Solar-powered Toothbrush

It’s something which has become part and parcel of our lives. As we get up in the morning the first thing most of the people do in this world is to brush there teeth with a toothbrush. Why I am paying emphasis on toothbrush is that this post is also about a tooth brush which is been powered by solar energy.

You have heard of the various devices and the gadgets that have been designed for using the solar energy, which is a renewable source of energy. Here is another product in this category.

As you know that Japan is well known for bringing up with something, which is new to the world. So it is! Here they are back with something really exciting for those who really care for the future.

solar-toothbrush.JPG Japan-based Shiken has unveiled Soladey-J3X, a solar-powered toothbrush. It contains a moisture activated titanium dioxide rod in the neck, which works by creating a chemical reaction when the light hits the rod. When the light hits the rod it releases electrons which combine with acids in the mouth to help break down plaque.

The Soladey-J3X has a solar panel at its base, which transmits additional electrons through a lead wire. The toothbrush doesn’t use toothpaste, but does lead to a “destruction of bacterial cells”.

iPhone - Review

apple-iphone-specs.jpgSo, after the launch of the new Apple iPhone at Macworld 2007. The new technologies have made this device available. There is a great hype for iPhones. I am trying to write a congenial review about the newly launched Apple iPhone, there are severals features which make iPhone a unique.
apple_iphone_zoom1.jpgThe iPhone has been good or I say upto the expectation in the following features:
iPhone has a pretty good reception quality, voice quality and it also have good call volume. It comes with a stereo ear buds with an integrated mic, which can serve the purposes like answering a call, rejecting,advance to next song in the play list. There is a new “pinch” feature which enables you to just zoom in or out just at the tap of your finger. Now, Apple is known for its UI, so they have provide with direct buttons for Home, volume, ringer silence and sleep/power off.

    Bluetooth

It has a very efficient blue tooth, Can you imagine that you are in the car and you can call from your radio of the car and even play song on your car music player from your iPhone, this all can be done with the iPhone.

    Visual Voice Mail

This facility has been made possible with the collaboration of Apple and AT&T. It helps you see the list of the voice mails and you can navigate to which ever mail first according to you.

    iPod

The main feature of the iPhone is the iPod, you can play the songs that are downloaded as the iTunes and so make your music mood pleasant.

    Camera

Apple iPhone comes with a 2 mega pixel built in camera, and the photos are stored in the iPhone’s Flash memory.

    Web Browsing - Safari

This facility offers you a great speed and access to web browing which will make your work much faster.
Features that require improvements in the iPhone:
iPhone does not have a copy paste option in it,

    Virtual Keypad

When it comes to the business and PDA users it is the most irritating factor which is in the debate for the success of the iPhone. The user may find it difficult to cope up with this as the text is typed only when you lift your finger form the keypad. One more thing is that the keypad always type the text in uppercase even if you are writing in the lower case.
The iPhone comes with only 25 different ring tones built in it out of which some are not loud enough to set it as ring tones.
In camera there is no flash, no zoom and no settings.

    The Bottom line

As a average person I will rate the iPhone 7.5/10. But Apple has tried a great effort to bring a new technology in the market.

Difference between a Digital and Normal Film Camera…

Hey guys! Here you will have an exclusive details of digital cameras.
From the various Electronic Gadgets available in the market, cameras are in greats demands.
Actually, I had a normal film camera since last month but I was not happy with its picture quality and the changing of the film every now and then. But now as I own a digital camera I am quiet happy with its performance and picture quality. I have a Sony 7.2 Mega pixel DSC S650, most of the people might get confused with the word pixel and its importance.
00ctsw-24008284.gifNormal Film Camera detects the points of light and record it by a grain of chemical material that is light sensitive, this material is processed and we get the copies there is no extra features with it. Whereas in a Digital Camera its totally different functioning, it detects the points of light and assign a value representing color and intensity, these collection of pixels is saved to some kind of electronic media which is normally a memory card for digital cameras whereas for Handy Cam it can be magnetic or optical disk.
ic_camera1_narrowweb__300x4060.jpgDigital Camera has several distinct advantages over a normal Film Camera, as such is that digital camera doesn’t require a film for its working where in it uses a memory card to store the photos. The memory card can store as many as photos you like and also provides you the facility of deleting the unnecessary photos. Most of the digital cameras has LCD Display on it which enables you to see the photo instantly and you can delete it if not require. The one think that bothers the Digital Cameras is their Resolution, a 35mm film-based camera is much better than any digital camera of good pixels in resolution. But, the color balance under mixed light and the brightest highlights and darkest shadows of a scene can be obtained by a Digital Camera only. So a digital camera is far much better then a film camera.
With the Digital Photography Technique you can do whatever you want with your photos. There are many Photo Editing Softwares like Adobe Photshop, Piccassa, Pinnacle etc, using them you can edit your photos as you like with the different options in these softwares. Now in the markets there are wide range and comprehensive models of digital cameras by companies like Canon, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic,Kyocera,Olympus, Pentax and many more.
