Aware2 camera that takes photos with 300 MP, enters testing phase

aware2An American company called Aqueti, has a project somewhat challenging to develop a camera with a resolution of 300 megapixels. For this, together with a 160 micro cameras 14 megapixel sensor. Each can capture 2.24 gigapixel images in RAW mode. Then they are grouped into a smaller picture.
The photos have a panoramic effect similar to the human eye, but with the ability to zoom like a telephoto lens. The camera still faces some problems in exposure time and focus, but its creators say the quality is similar to DSLRs found in the market.

The prototype Aware2 weighs 24 kg and was recently used in testing during the anniversary of the town of Edenton, North Carolina.
According to Aqueti, the next models will have approximately one third the size of the prototype, but it is still high price - comparable to a television camera. The company believes that they will be hired to cover events and special celebrations.

LG’s first flexible OLED phone due before the year is out

LG plans to launch a flexible OLED smartphone before the end of the year, the company’s VP of mobile has confirmed, though it’s unclear to what extent the work-in-progress handset will actually flex.

Users can grab the updates now by heading into the Windows Store and selecting the updates notification.
Flexible displays are the Future of IT Industry! A part from 4k and smart home appliances, the CES 2013 saw a lot of attention being drawn towards bendable, flexible displays. The elasticised display idea isn’t something new as we have seen hoards of device concepts being crafted around flexible, bendable and even foldable displays. These concept devices give us a futuristic feel, be it a flexible phone to be worn around the wrist or a phone that opens up to turn into a tablet or PSP-like device. But how far is this future? Nokia has been toying with the idea ever since we remember. The technology sounds very fascinating and the possibilities and the extent to which bendable displays could be used are vast and leave us spellbound. However, these have always been concepts and we haven’t seen any device materialise in the real world. There have been several technologies that were conceived in these years and all have been put to their practical use. But the bendable d
