The 2012 has been a busy year for NASA. Curiosity, the rover sent to Mars, has proved very successful. So successful in fact that NASA has plans to send a new Curiosity to Mars in 2020.
The 2020 mission to Mars will have the same objectives as the current-testing of samples of Martian soil.
Obviously the difference between the current and future Curiosity is 8
years of technological advancement, which will develop more advanced
tools. Of course we also continue the search for life on Mars, and this time seems to focus a little more on this topic.
The project has been awarded $ 1,500 million as funds, which is $ 1
billion less than it had the original project, but not surprising since
much of the project's Curiosity current can be reused, which obviously
reduces costs.
After that the next step is to send humans in 2030.
Yes, is not new, but until now is something that has not been confirmed and the fact that Google Android 4.2 as named Jelly Bean again made the Key Lime Pie rumors disappear at times.
And at times because we have re-emerged as the image you see here above
shows the different versions of Android, each eating dessert gives it
its name. But enough pictures to actually say the name of the new version of Android will be Key Lime Pie? It depends where you come from that image.
In this case, the image was uploaded to the network by an employee of
Google, which undoubtedly increases the chances of actually Android 4.3
or 5.0, depending on the future version, is called Key Lime Pie.
Time will tell the rest.
No doubt that we love to see high-end smartphones such as the iPhone, the Galaxy and the like, but we must not forget that there is also a market for this and is below that of mobile low-end that are typically designed to sectors with lower economic level. One of the best low-end smartphones we've seen is the Nokia Lumia 620, which incidentally only costs $ 250 without a contract.
This terminal, which runs the new Windows Phone 8, is a compact phone that features a polycarbonate shell and comes in several different colors, all very bright. At 8GB of memory with the device we can add some extra using a microSD card.
As might be expected, the Lumia 620 does not have a hardware revolutionary.
Its processor is a 1GHz dual-core, has a 3.8 inch screen with
resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and its main camera is 5 megapixels.
The Nokia Lumia 620 is coming to Asia in January and then the Middle East will expand to reach European markets.
Today, as we know, there are eye scanners that are used to open high security doors, as is often seen in movies.
Domestically, particularly in smartphones, passwords are used, but
there is an easier, safer and faster than using a password, and that is
to use our eyes.
EyeVerify Kansas is a company with a powerful software in your hands.
The same can examine some of the white veins of both eyes that would be
something like a "fingerprint eye" and if the user is using the smartphone is right, then we control the smartphone or any account that need access, as appropriate. The company says that this method is as effective as a fingerprint scan or iris.
Toby Rush, CEO and founder of EyeVerify, you see many uses for this software. Through our mobile, the app could be used to gain access to our bank account, our medical records, etc..
For now, the software uses the back camera of the smartphone, but the
idea is that you obviously use the front, but at the same not be
powerful enough for most terminals, is not feasible in this case which
requires high resolution.
As many know, every year Google hosts a conference for developers where obvious advantage to present a new version of Android, a new software , hardware on some occasions, etc..
In 2013, the conference I/O of the company will be held from 15 to 17 May at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, which hosted the 2012 if memory serves me. It also announced that tickets will go on sale early next year.
This year, as we know, Google announced three important stuff at the
conference I / O: Android 4.1, the Nexus Nexus 7 and Q, as well as a
demonstration of the Google Glass. Obviously that is likely to be announced next year a new version of Android and for sure we will also see some more surprise.
The conferences I / O are extremely popular among developers and tickets for the same exhausted within minutes usually.
Note that prices are not cheap, but it is possible to get hold of any
Google product once inside, and in fact last year many people went home
with a new smartphone Nexus a Nexus tablet 7, a Nexus Chromebox Q or, in some cases several of these.
We hope that the date offered for sale tickets be announced soon.
