One of the most significant advantages of augmented reality in the supply chain is its use in training. New hires can often have a hard time finding their way through labyrinthian warehouses and locating products. AR can overlay lined paths to guide new hires exactly where they need to go. Boeing mechanics are known to use Google Glass while assembling airplane wiring so they have diagrams readily available without having to consult papers or mobile devices.

Overall, given the cost of this phone, the features present are above and beyond what we’d expect, and make for a generally serviceable device that should have a decent lifespan if not flagrantly abused.

With extra background processes, the Kong 3 is responsive and fluid, suggesting that the Cubot software developers finished this design some time ago, and were able to fine-tune it for optimal performance.

de Cosson opts for a handheld white structured light scanner for lower-resolution scans of objects that are larger than a cubic foot, yet smaller than unwieldy parts like a door panel. Like other structured light systems, the handheld device rapidly flashes a known pattern using white LEDs across the object’s surface; depth and surface information is calculated based on how the pattern deforms over the object’s surface and is stored as a point cloud. After post-processing, the model can be exported as an STL or another similar file type. The end result is a quick, relatively inexpensive scan. Garant has the Artec Eva, which features a scanning resolution up to 500 microns and a 3D point accuracy of 100 microns.

Some of the apps I use most that aren’t available? GIMP, QuickBooks, LibreOffice, Reaper, Handbrake, and Notepad++ (although there is an unofficial, open source fork of that last one).

Currently buyers say their top considerations when purchasing mobile devices for their workforce are cost (72%) and life expectancy of the product (54%). Yet the majority of buyers still expect to replace their mobile workforces’ devices every 2-3 years.

Cell phones are a major temptation for distracted drivers. But other things distract us from the road including eating, drinking, smoking, putting on makeup, adjusting the radio and more. BrianAJackson, Getty Images/iStockphoto(Photo: BrianAJackson, BrianAJackson, Getty Images/iSto)

Currently, the iQ is selling only in the U.S. But Butterfly Network is in talks with nonprofits, such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, to bring it to the developing world. In many remote areas, clinicians don’t have access to ultrasound technologies that can be used to, say, detect fetal health issues that cause women to die in childbirth.

Asus says you should be able to get up to 22 hours of continuous battery life from the Asus NovaGo (if you’re using it for video playback with the wireless radios turned off).
