D images aren’t the HoloFlex phone’s only party trick. The OLED display it uses is completely flexible, allowing the phone to be bent and warped, introducing an additional element of interaction. Besides tapping the screen, and other touch gestures, users could play games like Angry Birds by physically bending the phone back to draw back the bird-launching slingshot. It also means if you were to forget about the HoloFlex in your back pocket when you sat done, there’s little risk of finding a shattered screen when you get back up.

Cheap 'Apple Watch' copies on sale

Cheap 'Apple Watch' copies on sale via Alibaba site

Smartwatches that mirror the look of the Apple Watch's hardware and software are being advertised on China's most popular online shopping service.

Alibaba's Taobao site lists devices branded the AW08 and the iWatch.
They both feature "digital crown" dials on their sides, similar-styled straps and identical user interface graphics to Apple's forthcoming wearable.
However, their listings reveal they run on Google's Android platform rather than Apple's Watch OS.
Other giveaways that the watches are not the iPhone's official "companion" include:
They are being offered for about 250 yuan ($40; £26.50) - a fraction of the 2,588 yuan that Apple will charge for its smartwatch in China when it goes on sale next month
They do not feature the same heart-monitoring sensors on their rear - although this is not always made clear
They boast longer battery life

This model - sold on Taobao - features Apple graphics on its screen, but makes clear in its text it is not the official Apple Watch

Taboao acts as a showcase for third-party sellers - much like eBay and Amazon's Marketplace service - and some vendors have taken pains to make clear that the devices they are selling are not Apple's own technology.
One listing, which was highlighted by the Financial Times, even used the slogan: "Knockoff Apple watches have hit the market!"
Taobao's owner said it did, however, remove deceptive ads.
"Alibaba Group is dedicated to the fight against counterfeits," a spokeswoman for the company told the BBC.
"We work closely with our government partners, brands and industry associations to tackle this issue at its source.
"We also utilise technology like data mining and big data to scrub our platforms of counterfeits."

5 Surprising Sun-Powered Gadgets

Sun Table
 If you're on the lookout for some eco-friendly patio furniture, try the Sun Table—a fully functional table with a surface made of solar cells that capture energy from sunlight and store it within the cells. To use the stored solar energy, simply pop off the DC cover and plug in your laptop, smartphone, or other gadget. The table is weather-resistant and can charge even in partial shade. It can hold enough juice for about 4 hours of use.

Google Chromecast

Google Chromecast: All Your Screens Are Belong to Us

With Chromecast, the followup to its disappointing Google TV, Google has decided that less is more. The diminutive dongle effortlessly streams digital content from your desktop and mobile devices to your HDTV, bringing hardcore TV junkies one step closer to cutting the cable.
  Television has been having a renaissance over the past decade, attracting some of the top writing and acting talent. But high costs of production and broadcasting rights (we're looking at you, sports) have also led to higher cable bills, leading many TV junkies to cut the cable and turn to the Internet for their nightly fix. The only problem is that while watching TV on your phone, tablet, or laptop is great if you're commuting to work or walking on the treadmill, it's just not TV. The small screen can't match that 40-inch HD screen and surround-sound system sitting in your living room. Enter Chromecast, Google's diminutive $35 dongle that plugs into any HDMI port and packs an impressive api (application programming interface) that lets you stream content directly to your TV set. Setting up the device is a relatively straightforward and painless process. Simply find a free HDMI port on the back of your HDTV and plug in Chromecast. Google even included an HDMI extender in the package if the port placement on your particular set is a tight fit—if you've got it mounted on a wall, for instance. If your HDTV is HDMI 1.4, then the Chromecast can supposedly draw power directly from the port itself. However, conflicting reports have been popping up online since the device launched last week. Because my set is HDMI 1.3, I had to use the included micro USB cord and AC adapter to plug Chromecast into a wall outlet. Once the device is powered up, you can pair it with the Chromecast app that you've downloaded onto your Android smartphone or new Nexus 7 tablet, which you will use to locate Chromecast and then add it to your local Wi-Fi network. And, really, that's it. Now that your Chromecast is on your home network, you can stream content to your TV. Unlike other streaming solutions (Apple's AirPlay quickly comes to mind), Chromecast relies on a built-in casting feature to send content directly to the device over your Wi-Fi network rather than streaming it directly from your phone or tablet. What this means is, once you tell Chromecast what you want to watch, your mobile device is then freed up, allowing you to multitask. For example, if you used your iPhone to stream a video to your TV over Airplay, you couldn't move to a different app without losing the video, because the screen is simply mirroring your phone's screen. With Chromecast, you could play a movie from Netflix and check your email at the same time—the video will continue to play on the TV. Or, while you're streaming a hilarious YouTube video for everyone, use the Chromecast app to put together a playlist of related videos that will stream one after another. Another cool thing about Chromecast is that even though there isn't an iOS app at the moment, that doesn't prevent iPhone and iPad users from getting in on the fun. Because Chromecast lives on your personal network, any additional devices that share that network can also stream to the device through casting partners. The launch partners were obvious and include Netflix, YouTube, and Google Play, but with the software development kit available prior to launch and a slew of additional content providers vocally supportive of the new product, including Vimeo, Hulu, Redbox, and HBO Go, the list is certain to grow over the next few months. For laptop and desktop users, Google has included a clever feature that allows them to broadcast the content from their Chrome browser right to their television. This opens up an entire world of possibilities for additional content, including all the major networks, Amazon Instant Video, Plex, MLB.TV, and more. Basically, if you can watch it on your computer, then you can watch it on your TV, and since you're only broadcasting one tab, you can still multitask. Additionally, since Chrome is an HTML5 browser, you can drag and drop local media from your personal library and stream it directly to your television. In my brief time with the device, Chromecast flawlessly streamed MP4s and AVIs, though, depending upon how the video was encoded, the sound didn't always play with the video. Streaming music to your TV via Chromecast works, too, with options ranging from the Google Music Player on your mobile device to services such as Pandora, Spotify, Rdio, Slacker, Songza, and so much more. And if you want to view pictures or play a slideshow from your computer, a dropdown in the Chrome browser casting feature will allow you to use an experimental feature and cast your whole screen. However, this experimental feature is just that. It won't stream any sound from your computer, and it doesn't always work as well as you would like it to. I predict big things for this little device, and clearly I'm not alone. Google's Chromecast sold out before it was even made available, and, according to Google's site, it is backordered for weeks to come. Unless you pulled the trigger sight unseen, you're going to be waiting a month for yours. With a number of new apps already being announced for the near future—including one that plays photos directly from your mobile device, and another that will stream media files stored on Dropbox—as well as a stampede of new content providers jumping on the bandwagon, this might be the best $35 you ever spend.
