Adrenaline is a Crucial SSD cache to act as your hard drive
by admin on Jan.12, 2012, under electronics, hardware
Crucial has been to work and has presented a product that many expected to see in the market for a while. From the hardware point of view of its new Crucial Adrenaline is only an SSD of the same make, model m4, but with a different sticker. The vital difference is special software included and whose installation is necessary for the proper functioning of the device.
This software allows the Adrenaline acts as a cache of other hard drives, keeping in memory the most frequently used files at certain times. According to Crucial, this program is completely transparent and automatic and requires the user’s attention at any time. Adrenaline Connect, install the program and go.
The first model of adrenaline Crucial will sell will with a capacity of 50 GB, tiny to serve as a single storage device but enough to be the cache of a traditional hard disk will be contained in the operating system and all the applications. It will be sold along with support for 3.5-inch bays (it is designed for desktop computers, of course) for a price still unknown. The manufacturer confirmed that it has to start shipping during the first quarter of 2012.
A good idea that it was clear that ending coming. I doubt the final solution, since it uses an SSD as a cache, such as buffer system, it aims for future medium to long term when the flash memory has reduced its selling prices. However it is clear that as far as SSDs become cheaper seems a good option, midway between the fastest and the slowest. Do you think it will work?
Renault R-Link, tablet multipurpose vehicles next year
by admin on Jan.06, 2012, under electronics news, hardware
The R-Link tablet will become a standard feature on Renault’s new ZOE and Clio models, and will be made an optional feature on all upcoming Renault vehicles in the near future.
Renault seems to have some healthy envy of the market for tablets because it has decided to create a similar device to its range of vehicles. R-Link is a 7-inch device with touch interface that the French marque will begin to integrate into their cars in 2012, and will offer the driver a “trip computer” very advanced which will control a large number of functions with both hands from the touch screen or via a steering wheel mounted control, such as by voice command, which is quite sensible since it is not too wise to look away from the road or hands off the wheel. Renault system that reminds the Life Touch Toyota introduced in October and can integrate a smartphone in the car to use all its functions.
In this respect, the Renault dash tablet seems much more complete, because although it can synchronize with a smartphone, features a fairly complete operating system itself, with access not only to basic functions such as multimedia entertainment, GPS navigation through TomTom HD Traffic or call functions, but also linked with the computer functions of the vehicle that will provide detailed information on most of the details of the progress and operation of the vehicle, such as fuel and electricity, adding even network access to benefit various cloud services such as storage, “social life” or downloading of applications, there is always the possibility of extending the functions of the device.
Renault is looking for developers to create rich catalog of applications before it begins to integrate its range of vehicles, at which time it is expected that at least 50 different apps for download. To begin, the next year the brand R-Link add this as an option to its 2012 Clio models and the new Zoe, Renault’s commitment to electric cars, but has not yet specified what will be its price. Another detail is still unknown whether the “tablet” is removable and may be used outside the vehicle, or be fully integrated into the dashboard, which although desirable, does not seem too likely.
So Android 4.0 will run on the Archos G9 ICS in early 2012
by admin on Dec.31, 2011, under electronics, hardware
Now we know why there was a delay of Archos tablets until early 2012, they were saving the best for last and so surprised how well it works with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich in a generation Tablets Archos G9.
In a video posted a few hours ago you can see that Archos tablets G9 along very well with the latest version of Android, but the truth Archos did not expect so soon. As discussed from the company, the tablets come in early 2012 with Android 4.0 pre-installed and function as well as we can see in the video, the more we will be considering one.
Despite being a preliminary sample, the performance of the system is incredibly fast, smooth response and interface responds perfectly compared to previous versions of what we can easily deduce that the software upgrade hardware in combination with a can offer decent results rather than interesting. With this announcement Archos brand guideline, only expected to remain well and are of the first manufacturers to make available to purchase products with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
The Archos models offer screens are represented by 8 and 10 “, both powered by an OMAP 4 processor 1.5GHz dual core and both SSD storage on hard disk. The version that already has its Archos Android tablet is 4.0.1, OTA update Google released some after the official presentation of the operating system, which tells me that updates with the manufacturer at least, are a day.
I must say that Archos products have greatly improved in its early versions, the software did not even include the Android Market, formed a screen resolution that left much to be desired and poor hardware, but these new versions (despite not having the best design the world) did show that the company wants and gets better with new releases. Now the price is still low compared to tablets with similar specifications. The Archos G9 range from $ 329 to $ 469, all depend on the size, type and storage capacity.
Super Talent TeraNova to 480GB of storage solid blazing speeds
by admin on Dec.23, 2011, under electronics news, hardware
The Californian manufacturer of solid storage units Super Talent has released its new product, the SSD TeraNova, a unit capable of delivering over 500MB / s sequential transfer rates, joining the club of ultra-fast charging unit. The new Super Talent TeraNova is sold in different versions up to 480GB of capacity, and it is paired with a SandForce controller 2200, which is the main responsible for the performance of the device. Increased speed puts it in the premium segment within SSDs for home users, and is perfect for any laptop or desktop – with adapter 2.5 to 3.5 inches – high performance.
This new solid storage device can be found in versions of 64, 120, 240 and 480GB so that it covers most types of users, from which only need a boot disk where to install your operating system such as that bases all of its solid storage equipment to maximize performance. These SSDs are made with MLC NAND Flash, and have a reliability between failures of more than 2 million hours, with a 2 year limited warranty. While sequential read rates remain unchanged at 540MB / s maximum on all models is in the write speed where the different versions have their main difference – apart from the ability, of course – the basic unit is able to 64GB rates up to 490MB developing / s, a figure that rises to 510MB / s 120GB model, and reaches its maximum in the most balanced of all, TeraNova 240GB, which can read and write files sequentially with speeds 540/520MB/s respectively. Interestingly, the model with more storage (480GB) is also suffering a small handicap when writing data, and its poor performance in sequential write speed up to 480MB / s maximum extent, which is not bad but possibly, and to the excessive price can reach as large an SSD, would make most consumers opt for the one below it.
Installing an SSD as the only means of storage of a computer not only improves overall system performance, which can access both the swap file (Swap) and boot files much faster, but it is a great advantage when intensive applications using storage usage, such as processing and editing of audio and video, and even some heavy editing suites image.
The new Super Talent TeraNova today begin to distribute the commercial chain in the United States in their versions of 60GB, 120GB, 240GB and 480 gigabytes, but strangely has not yet announced a retail price.
Apple defends Windows Kinect for patenting a motion capture system
by admin on Dec.09, 2011, under electronics, hardware
No one could predict that the success of Kinect would lead to Microsoft itself as a patron of the scene formalizing the development of applications with an SDK, let alone end up with a unique version of the computer hardware, with the intention of signing Redmond to create a motion capture system as a method of interacting with your computer. It seems curious that this technology has been with Apple, which is working on its own system of interaction through movements, or so suggests the latest patent application that the company has recently made official. The “Capture and display three-dimensional” (Three-dimensional imaging and display system) describes a method of introducing new orders or commands where the user “is optically detected in an image volume.”
The system would monitor and detect the user’s hands in three dimensional space in front of an Apple computer, and this could manipulate a series of virtual on-screen controls – or “virtual projects” – such as buttons, icons or boxes, which would supplement or completely replace to the traditional keyboard and mouse. The patent application, which is quite specific as to the operation of the interface and detailed with highly technical language, explain how the device calculate the coordinates of hand position with a single measurement system, although similar to that used Kinect with points of light and infrared camera. Apple’s vision of the virtual user interface is extremely complex and radically different from what until now has in its products, which denotes a certain concern for the success of the system from Microsoft, and also a change in the philosophy of the company, until now fairly orthodox in research of new technologies.
As observed in this large and cumbersome patent, Apple could change not only the method of introduction, if the user interface to fit the motion capture, saying goodbye to the traditional Finder. But not only be a visual change to use, the patent also details the use of other types of response, and auditory, to complement the motion capture, such as the use of a sound when turning a dial to control, or even a 3D virtual projection using a complex system of mirrors, which most likely will never become real.
What is Apple’s real intention? Personally I hope not, now or in the near future, a system so pompous and showy as comes out of Apple’s engineering labs, or anything, but I do see as might be the beginning of a transition leading to the company to devise new methods of interaction to fend off competition featuring Kinect in this case, and possibly in a relatively short period of time other similar devices that change the way they control our personal computers. Tactile interfaces such as tablets or advanced trackpads – Apple Magic Trackpad, Touchpad Logitech Wireless – have taken center stage in recent years and may now be time to more advanced technology like Kinect, coming to compatible market early next year with the intention of revolutionizing the relationship of users with their home computers.

New Vaio Z: The Sony strikes back

What is the biggest challenge for everyone when looking for a laptop? But its size, to enable easy transportation and, when necessary, can meet easily in demanding jobs. The Sony, takes this into account and therefore decided to offer a Sony VGP-BPS13/S battery laptop that can combine both. The new “Vaio Z”. This is an extremely sensitive machine with a weight-only-1200 grams, 13.1 inch screen and an impressive appearance.
Inside you will find a powerful Core i7 processor from Intel with 8 GB RAM. Of course running the Windows 7 and the battery can provide up to seven hours autonomy! Even these characteristics, can satisfy even highly demanding users. The big advantage however is the Power Media Dock . A regional unit which bears on it the AMD Radeon 6550M GPU with 1 GB RAM , ie, a video card strong enough for the data a Acer BTP-58A1 battery laptop. connected together via cable technology Lightpeak, which offers speeds similar to Thunderbolt.
The result is quite high speeds, the computer responds as if it has AMD Radeon 6550M GPU integrated. This, then, the VAIO Z is transformed from a highly utilitarian and with great autonomy in a Apple A1079 battery laptop computer that can be used for gaming and for some ‘heavy’ functions. The model is expected to make his first appearance on the market in next time. It is easily understood that such features could not be combined with a low price.
This is expected to start from 2600 € to Power Media Dock offered for sale separately from the Apple Macbook Pro battery laptop. Even so, we applaud Sony for the effort made by this model is to combine two classes into a Laptop. That is, essentially, to bridge a large gap and provide an easy answer for those looking for a laptop that combines the speed and power with portability. to look at the other side? The VAIO Z is the first attempt a This computer class. This certainly will be followed by new efforts the company will be offered at more affordable prices.

Leica Summilux 25mm DG

Panasonic introduces a new interchangeable lens, the Leica Summilux DG 25 mm / F1.4 ASPH. (50 mm 35 mm equivalent) for the Lumix G Micro System series. Leica Summilux 25mm. The new lens provides a very high brightness of F1.4 in a compact and lightweight body. This exceptional brightness makes beautiful soft-focus shots as possible, allowing photos and video even more impressive. Moreover, one need even in very low light no flash use. Summilux 25mm DG lens bears the name of the famous Canon nb-71 brand, a guarantee for a very good picture quality.
Leica Summilux DG 25 mm / F1.4 ASPH. features Panasonic’s Nano Surface Coating. This coating, nano-structure and an ultra-low refractive index, allows reflection is minimized for the entire visible light range. The picture taken with Canon bp-511 is thus very sharp and ghosting and flare are reduced. Leica Summilux 25mm DG lens, consisting of nine elements in seven groups and uses two aspherical lenses and an UHR index lens. The new UHR-index lens and molded aspherical lenses provide a unified view of the center to the edges.
The versatile focal length of 25 mm Leica Summilux lens particularly suitable for a variety of situations. Users of the Leica Summilux 25mm DG lens can decide the composition, perspective and aperture both for everyday snapshots, such as photos of Canon-lp-e5 and shots in dark environments, and for more creative shots with the beautiful soft focus is used.
When the Leica Summilux 25 mm/F1.4 DG ASPH. is mounted on a Panasonic Lumix G Micro System camera Canon lp-e6 is the contrast AF system to full advantage and provide high accuracy and high speed sure you can take pictures without worry. Contrast AF function of the Leica 25mm lens performs especially much better than phase-difference AF if a fast lens with a large aperture is used.
Seven blades give the aperture a rounded shape that creates a nice and smooth effect in parts which is out of focus when shooting at larger aperture settings. The durable metal mount of the Leica Summilux 25mm lens resists repeated switching of Casio np-100 lens.
