Exhibition CES 2012: leading trends

Intelligent communication between different devices, water-resistant and 3D printers are equal for all people - are part of the future of technology's next

Your world is about to change. This is indeed a rather vague statement - the world around us changes all the time - but there is no better place at CES, the largest consumer electronics show in the world, to see the variety of ways in which technology will change our agenda in the near future.
Some trends in the exhibition this year are a natural extension of things that we see throughout the years - improving the quality of the screens to natural interfaces - but every show has a few innovations that seemed to appear out of nowhere, the products of scientific developments which have matured at the same time and going to affect us more than you think.

Water resistance will become transparent

Such is, for example, a new sealing technology for gadgets. Two companies presented at CES developments aimed at making our products water-resistant. This special coatings, seal the device or create a body lying on the electronic components through water can not pass. And they are right here, ready for marketing.
It sounds revolutionary today - a simple process that will make all the waterproof gadget. But give it another year - two years, did not remember before cell phones were ruined because of rust and new phones were introduced by YouTube users in the toilet to see how long they go bad. Water resistance becomes transparent for you.

Three-dimensional printer will be affordable

Print you a toy. Three-dimensional printer
Another trend, which would impede a year - two years, she printers three - dimensional. These exist for many years, but only recently began to make cheaper enough for the consumer. Discounter process, both the device and of the materials, was still going on. Had yet to see a printer accessible to the middle class really, but the discounter going faster and faster.
The initial question, "Who needs a three-dimensional printer", disappears when you look at the convenience it is now possible tree, or share designs that are printed. Want a set of chess - a new mate?All you need is a number of models for print, two colors and a few hours (shortened printing time all the time too). Want a new jewelry box? Printer prints. Paperweight? Status of pens? Your character's toy computer game? All these are just the beginning, and in a few years you'll also do you think of the 3D printer to purchase.

Communication between devices will become wisdom

In recent years, our products are starting to talk to each other. The phone talks with TV, talking with your TV, computer talking to us in natural language. But this is only the beginning. At CES this year we're starting to see signs of a more intelligent communications, one who can not only talk to another device, but also what that device and its capabilities are.
Take, for example, new systems for controlling smart home exhibit. The first step is giving the possibility to control the system via mobile phone, and we have seen such systems in recent years. But now we see more sophisticated - using the phone's other capabilities, not only on the screen and Internet connection.
Thus, for example, are now systems that use GPS sensor of the phone to perform operations. You forgot to turn off the lights at home? Do not worry, when the system sees the phones of all household members are outside the region is turn off the light alone. Htkrbtm within a mile from the house on your way home from work? Turn on air conditioning system. And these capabilities will soon become universal.

Three screens - D must improve

Sony was not ashamed of how three-dimensional display that?
Alongside these innovations also have not prevented by creating innovation and technological developments are ripening, but by technology companies will make money. Yes, we're talking about a three - dimensional screens. Time after time we see improvements in the 3D technology - glasses are lighter, brighter screens, attempts to present three dimensional without glasses, and they all have the same problem: It just does not work well.
The problem is that companies - both film companies and monitors companies - betting on 3D as the next big thing. If it were not this bet, Sony would be ashamed to introduce its concepts without glasses 3D screens in the exhibition. They were shocking, viewing angles which were so troublesome in most cases, people simply could not figure out where to stand to see 3D. And Toshiba, among the first three-dimensional display technology without glasses, can not do it effectively.
And three dimensional with the glasses? He still has the same problems. Too dark materials, glasses annoying, and part of the population gets migraines or just do not see the third dimension. But no, they continue, pushing the three-dimensional forward from a marketing standpoint. It seems that in the next CES this just goes on.
