World's Fastest External Phone Charger

World's Fastest External Phone Charger Developed.
Charger that can charge your smartphone within 15 minutes.

London: Researchers have invented the world's 'fastest' external phone charger which ends the need to plug your smartphone into a wall electricity socket. The phone charger can charge your device in just 15 minutes.

The Petalite Flux battery, created by Leigh Purnell, an Aston University graduate, can charge itself from empty to full in 15 minutes.

The device, small enough to fit in the pocket or bag, eradicates the need to plug your phone into a wall electricity socket or computer USB slot.

When the phone needs charging, users can simply connect it to the Flux battery and continue with their day. In 2014, Mr Purnell established Petalite Battery Systems with the intention of creating the world's fastest charging external battery.

MindRDR with Google Glass

MindRDR with Google Glass can Read Your Thoughts..

Until now Google Glass could be operated with a sliding finger and your voice. Now, a London-based interactive studio is unveiling an app which will help Glass users interact with the device using their mind. This Place Ltd., the startup has launched the app named MindRDR which connects Google glass with another head-mounted hardware to create a communication loop. The head-mounted hardware is known as the Neurosky EEG biosensor and can monitor the brain activity. Let us know more about the way the app and the brain-activity monitoring device works together with Google Glass.

MindRDR App
Huge implications are bound to take place when two varied industries are combined together-Telekinetics and wearable devices. We get an exceptional combo of the Google Glass app and the Neurosky biosensor. The Neurosky biosensor tracks the brainwaves or neural patterns that are shown when your brain focuses on something. The mindRDR app then translates these brainwaves or patterns into a meter reading. In Google Glass, this reading then gets overlaid on the camera view. Your thoughts will then be translated into actions which the Glass performs.

As you concentrate more with your mind, the reading meter will go up and a picture will be taken by the app. As the view in front of you gets clicked, you might want to share it in social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook. For this, you need to concentrate a bit more and the picture will be shared in your social media profile without even a slight movement of your finger.

Potential Use in the Medical Industry

Apart from everyday use by the Glass Explorers, this combination will be really helpful for the medical industry. It can be helpful for people who are suffering from locked-in syndrome or are not able to speak. They can engage socially with the world using MindRDR.

Dusan Hamlin(CEO), said that currently the head mounted hardware can read 4 different senses in the mind. But with the progress of Telekinetics, it can read all of the 18 senses that can be mapped and read from the brain.

MindRDR is an open source app.

FACEBOOK 'COLOUR CHANGE' VIRUS

Have you tried to change the colour scheme of your Facebook profile lately? Beware of virus attack as a "colour change" malware is back and has already affected over 10,000 people around the world. 

The malware has been fixed by Facebook repeatedly but it has resurfaced again, reports added. 

It begins by advertising an app that tells Facebook users they can change the colour theme of their profile.

Download the app and you are directed to a malicious phishing site, Mashable reported. 

The danger starts herewith. 

The website targets users by stealing their Facebook Access Tokens by asking them to view a colour changer tutorial video. 

Temporary access to the tokens allows hackers to connect to the user's Facebook friends. 

If a user does not view the video, the website tries to get them to download the malicious application.

If a user is on a computer, the website leads them to download a pornographic video player. 

"If the user is on an Android device, the site issues a warning saying the device has been infected and advises users to download a suggested app," said a report on Cheetah Mobile, a Chinese internet company. 

If you have downloaded the app, uninstall it immediately and change your Facebook password, it said..
