Sony 3D-360 Hologram

Sony's new 3D Hologram display, which is capable of rendering objects inside of a cylindrical glass enclosure. The effect is a ghostlike three-dimensional view that approaches technology from science fiction films. Today at the Digital Content Expo in Tokyo, Sony finally unveiled the device, which is about the size of a stack of CD-Rom disks. The first video of the machine gives you a pretty good sense of what the device can do, which is quite a lot. Images are only 128x96 pixels in resolution, but the LED technology in the screen can display 24-bit color depth, giving images an impressive rich color. Seeing 3D avatars rotating in space like that gets us salivating over the gaming potential of this thing. Earlier we speculated that a home console or handheld game device in the future could utilize this technology. Sony says it has plans to make much larger versions of this prototype

The "360 Degree Stereoscopic Display" unveiled by Sony is a prototype of a tabletop 3D display that can be seen from 360 degrees and doesn't require 3D glasses for full effect.According to Sony's press release, the gadget measures 13 cm in diameter and is 27 cm tall .

So what's it for? Seems that Sony isn't sure yet. Speculations are swirling that the device could be used commercially (for advertising, medical visualization, and digital signage) or in the home as a 3D digital photo display.

PSPWorld brainstorms some uses:

Imagine a future PSP shaped like a snow globe, in which images were conjured up in full 3D, with users controlling the action with touch input from the outside. Sony has already said that it intends to build 3D support into its PlayStation 3 games

Apple Tablet Computer

There has been a lot of talk this morning about Apple producing a Tablet computer by 2010. Business Week’s Peter Burrows recently received word of Apple’s plans to build a tablet-based device, to be released in 2010. Now Gene Munster,of reputable investment bank and securities firm Piper Jaffray, has published a note reinforcing the plans.
We expect Apple to fill the gap between the iPod touch and the MacBook with a new tablet device (not a netbook) priced at about $500-$700. Apple will likely leverage its multi-touch patents to differentiate its product from the typical netbook. We are anticipating a new category of Apple products with an operating system more robust than the iPhone’s but optimized for multi-touch, unlike Mac OS X. The device’s OS could bear a close resemblance to Apple’s mobile OS and run App Store apps, or it could be a modified version of Mac OS X.
As the App Store is currently in record profits and a new iPhone release on the way there is no rush for Apple to release a tablet computer. Of course it aims to fill the market between the iPhone and Macbook, but I cant see this device replacing a computer any time soon.

GO CYCLE ( Electric Bycycle)

The Gocycle is a lightweight electric bike developed with professionals and families in mind which brings a number of style and performance firsts to city-specific two-wheelers. Gocycle’s design engineer and founder of Karbon Kinetics Limited (KKL), Richard Thorpe, cut his teeth working in lightweight vehicle design for companies such as McLaren and turned his attention to bicycles in an attempt to break the mould of conventional design - and with its lightweight magnesium alloy construction, push-button access to electric propulsion and an innovative enclosed multi-speed chain-drive, the Gocycle does just that.

Functioning as a normal pedal powered bike, the Gocycle can switch to instant electric power at the touch of a button located on the handlebars. Its entire frame and wheels are injection-moulded in light-weight magnesium alloy in a process called Thixomoulding - a type of injection moulding for metal, which is more durable than plastic and commonly used to create magnesium casings of products such as laptops, digital cameras and mobile phones. This delivers the smooth, seamless look and performance of carbon fiber, but at one-tenth of the cost and allows the Gocycle to be produced at a much cheaper price than comparable carbon fiber bikes according to Thorpe.

Gocycle’s electric motor and controller are packaged in the easily replaceable front motor fork assembly and the motor is hidden away in the cycle’s front hub. The rider can quickly reach 15mph and a single charge, which takes approximately three hours, will provide a travel range of up to 20 miles depending on pedal input and terrain. The Gocycle is also the world’s first production bicycle to feature a completely enclosed multi-speed chain-drive with side-mounted wheels. This patented 3-speed Cleandrive system means no grease and grime on your clothes, and the side-mounted and interchangeable PitstopWheel means fixing a flat tire is easy. The unit is also designed to be easy to store, disassembling to a size of 65x54x26cm for packing away into a soft bag or hard case.

In another first, Gocycle will be introducing a virtual business model to the cycling industry to cut out the middlemen and deliver the Gocycle directly to the customer. While specialist high-end retail partners will also deliver a traditional face-to-face consumer service for those that prefer to buy the old fashioned way, Thorpe says he wants to, ‘bring Apple design and Dell distribution to the current two-wheeler marketplace,’ so the Gocycle will be available online as well as through in-store displays at Gocycle Certified Dealers. KKL also offers total replacement of parts under warranty and stock fulfilment of in-store purchases within 24 hours to UK mainland and two to three days to Europe.

Bicycles are big business in Asia and parts of Europe, but as urban commuters contend with ever stagnating traffic in major cities and government attempts to reduce traffic congestion around the world, KKL research predicts that the electric two-wheeler market is expected to have double digit growth in the next decade. KKL’s attempt to harness this market opportunity with the Gocycle provides a city-specific transport solution that is designed to be not only cost effective, but also fun – and really, is there anything more fun than cruising past backed up traffic on a bike? I think not.

The Gocycle only comes in white and will be available across the UK from this month. Customers will be able to purchase Gocycle directly online or by visiting one of Gocycle’s Certified Dealers across the UK. It will cost between £599 (approx. USD$895 at time of publication) and £1,198 (approx USD$2,480) including VAT, depending on the point of purchase. KKL also offer a Gocycle-to-Work scheme, whereby an employer hires a Gocycle for a year which the employee then hires from their employer for the same year, at the end of which the employee is then given the opportunity to buy the Gocycle for £38 (approx. USD$56)

In the middle of all the noise about the Chevrolet Cruze, we missed this story. It now seems that the electric version of the Chevrolet Spark which General Motors is planning to launch in association with the Reva electric car company, will be named the Chevrolet Spark Electra.

The Reva Electric car company has launched two electric car models – the Reva NXR and the NXG – at the recently concluded Frankfurt Motor Show 2009 too much acclaim. Prior to the Frankfurt Motor show, it was revealed that the two companies had decided to work together to produce an electric version of the Chevrolet Spark.

During the launch of the Chevrolet Cruize, the Vice President of GM India had said that the Chevrolet Spark Electra will be launched in India in 12 months’ time. He added that while Reva will provide the technology, General Motors would do the engineering and manufacturing of the environment friendly cars.

The cars made by Reva never really became popular in India due to their and reasonably high prices. It did not help that the initial versions of the car suffered from low build quality. Government subsidies did not exist, and car suffered from limited range and power offered by the lead acid battery.

The new reva NXR and NXG changes things and moves on to better battery technology. I believe that General Motors thinks it can capitalise on the electric car experience of Reva in India. This might be India’s first ‘real’ electric car – Tata’s Indica electric is not likely to come to India anytime soon.

Anyway, there is no more information about the Chevrolet Spark Electra at this moment. In the course of the next year, we are sure to find enough leaks about the car with photos, specs and details trickling in. We can’t wait to see India’s first true electric car from GM!

Samsung unveils 3D LCD Monitors

You Can have 3D Monitors in your home itself.
Samsung rolled out a 3 new lcd monitor, first up is a Samsung 2233RZ — a $349, 22-inch display, compatible with Nvidia's 3D vision graphics card, that sports a resolution of 1680x1050 pixels, 300cd/m2 brightness, 160 degree viewing angle and 5ms response time in 2D.

With Nvidia's software, the 2233RZ can covert over 350 games to stereoscopic 3D without the need for special game patches. Because the LCD runs at 120Hz, it can output an image at 60Hz per eye. 3D glasses are included with the monitor and hold a charge for a week before they must be plugged in to a USB port.

Samsung has also announced new displays that’re compatible with the company's UbiSync technology. This enables users to connect up to 6 monitors to a PC using a USB cable. No graphics card is required, and the displays are compatible with both Windows and Macs.

The Samsung 2243QW offers a 1680x1050 resolution, 5ms response time and 1000:1 contrast ratio. They also has two "laptop companion" screens, the LD190x and LD220. The LD190x supports UbiSync wireless, the video is transmitted from the host notebook without a cable.

Lastly, Samsung introduced SyncMaster 930ND, the first 19–inch PC-over-IP LCD, designed for datacenter environmentsm that comes with a blade server component. That server connects to other systems in the datacenter and they can be controlled remotely by those using the 930ND. The user can operate a host PC as if it were local, accessing all peripherals and media.
