Violet By Ultra, Inc Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter Men don’t seem to worry about skin cancer that much, but the fact is that they should. Yes, men aged 15 to 39 are more than twice as likely to die from melanoma as women. Maybe it’s time we start paying attention to how much sun we’re actually getting. Enter Violet by Ultra Inc, a new device that’s hoping to help you with just that. Violet is a piece of wearable technology that will help monitor just how much UV you’re getting. Violet will serve as a big brother that watches over you while you’re out in the sun. The device itself is a sensor that comes with a bracelet and a clip. On the whole, this device is a step in the right direction. The problem is that at around $100, it seems like it will be too pricey for the common guy. Violet’s a good idea that can save lives, but it probably won’t have the type of appeal that it should.

iCracked - Fix or Sell Your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Today Museu do Amanhã | Experiência Através da ciência, cada vez mais reconhecemos hoje que somos interligados a todas as formas vivas com as quais dividimos este planeta. E, ao mesmo tempo, reconhecemos que a atividade humana se tornou uma força geológica: estamos transformando a composição da atmosfera, modificando o clima, alterando a biodiversidade, mudando o curso dos rios. Vivemos no Antropoceno. Toda a vida na Terra terá de se adaptar a estes novos tempos plenos de incertezas – e oportunidades. O Museu do Amanhã se apoia em dois grandes eixos narrativos: no campo da Sustentabilidade, perguntamos ao visitante “como poderemos viver?”; e na Convivência, “como queremos viver?”. Com curadoria de Luiz Alberto Oliveira, físico do CBPF e doutor em Cosmologia, o Museu do Amanhã proporcionará uma visão acessível a todos sobre o modo como estamos alterando o nosso planeta e como o habitamos. O amanhã é feito hoje.

Metaio’s Augmented City Demo May Answer The Question Of AR’s Utility Augmented Reality veterans Metaio are announcing some more details about their upcoming insideAR conference scheduled to take place in Munich, Germany on September 26 – 27. While the speaker list for the event has been available since July, the greater theme for the conference is being updated via press release today. That theme is: “From a Vision to a Roadmap”. To help illustrate this thematic announcement, Metaio have release a video that shows a small scale demo of their vision for the “Augmented City”. The demo is cool and illustrates their vision well, but it’s important to note that, strategically, the focus of the insideAR event also seems to be tied to revealing their roadmap for reaching this vision. For if ever a technology needed a roadmap for practicality, it is Augmented Reality. But back to the Augmented City demo… It looks cool but I admit at first I thought it might be a bit gimmicky. There are many possibilities if the practical hurdles can be jumped or removed.

Hacia una metodología proyectual de los multimedios (7) Se han descrito y analizado múltiples actividades concernientes al diseño de los multimedios, siendo su intención final, una vez comprendidas y contextualizadas, organizar estas etapas de diseño de manera de afrontar un proyecto de multimedios desde una perspectiva metodológica acorde con las nuevas actividades del diseño surgidas de las nuevas tecnologías de la información. De esta forma se propone finalmente un esquema de acción en que cada fase de diseño propuesta responde a una pregunta fundamental dentro de la concepción general del diseño de multimedios. Este plan metodológico además intenta vincular de manera coherente el orden en que debieran ser abordadas todas estas materias junto con indicar la relación que existe entre ellas, hasta definir el prototipo que da respuesta a los objetivos de diseño planteados al inicio del proyecto. Esquema metodológico propuesto del taller de diseño de multimedios, según la problemática descrita. Solís Stegmann, Juan Marcos.
