A smartphone that has a toxic gas detector
A smart phone that detects toxic chemicals in the air has been developed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate. The phone contains an inexpensive sensor that has the ability to alert either the cellphone user of an imminent threat or a central station that can track alerts from multiple users.
US Department of Homeland Security is working with NASA and two private companies, Qualcomm and Technology Rhevision for prototype development. But it will still take several years before the device will be available in the market.
I want a washable computer now... :D
More seriously, do we really need all of this? Idon't think so...
:))) I want that too! :))
I don't know if we really need all this, but maybe for other is good. People want to be different and have different things no matter what.
Just a washable tablet will do or a laptop.
A washable desktop is too much trouble.:-)
Oh I agree since I use my laptop a lot!
I don't have any desktop anymore. Only laptops and super clusters ;)
@the-future i think its cool cause then we could use it to take pics in the lake ? or submersion isn't advisable? You're very resourceful and obviously, you're really doing your homework aren't you ?
but would I want one? No - my phones are perfectly working I already have 2 one is not even a smartphone and still working fine - can you imagine how old it is already - I guess the technology industry is also trying to keep ripping us off with many gimmicks - buy buy buy and get flashy - show off and be broke - I used to run in the rat race till I found out - it is better to simplify and live life simply. Had hub's phone speaker lasted longer - he wouldn't have bought the Samsung G A5 and I wouldn't have my A3 - which I got as a freebie for him buying that A5 - I would want a camera that can survive in the H2) though - I need it :)
Yes, I was into that run before, but now I don't really care so much. I use what I have and I'm happy with what I have for now. I was looking at your post right now to see the winners and congratulate them. I forgot to join in this contest, but maybe next time. I keep saying next time, but I have to do it at least one time right? There are too many things to do right now and I can't keep up with all of them.
@the-future no worries - just know you're always welcome so if you ever find time - just know you are always welcome and whether you promised or not I can't really remember all of it - I go around pretty much - it's hard to remember everything so - you may always join - when you can :)
I understand that and I know that you might not remember everything, but I do remember what I said and I have to do it. Not only because I said that, but for the competition and also for me. I like competition :D
@the-future okay then - just do it :P
hahaha when you can :)
