The Unihertz Atom is not a bad deal at $259.99. For people who want less, some of the Unihertz Atom’s shortcomings can be seen as advantages, and not in the silly way other manufacturers disguise mistakes as features.
The barcode scanning case is positioned as a purely retail solution from HP, and I can see it being a useful addition to both the front and back of a store. While it’s not likely to replace dedicated cash registers anytime soon, it could be invaluable for the sort of roving retail employees that help customers while they’re shopping.
Ulefone did not reveal the full design of the Armor 6, but it did share a render in the provided video which kind of reveals what can we expect. It seems like the phone will include a rather wide notch at the top of the display, but its bezels will not be as thick as on some other rugged phones. The device will be made mostly out of metal, but it will offer some other materials to handle drops better, and the company also promises that the phone will be quite grippy. Ulefone says that the Armor 6 will be officially announced in January, but that the initial version will not support 5G. The 5G variant of the phone will go into testing in the second quarter of 2019 in collaboration with China Mobile, so it’s not clear when will it become official.

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.
