iCloud Communications Sues Apple

Apple faces trademark infringement case anymore. Providers of internet protocol-based voice services, iCloud Communications, sued the use of the name iCloud on Apple's file sharing services.

iCloud Communications alleges use of the name iCloud on Apple's new service can be confusing to consumers. Moreover, the service has a resemblance to the products they offered. Companies based in Arizona that offers IP-based voice service (VoIP).

Like Apple, they have the same service using a centralized server. Communications iCloud party claimed to have used iCloud brand since 2005. The problem, Apple's service is faster iCloud publicly known because the company led by Steve Jobs is doing a vigorous campaign. In effect, the public will be more familiar with iCloud as Apple products

iPhone Participate In Space travel

iPhone became the first smart phone that follows the journey into space. In the summer of 2011, space shuttle Atlantis will carry two handsets made ​​by Apple it to the International Space Station to test the application.

Applications that were tested is Spacelab, developed the software maker from Houston, Odyssey Space Research. When the iPhone 4 out, a programmer at the company realizes that it can be used in space experiments to test the vehicle's position and orientation with a gyroscope, camera and sensor.

''In the test, astronauts use the iPhone to perform four experiments,''explained Chief Officer of Electronic Odyssey electronista.com Brian Rishikof as quoted on Friday (10 / 6).

The first test done on the leg tracker to estimate the height of the image edge of the curved earth. Then the sensor calibration test with the iPhone camera and other sensors to adjust the gyroscope and accelerometer.

The next test is the introduction of spatial order to match the picture of the earth with an image database of the country's national boundaries. The trial last used on a computer by examining the effects of radiation single bit changes in the phone memory.

Applications that reportedly will be sold to the public at a price of U.S. $ 1. However, most iPhone users do not have access to space travel, some features of the application will be simulated. IPhone plan and the space shuttle Atlantis will be launched on STS-135 on 8 July.

Smartphones Can Detect Cancer

Researchers based in the United States is developing a smart phone technology that can detect cancer cells. The accuracy of this phone-based system has almost reached 100 percent in detecting differences in benign and malignant tumors.

Translational Medicine report in Science shows the results of 100 per cent accurate diagnosis while researching another 20 patients were examined. For comparison, standard pathology tests on similar samples only reached the level of accuracy between 74 and 84 per cent.

The phone is able to change the treatment of cancer and facilitate doctors to track the disease, also measure the level of treatment will be given to patients to combat the degenerative disease.

The device, developed at Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, United States, it consists of a small device that, through the smart phone will detect lumps that are often feared as cancer. This device is connected to a mini-sized MRI machines as well.
Ralph Weissleder was a scientist from the Massachusetts General Hospital developed a machine called a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), which allows the identification of chemical compounds to find out their reaction in a magnetic field.

The researchers then took samples of cells from a suspicious lump found in the patient's body, just with a thin needle. Then hold the magnet in an MRI machine that stimulates the molecule in the sample cell. The more the molecules vibrate, there is a possibility that it was the cancer cells. Within one hour you can know whether the suspicious lump in the body of a cancer patient is dangerous or benign.

Conventional cancer tests conducted by expert ontologies. Step is to take some cells from the lump using a large needle and then analyzed in the laboratory. Usually this kind of laboratory tests did not provide sufficient certainty and are not effective because it takes time for days.

IPad Camera 2 Not Just for Photographing

As expected, it seems odd that Apple would not add a camera on both the current generation iPad all manufacturers do this tablet. As predicted earlier, IPAD 2, which launched in San Francisco, USA, on Tuesday (03/02/2011) morning local time has also been equipped with two cameras at once.

"We have to equip it with a camera for video. We put the camera on the back and front,"said Apple CEO Steve Jobs told a news conference at the Yerba Buena Center of the Arts in San Francisco, California, USA.

In explanation dio its website, Apple said the two cameras are designed to do videochat through FaceTime applications. This application had previously been introducedto the the notebook Mac Pro and the iPhone 4 . And now three sets of users who have supported FaceTime can perform two-way communication in the form of video.

Both cameras can also be used alternately during a videochat. If the front of the camera is activated, users can communicate with each other as direct. At the moment did videochat, users can switch to rear camera to share something in front of him to his interlocutor. To do FaceTime must with a WiFi network. Unfortunately it is only exclusive layananvideochat by FaceTime and Apple is not open to third-party applications.
Rear camera can also be used for recording in video format HD (high definition). Indirectly, IPAD 2 also can be used to make high-quality film to capture an interesting event in front of the user. Recordings can be directly edited and shared via YouTube or email. The camera also has supported the rear light sensor so that users can record with a variety of effects in any condition both during the day or night with minimal lighting.

To create a more professional video recording, iMovie application could be an option. Users can add titles, choose a theme, and transitions between scenes, even spundtrack. The results can be shared on Facebook or YouTube. However, users have to spend more in the 4.99 U.S. dollars from iTunes because iMovie is not available as a free application.

While with the front camera, users can use it to create unique photo yourself. Apple has provided an application that provides many Photo Booth effects to produce a personal photo with the feel of classic to artistic.

"Smart Covers" Make Ipad 2 More Unique

From the first, Apple is known for its strength in product design. Not only on its main product, Apple was very concerned with supporting accessories. With high quality standards and unique design, the users of Apple products, were generally willing to spend more to enhance your use of the product.

To iPad 2, which was launched at the Yerba Buena Center of the Arts, on Tuesday (03/02/2011), for example, Apple introduced a unique glove with a variety of color choices. Although approximately the same function that protects the screen at once into the holder when placed on the table, its shape is much different. New Gloves and techie chic more impressed than the first generation of gloves iPad professional impression.

"Something that might just be more popular, we call it Smart Covers," said Apple CEO Steve Jobs during a press conference. He said the gloves on first generation IPAD is working, but a separate issue because it covers the entire body, so do not display the beauty IPAD design tablet device. Steve Jobs hopes Covers Smart design better than previous glove.
Glove design, the newly designed blend with the design of IPAD 2 and did not cover the entire body. Perhaps more suitable known because only a cover sheet that covers the screen only. When the cover is closed automatically turns off the screen iPad 2 and when the screen is opened to activate the screen again. Cover will continue to stick on the screen during closed because they contain magnets.

Not only serves as a protective screen cover can also be used as a placeholder. Cover can be folded into a triangle as a base iPad 2 in the table. The cover is made of polyurethane (a type of polymer foam) or skin. Smart Covers sold separately as additional accessories sold at Apple stores. To which made polyurethane valued for 39 dollars and for the skin material 69 U.S. dollars. Available colors gray, blue, green, orange, pink, white, yellow, black, dark blue, and red.
