As it has appeared, the vice-president of Finnish company Anssi Vanoki at all had no in view of that the given technology all devices will possess. Support NFC will be received only by the smart phones working on the basis of Symbian’4.
Let’s remind that the given technology of wireless high-frequency communication allows to exchange the data between the devices which are on distance about 10 centimetres from each other. Application NFC will allow to use the phone for realisation of mobile payments or as a reading device of the various information, for example, about the goods in shops.
Nokia have started workings out of multimedia information-entertaining system for the car. The new system which has received name Terminal Mode, will combine in itself functions of the smart phone and traditional automobile devices – such, as navigation, intellectual transport system and the electronic assistant to the driver.
As they say in the official press release of company Clarion, Terminal Mode will allow owners of cars to use precisely same Internet services and appendices which are in their smart phone. For example, the owner of the car can get various appendices, music and games through Internet shop Ovi Store.
The manufacturer of audiosystems hopes that the novelty will allow it to be fixed in the markets of Europe, the USA, and also China where phones Nokia use considerable demand.
Date of release of new system yet is not called.
In March, 2010 company Nokia has presented under the same name – Terminal Mode – the system developed together with the manufacturer of electronics – company Alpina. It, unlike the future device, only connected multimedia system and phone. In particular, this system is capable to reproduce music from phone, and also to receive from it signal GPS for navigation system.
Chinese all couple of weeks have shown the first version of the tablet iPed back, the difference on hearing with the American production is not present, it is in a writing. And here the upgrade of it – iPed-M16 has been the day before announced. It also is equipped by the touch screen with a diagonal in 10 inches and the permission in 1024 on 600 pixels, the processor – ARM Cortex A8 has not changed also. But now the device will be on sale or from mobile OS Android, or with Windows CE 6.0. Cost iPed-M16 makes from 300 to 400 dollars that is, of course, cheaper than the American analogue, but now it at least figure of one order.
Within the limits of a forum on satellite navigation «the Naviteh-Expo 2010» in the first day of summer the working copy of the navigator using for definition of position in space domestic satellite system GLONASS for the first time has been presented.
Engineers have done the big work. They could transform the satellite receiver of last generation used only for industrial needs, to the small chip which can be established in pocket devices for simple people. The sizes have decreased with 30х30х3 mm to 9х11х2,5 millimetre (module GPS dimensions 7х8х1,5 mm). Power consumption has fallen from 1 Watt to 0,1 Watts (at GPS – hardly less this value). There Is receiver GLONASS instead of former 2000 of only 450 (GPS – 400 ). The declared accuracy of domestic working out – to 3 m, GРS works on 1 metre more precisely. In general to catch up with America almost it has turned out. It has managed in 7 million dollars, 700-800 thousand euro more it is necessary to spend for device start in commercial operation, Valery Babakov has reported.
However to use GLONASS it is independent in KB “Has hung” while остереглись. In full conformity with ideology of the general director, it has been decided to apply the combined system: besides the Russian companions, the device “sees” also flying machines GPS, Galileo, Compass and SBAS. On the first estimations, total the result of use simultaneously all accessible orbital groupings turns out on 20 % more precisely, than the data of one GPS. Actually, for these of 20 % of the saved up accuracy also it is supposed to take money from the future buyers.
Space-based global navigation system built from satellites can prvide you location and precesion time information independent of weather and in any place of Earth and near space. Best devices for GPS is:
- Garmin Nuvi 1690
- Motorola MotoNav TN765t
- TomTom XL 340 S
- Magellan RoadMate 1470
- Garmin Nuvi 205W
