After Samsung's Gear Fit, Here comes Microsoft's Smartwatch

Recently Samsung unveiled its Gear Fit , which comes with Note 3. TO compete Samsung's Gear Fit , Microsoft has planned to bring "SmartWatch" to the market. With this Microsoft has avoided itself from being left out in the wearable tech wars! Interesting! Recently there were rumors that Microsoft will be launching its new Smartwatch but Forbes found out that the rumors were true. Microsoft is indeed coming out with a watch that has sensors and can measure heart rate!

This time Microsoft has made a completely profitable and effective gadget. While the Gear Fit was compatible only with Samsung's Note 3 , Smartwatch wins the battle as it fits in for all Windows Phone ( Natural of course ) , iPhones and Androids too!

Microsoft Smartwatch to Sync with iOS, Windows and Android; to Come with Always On Heart Rate Monitor
With Microsoft joining the Smartwatch scene an interesting flavor is added to the mix.According to Forbes’s sources, the Microsoft smartwatch will be tapping into existing technology and expertise from the company’s Xbox Kinect group.

Also, the Smartwatch wont look more different with a full color touchscreen.Naturally, an app will go together with the Microsoft smartwatch.

The big question is what else will the smartwatch have other than heart rate monitoring? Microsoft needs to know that the buyers wont be satisfied with just one feature. They already seem to have known it and a group of professional engineers from Kinect are working on that.

The rest is upon us to wait and see what comes out of the mix!

Solar Roadways - The Future of Roadways

WHAT IS A SOLAR ROAD?


A photovoltaic solar road is a road surface that generates electricity by collecting solar power with photovoltaics. This is not to be confused with a variant concept of a "solar road" installed in Avenhorn, a village in northern Holland, by Ooms Avenhorn Holding AV, that uses asphalt and tarmac to absorb the sun’s rays. The idea of Solar Roadways Inc's concept is to replace current petroleum-based asphalt roads, parking lots, and driveways with photovoltaic solar road panels that generate renewable energy that may be used by homes and businesses, and with any excess energy perhaps stored in or alongside the road.
Parking lots, driveways, streets and eventually highways are all targets for the panels.

To make you understand what exactly are Solar Roads, take a look at this video below-



The company ran low on capital so from Earth Day (22nd April) to May 31st , they are in the midst of an indegogo crowdsourcing campaign to raise the funds needed to gear up for production of their SOlar Road Panels.

WIth 3 days more to go , the crazy plan to cover the nation's road with solar roads raises $1.5 Million.
