Philips has developed a new navigation system for supermarkets and it might not be too long before we see it here.A good idea which of course works via an app and LED lights. This app would work well in some chain stores here as they are always moving things around and when popping in looking for a few items sometimes can be annoying.
The system, developed by Philips, uses the supermarket’s light fixtures to form an indoor positioning grid. Each LED fixture emits a unique code through light that is invisible to the human eye but is detected by the camera on a smartphone.
This then triggers an app which shows the customer exactly where they are in the store, guides them to items on their shopping list and provides information relevant to their location such as details of special offers, new products and recipe ideas.
Philips claims that, as well as making supermarkets easier to navigate, the LED system can cut electricity consumption by 50 per cent compared to conventional store lighting, driving down running costs and making buildings greener.
“Our connected lighting system has the potential to transform shopping into a more interactive and personalised experience,” said Gerben van der Lugt, head of LED-based indoor positioning at Philips Lighting.
One of the advantages of a light-based navigation system is that retailers do not have to invest in additional infrastructure to house, power and support location beacons for indoor positioning. It is also more accurate, according to Mr Van der Lugt.
“Radio frequency-based positioning technologies like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth triangulation deliver accuracies of two to five metres and require installation of additional hardware. Philips’ connected lighting system with indoor positioning technology is sub-metre accurate and simply uses the existing lighting infrastructure,” he said.
There has been lots of reports of latest as to the sale of the hugely popular HERE maps which Nokia own,HERE maps has become very popular with many companies and there has been much reports of late as to the company being sold.Personally they should stay put imo but that’s me but if they want to sell and take a huge sum of cash well who is to stop them,there has been some staggering numbers flying around as to what is on the table.
Reuters reports..
Nokia (NOK1V.HE) is in no hurry to sell its mapping unit HERE despite receiving high quality bids, the Finnish company’s chief executive said in a trade magazine interview.
Telecoms network equipment maker Nokia began a strategic review of its maps business last month, setting in motion an auction process that has pitted Internet players like Uber and Baidu (BIDU.O) against German carmakers in a deal that could be worth up to $4 billion.
While declining to comment on bidders, Chief Executive Rajeev Suri acknowledged in trade magazine European Communications that the unit had attracted “significant interest”, and said the quality of the bids was better than expected.
But he added: “Let’s give it more time…We may not end up selling it if we don’t get the right value. It has to be a good competitive deal for Nokia and our shareholders.”
On 12 May 2015, Nokia celebrated the 150th birthday of Nokia. Join them for a trip down memory lane and a look at the future in this new video released. Enjoy..See our full coverage over HERE
YouTube launched 60fps video playback a few months ago and people have enjoyed it,now they have launched 60fps Live Streaming.
60fps live streaming, launched today as an early preview on HTML5-compatible browsers. When you start a live stream on YouTube at 60fps, it will transcode your stream into 720p60 and 1080p60, which means silky smooth playback for gaming and other fast-action videos. .
Also added another long-requested feature for live streaming: HTML5 playback. As of this week, YouTube live streams will use an HTML5 player in supported browsers. And because our HTML5 player supports variable speed playback, you can skip backward in a stream while it’s live and watch at 1.5x or 2x speed to catch back up.
