Technology was always developing because the customer wants somebody or something to do its work, therefore the progress cannot be stopped unless the customer does nothing at all! So this deal should also satisfy every common user, who doesn’t like to collect the dust on his own.
A new vacuum cleaner differs from his competitors by quality, meanwhile not being so expensive, as the previous version of Dyson from 2001. It actually didn’t start due to high weight of the machine and too sophisticated technique to run. It required three computers in apartment and would cost thousands of dollars, therefore the project was closed hoping for future reincarnation.
And the time has come for the people to see a really useful droid cleaning your room. It has 360 degree camera and infrared sensor to actually “feel” itself in the room and avoid collision with any big or small obstacle on the way of cleaning.
The battery cannot boast with long life endurance, but this is quite acceptable comparing with the cleaning quality it performs. Fully charged the vacuum machine can clean the space for 20 minutes and then it returns to the charging station to restore its power.
Dyson has invested $8 million to start this project, so there is no doubt it will be 20 times more useful than the other imitators cleaning the floor awkwardly. Having such a start the robot is designed to reach every surface a regular vacuum cleaner does. It can simply ride through every rough terrain, such as thresholds and other bumps met.
Another function available is connecting the device to your smartphone or tablet running iOS or Android in order to monitor the robot’s mapping during the cleaning procedure, letting you know its strategy and efficiency.
The dirt restrainer will show its muscles to the Japanese publicity next Spring, and the rest of the world will try to touch them later in 2015.

Forget about the FullHD once and for all. The time of rough technologies, such as 1920×1080 resolution has already passed just as the black and white displays did. 4K is replacing the old formats, after which we can only expect the 8K picture quality and holograms for all kinds of video streaming.
Hatsune Miku is an outstanding example of the far away future that lies before us, as the presence effect will not be required to be created artificially, as the physical presence will be actual. Speaking about today we can observe that a lot of small video cameras have acquired ultra-high video quality content generating abilities, for example GoPro Hero 4 has already obtained 4K video recording quality with no bug shots or other inaccuracies on the run. But not all of the video output devices can extract the same video quality on the screen. It makes your mind blow when looking at the really expensive segment of TV sets, while the monitors have significantly dropped behind due to shortage of inches through the diagonal. But now it’s over and LG 31MU97 Display Cinema 4K monitor will prove it.
Another raid in 4K sector is made by LG having enough of experience in this sphere. This monitor was spotted at the exhibition in Berlin. Now it is ready to be part of the desktop of each professional designer, cinema fan or gamer, if the PC allows to play at such high resolution. The top-priority issue is the PC power, which outlines the limits of the video picture on the screen. Almost every computer today can produce the picture on the 4K quality display, but playing on high specs requires extra power, which may be solved soon enough, when the cheaper graphics chipsets appear on the market. Anyway you will have the 4K standard at you home sooner or later.
Nowadays everywhere an ultra-high video quality appears and stops to be only a specialized tool for video decoders or graphic editors and more people now can enjoy this all day long. As the American wisdom says, if it's available, why not to have it? The 4K panel with a resolution 4096x2160 pixels will suit everybody, moreover there's an additional advantage comparing to other models on the market - IPS Digital Cinema display, which supports 99.5 percent of the Adobe RGB color space and two different color modes allowing you to compare images in two different color schemes. The starter kit also includes True Color Pro software pack from LG to ease the process of color calibration using the hardware.
LG 31MU97 4К monitor will go on the world tour starting from US, South Korea, Germany, Australia and Great Britain this week and will get to Netherlands, Spain, Poland and Japan only a month later. So there is still time to look around and search for other 4K monitors coming up if you are really interested to get yourself a new acquisition on the desktop. The price tag is still unrevealed. But don't expect the devaluation of the product keeping in mind the variety of the functions and superb video quality on the screen. As there's always a buyer for the realistic quality, not eager to overpay for the abstract stuff.

Get ready to immerse into the new reality professionally designed for your home entertainment from Sony. Project Morpheus, which is planned to suit your PS4 device, will let you taste a piece of reality in a virtual world.
The prototype was already introduced to the attendees, who had an opportunity to be the first to try demo games for the headset, such as “Eve: Valkyrie”, the space simulator, Deep Sea simulator and few others. By their words, the feelings are awesome and cannot be compared at all to previous versions of headsets.
If you look at the prototype you can understand that the design is incredibly futuristic and amazing, but nevertheless the creators stipulate that it will modified in order to have even better performance and look. As you could notice the LED glow on the edges of the mask makes a real flash-forward with your mind. It is clearly seen for the moment that the Sony’s creation looks much more completed and unique than the hotfoot Oculus Rift, which is already on sale, by the way.
The display of Project Morpheus is 90 degrees wide comparing to Oculus VR, which has 110 degrees of sight range, but nevertheless when immersing into the game such details have no sense for your peripheral vision, as the first players affirm. Also both devices have 1080p HD quality video, which is by the way claimed to be insignificant for fabulous emotions while playing, though as Oculus has already released, Sony has some time to upgrade their Project’s specs.
As Facebook has started to support Oculus VR, we might see some interesting games made for Windows, but it is not a big secret that Sony is more powerful platform for video games than the social network is. Sony can already boast with more features, such as DualShock and PlayStation move controllers having a better physical performance for the player. Furthermore there’s a speed-racing game, which requires a player only to lie on the bed and nod the head with no other controllers involved. Morpheus also comes with a new 3D audio technology that re-creates stereoscopic sounds in all directions and adapts depending on your head position.
So here’s what we see at the moment: Oculus has a first–go advantage and Sony has an opportunity to outrace the beginner. But thanks to Facebook’s continuous patronage the eventual result may be opposite, if more innovative and interactive games will be created for Oculus VR headset in the nearest future. And for the moment we can see such opportunity in their hands, as the release date of Sony’s device and the price it might sell for is still unknown. But most probably we should aim for 2015!
