Find my Phone is a 30 minute film about a stolen phone. The filmmaker, Anthony van der Meer, rigged an Android cellphone with Cerebus, a command-and-control system for Android that can survive a memory wipe. The app allowed van der Meer to record video, take photos, and even listen in on calls – all while tracking the phone around Amsterdam. Van der Meer pieced together a life out of fragments of the thief’s life and, when he finally faced the thief, he pulled back into anonymity, letting the phone go.

Hands-On With The Nexus 6 And Android Lollipop

Smack dab in the middle of last week, Google announced two new pieces of shiny: the Nexus 6 phone, and the Nexus 9 tablet.

Alas, both announcements came by way of blog post, rather than the standard fanfare-filled physical event — meaning no one actually got to touch the devices.

Until now!

While the amount of time I got to spend with each device is by no means enough for a full review, it was enough for those oh-so-important first impressions.

Tim Cook Says iPad Sales Slump is a 'Speed Bump'

Apple's iPad sales have fallen in the past three quarters — but CEO Tim Cook doesn't see that as a sign that the product line is doomed.

"To me, I view it as a speed bump, not a huge issue," Cook said during a fiscal 2014 fourth-quarter call with analysts on Monday.

Cook pointed out that if you compare fiscal 2014 iPad sales with those from fiscal 2013, sales are only down 4%. "That said, we want to grow," Cook said. "We don't like negative numbers on these things."

Indian teen makes device to turn breath into words, enters Google science fair

GURGAON: Arsh Shah Dilbagi, a 16-year-old from Panipat, has entered the Google's Global Science Fair as the only finalist from Asia this year for developing a device that helps people with developmental disabilities, like Locked-In Syndrome and ALS, communicate, using only their breath.

The device, called 'TALK', uses signals from a person's breath via Morse code, picked up by a sensor, and then converts them into speech. Dilbagi, a student of DAV International School, Panipat, says the device even allows almost entirely speech impaired and paralyzed people to communicate like never before.

Claiming to have built the world's fastest and cheapest Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) device, a kind used by physicist Stephen Hawking, Dilbagi says it is not possible for all those who have motor-neuro disabilities to afford an AAC device that costs $7,000 (Rs 4.26 lakh).

"AAC devices available in the market are very expensive, slow, bulky and not generic. I decided to find a better solution — an AAC device which is faster, portable and generic and costs only $80 (Rs 5000), making it affordable to the large population," he explains.

The young innovator says that TALK expects a person to be able to give two distinguishable exhales with varying intensities, for converting them into electrical signals using a microphone. The signals are processed by a microprocessor, called the 'Morse engine', which labels the short exhales as 'dots' and longer exhales as 'dashes'. These are further interpreted through the Morse code which converts the signals into words and then sends them to another microprocessor for synthesizing them into voice. According to Dilbagi, TALK features two modes - one to communicate in English, and the other to give specific commands and phrases. These are communicated in nine different voices enabled according to gender and age.

Making two major breakthroughs; increasing the speaking rate, and becoming the world's most affordable AAC device, TALK has landed the young prodigy as the only finalist from Asia in Google's Science Fair Challenge.

"I even got predicted results by testing the device on a person suffering from encephalopathy (global brain dysfunction) and Parkinson's disease," he has claimed in his proposal to Google.

He adds, "In future, I would like to add auto-predictions to my computing engine and integrate TALK with modern technology like Google Glass to make it easier for people with development disabilities."

Dilbagi's father, Amit, said, that since childhood his son had dreamt of doing something meaningful for mankind.

"His attention has always been towards applied science projects. I will request Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union health minister Harshvardhan to consider this project for the countless people in need for such a device in our country," he told TOI.
