Apple - the largest consumer of microprocessors

Component suppliers have become one of the most generous sources of rumors about Apple in recent years. To some extent this is due to the fact that Apple itself has access to an increasing number of manufacturers of electronic components. Its products are becoming more difficult from a technical point of view. Accordingly grow and purchase of microprocessors, which will record in its volumes this year.

Analyst firm iSuppli published the results of another calculation of global procurement of components in 2013, according to which, Apple will once again become the world's largest consumer of electronic chips. In 2011 the company spent $ 23 billion on such "iron" - 50% more than its nearest competitors in the market. This year, this amount is expected to reach 27 billion, and next - $ 29 billion.

Second place in this ranking is Samsung, which spent $ 15 billion in microprocessors in 2011 and planning to give up another 16 billion dollars for the same purpose before the end of, 2012. However, Samsung is also the not only one of the largest consumers of electronic chips, but also one of the largest manufacturers. What percentage of purchases Apple played processors from Samsung - a big corporate secret.

Samsung Galaxy Note II: the flagship of the above

The range of Samsung smartphones are very wide, and to ensure that customers are not confused in the branded gadgets, the manufacturer must observe the principles of continuity. This means that every smartphone should have a certain name, their direct ancestors and descendants. Presumably, this happens with your smartphone Galaxy Note, and this fall it will be released the second version.
Samsung Galaxy Note II

These considerations are outlined in its new concept designer Bob Freking (Bob Freking), the work became known as Samsung Galaxy Note II. As you can guess by the designer and the execution of the general logic of the device is an extension introduced three weeks ago, the flagship Galaxy S III. Both phones are "brothers", but Galaxy Note II is a bit larger, and the design of its more stringent.


The author of the concept was not too lazy, and listed the main characteristics of the conceptual toys. There is something to be proud. Samsung Galaxy Note II features a proprietary Quad-Core Exynos clocked at 1.8 GHz. It is possible that by the time the official announcement of the smartphone Korean manufacturer will release an improved version of the chip based on ARM Cortex-A15. Diagonal screen Galaxy Note II is already 5.5 inches with a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels, if that makes sense in these dimensions.

Overview of Wi-Fi weights Withings Body Scale

After reviewing the baby monitor Withings Smart Baby Monitor, I really became interested in production of Withings. I had brought from the States Scale Body Scale, which the whole family immediately fell in love. They do not just show your weight, but the monitored weight changes through a remote server of the manufacturer.

At the very beginning to do three simple steps: setting connection Body Scale in the home Wi-Fi network and server to have a personal profile on the link and download start.withings.com free application WiScale [iTunes link], through which we will follow the changes of weight the whole family. All will take approximately five minutes.

In principle, the same can be done through a web interface, but it is not convenient.

The most fucking chip is that the scales themselves determine who they should at this point, and record the readings in the appropriate profile. Here's how it works: I ask a son to stand on the scales.

The measured mass is transmitted to the server, where among the family members searched for the most close to this value. It is seen that 14.6 kg were assigned to this son, as evidenced by the name that appears in the upper right corner.

Bright band in the status bar displays the normal limits of body fat is equal to the difference between your weight and muscle mass. In each they own. If you want to know the personal standards, visit the following link.

For example, at my height and age limits of normal muscle and fat mass as follows:

But that show the scale.

Typically, you can set yourself goals, then the screen will display the weight that you have left to throw to keep yourself in shape.

The package includes four AA-batteries, USB-cable for initial setup of the weights, pads on the legs (if you have a carpet at home) and a proprietary tape to measure growth.

The choice has a black and white.

I recommend to watch the video, which graphically displays all the features of this amazing device.

Pros:
- Ease;
- Functionality;
- Design;
- Support for iOS and Android;
- During the operation - not just a visit to thoughts about weight, but active steps to reduce it.

Cons:

SCOOTER: scooter budget for the big city

The man is a very active creature. He can not sit long in one place, people constantly move over large distances. This means that it needs vehicles. It is desirable that they be personal, because with the public transport still has to go on foot. The concept of an inexpensive two-wheeled vehicles introduced TCOOTER designer named Eric Hahn (Eric Han).

Origin of name a few confused: TCOOTER TWEEL combines words and Scooter (Scooter), whereas TWEEL, whereas TWEEL derived from the Tire and Wheels, that is "Bus" and "wheel", this is related to the company Michelin, which has been developed for this concept. TCOOTER really sets an unusual approach to the propellers, the scooter is really executed on the custom wheels that are not afraid of any breakdowns or harsh terrain.

The machine is designed for large cities in developing countries. Incomes in these countries are small, so TCOOTER set the minimum price, however, the author of the concept did not express it in numbers. The major advantage of the scooter engine design is removable, it can be removed from the frame and used as a generator, if you need an autonomous power supply.

Apple is interested OLED-screen Samsung

Despite the exception to the rule as a new iPad, mobile gadgets like Apple, and in general all the world's leading electronics manufacturers are becoming thinner and thinner. Most likely, in the next five to ten years we will see the first device, the screen that will be bent - and with it will bend the entire body. Prototypes are already in full walk on exhibitions, and Apple hastens to be one of the first to try the taste of the new technology.

The Korea Times newspaper, citing its sources in the Asian community reports that Apple, «probably», ask Samsung to put a certain number of its flexible OLED-screens. Start of mass production planned for the second half of 2012. That Samsung has made significant progress in the implementation of this amazing technology, which led to a sharp rise in orders for products with its use, as recently said Samsung Electronics Chairman Kwon O Hyon. And when it comes to large orders something, all the analysts in a voice whisper the name of the company from Cupertino.

Until the end of this year will be made slightly less than one million flexible OLED-screens - not the most impressive figure, given the industry a huge appetite for mobile devices. This is a logical explanation. Production of any "futuristic product" requires a long break, which felt the LG and Sharp, have been unable to cope with time Retina-display for the new iPad. Korean journalists believe that flexible displays are not destined to appear in the sixth generation iPhone, but the next year - it is quite possible. This smart pen makers have called them «iPhone Yoga».

Convenient electric bike

Electric bikes, based on mountain bikes (such as the Terminus, and eSpire) is possible and good trails in the forest, but to give them stability on the sand dunes, snow and ice, what we see in the highlands, it is better to use the flotation tires that we and saw in 2010. The company is ready to present two models in 2012 - an added rear suspension to overcome the mountain trails and the second, which is designed specifically for golfers.

Studying the previous model, the chief engineer Dan Hanebrink realized that something was missing. To fill this gap, the eight-adaptive front suspension fork with a double and three attachment points were added to five-inch rear suspension Hanebrink III consists of an air damper RockShock for easy climbing up steep rocky trails.

The unique rear shock, copied from the rear air suspension Ducati, designed to increase the adhesion to the surface. Air suspension makes it easier to overcome RockShock steep climbs. It gradually becomes harder when you drive up, and just as slowly returns to its normal position, providing a smooth ride.

"This is a multi-tube approach" - say in the company of Southern California. "Instead of one or two large beams, lattice frame provides great suspension moves with no significant weight gain. The system distributes the load over a larger area, thus achieving high stiffness, but it lacks the weight associated with large amounts of metal. "

Hanebrink III equipped with a 750 watt brushless electric motor and 7-speed (available separately as 14-speed version) and 36V/9.6 Ah LiNMC battery with a power reserve is 20 miles (32 km). The frame is made from solid aluminum pipe (Aircraft Aluminum 6061-T6). The bike is equipped with front and rear hydraulic disc brakes and switch speed Shimano. Complementing the picture tubeless tires squat 20 x 8 inches on aluminum discs.

Take a look at the following video, where a prototype Hanebrink III overcomes a mountain trail in the Santa Monica:

90 lbs (40 kg) Hanebrink III is available in black, orange or regular colors with a starting price of 6.750 U.S. dollars.

Unfortunately, at the time of writing was not collected enough information on the golf bike models. It was created by the numerous requests from golfers. The model assumes zatrachivaniya rider did some work on the movement, in contrast to a standard electric vehicle. Also, it should be removed, such as the annoying little things problematic to maintain a lead acid battery and leaking oil from the leading transmission.
Bicycle frame slightly modified to facilitate access to the club. It also ensures the stability of your "horse" in the heat of the game do not have to pay attention to it. It is not known when this model goes on sale, but we'll keep you posted.
