HiSense introduces world's fastest Smart TV

It is rather interesting to see just how times have passed, that it would not make much sense at all just two or three decades back, if you were to ask your neighbor or friend, "Just how fast is your smart TV?" Well, there was no Smart TV all those years back, and to make matters worse last time, TVs were fat and chunky CRT models, instead of coming in a svelte form factor of today, which tend to lose more and more of their bezels along the way, too. Well, time has certainly brought its fair share of advancements in the world of TVs, where Smart TVs are now the norm for most living rooms. HiSense has stepped forward to the task of rolling out their fair share of Smart TVs, and recently introduced VIDAA, which is a stunningly simple, elegant, yet immensely powerful User Interface (UI) for Smart TVs.

In fact, HiSense hopes that with VIDAA, they are able to deliver easy, intuitive operation of advanced Smart TV features as well as its functionality. VIDAA is capable of simplifying and enhancing a passive, lean-back consumer experience with a new simplified remote control, where they will also see intuitive channel surfing working alongside a quartet of distinct content “silos”, making life a whole lot easier for the entire household to access desired content.

At the VIDAA's major launch, HiSense's four silos were specially designated by a specific button on the remote, which represented Live TV, Video On Demand, Media Center for personal content, and Applications. You will be able to navigate easily among the silos and view uninterrupted content as images slide into view. This is a spanking new kind of user interface which was specially designed in order to align with the passive nature of the 10-foot, lean back experience, where it will definitely favor consumption-friendly TV over complicated and controlled interaction. In a nutshell, HiSense has re-invented the Smart TV, hence delivering the world's fastest Smart TV along the way.

Razer Comms Beta connects gamers around the world

When it comes to gaming, there is one name that would definitely resonate with gamers – whether they are casual or hardcore, it does not matter. Razer is a name that has rolled out its fair share of hardware, be they mice, mouse pads, or keyboards (and even tablets recently), not to mention marrying such high-tech hardware to software apps that get the job done. Well, Razer's latest effort would come in the form of the Razer Comms that is currently in Beta format, where it will help to connect gamers around the world. Let us learn more about Razer Comms in the extended story.

In a nutshell, Razer Comms is an all-in-one communications solution for gamers. After taking in feedback that were gleaned from a community-based closed beta program, Razer Comms will now see the incorporation of VoIP client, instant messaging and IRC-chat features, where it will enable gamers all over the world to hook up to a single service, all without having to fork out an additional cent. After all, times are hard, and this is another example that there is a free lunch after all. Not only that, Razer Comms also boasts of an in-game overlay that will seamlessly integrate with PC games, delivering uninterrupted gameplay while at the same time typing or talking with friends.

Razer Comms will rely on the implementation of complex audio algorithms as well as an ultra-fast server infrastructure in order to deliver precise, crisp and clear communication without any danger of timeouts or lag spikes. Not only that, it also features advanced noise reduction and echo cancellation, which will definitely be a boon to the millions of PC gamers around the world.

The history of Razer Comms is a rather interesting one, where it came about as an internal project that was built on the spare "10 percent passion time" of a couple of engineers (sounds a bit like Google, no?). After taking in their fair share of fan requests to make it widely available, Razer Comms is now a fully supported project with a specially designated team working on it. Let’s hope that when Razer Comms is no longer in beta, it would be a game changer, pun not intended.

R2-D2 Talking Pizza Cutter

You can say that R2-D2 is the one major Star Wars character who does not have the emotion of a human, and neither does it have the power to manipulate the Force, but it has done more than its fair share in order to make sure the good guys always win, before the Emperor ascended his throne and ruled the galaxy with fear, and after that as he helped out the Rebel Alliance. Well, if there is another thing that R2-D2 might help you in your home would be this – to be able to ensure no fights break out among the family as it goes about its business, cutting your pizza perfectly. After all, how can anyone have anything against the $19.99 R2-D2 Talking Pizza Cutter?

The R2-D2 Talking Pizza Cutter will naturally come with its fair share of sound effects, which means it runs on some sort of power source. Of course, since there are no X-Wings in existence just yet, don't bet on a mini-sized nuclear reactor powering the R2-D2 Talking Pizza Cutter, but rather, it would go around its business thanks to a trio of LR41 cell batteries that were included right out of the box to get you started there and then. For those who are a fan of pizza as well as Star Wars, this is definitely the droid you're looking for!

That too, is something that is being worked on by many people, as just about every modern home in this day and age comes with a Wi-Fi network, in addition to wireless printers, wireless digital cameras, the works. How about ensuring that even the lights in your home are also wireless in nature? This is what the $69.95 Cordless Motion Activated Outdoor Sconce is all about, being a battery-powered outdoor sconce which will deliver automatic nighttime illumination each time it detects the appropriate amount of movement.

The Cordless Motion Activated Outdoor Sconce will come with an integrated motion sensor that has been placed into the bottom of the fixture, where it has a detection range of up to 22′ away and across a 90° angle. This would allow it to initiate illumination well before you approach the light. It would be best to use rechargeable batteries with this household addition, considering how it is powered by a quartet of C batteries. The Cordless Motion Activated Outdoor Sconce can be mounted just about anywhere on a house with the included bracket and hardware, as it does away with the need for hardwiring and proximity to a power outlet. A pair of LEDs are capable of generating a bright white light, and they will remain illuminated for 20 seconds after the sensor detects motion, in addition to carrying a pair of adjustable brightness settings.

iRing Stylus – Say I Do!

 

Almost everything we have these days has a touch screen! My iPhone, tablets, Pods and Pads, they all rely on my fingertips to do the walking. Unfortunately, I also have cold dry little fingers that don’t always seem to work so well with these screens (am I the only one thats had to dampen my fingers and then heat them on my pant leg to get things “swiped”?) Please just say no…  anyway, I also don’t always rock that much accuracy, so I guess that makes me a good candidate for a stylus, but I’d probably lose it, so I have simply been suffering in silence.

Well, I just found an answer to this harrowing dilemma, the iRing Stylus, made of aluminum and rubber, this fashion friendly stylus can be worn on your finger, or a cord around your neck, so you’ll always have it handy. Both elegant and stylish, the iRing is certain to go with whatever you’re wearing and save you from embarrassing capacitive touch screen accidents. So scroll and swipe to your hearts content, and look cool doing it.

There are plenty of apps that actually require a stylus these days, not to mention those “poor connection” days where a stylus is just a nice addition to your electronic arsenal. So if you feel the need to doodle away the days, the iRing Stylus may be for you, or of course the geek gal of your dreams. Get one at amazon.com for only around 13 bucks.
