Smartwatch, Wearable Android Devices: Unwrapping the future

Android Android Android !!! Everywhere Android... that's what Google wants to imbibe with its new range of wearable android devices like Smartwatch.

Google Smartwatch displays everything..

The first question that strike in our mind is, what exactly a Smartwatch is ? What's all the fuss about ?

Smartwatch is a watch that works on Google's android operating system and has the capability of communicating with your smartphone or tablet. This would be a wrist watch, easy to wear and would help users to interact with their smartphone or tablet in an efficient and one touch format.

Now, I will explain how the smartwatch will work and benefit you in a lucrative and an inferential manner by correlating common use of a smartphone.

Navigate, See Notes, Get NotificationsLets say, one uses smart phone for tasks like phone calls, short messages, social media updates, my calender appointments, navigating to a place, listen to music, watch videos, etc. Now suppose you are driving on your bike to an unknown place and before starting your travel you have started navigation in your phone.

But here comes the problem: How would be able to see the routes with your phone in your pocket and you yourself driving? For that either you have to stop again and again to check the route or you would be relying completely on Google voice navigation commands which can be heard over the ear piece.

Here is the catch: The Google Android Smartwatch here comes to the rescue.

What all you need to do is, just connect the Smartwatch with your Smartphone and then you just need to see your watch like you see the time without stopping.
It makes Life Simpler !!!

Another way to see the effectiveness of this device is; suppose you are in a meeting, you can't attract attention towards you again and again glancing in your phone for messages, updates coming on your phone. The smartwatch again comes as a lifesaver for you by providing all updates on a one touch basis on the dial of the watch. So you can enjoy the boring meeting as well as remain connected to your pals without getting in troubles of finding your phone in your pocket or bag.

Gmail notificationsGoogle's Smartwatch also has some add-on benefits. It can track and monitor all your fitness data during any physical activity which spares you the burden of peeping in your phone's display every time. You will get all the data and info with the same accuracy as your smartphone, that too without any lag.

So if you see it that way, Smartwatch works as a remote display for your smartphones and tablets. It can show your appointments notifications, message notifications, and fitness data.


There are also some add on updates available on Smartwatch such as traffic updates, taxi pick-up confirmation, QR code based information, etc. etc. etc.


Google Hangout notificationsThis was the story till date, but in future, these wearable Android devices might work as remote controls or displays for other devices as well. It may also serve as your TV or DVD player remote, your air conditioner remote or might also give you the ability to launch a playlist on your MP3 player.

Google has joined hands with giant watch-makers like Fossil and with other consumer electronics manufacturers such as HTC, Qualcomm, Broadcom, LG, Intel, Mediatek, MIPS, Motorola, Samsung to mushroom the new device's reach-ability to common man.

Here are some products for you which are all ready to get launched:

1. Samsung Gear-2

2. Motorola Moto 360



3. Sony Smartwatch

Apple Samsung Patent Dispute

It has been quite a long time hearing about a technical feud prevailing among the two tech magniloquent company's viz Samsung and Apple.

Apple Vs Samsung

Apple, claims that Samsung is using their patented software innovations like swipe to unlock, universal search and a few more. As per Apple's attorney in the court trial Samsung owe $2.2 billion to Apple for this damage.

On the contrary, Samsung attorney's obliterates this by rationalizing the fact that what Apple claims as their own innovation, is actually Google's. Yes, you read it right. Google's!!!

As per claims, Google is the first creator of these technologies and this happened even before Apple filed patents for sub tasking them in their products as patented technologies. Every android device regardless of the manufacturer inherits such features. So Samsung does not owe even a Nickel for such accusations made by Apple. In additions to this, the compensation for all patents is just $38.4 million, in contradiction to the amount being claimed by Apple. Adding more details to the controversial case is, Samsung claims that Apple is responsible for two patents infringements and thus Apple owe $6.2 million to Samsung .

So, in all there are seven patents at issue; five held by Apple and two by Samsung . Apple has accused Samsung of infringing US patents 5,946,647; 6,847,959; 7,761,414; 8,046,721; and 8,074,172. All related to software features, such as "quick links" for '647', universal search for '959', background syncing for '414', slide-to-unlock for '721', and automatic word correction for '172'. Overall, Apple argues that the patents enable ease of use and make a user interface more engaging.

Samsung, meanwhile, has accused Apple of infringing US patents 6,226,449 and 5,579,239. The '449' patent, which Samsung  purchased from Hitachi, involves camera and folder organization functionality, and the '239' patent covers video transmission functionality raising implications for Apple's use of FaceTime.

Samsung's product line under infringement includes the top notch products like Galaxy Note, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy S II, Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, where Apple's product line commensurate with ecstatic iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch.

The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday upheld a ruling by Judge A. Posner of the Northern District of Illinois undermining the claims of the two organisations in the race of horses to become the flagship top notched mobile manufacturer of the world with respect to sales and revenues.
52 hours of testimony has spotted light on many things ranging from the invention of technology to total damages that are caused and now the jury will need a refresher to let them towards a verdict.

Anyhow, whosoever might win but the debate will definitely provide new paradigms to the mobile world technology patent procedures and consequences of infringements !!!
