Virtual Reality: The Future of iGaming Technology

October 25, 2017 by admin 2 Comments

“VR” (CC BY 2.0) by gordonplant

In this modern era, where technology grows by leaps and bounds every year, most industries now depend on digital advancements for continued success. This is particularly true within the gaming industry, where traditional consoles are now being replaced with innovative offerings such as virtual reality. Otherwise known as VR, virtual reality is predicted to become the most influential game changer since the internet first made online games a reality, particularly for the iGaming industry.

According to a report published by Tech Crunch earlier in 2017, the virtual reality/augmented reality (AR) market will be worth $108 billion by 2021, so it’s no surprise that iGaming developers such as Microgaming and Playtech are already investing in VR technology.

This is especially true when we consider the fact that the casino industry has managed to stay on the brink of modern technology for many decades now, often adopting different platforms and systems before its console or PC counterparts.

Of course, software developers and online casino operators aren’t capitalising on virtual reality technologies just to stay current. Arguably, the casino industry has always adapted to ensure customers receive the best experience possible. This is why land-based casino brands decided to create online presences, so that customers could reach their favourite games without having to lift a finger, never mind travel from around the world. Meanwhile, sites such as Australia’s own pokies.com made titles including slots, table games and scratches even more accessible and fun by creating multiple platforms on desktops, tablets and smartphones.

By introducing VR technology into iGaming, the online experience will become even more enjoyable, authentic and accessible than ever.

This is why a variety of gaming specialists such as GameAccount Network (GAN), Oculus Rift and Casino-VR are already focusing much of their effort on crafting VR services that will improve gamers’ experiences.

Speaking to Proactive Investors, GameAccount Network’s chief executive Dermot Smurfit stated that: “Playing authentic casino games in VR for real money will dramatically close the gap between the live gaming experience available on property and the experience available at home.”

Fortunately for trendsetters like Smurfit, headsets, VR-centric casinos, VR apps, VR glasses, VR consoles and 3D gaming tech is very much available, these companies simply need to apply them.

There are a number of sites and software systems available at this time that have done this, but they are yet to go mainstream. This is possibly due to the fact VR products are still relatively expensive to buy, especially for the individual gaming fans that the online casinos wish to reach.

According to PC Mag Australia, a PS VR headset currently costs $400, with up to $160 in accessories, while an Oculus Rift is $500 and the HTC Vive is an astonishing $800.

Thankfully, there are a number of untethered mobile VR headsets that were recently released including the Google Daydream ($79) and Samsung Gear VR ($130), but these are played using a mobile phone, which some gambling fans may not prefer.

For now, it seems as though we will have to wait for virtual reality pokies to truly come into their own. Right now, we are witnessing the first steps towards a true VR casino experience, and hopefully, the real thing will be worth the wait.

7 New Cool gadgets at CES Technology show 2017

February 7, 2017 by admin 4 Comments

Yes 2017 is here and there is a lot of innovation happening in the technology space. If you have not heard of the new car with no steering wheel and the machine that automatically does the ironing and folding of clothes for you, then you are not up to scratch with your tech news.

Here are some more interesting innovating gadgets unveiled at the CES show this year.

The automated ironing machine that can do the dull and drab work of ironing and folding your clothes right is called fondimate and is available for USD $850 dollars.

It just got unveiled at the CES show in Las Vegas, Nevada USA…. It not only steams and presses your shirt but also folds it neatly.

This lady who won the million dollar lotto and said the first thing she would do is hire somebody to do the ironing would surely be interested in this. Here it is:

FoldiMate laundry robot

Above: FoldiMate folds your laundry. Image Credit: FoldiMate

FoldiMate is the womens and mens ultimate dream gadget. It has created a robot that will fold your laundry. Foldi Mate’s machine does this all when you clip your clothes onto a slot on the machine (this is just the bit that takes some work). The robot then pulls the clothing over a board and steams it, then folds it. Thats it done. Too easy.

You need this now! It takes the robot about just about 10 seconds to fold one item, and it has a capacity of about 15 to 20 items which is quite good and will save you quite some time. Once this smart little robot machine is finished with the whole load of clothes, it neatly delivers out the folded clothes for you to remove and stack or use. The machine is said to cost around $850 or so.

Next :

The Car with no steering wheel

The company that is so confident about its auto driving car that they haven’t put in a steering wheel is the auto giant ford. ITS not launched yet, but its not too far away with current technology advances and will be released in 2021.

Ford plans to build a fully autonomous vehicle without a steering wheel or pedals by 2021, the company announced. The vehicle will be aimed at ride-hailing and ride-sharing fleets.

The motor vehicle wont have steering wheel, brake or gas pedals, offering full Level 4 self-driving features which don’t require a human driver at all

Well ironing automated gadgets and cars that have no steering wheels is not the only breakthroughs of 2017.

This new retro kind of cool gadget just released will definitely make the romantics happy. It’s called the love box (don’t ask) , what it does – ok then i will tell you…

Love box:

The LoveBox was invented by a French guy who missed his wife. She wasn’t as tech minded as him and didn’t like Skype or WhatsApp calling methods, and so he thought about a more convenient and romantic alternative to send messages between the two of them.

The sender using love box can type a small message for the receiver to see on a mirrored surface. The box heart spins when there’s a new message and the message is delivered. It will cost $120, with shipping starting in June 2017.

I love cars and this 2017 release from Toyota sure caught my fancy :

Toyota Concept-i

The future of cars is self-driving cars, but Toyota wants to give you more than that. The Concept-i vehicle shown at CES 2017 show would be capable of driving autonomously, with its biggest draw is the smart artificial intelligence that powers it.

Toyota claims the car learns to be smarter with this smart car being able to learn more about the drivers’ preferences and needs over time as you interact with it more just like a human being. By learning more it can start to suggest destinations after a driver chats with it and more features are going to be added as this unfolds and updates. This vehicle’s virtual assistant also got a name – not siri 2 – its called “Yui.”

Gadgets I crave and I could not , not feature this amazing drone from parrot.They make amazing drones and this ones a bit special.

BEST OF INNOVATIONS: DRONES AND UNMANNED SYSTEMS

The POWERUP FPV – Paper Airplane VR Drone from parrot

This was released by parrot as part of their POWERUP TOYS release

They had a stall at Booth #50801

The gadget PowerUp FPV lets you experience flight as if you were sitting in the cockpit of your very own paper airplane creation. This takes the virtual reality to another level with its ingenuity. The airplane generates a live video stream to the included VR cardboard Viewer.

You can see what your plane sees, and also control your paper drone with intuitive movements of your head making it soar higher that you expected. You need to get this!

What not to love about this laptop ?

I still am in search for the perfect laptop, i got a DELL laptop last year – but im due for an upgrade and change and this one makes me takeout my wallet!!

Razer Project Valerie – The gamers/hackers laptop

This will turn out to be many peoples dream laptop. It’s got the power and also the screens to go with it.

When you’re using a laptop for doing work, playing video games, Hacking code or streaming Netflix , one screen isn’t just enough. So why settle with two and instead have three?

Razer’s Project Valerie concept new dream computer laptop does just that by adding two screens to your laptop. These screens are foldable and have displays that expand out from the main screen in the centre. The screens are 17 inches diagonally and supports the newest 4K resolution

The good thing is that the company says the screens can be used independently or together as one giant display. Theta all to pro – the only con is – It weighs 12 pounds, which is more than the average notebook but more closer to top end gaming laptops.

Dont Be cruel to your family Jewels

There is something for everyone at the CES technology and gadgets show an this one is amazing and Men Only . Nah Not CES release seriously, but indiegogogo

Spartan: the anti-radiation boxer shorts

INDIEGOGO

Smartphones have become popular beyond belief and its takes over the phone world so much so, that we can’t do without one in everyday life. The thing that is on everyone’s corner of the mind, but not many people talk about is radiation from phones.

People have started to put their smart phones in their back pockets or front pockets at the risk of it slipping off and falling or getting lost, but he radiation fear still persists in the corner of your mind.

Spartan has developed a undergarment that looks to shield any man’s family jewels from this modern dilemma. It’s called the Spartan Boxer Briefs and these special undergarments feature anti-radiation tech that aim to protect men’s health and fertility. It does this by creating an electromagnetic shield that blocks wireless radiation from cellphone and WiFi signals.

This technology in the garment works on the same principle as a microwave but keeping the radiation out instead of inside. The technology definitely teaches you not to be cruel to your family jewels

USB DRIVES JUST GOT SUPER UPGRADED

One of the other gadgets that is close to my heart and got released recently is a gadget by Kingston. I collect USB drives! I think that company is a south korean company, they have quality stuff and I have bought from them before. They just released a 2 terabyte USB drive , daymm ! I mean 2 TERABYTE in a small little USB that’s amazing.

The company has created a 2TB pocket flash drive (also available in 1TB), called DataTraveler Ultimate GT (Generation Terabyte). This is now the world’s largest capacity USB flash drive. Data Traveler Ultimate GT offers superior quality being made of a zinc-alloy metal casing for shock resistance.

Specs of Kingston Drive

Capacities1: 1TB, 2TB
Speed: USB 3.1 Gen. 1 (USB 3.0)
Dimensions: 72mm x 26.94mm x 21mm
Operating Temperature: -25°C to 60°C
Storage Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
Warranty: 5-year warranty with free technical support
Compatible with: Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7 (SP1), Mac OS v.10.9.x+, Linux v.2.6.x+, Chrome OS

But then its Korea, they had 1 terabyte pcs.. when we were still selling pcs with 200 gb in the shops 10 years ago (my Korean flatmate 10 years ago said so and had one)

The CES show is one of the biggest technology shows in the world and most big companies worth their money showcase their new breakthrough products in this show. Look out for the 2018 show next year! This year among other things, there was a lot of focus on self driving cars and home robots as well.

CleverLoop Security Camera System Review

January 30, 2017 by admin 1 Comment

The CleverLoop security camera system is designed for homes and businesses wanting an affordable yet smart way of monitoring their property. As well as being clever by name, this security system is also clever by nature as it actually learns, with a little input from the user, what’s important and what’s not.

Important activities that justify an instant alert being sent to the CleverLoop smartphone app include people or vehicles, whereas movements that aren’t important, such as trees, pets and light changes, are ignored. This significantly reduces false alerts, a common issue with many camera security systems.

With users receiving live alerts that include video footage, CleverLoop can be used as a standalone smart home security system, effectively eliminating the need for a traditional burglar alarm. This type of active monitoring camera system is probably the next best thing to hiring a security guard to look after your place 24 hours a day!

Most traditional monitored alarm systems in Australia cost $20 to $40 a month in monitoring fees, which adds up even in just one year. A major attraction of CleverLoop as a home security camera system, or indeed for business security, is that it doesn’t require a monthly monitoring service fee.

Instead, you can keep an eye on your own property and possessions as your cameras are linked up with your smartphone, via a well-designed IOS / Android app. Via this app you’ll receive push notifications, which you can easily disable, to alert you whenever there’s activity in front of one of your cameras. The system records 10 second long video clips by default so you can see exactly what was in the camera’s view. You’re also able to quickly view real-time views from any of your linked cameras.

Who Should be looking at the CleverLoop System?

Homeowners to monitor for unusual activity or to keep an eye on pets or children
Everyone wants a safer home and CleverLoop’s smartphone app functionality makes it a versatile system that provides for burglary protection and much more. Use it to make sure the kids arrived safely back from school or as a ‘petcam’ to see how your pets are when you are out at work.

Renters who want security solutions that won’t upset the landlord!

You want better security for your family and possessions, though your landlord doesn’t want to fork out to alarm the house or have you damage walls when installing a security system, or removing it when the tenancy is up. Indoor cameras can simply sit on benches or bookcases without the need for screws, or can be fixed to walls using heavy-duty 3M removable sticky strips. Outdoor cameras are pretty heavy-duty and solid, so would need to be screwed in place.

Small businesses wanting to protect stock, staff or cash areas
CleverLoop is ideal for smaller business looking for additional security without ongoing monitoring charges, especially as it can connect up to 4 cameras with a single Base Station. CleverLoop allows businesses to easily and affordably monitor behind counter staff, outside areas (especially after hours to prevent break ins or vandalism), loading/delivery areas and any other places where security is needed.

Easy Install of Your CleverLoop Security System

CleverLoop has a painless and user-friendly setup, even for the non-tech savvy! No confusing and poorly explained instruction manual. Instead, you download the app onto your phone and follow a series of short 3-5 second clips to get you up and running.

Summary
Indoor and outdoor high-definition cameras are both well spec’d and are connectable through data cable or WiFi. Coupled with a brilliantly designed app make this a genuinely smart security system. Click here to see the cool things the app does.

The system has a geo-fencing function, which means cameras can be activated/de-activated when an app’s users phone is within a certain distance of the Base Station. This certainly reduces the chance of forgetting to activate your security system when leaving the house!

If you’re looking for an affordable security system for your home or small business you certainly won’t find a better system available for $699. CleverLoop really does cover you for both a silent intruder alarm and security camera system which, if you had professionally installed, would be well over $1200.

You can check out more details or pick up your own system on-line at www.cleverloop.com.au. They also provide free, express courier delivery throughout Australia on their systems and provide great customer support.
