Microsoft offers a closer look at its HoloLens headset

Where are we heading to,is it the word we say as future,go more advanced to the future by reading this.
Microsoft has been showing off HoloLens at its Build developers conference this week on stage, with impressive demonstrations of some of its capabilities. While we’re aware of most of what HoloLens enables, the software maker has kept the details of its hardware headset rather secret. Today, Microsoft is offering up a few new details about what exactly is buried inside its futuristic headset.
Unlike most VR headsets, Microsoft is using see through lenses to allow you to see the rest of a room or the environment you’re interacting with, in a similar way to Google’s Glass headset. To assist with this, HoloLens uses a combination of spatial sound and sensors in the headset to capture information about the environment you’re in. Spatial sound works by using binaural audio, something we’ve looked at closely before, to make sounds appear like they’re being transmitted behind you or from anywhere in the environment you’re standing in. Just like Google Glass, there’s even a video camera so you can take photos or capture video.

Inside the headset Microsoft is using a variety of sensors. A microphone array captures voice commands, and Microsoft has built a depth sensor into the headset to spatially map the environment and understand hand gestures like the air tap feature to click and navigate. There’s an accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer that all combine with head tracking cameras to process and understand how a head is moving. It all adds up to a headset that "weighs significantly less than the average laptop."

HoloLens also includes a CPU and GPU, just like you’d find in a laptop or PC. “But that wasn’t enough to handle all the processing required to understand our world, so we had to go beyond the traditional CPU and GPU,” explains Todd Holmdahl, head of Microsoft’s next generation devices team. Microsoft has created its own holographic processing unit (HPU) which acts as a third processor to process where you’re looking, hand gestures, and the spatial map around you in real-time. It’s a custom processor designed specifically for HoloLens.

While Microsoft is offering some new details about its HoloLens headset hardware, the company still isn’t providing detailed specifications or an explanation of exactly how HoloLens works without any wires or tethering to a phone.

Copy in your Windows PC and paste it into your Android Phone.Amazing,then read me.

Hi iam going to share a wonderful peace of software which solves your problem while doing multiple tasks with your Android and Windows PC.So on the sudden you may arise with a question "How to share the clipboard contents from my Windows PC to Android Phone".Well iam here to solve your problem.

Steps to sync your clipboard contents to Android
It is not going to be a big task for you guys.It is simple.

Download ClipSync Server 3.0 (Uploaded onto my personal server).
Install the application you have downloaded and Run It and make sure your Android and PC were in the same network.Go and Click on the ClipSync icon like this and you will get an IP Address.

Now go and grab your Android phone.It seems it is the easiest step so iam not providing you any screenshots.Goto PlayStore and search for ClipSync then install it.
Now open the application and Press Options or Menu key and press New Server.Enter the IP Address you have got in the previous step and fill it in the first textbox carefully.

[Battery Saving Tips] How to Monitor/Save/Extend Battery Life on my Samsung Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge

One of the first common issues that is plaguing owners of the new Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge is on poor battery life or battery drains fast. And for this reason, we've come up with this post containing some tips that will help save or extend battery on the new S6 devices.

There are several factors that would affect battery power consumption on your device. Among these are network configuration, signal strength, enabled features, operating temperature, backlight settings, vibrate mode, frequency of calls and voice, data, browser use, wireless service provider and other apps' usage patterns. And proper management of these factors can help maximize battery life.

Here are some helpful tips that will help conserve battery power.

Monitor Battery Life on Galaxy S6/S6 Edge

Follow these steps to keep track of your phone's battery life or view the battery status:

1. Touch Apps from the Home screen.

2. Touch Settings.

3. Touch Battery.

Note: You may need to touch the System tab and then touch Battery to proceed.

4. You will be prompted with Battery status showing relevant details such as the percentage of battery power remaining and the approximate time for the power to last. The processes that have been utilizing the battery power on your device since it was last charged and the percentage used by each may also be shown.

Please note that the settings and screens available may differ by software version and wireless service provider.

5. To see which processes were running since the last time your device was fully charged, touch Battery Usage (if available).

6. To view its Use details or Adjust power use, touch the name of an application or process.

After viewing your phone's battery status, you will determine whether or not it is necessary to save power or reduce battery consumption.

How to Reduce Battery Consumption on your S6 or S6 Edge?

There are several options in your device that will help you conserve or save battery power. You can customize these options or turn off (disable) some features in the background so you can use the device longer between charges. Here are the things you can do to lower your phone's battery power usage.

1. Avoid or discontinue using Live wallpapers.

2. Disable/turn off Bluetooth feature when not in use or needed.

3. Disable/turn off Wi-Fi when not in use.

4. Disable/turn off GPS service when not in use.

The best way to write multiple IF statements into a single statement in Java,C++,Android-Java,etc

Hi everyone,

Today iam going to give you a wonderful trick a programmer facing off while dealing with IF statements.

Introduction
The most important phase of a program is its dynamicity.So without an IF ELSE statement,merely no programmer can write a program with dynamic content.So whats the big problem comes upon is the source file,its size is increasing according to the number of IFs are increasing.So why not just make multiple IFs to a single statement.And be a smarter programmer while others reviewing your source code.

How to write multiple IF statements into a single statement?
Here comes the saviour CONDITIONAL operator.

?: operator
The value of a variable often depends on whether a particular boolean expression is or is not true and on nothing else. For instance one common operation is setting the value of a variable to the maximum of two quantities. In Java you might write

if (a > b) { max = a;}else { max = b;}

Setting a single variable to one of two states based on a single condition is such a common use of if-else that a shortcut has been devised for it, the conditional operator, ?:. Using the conditional operator you can rewrite the above example in a single line like this:

max = (a > b) ? a : b;

(a > b) ? a : b; is an expression which returns one of two values, a or b. The condition, (a > b), is tested. If it is true the first value, a, is returned. If it is false, the second value, b, is returned. Whichever value is returned is dependent on the conditional test, a > b. The condition can be any expression which returns a boolean value.

Example

Unmodified Code

String mode="";
if(age<=10)
mode="child";
else if(age>=11&&age<=19)
mode="teenager";
else if(age>=20&&age<=45)
  mode="adult";
else if(age>=55&&age<=101)
  mode="old man";
else
  mode=null;

Modified Code with conditional operator

String mode=age<=10?"child":age>=11&&age<=19?"teenager":age>=20&&age<=45?"adult":age>=55&&age<=101?"old man":null

How easy it is?
11 lines of code into a single line code.Which is better?.Hm.Feel free to use the above trick anywhere in any language that support conditional operator and always be a smarter developer.

Needless to mention but your iPhone 6 plus is packed with some of the most exciting features and is Apple’s largest creation so far. However, no matter how good the device is, it will function with a specific carrier provider only and therefore, you will not be able to use your iPhone 6 Plus by inserting the SIM card of another GSM provider. This is precisely why you must seek the services of a professional and reputed unlocking service provider.

IMEI Unlocking – The Safest Way to Unlock

Websites that offer phone unlocking services, use the IMEI unlocking system to offer safe and secure unlocking. In order to unlock your iPhone 6 Plus, all you need to do is share your IMEI code with them and in turn they will check whether your IMEI code is available with their IMEI database or not.

Therefore, always do a reference check and then proceed with the unlocking procedures further.

Unlocking Tips

Unlocking requires you to follow certain steps very carefully. First and foremost, make sure that your iPhone 6 Plus is fully activated with its original network provider before you eventually get it unlocked. Secondly, make sure that the device’s IMEI code isn’t barred, blacklisted, or stolen. Next, find whether its existing network is listed with the unlocking service provider or not. Once you have checked the above mentioned points, send your IMEI code to the unlocking service providing website and their representative will in turn send you a message confirming that your details have been received. Once you receive the message, you need to launch iTunes in your iPhone 6 Plus and you will automatically receive a message confirming that your phone has been successfully unlocked.

Troubleshoot Samsung Galaxy Note 4 not turning on or not charging

April 2015 - The Acer Swift 3 is a near-perfect laptop for those who want an ultraportable, but don’t want to fork out £1000+. Build quality is great, battery life very good, and performance a match for much more expensive laptops. There are just two areas where the low price shows. First, it's a little thicker and heavier than some ultrabooks. It looks good enough, but limited maximum brightness and fairly poor colour reproduction limits its usefulness in certain situations. done a pretty good, well we have collected a lot of data from the field directly and from many other blogs so very complete his discussion here about April 2015, on this blog we also have to provide the latest automotive information from all the brands associated with the automobile. ok please continue reading:

This article contains the commonly recommended workarounds and possible solutions to a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 issue, in which the device won't power on or charge.

If you are having the same problem with your Note 4 device, I encourage you to spare a little of your time reading on, for who knows the fix you've been searching for is just indicated in this content.

Please don't forget to test your device after completing each of the following procedures to see if the problem is fixed. If not, then proceed to the next method until you hopefully get the remedy in the end.

If none of these workarounds would do any good to you, then you should consider other options available to resolve the problem.

1. Check if the battery is flat. Of course, you cannot turn on your phone if the battery is flat. If it is, then charge the battery.

To properly charge the battery, connect the charger to your phone. Wait until the battery charging icon is displayed as this indicates charging is in progress.

It may take a little longer for the battery charging icon to show especially if the device is completely drained. Allow it to charge for at least an hour or so. When the battery is completely charged, you can remove the charger from the wall socket and your phone.

2. Check for battery charging issues. Does your phone charge when you plug in the charger? If not, then it's likely the reason why your phone won't power on.

If your phone is not charging, here's what you can try:

a. Make sure you are using a Samsung-approved battery, battery charger, and USB charger cable for your device.

b. If you are using a wireless charger, make sure it has the Wireless Power Consortium logo and is Qi certified. Here are the things you can try when charging with a wireless charger:

Try to charge your device again.
Make sure the charging plate is plugged in.
Align the device on charging plate until both the phone and charging plate indicate it is charging. If it doesn't show it's charging, try to remove any possible obstructions.
Leave your device on the charger for at least one minute to make sure it is charging properly.

If the phone doesn't charge, then you may try using a different charger, (preferably 2.0Amp battery chargers) if available. Charging your device with a 1.0 Amp charger could take more time to fully charge.

3. Try to press the Power button for about 3 to 5 seconds. Doing so will help you determine if the battery is due to certain battery power issues that's why it does not power on.

4. Try to power on the device while it is connected to the wall charger. Also check if the device and charger display the correct charging/LED indicator. Again, please note that when the battery is extremely low, your display may remain blank for up to 5 minutes before a low battery image displays. In this case, the device usually powers up after 20 minutes of charging.

5. Make sure the SIM card is properly inserted. It's possible that your phone is not responding or showing a blank or frozen screen.

To eliminate the possibility that a SIM card issue is causing you this trouble, ensure the SIM Card is properly inserted and secured. You may consider removing and re-inserting the SIM card in this case.

The proper way to remove/re-insert SIM card on your Note 4 device is demonstrated below:

a. Make sure the device is completely turned off. Do not attempt the SIM card while your device is on because it could harm the SIM card or the device itself.

b. Locate the notch on the upper left edge of the back cover and then gently pull the battery cover off.

c. Locate the notch in the lower right corner of the battery and then pull the battery out gently.

d. When the battery is out, slide the SIM card out of the Micro SIM card slot.

You may insert the SIM card now or later. If you opt to re-insert it right away, be sure to have the gold contacts faced down and then insert the card notched end first into the Micro SIM card slot. Continue to the next step.

e. After securing the SIM card is positioned properly, align the battery contacts then press the battery into place.

f. Align the battery cover then gently press it into place.

Now try to power on your device. If problem persists, try the next workaround.

5. Try performing a soft reset, if applicable. This can be done by removing then re-inserting the battery after a few seconds.

If the issue remains after performing all the aforementioned workarounds, then you may consider either taking your device to a technician for possible faulty hardware repair or battery replacement.

Otherwise, please contact your phone carrier or Samsung Support to escalate the issue and ask for further assistance and recommendations.

Powtoon is an online application to create free animated videos easily! Simply create an account and prepare an idea. The rest is almost alone (with your help, of course). The software provides libraries of images (in different graphic styles: drawings, illustrations, kids ..etc) and small character animations (happy, sad ..etc). There are also arrows, squares, text that is written with an animated hand or a hand that brings the objects! To all this, we can add music from the library or our own music, you can even put your own voice!

Texts, images, animations (pre-designed) arrive and depart from one side to the other, all according to your chosen timing. It works much like Powerpoint (with slides), and as a video editor (with timeline).

- Choose a message: No more than one message per video. The goal is to clearly, explain an idea or point of view.
- Meet your target: your message must respond to a need or a request or offer a proprietary.
- Prepare your animation on a paper: Create a scenario, mini storyboard and list the content you need.

Is Android really better than iOS?

Today in Open Source: Is Android better than iOS? Plus: How to run Linux on your Windows computer, and a Pennsylvania school district embraces open source solutions

Paul Stamatiou has switched from iOS to Android, and he has a compelling list of reasons why he thinks Android is better than iOS.

It was just meant to be a quick experiment. I started using a Nexus 4. I was going to go right back to my iPhone after a week. I was designing more and more Android interfaces at Twitter and realized I needed to more intimately grok Android UI paradigms.

A week in it started feeling normal; the larger form factor was no longer a nuisance. A month in I didn't miss anything about my iPhone. Two months in I sold my iPhone 5 and iPad Mini. It has now been three months since I made the switch. I'm loving Android.

More at PaulStamatiou.com

I generally hesitate to wade into the "this product is better than that" kind of discussion, for the simple reason that everybody's needs are different. If you read Paul's commentary (and it's worth a read), it's clear that Android is meeting his needs much more than iOS ever did.

Angry iOS and Android Fans
I'm sure Paul is going to catch some heat for his commentary from some of the Apple devotees out there. What he is saying amounts to heresy to some of those folks, but I give him credit for honestly stating his preference in mobile devices.

I think he'd be catching heat if he'd written it the other way around, and had switched from Android to iOS. Some Android fans are as equally passionate as their iOS counterparts for sure.

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder
But beauty is in the eye of the beholder when it comes to mobile devices and ecosystems. My friend Kevin used to use an Android phone, but switched to IOS and he's never been happier. I've asked him why and his answer amounted to "it just works" and he's happy with that.

I have yet another friend though who switched from iOS to Android because he has large hands and needed a larger size screen on his phone. Patrick is able to shift easily between operating systems, and may yet move back to iOS if Apple ever releases an iPhone with a larger screen.

Choice is a Beautiful Thing: Android, iOS or Something Else
If the product you choose isn't meeting your needs, then it makes sense to switch as Kevin, Patrick and Paul did. That is why competition and market alternatives are so important. No two users are exactly alike, and no product is going to make everybody happy.

Choice is a beautiful thing, whether you choose iOS or Android or something else entirely.

Have you switched between iOS and Android? Or did you choose something else? Tell me why in the comments.

Here's how to wipe cache partition on your Galaxy S6:

1. Power off your phone.

2. Press and hold the Power, Volume Up and Home button.

3. When you see a blue screen with Android logo on it, you will be routed to the recovery menu.

4. To scroll and highlight Wipe Cache Partition, use the Volume buttons.

5. Press the Power button to confirm selection.

6. A message in yellow will then appear at the bottom of the screen. This should serve as your signal that the wipe cache partition process is completed.

7. Highlight the option to Reboot System Now.

8. Press the Power button to confirm selection.

9. Wait for your Galaxy S6 to reboot and recompile all of your applications. It may take a while for your device to re-cache them all so just wait patiently. Once the process is all done, you should have your S6 running as smooth as it should.

Hope this helps.
