First WebOS on HTC EVO 3D? [Video]

Hope developer Ryan (Ryan Hope) from the command HP / Palm posted picture of HTC EVO 3D, installed on it WebOS. This port is made ​​by Ryan in his spare time for fun and yet not be published publicly. But given the rate that the company took the HP, it is possible that WebOS will appear as a third-party firmware on current HTC smartphones and in official OS - in the future.

Hope Returning to Ryan and his experiment. Sam Ryan argues that the HTC EVO 3D was chosen because of the fact that its characteristics are similar to those that have HP TouchPad, the first and only tablet PC on the WebOS. Indeed, in both devices installed dual Qualcomm MSM8660, which is not only processor in the literal sense, but also the controller of many communication tools and sensors that are installed in the smartphone / tablet. Current ARM-chips are true "sandwich" with the deployment of multi-elements. In addition, Ryan says that these pictures were taken a few months ago, before the opening of the code. To understand the performance presented by Ryan port, I would like to see the video review.

To understand what a WebOS in its present form, check out the video below.

Hewlett-Packard has developed concepts for "Living Steel"

After a week of wide release will a fantastic film "Living Steel" with Hugh Jackman in the title role. The film is set in the future, and on the screen, we repeatedly find familiar brands: Nokia, Xbox and Hewlett-Packard. On the first two while the official reports were not, but HP could not resist, and even before the premiere, described the concepts of devices that have been developed for the film.

The first instance was ThruScreen - ultra-thin display augmented reality. ThruScreen is a transparent touch screen display, designed for modeling objects. Behind the screen is placed a real physical object, its image is added to computer graphics, which moves with the object in real time and at any angle.

No less interesting is 3D-printer VolumeJet. Time to have to forget about printing pictures of flat quartered paper, it's remnants of the XX century, in the future will be output to print three dimensional objects. This is logical: the object is modeled on a computer ThruScreen - and then it "printed." For example, a piece for the robot, since the film tells the story of one of them.

The third concept is known as Curve, it is not representative of the family of smartphones BlackBerry, and L-shaped computer with a curved touch screen, a direct descendant of the present HP TouchSmart. The base machine interface is a stylus, which is used as an alternative "naked" means finger input. On such a computer would be easy to play, say, in the strategy.

And finally, the last instance is called Flex. This flexible laptop, with which the characters of the film control the robot during the match. As ThruScreen, this laptop is equipped with a transparent display through which you can look at the robot and find out its current state, a convenient means for monitoring the status of an iron soldier. It is hoped that the development of their actual HP products will follow in this direction.
