Tech's grim reaper calls up Windows Phones, Sony prepares to revive Aibo robotic dog
It's Monday, October nights, and if you're shining new 4K Ultra HD OLED TV with HDR technology and so forth is still just too low res for you, well, Sharp has a $133,000 8K solution for you. But what to watch on it? It's not like anyone is broadcasting 8K these days outside of some special NHK test programs in Japan. So, what to do? Shoot your own 8K content, of course! Which means you'll need this—the Red Weapon camera with the new Monstro 8k VV sensor. And what do you get for your $80,000? $80,000 does not include any lenses or a ton of other very expensive gear you'll need well. The new sensor is capable of 17 plus stops of dynamic range, which is pretty awesome. You can pull 35.4 megapixel stills from the footage for wall-sized prints, very handy. If Spielberg rings you up to shoot his latest cinematic epic, you'll be all set.
The latest Red Weapon 8k wonder cam is set to come out in 2018, so get your deposit in now before the tech ends up in a smartphone for $900 a few years from now. Hey, Windows Phone users—yes, all 27 of you—we've got some bad news. Looks like Microsoft is transitioning the OS from an active product to something nearly dead and buried, according to a tweet from a Wind Phone and Microsoft guy. Bug fixes and security updates will continue to be applied to the mobile OS that just never caught on. But new features and apps in common anytime soon? There was just never enough momentum behind the OS to build an app universe that came anywhere near what Apple and Android offered. So, the end is near. Heck, even Bill Gates uses an Android phone now, but hey, for what it's worth, your Windows Phone will probably run on Android. So, there's hopefully still some life left in that handset you've bonded with.
Hit the link for tips on switching over. Speaking of old things that have been given a new lease on life, and guess who's back? Yep, it's our favorite robot dog, I bow, according to the Nikkei Asian review. Sony is spooling AIBO production back up after an 11-year-long dog nap. What's changed since 2006 when I bow was sent out to the farm for unwanted robot dogs a lot? Namely, artificial intelligence and smart home hubs. I think a robot dog with AI roaming your home sounds like a good idea. We do, and so does Sony. Sure, beats that fabric-covered can on a table idea that many other companies think is the new epitome of design. The review says the resurrected or reawakened I bow is part of a larger push into home and industrial robotics from Sony.
Sony already has decades of robotics development under their belt with the humanoid ASIMO robots. So, we're hoping once I bow gets accepted into millions of homes, ASIMO won't be far behind. Because, let's face it, the laundry is really stacking up.
