OS & UPCOMING MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES

WHAT IS MOBILE OS A mobile operating system, also referred to

as mobile OS It’s is the operating system that operates

a Smartphone Modern mobile operating systems combine the

features of a personal computer operating system with touch screen, cellular, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, ,voice recorder ,music player, Near field communication etc

PRESENT AVAILABLE OS IN MARKET BlackBerry OS from RIM  Android from Google iOS from Apple Symbian OS from Nokia and Accenture Windows Phone from Microsoft 

UPCOMING MOBILE OS Ubuntu Tizen Firefox OS Jolla Sailfish  Aliyun Open WebOS

a completely new mobile OS with button-less, gesture-based user interface

Swipe the screen from the edge and the UI effortlessly shows up app controls, notifications and lets users switch between apps. This is also known as Edge Magic.

Tizen is a free and open source Mobile Operating system based on Linux.

There are rumours that Samsung is planning a version of Galaxy S3 phone based on Tizen instead of Android.

Tizen's software framework for developers is based on web standards such as HTML5 and web

TIZEN

FIREFOX OS The platform is built on Mozilla’s “Boot to

Gecko project” is a true open source Mobile OS

The platform is optimized for entry-level smart-phones and does not include any unnecessary middle-ware layers

Device manufacturers like TCL Communication Technology and ZTE have also announced their intentions to manufacture devices featuring the new Firefox OS, using Snapdragon™ processors from Qualcomm.

 ALIYUN

Aliyun is a Linux based Mobile OS developed by AliCloud.

It has a great potential to replace Android in China atleast, as it provides better services in terms of maps, gmail and searches in China as compared to Google and would be a good alternative to costly iOS based devices.

JOLLA OS

Jolla OS is a Linux-based mobile operating system developed by Jolla

Jolla OS has a proprietary user interface developed by Jolla that will set it apart from the other available mobile OS

and it has the capability to run android apps Jolla has plans to come out with smart-

phones based on Jolla OS by the end of this year or early next year.

OPEN WEBOS Open WebOS is a mobile operating

system based on a Linux kernel, it was open sourced recently by HP

Developers still believed that WebOS handles multi-tasking significantly better than any other embedded OS

No products planned with the Open webOS but we might see devices running on Open webOS in time to come.

UPCOMING TECHNOLOGIES flexible screens Cloud storage Near Field Communications (NFC) Infra red Keyboard Sixth Sense Bluetooth 4.0 Gorilla glass 3 Wireless charging or Inductive charging

FLEXIBLE SCREENS Bendy phones sound like science fiction – but

the far-out gadgets could be on sale in just a few months’ time. Both Samsung and Nokia are working on the technology

Yi said that the first devices to ship with flexible screens would be phones. Other possible applications include ‘foldable’ iPad-style tablets

CLOUD STORAGE In this coming future Smartphone is becoming

smarter and the storage capacity of these devices being increasing to store more data

Today 64 GB capacity mobile are not enough for our daily use to fulfill this requirement

mobile companies are working on the use of “Cloud computing” technology in mobile.

Microsoft Office Web Apps is embedded in Live and hotmail is just good enough for online typing.

NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATIONS (NFC)

NFC technology allows commercial transactions to be done wirelessly through mobile devices, without the need for data cards

The phone can be paired (read placed close to each other) or tap products, in order to transfer files

Near Field Communications has been implemented in a number of Google's Android based smartphones

HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY AND INFRA RED KEYBOARD

Infrared keyboards should help smartphone users type and interact with much larger and friendly keyboard.

With this technology the phone projects a virtual keyboard on a surface before the user who then enters data as if he were using a laptop keyboard.

SIXTH SENSE

The ability to use gestures to manipulate all sorts of daily activities, read information from the internet, and even project information on the wall, can be mind boggling.

Imagine using your hands to read bar codes or even take pictures anywhere in the street or house

BLUETOOTH 4

The headline feature of the latest Bluetooth 4 release is low energy (LE) operation, which allows a mobile handset to talk to a wide range of low-power peripherals and sensors

It will enable new mobile accessories and business models, many of which will use the mobile device as a channel to communicate with cloud services

LTE(LONG-TERM EVOLUTION)

LTE is a next-generation cellular wireless technology that pushes peak theoretical speeds to hundreds of megabits per second and reduces latency

LTE will be adopted by code division multiple access (CDMA) and Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) network operators.

WIRELESS CHARGING OR INDUCTIVE CHARGING Inductive charging uses an electromagnetic

field to transfer energy between two objects  Energy is sent through an inductive

coupling to an electrical device, which can then use that energy to charge batteries or run the device.

Companies are also working on wireless charging technology which is today only available in Nokia Lumia 920

PROS & CONS OF WIRELESS CHARGINGpros Lower risk of electrical shock  ConvenienceCons More costly Slower charging Lower efficiency, waste heat

GORILLA GLASS 3 It isNative Damage Resistance Its 20% more powerful than gorilla glass 2 In Gorilla Glass 3, the scientists went to the

atomic structure of the glass to fundamentally improve the way the glass responds to an impact or scratch.
