Project Ara - Failure or Success?

Project Ara

 

 

LEGO doesn’t make phones, but if it did, it would probably make something very like Project Ara. But what is Project Ara? Instead of buying a phone that’s obsolete within a matter of months, Ara proposes that you buy a modular design instead. When one part gets old or a better version appears, you just swap the old component for a new one. It sounds great, but will it work? Find out everything you need to know about Project Ara right here.   

 

Project Ara delay

A recent tweet from the Project Ara team confirmed that Puerto Rico would no longer be the location of the Project Ara Pilot. It has now also been revealed that the initial launch has been postponed until 2016. 
The reason for the change in location isn't exactly clear, but the delay is said to have been caused by the development of "lots of iterations" of the device, and is probably because Project Ara has now abandoned the electromagnetic design of its modules.  
This had, for a long time, been the intended way to attach and detach modules from the body of the device, but it was hinted that the device's structural integrity wasn't holding up in drop tests, so another design route is now being pursued.

Should I be excited about Project Ara?

Cautiously, yes. If it delivers on its promises you could see the equivalent of the Google Play Store for smartphone hardware as well as apps. A phone that never becomes obsolete, that doesn’t require really expensive replacements every year or two and that can be repaired for pennies is a great idea, and the customization options are effectively limitless. If you want a device that’s truly your own, Ara promises to be the ultimate way of creating it.
That said, if Ara was Android we’d still be in the days of Android Astro Boy, Bender and R2-D2: a system with lots of potential that isn’t remotely ready for prime time. It arguably took Android four years to really hit its stride (with Ice Cream Sandwich, AKA Android 4.0), and getting the hardware equivalent right might take even longer. If Ara works it could revolutionize mobile computing. It just probably won’t do it in 2015.
What do you think of Project Ara? Are you looking forward to modular phones?

You are going to decide, Its success or failure? 

 

Let's Talk About PaperTab !!!! Flexbile Innovation for Flexible World

Researchers at Queen’s University have developed a flexible paper computer named Paper-Tab that will transform the way we work with tablet and computer.
The Paper-Tab tablet looks and feels just like a sheet of paper. However, it is fully interactive with a flexible, high-resolution plastic display, a flexible touchscreen, and a second generation Intel Core i5 processor. Instead of using several application or windows on a single display, users have ten or more interactive displays or “paper-tabs”: one for each computer application. Using several Paper-Tabs makes it much easier to work with multiple documents. Within five to ten years, most computers, from ultra-notebooks to tablets, will look and feel just like these sheets of printed color paper.

Paper tab’s plastic display is completely transformational in terms of user interaction that allows a natural human interaction with electronic paper. Being lighter, thinner and more robust compared with today’s standard glass-based displays; this is just one example of the innovative revolutionary products that are possible with the use of flexible displays.

PaperTab’s intuitive interface allows a user to send a photo simply by tapping the one Paper-Tab (having the photo) on the other Paper Tab (having the email application). The email can then be sent by bending the top corner of the Paper Tab’s display. Similarly, a larger drawing or display surface can be created simply by placing two or more Paper-Tabs  side by side. Paper-Tab thus imitates the natural handling of multiple sheets of paper by combining thin-film display, thin-film input and computing technologies through intuitive interaction design. Paper-Tab can file and display thousands of paper documents, replacing the need for a computer monitor and stacks of papers. Unlike traditional tablets, PaperTabs keep track of their location relative to each other and the user, thereby providing a seamless experience across all applications, as if they were physical computer windows. For example, when a PaperTab is placed outside of reach of the user, it displays the thumbnail overview of a document, just like icons on a computer desktop and when the uses picks up or touches  the PaperTab, it  switches back to a full screen page view, just like an opened window of a computer. Paper-Tabs are lightweight and robust, so they can easily be tossed around on a desk while providing a magazine-like reading experience. By bending one side of the Paper Tab’s display, users can also navigate through pages like a magazine, without needing to press a button.
