Harvard lets human minds control rats, private rodent armies remain distant (video)
Author: Jon Daniels
Sure, we’ve seen rats control other rats, however that will not offer us a legion of mind-controlled animals to release upon an innocent public, will it? Harvard Medical School might unknowingly assist with addressing our (rather misguided) quandary, as it just try out a system that lets a human mind trigger actions in a rat’s motor cortex. The test had sensor-equipped people see a display that flashed in sync with their EEG brain patterns for aesthetic stimulation; as quickly their attention moved to managing the rat, they triggered an ultrasonic rhythm that twitched the rodent’s tail. There’s a couple of troubles with the execution past the obvious lack of autonomy for the poor target animal, though. The rat’s anaesthetized state likely influenced the outcomes, and the system isn’t currently sophisticated adequate to map certain ideas to matching activities. The Harvard team is working to improve the modern technology, nonetheless, and there may be a day when we can satisfy our megalomania … or a minimum of, put the Pied Piper on notice.

Google’s Schmidt Says Chrome & Android Will Remain Separate – But Do not Be Fooled: Two Years Ago He Verified They Will Merge
Author: Brittany Turner
Google ’ s Eric Schmidt has said Mountain View will keep its 2 OSes, Android and Chrome, separate after all, according to a Reuters report. Schmidt, who is in India attending an IT occasion called Big Outdoor tents Activate Summit, stated the 2 os will remain different products but obviously likewise said there could possibly be more “ commonness ” between them. Techmeme editor, @ scepticgeek, who was seeing the conference livestream, additionally tweeted Schmidt saying Android and Chrome would be “ separate & individual for a long period of time ”: TechCrunch called Google and asked it to verify whether it plans to try to keep Chrome and Android
separate but Google decreased to comment. Exactly what ’ s most interesting about Schmidt ’ s comments today is that his words, as reported, seem to negate comments he made back in February 2011, when he
told delegates at the Mobile Globe Congress tradeshow that Chrome and Android would absolutely converge. We ’ re working overtime to get [. Chrome & Android] merged in properly “ We ’ re working overtime to obtain those technologies merged in the right method, ” he stated at the time, however added: “ I discovered a long period of time back, wear ’ t force innovation to merge when it ’ s not prepared, await the innovation to develop to the point when it can be merged. ” In shorts: a Chrome-Android merger is unavoidable, butalso gained ’ t be rushed. So his remarks today — about increasing commonality between Chrome and Android — suggest Google is still constructing a steady course to merging (as Schmidt stated it
was in 2011). Rumours that Google ’ s quasi-desktop OS Chrome and its touch-based mobile OS Android might be ready to merge were sparked earlier this month when head of Android, Andy Rubin, was shuffled out to another role within Google — with Sundar Pichai, head of Chrome and apps, taking over. Pichai did not leave his existing
responsibilities however rather included the Android short to his Chrome and apps portfolio, suggesting a unifying catalyst for the task changes. Chrome and Android ‘ staying different and individual for a long period of time ’ has similar emphasis as Schmidt ’ s comments from two years ago — when he said they would merge, eventually. Precisely exactly what he suggested by attempting to ensure they are “ merged in properly ” is up for argument — whatever it suggests, 2 years of Google working overtime still obviously hasn ’ t developed those sought after, clement conditions.(It ’ s likely Google requires to await the market to harmonize with its mobile driven vision — so expanding the Android platform and broadening its reach is one method Mountain View could have been “ working overtime ”.)Make no mistake though: the ultimate merger of Chrome and Android is inevitably since the differences between hardware categories are being eroded. Chrome OS was announced in mid 2009 — at a time when netbooks were riding high. Remember them? The launch of the iPad in 2010 developed the tablet group afresh and tablets quickly pulled the rug out from under mini laptop computers, and started wearing down the desktop computing market too — putting the emphasis squarely on touch and mobile computing. And from there it ’ s but a short hop to motions and wearables. All of which highlights that ultimately having two separate OSes — one mobile and one quasi-mobile — makes no sense for Google in the long run. It ’ s not a question of if Chrome and Android will merge — the huge concern is how quickly it can be made to happen.

Sony unloads ‘Sony City Osaka’ building for $1.2 billion, will remain as lessee
Author:
In a bid to bolster its bottom line, Sony’s been selling properties like a desperate monopoly player, and the latest space on the board to go is the Sony City Osaka building for 111.1 billion yen ($ 1.2 billion). That follows the sale of its NY headquarters for a similar sum, and the move of its global HQ from Sweden to Tokyo. The Osaka building has been purchased by a Japanese holding company who will lease the building back to Sony for a period of at least five years, which seems to be the trend for electronics companies lately. The Japanese conglomerate said all the property deals are being made to “transform its business portfolio and reorganize its assets.” Translation? Sony needs the cash, natch.

Visualized: On Mars, rivers are deep, mountains remain high
Author: Stacey Cook
Mars Express‘ mooch around the red world has actually yielded an additional set of snaps it felt deserving of including to its Facebook wall. It’s spent time looking at the Reull Valliss, a dry river that runs for the bulk of 932 miles (1,500 km) with the Promethei Terra highlands– and in some locations is over 4.3 miles (7km) wide and nearly 1,000 feet (300m deep). Researchers think that at some point, there was a lot of water in the location, as the landscape reveals signs of glaciation. Fancy a short game of amateur topographer? Check out the gallery we have actually got for you.

Apple Grabs 84% Of Mobile PC Shipments For Q2 2012, Tablet Market Predicted To Remain Strong In 2013
Author: Brandon Zimmerman
Apple was responsible for an impressive 84 percent of total mobile PC shipments in Q2 2012, owing primarily to the success of its iPad line, according to a new report from supply chain analysis firm NPD DisplaySearch. LG Display reaped the benefit of that market domination, leading the industry in mobile PC panel shipments in 2012 thanks to its supplier relationship with Apple.
The success of Apple’s mobile PC shipments relative to the rest of the market, as measured by OEM shipments to customers, is likely accounted for by the ramp-up of iPad 3 and iPad 2 production. The iPad 3, or new iPad, was just hitting its stride in terms of reaching production levels to keep up with demand following its introduction in Q1 of 2012, and the iPad 2 was enjoying a boost owing to its reduction in price. We’ve seen recently that the iPad 2 remains a very popular option with consumers, and likely made up a significant portion of Apple’s iPad sales in 2012, though the company doesn’t break out sales by individual device models when reporting its quarterly earnings.
NPD says that in 2013, other manufacturers competing with Apple will be looking to build stronger supply chain relationships with touch-capable notebooks (most likely based on Windows 8), and ultra-slim PCs, and that those competitors are working hard on locking down sufficient mobile display volumes from supplier partners. On the supplier side, Samsung specifically is said to be looking into reducing its share of Apple’s display manufacturing and focusing on adding other customers like Amazon and Barnes & Noble to the mix to diversify its efforts, according to NPD DisplaySearch analyst Jeff Lin, which could be related to growing tensions between the two companies.
Through the end of 2012, NPD predicts that year over year growth for notebook PCs will only be at around 2 percent, with a 28 percent drop for the mini-notebook category. But tablet growth is expected to be up around 75 percent year over year. NPD also predicts a 16 percent year over year uptick in notebook PC shipments for 2013 on average, with tablet PCs retaining strong growth, though perhaps at a less impressive rate than they experienced in 2013. Apple will likely still remain a key component of that growth, but we’ll have to see whether diversified offerings by other OEMs, including Asus, which makes the Nexus 7 line of tablets for Google, has any effect on ultimate shipment volume.

Telus plans LG Optimus G launch on November 13th, other carriers remain shy
Author: Brian McKinnell
LG committed to introducing its mostly outstanding Optimus G to the three major providers in Canada sometime in November. Simply which day the phone would show up was left a mystery, though, also when Rogers started taking pre-orders. It’s taking yet another supplier to sort things out: Telus has gone on the record with plans to carry the quad-core mobile phone starting November 13th, right at the height of what could be a hectic month. That’s all that the future-is-friendly network can easily state for now, although Rogers might have supplied the remaining piece of the problem when it offered out $ 130 contract and $ 600 downright costs. We have a hunch Telus wouldn’t wish to be the exception to the guideline.

Fire Shadow missile can remain aloft for six hours before obliterating a moving target (video)
Author: Laura Clark
If we were making a listing of frightening air-borne war machines, this would most likely rank near the top. You undoubtedly won’t wish to be targeted by the Fire Shadow, however from the safety of a web browser, it’s impossible not to admire the craft’s versatility. Made by French developer MBDA, the Fire Shadow missile is created to strike a stationery or moving item on command. However unlike some other UAVs, this ingenious rig can stay airborne for up to 6 hours prior to it’s assigned to damage a large automobile (and its occupants) from a nearly vertical position of attack. Tipping the scale at less than 440 pounds (about 200 kgs), it has an array of approximately 62 miles (100 kilometers) and is explained by MBDA as being “inexpensive price.” The British Army is said to have actually taken delivery of the missile in March, and will certainly begin testing in Sweden later this year, but you can easily see it action today in the demo video recording after the break.

Sprint discontinues HTC EVO 3D online, limited quantities remain at retail stores
Author: Tech Blogger
It’s not like we’re gonna argue with Sprint’s rationale, but the EVO 3D has met its end at the Now Network. Visitors to the carrier’s online store will notice that the gee-whiz smartphone is no longer available for sale, and Sprint reps have confirmed to us that it’s not coming back. Those who insist on owning an EVO 3D will be glad to know that the handset is still available at Sprint’s retail outlets, but according to the carrier, quantities are rather limited. Given a phone that debuted less than a year ago, its abrupt and unceremonious demise comes as a bit of a shock, but with the mighty EVO 4G LTE on the horizon, we can’t blame the carrier one bit.

Taser’s on-officer cameras catch you in the act, right to remain silent imperative
Author: Angela Stephens
Taser International has released an update to its on-officer system, the AXON Flex. The new rig provides law enforcement officials with body-mounted cameras that capture video evidence “from the officer’s perspective.” These recording devices can be affixed to the hat, collar, shoulder or on specially designed Oakley shades and are ruggedized to IPX2 standards. That’s all well and good, but what really gives this setup nerd-cred is what can be done with the captured video. Through a partnership with evidence.com, the Flex system can send footage to a “military grade” cloud-based storage system for safe keeping; there is also an on-site storage option for IT-savvy forces. As if that weren’t enough, Taser and Looxcie have co-developed a smartphone app — available for iOS or Android — that will allow officers to review captured clips and add GPS coordinates, notes or timestamps. The system’s goal is to protect officers from “false claims, enhance public trust [and] decrease litigation.” AXON Flex is set to be released in Q1 and will have a base price of around $ 700. Don’t tase film me, bro.
