LATEST DEVELOPMENT IN IT
The world is changing in every second due to innovation In the
filed of IT so here is some new technologies which may change
our lifestyle in a positive way

NEW TECHNIQUES FOR EYE-GAZE TRACKING

COULD CHANGE COMPUTER INTERACTION
Mice, and now touchscreens, have
become a daily part of our lives in the
way we interact with computers. But
what about people who lack the ability
to use a mouse or touchscreen? Or
situations where these would be
impractical or outright dangerous

Many researchers have explored eyegaze tracking as a potential control mechanism.

These tracking mechanisms have become
sophisticated and small enough that they
currently feature in devices such as
smartphones and tablets. But on their own,
these mechanisms may not offer the precision
and speed needed to perform complex
computing task

BEYOND THE TOUCHSCREEN: RESEARCHERS DEVELOP

ACOUSTICALLY DRIVEN CONTROLS FOR SMARTPHONES

As people find ever more inventive uses for smartphones, touchscreens

sometimes fall short as control surfaces. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon
University and Disney Research have developed an inexpensive alternative a toolbox of physical knobs, sliders and other mechanisms that can be readily
added to any device

The researchers drew inspiration from wind

instruments in devising these mechanisms,
which they call Accoutrements. The idea is
to use pluggable plastic tubes and other
structures to connect the smartphone's
speaker with its microphone. The device
can then be controlled by acoustically
altering sounds as they pass through this
system.
Just as a simple slide whistle or flute can
produce expressive music, these
Accoutrements can add a wide range of
functionality to a smartphone, including
proximity and pressure sensors. And
because no electrical circuitry is involved,
the plastic Accoutrements can be made
rapidly and inexpensively.

HOLOGRAPHIC COMPUTING
Transform your world with holograms.
Envisioned a world where technology could become more personalwhere it could adapt
to the natural ways we communicate, learn, and create. Where our digital lives would
seamlessly connect with real life.

The result is the worlds most advanced holographic computing platform, enabled by
Windows 10. For the first time ever, Microsoft HoloLens brings high-definition holograms
to life in your world, where they integrate with your physical places, spaces, and things.

Holograms will improve the way you do things every day, and enable you to do things
youve never done before.

Go beyond the screen

As holograms, your digital content will be as real as

physical objects in the room. For the first time,
holograms will become practical tools of daily life.
Shape holograms to fine-tune a design. Interact with them
to learn something new. When you share your ideas,
show and tell from multiple perspectives.
Microsoft HoloLens enables you to make decisions more
confidently, work more effectively, and bring your ideas
to life right before your eyes.
