Many services and Web applications are also available as an app for a smartphone model to take advantage of the touch screen.
There are also games that turn it into portable console. They may be similar to 3D games on computers there 10 years. In 2000, we often had a resolution of 800x600 pixels on a 15-inch CRT, which corresponds to the resolution of smartphones.
And there are quantities of application that could run on computer, but that is not used because it must start immediately and anywhere.
Here are some examples of the amazing capabilities of today's smartphones ...
By taking advantage of GPS, looking for a restaurant or any service can direct you on what is nearby.
Always with GPS and also using integrated webcam and of course the compass, you can view information superimposed places to which you point a smartphone.
It thus serves as a tour guide. View Augmented Reality.
One can also combine augmented reality and the search engine and reveal superimposed the image taken by the camera, a message showing them what you are looking for.
Some ISPs offer an API that turns a mobile touch easiest to use remote than the one supplied with the box of the operator.
You have the option chain, order a recording and performing actions impossible with the standard remote control.
In other words, the control center for home appliances, including lamps. Android @ home is an application for Android that automatically manages your home. Lighting control as needed, for example. Applications will depend on developers.
By placing the mobile on the bed when sleeping, it thanks to the accelerometer can detect your location and deduce what stage of sleep you are. He did not wake you if you are in deep sleep, but wait until you are released in to sound the alarm.
Allows pointing his mobile to heaven to see the position, speed and weight of the nearest plane.
In addition, it displays the flight number, departure airport and the destination.
To do this the application uses the ADS-B system that team now airplanes and transmits a signal containing the data.
In a foreign country, point the camera on a poster, a restaurant menu written in an unknown language, and it will be translated into the language of your choice.
The application Accoustic Ruler is capable of determining the distance between a point and the machine (up to 25 meters), using the speaker to emit a sound, microphone to receive the echo, and calculating the time between. It uses room temperature as an adjustable parameter ...
A free application gives us the name of a tree from a photo of a leaf with a visual recognition software. It was developed by Columbia University, Maryland and the Smithsonian Institute.
The database is still local enough for now. See Leafsnap.
Use a mobile to control a robot, it is the specialty Cellbots. This site provides a variety of software for controlling hardware that give a "body" and moving the extended capabilities. In fact the mobile can now be part of the robot, it becomes his brain and control center. The photo at right shows an example of a tank robot able to interact with the environment through the webcam and mobile processing capabilities. If this mobile runs on Android, it's natural that it can control a colleague. In this case the Brother must be a LEGO Mindstorms NXT, a small entertainment robot to assemble and program.
Download Mindroid. Open source software to control a robot.
It is an accessory and software. For $ 40, you have a miniature pinball interfaced with the program and using the smartphone screen to represent the track of the ball, with bumpers flashing.
As shown in this video, with wi-fi connection and a mobile phone, it is possible to remotely control a flying machine, in this case a helicopter, receive a picture with a camera and in combination with augmented reality, driving in a semi-artificial universe.
This demonstration is carried out by the French company Parrot.
This invention has won three awards, including the National Science Foundation, for a total of 510,000 dollars.
By connecting this mini-microscope that costs almost nothing to a mobile phone, it is possible to have a mobile laboratory replacing a very expensive equipment!
The device placed on a drop of blood can send the image to a remote laboratory that will analyze in real time.
This microscope has no lens, the magnification is obtained by light-emitting diodes that pass through the sample while the image is captured by the camera of the mobile. In fact we get a hologram that can reconstruct an image by computer processing can be automated, remote site returns a diagnosis after comparison with its database.
It can be used by anyone without special training.
See the website of UCLA and Lab on a chip.
The company offers Runware interface software with a sensor, usually adapted to a hip belt, to display more comfortable heart rate. It comes with an accessory to retrieve the belt signal.
In addition to visibility, the mobile establishes statistics and make intelligent processing by combining heart rate to geographic data and on the ground.
With a sensor connected to the mobile it is possible for example, to test their blood sugar levels.
An application available in 2011.
There are also games that turn it into portable console. They may be similar to 3D games on computers there 10 years. In 2000, we often had a resolution of 800x600 pixels on a 15-inch CRT, which corresponds to the resolution of smartphones.
And there are quantities of application that could run on computer, but that is not used because it must start immediately and anywhere.
Here are some examples of the amazing capabilities of today's smartphones ...
- The iPhone has innovated with the voice interface that allows Siri to ask questions such as the address of a restaurant verbally and also get a voice response. A similar function is provided on the Samsung Galaxy S3.
- Data transfer between computer and smartphone
- Galaxy S3 allows a device to transfer a file to another by putting them side by side.
- This camera has face recognition. It can give a name to someone on a photo.
- Simply place the unit against the ear to it automatically dials a number.
- WiFi Direct is linking multiple devices without operator.
- Third-party software add augmented reality: the information is displayed on the places taken by the camera.
- The classic features such as cameras, voice recorder, note taking, HD videos are they became common.
- The Samsung Galaxy Note has a stylus and a pattern recognition software.
- The Galaxy Beam him a pico projector to project pictures to see in the group.
- The Fire Phone Amazon is able to recognize an object, music, text. This is used by the store to present the corresponding commercial products ...
- With a touch screen computer and any smartphone, and of course the right software, it is possible to transfer text and images from one device to another by a movement of the fingers, as shown in the video to the right.
- And examples of applications taking full advantage of these capabilities ...
