Android O : Oreo ??

                            ANDROID OREO update



Android O is shaping up to be exactly what Android needs

Android O, version has plenty of changes in store, ranging from revamped looks to under-the-hood improvements, so there's tons of cool new stuff to explore.

Features*:                   
Notifications are getting another dose of refinement:

What if we get rid of some unwanted notifications, isn’t it cool?? Well, this feature is great if you get a ton of notifications from a specific app, as you can mute notifications for a specific amount of time without setting your phone to "Do Not Disturb" mode where you can miss other notifications you might want.

Battery-Saving Background Restrictions:

Believe it or not, Android O might finally fix issues with standby battery drain. Doze Mode helped quite a bit in this regard when it was introduced with Marshmallow, then improved upon with Nougat. But now, Google's tightening the reins on actions that apps can perform in the background. so it seems Google is really starting to crack down on rogue battery drainers.

Save time with auto Fill Framework:

If you have ever used apps like LastPass, DashLane, 1Password then you have seen auto filling in action.Setting up a new Android device will now be easier with Autofill with Google. If you have saved your password in Chrome for a website (say Twitter), when you open the Twitter app on your new Android device all you need to do is type in your username and the password will be auto filled.

Keyboard navigation:

Android on Chromebooks means we need a better way to use all the features of an app through the keyboard and mouse. Android O focuses on building a better model for arrow and tab key navigation. This is one of those things that are both better and easier for developers and end users.

Connectivity:

Android O brings some changes to the way our devices communicate with other devices.
High-quality Bluetooth audio through the Sony LDAC codec. Your favorite songs will sound even better through Bluetooth connections. The latest developer preview also has support for the AptX codec, so music through Bluetooth can sound better than ever. Devices with supported hardware can communicate with each other using Wi-Fi without a central access point.

WebView enhancements:

Android O enables the multiprocess mode for WebView components from Nougat as the default and adds an API so that developers can handle their own errors and crashes.

This makes applications that use web development languages better stability and security, and users will benefit if developers enable Google Safe Browsing for remote URLs.



 List of Phones that will support Android O in India:-
Ø Samsung
Ø Xiaomi
Ø Motorola
Ø Lenovo
Ø HTC

So, this will be really great update since Android O includes a variety of features and API behavior updates.

Google ALLO & Google DUO

Google has Recently Launched DUO and will soon be releasing ALLO.So what is ALLO and DUO ????

Google ALLO

ALLO IS SMART FAST AND SECURE.
Google ALLO is a A.I(Artificial Intelligence) powered messaging app that makes conversations easier, more productive, and more expressive.

Features :

The Google assistant
Google is introducing this feature in ALLO.

This thing gives you the richness of the Google.It will provide you answers, information, and get your things done without having to leave your conversation.

Smart Reply
Respond to messages without typing a single word. ALLO will learn overtime from your inbox and suggest you some replies while having conversation.Suggested responses will be in your style. It responds to text and photos to help you keep the conversation going.

Ink
Get creative with the photos you send by doodling on them.With this you can edit your photos while sending .

Whisper Shout
No more TYPING IN ALL CAPS to get your point across. Say it louder or quieter by changing the size of your text with a quick swipe.


Stickers
Say what you really mean with exclusive stickers designed by independent artists and studios from around the world.

Incognito mode
1.Chats in Incognito mode are E2E(End-to-End) Encrypted.
So what is E2E Encryption ??
E2E Encryption basically means that only the sender and the receiver can read the messages.It prevents potential eavesdroppers – including telecoms providersInternet providers, and even the provider of the communication service – from being able to access the cryptographic keys needed to decrypt the conversation. This system is designed to defeat any attempts of tampering because no third parties can decipher the data being communicated or stored. 
For example, companies that use end-to-end encryption are unable to hand over texts of their customers' messages to the authorities.
2.Private Notifications:- ALLO gives the user discrete notifications i.e by hiding sender and message contents.
3.Expiring Chats:-ALLO provides a way to delete incognito chats or conversations. Its similar to chrome , when you close an incognito window all history and cookies related to it are deleted.And the chats are deleted permanently.

*Data charges may apply. Check your carrier for details.

What was Google ARA ?

Technologies are developing day by day & many of the us are trying to keep their Smartphones up-to date. Software update can be done easily. But when it comes to hardware updates then it becomes impossible .Now here comes Google Project ARA !

What is Project ARA ?

Project ARA is a modular Smartphone.

The concept is simple: treat a phone like it is a lego toy. Assemble the phone according to the parts you need enhanced.LEGO-style bricks that could be attached, rearranged, and swapped out in seconds.

This Smartphone will have all the functionalities with six flexible slots which are called as ARA Frames. There will be different ARA Modules which will be placed in these frames. Different ARA Modules Like


  • Camera
  • Speaker
  • Battery
  • Mobile Stand
  • CPU
  • GPU
  • Sensors
  • Display
  • Fingerprint Scanner
  • And many more.



Using these different modules create your own smartphone according to your needs.
The ARA frame is built in with durable latches and connectors which keep the modules safe ,intact and secure.
Plucking the module and inserting another module is very easy .

For instance 
If you are a photographer, you could focus on upgrading your camera or lens.
If you are a music lover, you can aim for better speakers and audio quality or longer-lasting batteries for uninterrupted listening time.
If you are a traveller, you can go for compass which will enhance Google maps.

So Instead of buying a phone that may not have the feature you are interested in most, have more control with a Project Ara phone.

Project Ara not only lets you “upgrade” the hardware you need most, it also ensures that you don’t have to change your whole smartphone just because one part is broken, which is essentially what forces most of us to change our phones in the first place anyways






Recent News says that

Google has Cancelled this project !!!!!!!

The developer version of this project was going to be launched in this september .But now nothing !!!

So what do you think about this project ? And will it be again started in future ?

Li-Fi

Li-Fi : "Future Of Wireless Networks"*





Introduction:

Hello, Friends as we promised to bring a new technology in depth for you, which could change the world. So, its  Li-Fi(Light Fidelity) which could soon replace Wi-Fi  or will work with Wi-Fi in recent years*.

I can pretty understand that it may be an "Ultra Shock" for you  all to hear some replacement for our Life-Saver "Wi-Fi" :p :)
So, Now we will see Li-Fi in details.

What is Li-Fi?

Light Fidelity or Li-Fi is like a Visible Light Communications (VLC) system running wireless communications travelling at very high speeds.
Li-Fi uses common household LED (light emitting diodes) lightbulbs to enable data transfer, boasting speeds of up to 224 gigabits per second.
The term Li-Fi was coined by University of Edinburgh Professor Harald Haas . Haas envisioned light bulbs that could act as wireless routers.
What a marvelous invention this is!!!! Just imagine how great it would be to download 18 movies of 1.5 GB each in just one second.


How Li-Fi creates Communication?

This Optical Wireless Communications(OWC) technology uses light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a medium to deliver networked, mobile, high-speed communication in a similar manner to Wi-Fi.


Visible light communications (VLC) works by switching the current to the LEDs off and on at a very high rate, too quick to be noticed by the human eye.
Also,multi-colored RGB (Red/Green/Blue) LED's at retina size could be engineered to send and receive a wider range of signals than single-colored phosphor-coated white LED's


Working of Li-Fi:

A LED lighting fixture encodes and modulate the streaming content or message data from Internet or Server as light output with rapid rate of switching current(naked to human eye) to a receiving photo detector, which converts the changes in light intensity to electrical current.
In turn, the electrical signal is converted into binary data stream and then it is sent to any device like laptops, mobiles connected to the system.
However, working of Li-fi based system is purely dependent on Receiver dongle.
As Li-Fi is still in research phase so many new things could rise up to increase the capability and efficiency of Li-fi.

Implementation Of Li-Fi:


Li-fi based Commercial Office

Advantages of Li-Fi:

  • Lab tests have shown that Li-Fi can hit speeds 100 times faster than current Wi-Fi systems which uses radio waves to transmit data.
  • The system uses visible light communication between 400 and 800 terahertz to transmit messages in binary code. 
  • Visible light cannot pass through walls, making Li-Fi a much more secure system, and less susceptible to interference.
  •  Useful in electromagnetic sensitive areas such as in aircraft  cabins, hospitals and nuclear power plants without causing electromagnetic interference.
    So Friends in Future if 15 millions LED or Illumination Device  is enabled with Li-Fi microchip then we would not only have LED's but also Li-Fi deployed for cleaner, greener and eco-friendly environment where we can live happily and with all data access in our  hand with tremendous speed.


How tremendous we are achieving things which we only dreamt in Past..
