Foldable, Crease-Free AMOLED Display from SAMSUNG  

Posted by Karan Vora

Samsung has succeeded in creating foldable AMOLED displays and showed mankind that the future belongs to non-rigid screens. Samsung Advance Institute Of Technology in South Korea designed & created the first prototype that easily folds in the middle and show no crease even after 1000 attempts. The consumer electronic industry is rapidly advancing towards smaller & flexible devices and there has been a great interest in the development of flexible displays. Researchers have already succeeded in developing displays which can be rolled and bent. Such screen provide the portability factor to large screens. However the biggest problem associated with the flexible displays is the development of crease in the middle. Samsung’s new technology eliminates that problem to a great extent.

Samsung’s researcher said that the displays can soon be commercially produced. The elastic silicone rubber is commercially available for mass consumption by manufacturers. Researchers are now focusing on development of larger foldable displays. Once the technology is fully developed, foldable displays would be integrated in mobile devices, handheld gaming devices, tablet computers and so on.
The future surely is Unexpected!!!

Backup MySQL Database to a file  

Posted by Karan Vora


Backing up your database is a very important system administration task, and should generally be run at scheduled intervals. We will use the mysqldump utility included with mysql to dump the contents of the database to a text file that can be easily re-imported.
Syntax:
mysqldump -h localhost -u root -pmypassword databasename > dumpfile.sql
Example:
mysqldump -h localhost -u root -p2Uad7as9 database001 > dumpfile.sql
This will give you a text file containing all the commands required to recreate the database.

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich  

Posted by Karan Vora

Android 4.0 (or maybe 2.4 or 3.4, who knows) Ice Cream Sandwich was announced at Google's I/O event earlier this year. Google suggested it would become the standard platform across all android devices regardless of whether it's a tablet or phone. Most devices will get the update eventually to create a sense of high standard.

Features:
  • Which Phone is most likely to get it?
Many people have rumored that the Nexus 3 will ship with the latest version of Android which is Ice Cream Sandwich. Reports also suggest that HTC will be the manufacturer of the phone although this has not been confirmed yet.
  • USB Hosting
It is understood that Android 4.0 will bring about USB Hosting which will allow you to use practically any device with the tablet ranging from an x-box controller for games to a keyboard/mouse for surfing and other things. You will also have the ability to integrate a USB device to work specifically with an app. So a heart monitor used with a fitness app, for example.
  • Tracks Your Face
Android 4.0 wil have the ability to track your face so instead of you trying to move around to get into the camera, the camera will auto-focus on to you instead. It will also be handy in video conferencing because the camera will move to you when you begin speaking and then move to whoever speaks so you don't waste time trying to move your phone or tablet every time the you want to focus it on someone in particular.

Tell us what you think?
