Microsoft Reveals Innovation 3D Camera for Smartphone

CALIFORNIA - Microsoft revealed advanced smartphone camera technology. The company is developing the software giant camera with the ability to capture 3D images.

Reported from BGR, Friday (08/15/2014), Microsoft developed innovation by removing the infrared filter on the camera with a smartphone and put special filters that allow infrared light to pass through. In other words, companies replace a part that is designed to work otherwise.

Technology Review stated Microsoft did this because they wanted to use the reflective intensity of infrared light. The company also seems to do a cross between sonar signals and a torch in a dark room.

Thus, the light will bounce off the objects around it and back to the sensor with an appropriate intensity. Thus, this method allows them to determine exactly how close or far away an object is from the lens when the object photographed.

TechnologyReview page report, Sean Ryan Fanello, Cem Keskin, and Shahram Izadi from Microsoft Research to develop these innovations and expose it in the computer graphics and interaction conference in Vancouver, British Columbia. However, it is not known when the company will begin rolling out innovations that can be used on a commercial smartphone.

In The Future Smartphone's Screen Capable for DNA Analysis

CALIFORNIA - The screen smartphone in the future will be able to detect the temperature of the body heat of its ailing. Even more amazing, the display can analyze DNA.

The sensors will be embedded in the smartphone screen and allows users to determine their body temperature, assess blood levels (if the diabetes).

The researchers are also working with platforms such as Apple's HomeKit to provide more information about the health of the user in real time. This technique works similar to the way cable sends an electrical signal.

Experiments conducted by the researchers with the laser firing into the glass to create a pathway that is able to transmit data in the form of a small beam of light. Then the wave acts as a tunnel that channels the light. "We are opening a Pandora's box this time," said Raman Kashyap in a newspaper as quoted by Mashable, Saturday (07/19/2014).

A professor of electrical engineering and engineering physics at Polytechnique Montreal stated, is now feasible to use this technique and it's up to how one would use it.

Through this discovery, the smartphone is expected to not only screen that can be implanted biomedical sensors such, but can also be applied to other devices such as the surface of a table, or a window by the technology developers.
