Human moves + Computer process = true interaction

Is interesting to see how the things are going right now, in the technology we can see that the companies are trying to find a new way to explode all their hardware & software to make things better, faster and more impressive to people.

Before, was impressive to see a mouse or a USB keyboard, good, functional and easy to use, BUT, Right now, in everything, like music, lamps, telephone, videogames, computer accessories, etc are using inalambric technology, NO CABLES, why? It’s simple, cables are in some way, frustrating to people, nobody like to hide cables on the back of the roof, or have the need to pick them up every time, so, we use inalambric technology in life right now.

The other day, I saw on wired a cool technology that helps you to use the computer only with two gloves, everything was made with the hands of the user making the things a little more interesting that inalambric stuff, think about it, maybe someday we would be able to use a computer like tony stark of iron man moving everything with the hands on the air xD.

It’s curious, that when I was reading that article, I remember the videogames that exist right now, wii uses inalambric controls that are used with the movement of the user, and it’s funny to see that PS3 is making a project called, PlayStationMove that do the same thing that el wii, interaction with people with the videogames in different way, and finally, XBOX360, using a project called natal project that in theory, use a full body interactive reaction, In my opinion, I am not sure if the last really could be possible right now, but I am sure about something, the things are changing faster, and I am very excited to see all the things that I could be able to do with it.

Touch Screen = future

Hello again! The other day I saw something interesting on the internet that I Decided talk about it on the blog, the topic is about how the technology is changing little by little and improving in different ways.

It’s interesting to see that some people are working about how to use the things that in one way or another we have to make the things easier than expected, Jeff Han is a guy who made an interactive software using the technology of touchcreen, making different kinds of applications that could be used in different areas, from drawing to exploring around the world like a map using only our fingers to make the magic happens.

It’s pretty cool to see a digital keyboard, not only because it looks well, it help to see a future that we no longer will use keyboards or mousses while we use computers, everything would be different and not difficult, in my own opinion Didn’t saw that Jeff Han had problems using the software, it was like something nature to our hands, something logical and funny.

It’s a perfect example to show us how the things can change in companies, hospitals, museums, schools tomorrow and the next week isn’t it?

Ipad = magazine?

One of the things that I found interesting in the Ipad is the way that can be used with a magazine, there is a good point in the use of the Ipad because can help very well to the world, thousands of paper are used to print every one magazine in the world, maybe in the future the newspaper and all the magazines could be here anymore thanks for this kind of technology, that could be pretty cool because is a perfect way to protect our world using less, a lot less paper than these days.

For example, the magazines in the Ipad can show pictures in High resolution; change the size of the type to make the reading easier, and show different kind of details that in printed form would be so interactive.

In the Ipad depends of the way that you are using it, in horizontal is shown content and in vertical other ones, an interesting way to show information isn’t it? Never mind, there is a problem there, sometimes some details are erased depending of the way that you are watching the magazine.

In my opinion, the only thing that I liked about this is the dream to see a world using less... much less paper or other things in our world with the help of this kind of technology.

what do you think?

Flash & HTML true objetive




Technology is future, from the beginning companies exist to improve and make the things better, prettier, faster and cheaper, the internet is something that changed the world forever and ever, nobody know what would happened if it wouldn’t be created.

There are several things that make the internet something interesting and a good way to improve us, content rich. Interactivity, applications, and that could be something independent.

In the beginning, everything was made by flash, something created for animations, time passed and it evolves to create something bigger, a creator of multimedia that contained text, sound, music, video, images and everything! Creating good web pages with a lot of interactivity making the new web experience.

Time after that, appears HTML, that emerge in competition with flash to make the same things, build applications and web pages with interaction, in the same time appears the flash player that made a lot of companies arise like the famous YouTube that show millions of videos in flash player, something new was created.

Every company try to develop things that are original that makes something important in the life, every one of them try to accomplish something, a mission, like apple with applications, Google with research, adobe with developers platforms or windows in the business. Obviously making the things to improve.

Today companies and web pages can be created using both platforms, HTML & Flash to make something new, interesting and better that if they were created by only one, I think that is the thing that are required right now.

In the end, the only thing that matters are the experience that the people live when they visit a page, in my opinion, HTML & Flash wouldn’t be able to kill each other, they really were created to work together, maybe HTML are best in some things, or FLASH in other ones, but in the end, making use of both are the best answer.
Long live to HTML & FLASH
