Glass-maker Corning has unveiled a new version of its Gorilla Glass used in the majority of smartphone displays, which it says is twice as likely to survive being dropped. As phones get bigger, and come with glass on the back as well as the front, the potential for smashed devices has increased. While cases have helped, even heavily protected phone screens still end up shattered from impact and then stress from being bent, squeezed or bumped in a pocket or bag. Gorilla Glass 6 is a new chemically strengthened and highly compressed glass that Corning says has twice the drop protection of its Gorilla Glass 5. “With breaks during drops being a probabilistic event, the added compression helps increase, on average, the likelihood of survival through multiple drop events,” said Dr Jaymin Amin, vice president of technology and product development at Corning. The new glass survived an average of 15 drops from 1m on to rough surfaces in lab tests compared to 11 for the previous version, meaning it should be more resistant to multiple drops. “Gorilla Glass 6 improves upon Gorilla Glass 5 by surviving drops from higher heights, but, more importantly, has been engineered to survive multiple drops,” said John Bayne, vice president and general manager for Corning Gorilla Glass.

Impresionantes invenciones que ya están a la vuelta de la esquina.

When you roll your future TV out of sight into a little box, thank LG Display. (Well they had the competitive help of Samsung also going after this, and both of these companies use TRIZ to come up with these systems - too bad other companies aren't savvy in this way as they too could bring awesome new designs to the world). The leader in big-screen OLED manufacturing, not satisfied to debut the first 88-inch 8K OLED TV, will show off another world's first at CES: a 65-inch 4K OLED display that's, get this, rollable. Although some concept big-screen TVs shown at past CES shows have been bendy, this is the first one that's flexible enough to spin up into tube form. LG's images depict it descending into a little box the size of a sound bar, but the company also talks about making the display portable. The secret, as usual, is its paper-thin organic light emitting diode display (OLED). |

wearables to help quality of life - lots of different applications

iLook.TV lets you curate custom TV channels distributable via smartphone compatible apps that act as pay-TV like subscription channels.
The channels are commercial and can include or accept advertising requests thus providing a monetization opportunity for channel curators.
iLook.TV is made up of two components:
1) iLook.TV website where you create your channels
2) iLook.TV ChannelApp for ditributing your custom channel
In a Channel you can add / syndicate video clips and submit TV commercials to the iLook.TV system.
The ChannelApp is instead a mobile app that can be fully utilized by Channel subscribers as Program Guide for your channel as well as a TV remote to watch specific video content on their connected large TV screens. The ChannelApp can be branded, configured and submitted to the Apple App Store.
ILOOKTV supports three methods of monetization: subscription, pay-per-view, and TV commercials.
Soecifically:
• A Channel subscription must be purchased by a TV viewer to play videos that are marked premium.
• Pay-per-view (PPV) videos are marked with “Buy” (forever) or “Rent” (for 24-hours) and require a payment from a TV viewer.
• TV commercials are submitted to the ILOOKTV system by advertisers and are automatically played on Channels that request them. Advertisers are automatically charged for each insertion via instant auctions.
.
Revenues are collected by iLook.TV from subscriptions, PPV and commercials and are automatically shared with Channel owners.
.
The cost to own a Channel is $100 per year.
N.B.: Channel owners also need to pay the standard $100 Apple Developer fee when they submit the ChannelApp to the Apple App Store.
.
Promising concept. Rough implementation.
A glimpse at what the future of video curated content may look like in the near future.
