A new outfit by the name of Kiwi Choice gave us such an opportunity recently, and Scosche intros Revive II today it's officially launching the U-Powered USB portable solar charger. Put simply, this here device charger with iPad-optimized folds out into a tri-pointed thingamajig with a trio of solar panels ready and willing to catch sunlight and USB power port store it within. The impatient among us can also juice it up via USB or AC adapter, with a full charge Apr 14th 2010 3:11PM taking at least four hours. The device boasts a power capacity of 2,000mAh, and there's also a magnet for storing it underneath your vehicle's seat or dashboard. Oh, and there's even a LED flashlight on the Apple iPad charging woes: USB front in case of emergency. hubs, non-Macs and weak ports not rejuvenating Apr 3rd 2010 3:14PM The company ships the device with 11 different tips, one of which plays nice with Apple's dock connector. We tested it out on a few obvious candidates, and while it had no issue juicing up our iPhone 3G, the in-house iPad saw the dreaded "Not Charging" logo appear moments after it was connected. The bundle also includes an AC plug and an in-car cigarette adapter for times when the solar charger is pooped, but unfortunately, neither of those options would charge the iPad, either. We will say, however, that it managed to charge every other handheld we had just fine, and while the build quality wasn't ARM: 'Eagle Eye' to follow exactly world class, it's suitable for tossing in the car and having around when energy is needed. It's Cortex-A9, will support Google available today for $49.99 if you're interested.

    World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering Vol:6, No:11, 2012 Tablet Computer as a User Interface: Intelligent Solutions for Multifunctional Hardcopy Devices Jaakko Parviainen, Keijo Haataja, Antti Väänänen, and Pekka Toivanen the market. They have become part of our everyday life and Abstract—Tablet computers and Multifunctional Hardcopy the number of users increases exponentially. In addition, tablet Devices (MHDs) are common devices in daily life. Though, many computers are moderately prized, user-friendly and have an scientific studies have not been published. The tablet computers are extensive assortment of applications. The applications we are straightforward to use whereas the MHDs are comparatively difficult interested in are scanner and printer drivers, and image to use. Thus, to assist different levels of users, we propose combining these two devices to achieve straightforward intelligent user interface processing software [4]. (UI) and versatile What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) In our study the scanning and printing functions require no document management and production. Our approach to this issue is additional software and connections, whereas the copying to design an intelligent user dependent UI for a MHD applying a function does. Our approach to the copying issue is to propose tablet computer. Furthermore, we propose hardware interconnection an intelligent universal What You See Is What You Get and versatile intelligent software between these two devices. In this (WYSIWYG) interface [5] with sophisticated image study, we first provide a state-of-the-art survey on MHDs and tablet computers, and their interconnections. Secondly we provide a processing features.

  • Top 20 Best Tablet PC Ipad Alternatives
    Top 20 best tablet PC iPad alternatives Updated: Looking for the best tablet that's not an iPad? Then try one of these… By James Rivington Page 1: Top 20 best tablet PC iPad alternatives It's an exciting time in the world of the best tablets <> This year is going to be the year of the touchscreen tablet, of that there can be no doubt. While tablet PCs have been around for yonks, only now are they becoming the desirable, usable and functional devices that we've always wanted them to be – and it's about time too. The iPad is currently the most obvious example of how tablets are going mainstream, but that's not to say that all tablets released from now on are guaranteed to be super awesome. Indeed there are some real stinkers out there – remember the Toshiba Folio 100? So allow us to walk you through the best tablets currently on sale, along with the sexy tablets that are set to tickle your fingertips later in 2011. Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 UK release date: October 2010 Specs: Android 2.2, 1 GHz Cortex A8 CPU, 512MB RAM, 16GB/32GB, 7-inch capacitive LCD at 1024x600, 3.2MP rear-facing camera, 1.3MP front-facing camera, phone-call-friendly 3G, 380g. What we think: While the Galaxy Tab promised the world, it didn't quite deliver the tablet experience we were hoping for. As the first big-name tablet to take on the iPad, it failed to live up to its billing.

Collective command and control civil-military operations impose a strong requirement for organizations and people to work collaboratively and to interact with information more efficiently. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) technology has been evolving at a great pace during the last decade, and many novel HCI concepts and tools have become of interest to support not only analysts deployed in command centers but also warfighters deployed in the field. This will have an impact on how intelligence officers will operate in the future. In this regard, Defence R&D Canada has undertaken a major initiative to look forward into Future Intelligence Analysis Capabilities (FIAC). This study reports on HCI trends and applicability to support the FIAC and collective command and control in general. Topics of interest include ubiquitous computing, multimodal interaction, multi-touch tables/surfaces, large group displays, flexible displays, personal device assistants / smart phones, intelligent software assistants, biometry, brain/neural interfaces, collaboration tools / telepresence, smart room environments, head-mounted displays, mixed reality, and advanced HCI concepts and techniques.
