    It's mid-May -- do you know where your Ice Cream Sandwich

    update is? Six months after Android 4.0 made its debut on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus

    , millions of owners of legacy Android devices are still anxiously awaiting the day the new firmware gets downloaded on their own electronic real estate. At least the scene today is much more pleasant than it was just a few months ago, as ICS is finally rolling out to several popular devices. But if you're shopping for a phone or tablet, how can you possibly keep track of which device has what version?

    Amidst the confusion, we've put together a handy list of the legacy devices that have already been updated to Ice Cream Sandwich, as well as the ones that are promised an upgrade at a future date. Of course, many phones and tablets have ICS ROMs, leaked builds and other unofficial versions of the new firmware available, but we'll only discuss official downloads here. We plan to amend the list as the update rolls out to more devices, so be sure to check back from time to time. Head past the break to see how much of a reach Ice Cream Sandwich has.

  • DirecTV to offer broadband to the boonies, teams up with ViaSat and Hughes Satellite providers

     

    Sure, living in the boonies may give you plenty of space to test out high-tech farming

    equipment

    , but at what cost? Rural homesteads just aren't suited for ye olde landline broadband and those fancy satellite setups cost a pretty penny. DirecTV understands, and has struck deals with ViaSat

    and Hughes

    to bundle their stellar bandwidth

    with pre-existing triple play

    packages to help reign in the cost of high-speed internet. Details on availability and price are still scarce, but DirecTV says customers should be able to take advantage of "certain special offers" later this year. Read on for the official press release, or check out our review of ViaSat's Exede service here

  • This is what native 4K home cinema looks like on Sony's VPL-VW1000ES projector

     

    This is what native 4K home cinema looks like on Sony's VPL-VW1000ES projector

    Why are folks so keyed up about 4K

    ? At first glance, that's the type of question that answers itself: by definition, a 4096-pixel wide image delivers around four times the resolution of 1920 x 1080, and that's a healthy multiple. It's actually of a broadly similar magnitude to the difference between 1080p and old-fashioned analog NTSC video, and nobody these days questions the value of that upgrade. On the other hand, there must come a point where pixels cease to be visible in a home theater environment, such that buying more of them at inflated prices stops being worth it. Sure, 4K can be a big help with 3D footage, because it boosts the resolution to each eye -- something we experienced with the REDray projector

    . But what about regular 2D material, which is still very much the default viewing option? That question's been nagging at us, so when Sony invited us back for a second look at its 4K projector, the VPL-VW1000ES

    , this time with full-throttle native 4K source material rather than just upscaled 1080p, we turned up with a tape measure. Read on for what came next.

    In Insert Coin, we look at an exciting new tech project that requires funding before it can hit production. If you'd like to pitch a project, please send us a tip

    with "Insert Coin" as the subject line.

    that, at the touch of a button, curls up into a wheel and rolls away sounds a bit Robots in Disguise

    , doesn't it? Still, that's what roboticist Toby Baumgartner needs your cold, hard cash to build. Troller 1D is the first prototype of the modular automaton that uses a series of servos to take it anywhere it needs to go -- but it's not ready yet. The project needs $2,600 to get better servos and add some WiFi and Accelerometer features that'll get the 'bot rolling without any assistance. Once perfected, you'll be able to buy a kit with everything you need to build your own and terrify

    the local wildlife / your children.

    NHK makes first successful Super Hi-Vision OTA broadcast, man cave owners giggle with glee

    Fresh off from successfully shrinking

    its Super Hi-Vision camera, Japan's NHK is sticking another feather in its cap -- the first over-the-air broadcast of its super-duper high-resolution technology

    . The broadcaster says it recently managed to send a compressed Super Hi-Vision signal from the roof of its Science and Technology Research Laboratories in Tokyo to a distance about 4.2 kilometers away with no issues. NHK used two UHF channels during the experiment. To optimize and boost transmission capacity, NHK leveraged technologies such as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). Low-density parity check coding was also used for error correction. NHK has been constantly experimenting with its Super Hi-Vision high-resolution (7,680 x 4,320) video format, including a UK-to-Japan broadcast

    via a 24Gb/s internet connection in 2010. Folks who happen to be in Japan from May 24th to 27th can check the tech at the NHK labs' open house in Tokyo's Setagaya ward.

  • Laser-toting MAV can find its way in tight spaces, might eventually hunt you down (video)

     

    Image

    A perpetual weakness of MAVs

    (micro air vehicles) is their frequent need for hand-holding in anything other than a wide-open or very controlled space. If they're not using GPS or motion sensors to find their locations, they can't turn on a dime the way a human pilot would. Adam Bry, Abraham Bachrash and Nicholas Roy from MIT's

    CSAIL group haven't overcome every problem just yet, but they may have taken combat drones

    and other pilotless aircraft a big step forward by giving them the tools needed to fly quickly when positioning isn't an option. Uniting a laser rangefinder with an existing 3D map of the environment -- still 'cheating,' but less dependent -- lets the prototype flyer find the distance to nearby obstacles and steer clear even at speeds that would scare any mere mortal MAV. Ideally, future designs that can create their own maps will be completely independent of humans, making us think that MIT's references to "aggressive" autonomous flight are really cues to start hiding under the bed.

  • Chiba University's one-armed robot juggles balls, is not a Juggalo (video)

     

    Image

    Two balls, one hand? In this case, that's a definite yes, although the end result is much more appropriate for all ages. Furthering our slow creep towards engineering's Uncanny Valley

    , comes a cybernetic effort

    out of Japan's Chiba University that's made to mock our most precious clown-past time: juggling

    . The one-armed, three-fingered robot, shown off at the 2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation

    , utilizes a high-speed camera to track a ball's flight at 500fps and help coordinate its repetitive movements with eerie precision. The current setup's not without hitches, though, considering the bot's fixed shoulder joint can only carry out successful catches on a 2D plane before, quite literally, dropping the ball. Refinements are apparently on the way to expand the cyborg limb's range of motion which, of course, will only serve to defeat us in the end. Robot apocalypse

    , we're looking at you.

As usual, I tried each item on, flung it on the floor after trying them on and then forgot which items I was going to purchase. Eventually, I decided what I was going to keep and what I was going to leave and made my way to the queue at the epos tills. It was even worse than usual.

Some of the reasons why using a reed switch is feasible is because it is small and of convenient size, had low weight but a minimal response period, can be used in more than 45 million operations, and, is cost effective. There are different types of reed switches including Mercury reed switches, High Voltage reed switches, Dry reed switches, and High Power Switch Modules.
