Mozilla Prepare the Operating System for Tablets

Mozilla is preparing a special mobile device operating system. Even though 'similar' Chrome OS, the target is the smartphones and tablets.


Project to create this new operating system called Boot to the Gecko or abbreviated B2G. Web-based open operating system is almost the same idea as conceived by the Google Chrome OS.


However, if ChromeOS made to the notebook, B2G this project will target smartphones and tablets. As stated by Andreas Gal Mozilla technician who quoted from eWeek, Tuesday (07/26/2011).


Gecko name of the project is taken from Mozilla's layout engine. Gelagatnya, Mozilla will build with components B2G Android and Gecko as its main technology.


Mike Shaver, one of the lead developers of this project, said Android is only used to a minimum. Android kernel and drivers say just be a starting point.


In this project paved the Mozilla hoped to attend the help and advice from many developers in the world. They will cooperate in the scheme of a typical open the Open Source community.


Of course, Mozilla would need time to compete with the Chrome OS. Google just took two years to achieve the expected results, and now Chrome OS is still on the rise as well.

Apple Create 3D Display Without Glasses?

Apple is reportedly designing a multi-layer display that allows users to view 3D images without glasses.

This rumor comes from an informed AppleInsider Apple's latest patent application.In the patent it is mentioned that Apple is developing the latest display technology.

3D-capable devices that are currently often creates depth perception of computer graphics are used to increase the angle of view two-dimensional image.

But the company is headquartered in Cupertino, California, United States (U.S.) is convinced that such techniques are not perfect, because it only sends a limited number of image depth and requires the user to use glasses that are less convenient to be able to see it.

Well, multi-layer display system developed by Apple, as reported by TG Daily and quoted on Friday (7/22/2011), screens displayed by a number of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) transparent. Each screen displays can be powered by its own graphics processing unit.

"The use of OLED panels will provide more benefits than ordinary display devices, since OLED panels do not require a backlight to function and can be thinner and lighter than the backlit display panel," the information contained in the patent application.

In addition to this information, AppleInsider also find other patent applications owned by Steve Jobs indicated the company is interested in designing a portable tablet-controlled movement with e-ink display. This device will be used specifically to read and interact with digital content.

Laptop Batteries Filled While Typing

Australian scientists find ways to channel the energy we use when typing to provide power for laptops. Thus, the motion carried typing on a laptop will automatically charge the battery energy devices.

It could be possible, using piezoelectricity. This method works the same way as moving the lighter for cigarette or cigar that produces sparks of piezoelectric crystals. Such information is quoted from Mashable

To provide electrical energy for laptop, it takes a sheet made of piezoelectric film that is thinner and developed using nano technology. Layer is very thin films that can cover different parts of the electronic toy and integrated into various types of gadgets.

"The energy generated from piezoelectric method can be integrated into running shoes to download the mobile phone charging. It can also be applied to the laptop to receive energy from the motion of typing," said study co-author, Dr. Madhu Bhaskaran.

He even mentions, Piezoelectric method can also be used to alter blood pressure a source of energy for pacemakers with long battery life.

But this idea is still under development and not yet completely implemented. Scientists are also looking for a way to touch-screen device could get energy from swipe motion carried. Unfortunately, they were not sure when the technology is deployed commercially.
