iPad incorporate a second display

 

According to the drawings of a patent revealed recently, Apple would create a cover for the iPhone that would make the tablet with a second touch screen, plus it would be flexible. It seems that this product is in general much improved performance of the apple tablet.
The new roof, which is quite similar to today's Smart Case, is the same size as the iPad. What is unclear is what percentage of the deck would occupy the second screen, but more likely the deal mostly. This second display could have several functions, including being a control interface, a notification center, a space for drawing or just an additional area located more icons, not forgetting of course that could be used as a keyboard, like the Touch cover Cover that Microsoft plans to release its tablet Surface.
Will it become reality this design? Time will tell.

Today there are all kinds of 3D printers. 3D printers are of different colors, there are some that are cheaper, some are more expensive, are also those that are larger and some that are slightly smaller.

New type of radar can see through walls

 

At University College London (part of the University of London), designed a radar capable of identifying changes in frequency, which gives you the ability to detect objects and people moving across a wall. Karl Woodbridge and Kevin Chetty have built a prototype of the radar which is the size of a suitcase. Under the Radar is a radio wave receiver with two antennas and a signal processing unit. Investigators say they were able to use the device to determine location, speed and direction of a person.
The most interesting thing is that the technology of radar also allows you to capture changes in frequency through a brick wall up to 30 centimeters wide and it can not be detected because it does not emit any type of wave, only receive. Is expected to be completed when the device can be used by the military and the police.
There is a small drawback with the radar and it is needed that the other side wall has a wave-emitting source, such as, for example, a WiFi router (as seen in the figure).
