Super screen can transform almost any phone into a 10-inch tablet
Superscreen, a 10-inch wireless screen that transforms almost any phone into a full tablet.
WHAT IS SUPERSCREEN?
Super screen
It's a 10.1-inch screen that syncs with your smartphone. Once connected, the phone provides power, and you can use all your apps and games on the big screen as if it were a tablet - all at a fraction of the cost of a device like the new 9.7-inch iPad 2017), of course.
BECAUSE IT'S INTERESTING?
Because it has the potential to save hundreds of pounds from homes. Think about it. You light up your tablet to read a recipe in the kitchen or check your emails while lounging on the couch - all while your equally pricey phone sits in your pocket, unused. Surely it makes sense to use a set of components for your phone and tablet, rather than duplicate devices? Not only will it save you money, but it will also be good for the environment as you will have to manufacture fewer components. In fact, if removed, Superscreen has the potential to put tablets out of business. An additional advantage is that it negates the need for a separate data plan as it uses your phone. So you can get online on the big screen wherever you are, without spending a penny anymore.
How Superscreen works
Download the add-on application to your phone, then sync your phone wirelessly to the Superscreen screen, after which you can use it as a stand-alone tablet, scan and pinch to zoom, play, and do all the things you want Usually would. Not only that, but the resolution is 2560 x 1600 pixels, which is sharper than a lot of smartphones available today. Scale your content, too, so what's on the screen never looks stretched, enlarged, blurred or cut to the sides. In addition to using the multitouch, it is compatible with the entries of the pencil so you can get scribbles or scribbles, in case the mood takes you. The magic is due in part to Superscreen's patent pending technology, which Transcendent Designs, the people behind the project, claims to speak with their phone more efficiently than other standards and offers "industry leading speeds" up to 100 feet Away In other words, you can leave your phone in another room and continue to use Superscreen. It works with Android and iOS devices, and manufacturers say it is compatible with 97% of newer smartphones, so you should not have any problems using it. Because there are minimal innards, it is much lighter than a standalone tablet and has its own camera - a 2-megapixel selfie camera and a 5 megapixel back snapper. (Even if you take pictures with a tablet, you want to have a word with yourself). It has built-in speakers, too, and - as it's basically a silly screen - uses 70% less battery power than if you were using your phone. As you can probably already tell, there is much that is worth excited with Superscreen - hell, you can even use Touch ID thanks to its tactile recognition technology.
WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES?
As always with crowdfunding, there are risks to taking into account. When you endorse a project, do not buy it as you would with an established retailer. Rather, it is promising financial support to its creators. Generally, sponsors receive their devices as expected, but in a small minority of cases, the project ends up being cancelled and supporters get nowt, or there are problems of delay. Transcendent Designs claims to have minimised risks by conducting a "thorough investigation", combined with its "established network of fulfilment and delivery partners, and our decades of combined experience in the marketing of leading products." It has prototypes of work, but the final model of work will require product certifications, which are out of the hands of the company. He seems to be planning well ahead, with the aim of carrying out these certifications in July, which is way ahead of the expected date of shipment of the device.
IS THERE ANY SIMILAR DISPOSITIONS?
Not that we've seen. Asus Padfone had a phone that physically coupled to a screen while several companies have tried to make their smartphone double as a PC thanks to a docking system, particularly Motorola and most recently Samsung with its dock DeX. If you want the experience of the tablet, but at a fraction of the price and a much lighter device, Superscreen is for you. Prices start at $ 119 (£ 96), which is very reasonable, considering that the iPad starts at £ 339. Okay, shipping should start in December.
5 things you do not know your tablet can do. It is hard to believe that the first iPad was released in 2010. We use tablets for entertainment, work and even pay for a mocha at local coffee. The device, which once looked like science fiction, is now an integral part of American households.
Here are five things you do not know your tablet can do.
1. Use your computer from your tablet
Desktop computers are a two-edged sword: they are strong and have large screens, but they also tend to sit at one place. What happens when you are on the road, and you need to consider some files that are sitting at your desk at home or in the office? This is not a problem if your Tablet PC or Mac is loaded with Splashtop. Just download the free Splashtop Streamer and install on your desktop; Then get the app for iPad and Android; Next, please create an account for both remote devices and log in. This way, you can have the tablet on a beach and look the desktop of the computer at home. The application costs $9.99 and an annual subscription costs $16.99. For people who need to travel a lot or need regular access to files and software that are not portable, Splashtop software is a must for them. The latest operating system of Mac, Sierra, also has a feature that allows you to keep your files and office documents in the cloud (via iCloud drive), and access files on it on your iPad or iPhone.
2. Transfer your files wirelessly from your tablet to your computer
Have you ever emailed a file, like a photo or a document on your Mac from your iPhone or iPad, also sitting on your Mac? Yes, I have it, too, like almost all Apple users do. This is because the use of e-mail files moving works pretty well as long as the file is small enough to be attached. There is another great way of sharing files for iPad owners who can start called Apple AirDrop. To enable AirDrop on an iPad, slide your finger on the home screen to access the system control. From there, you can configure AirDrop. The new Mac computers also have this capability, and you can find this feature in the Finder. AirDrop is a particularly effective way to share photos with friends or to any person who uses an iPhone or iPad and on AirDrop. Android tablets have an almost identical system in a third-party application called Airmore. You can move music, movies, photos and apps from the Android tablet on any device compatible with this app.
3. Turn the tablet into a powerful remote control
Some tablets are made with TV in mind. The Galaxy Tab, for example, has a built-in infrared transmitter that can be used as a universal remote control for TV. Like your old remote, you need to point the tab directly to the TV. The iPads and Androids do not have an IR transmitter, but if you feel comfortable, you can buy an external transmitter that looks like your headphones and can be connected to the audio jack. It is a challenging way to control your TV with a smartphone. You can invest in a Harmony Home Hub or Bluemoo that is designed to turn your smartphone or tablet into a remote control. You can not only change the channels on your TV, but you can enable any Bluetooth device in your home, including speakers, intelligent lighting and security devices. And best of all, you do not have to point your tablet to anything, you only need to be in Bluetooth range.
4. Stream your photos and videos on the TV
Many smart TVs already give you access to YouTube, Vimeo, and Flickr, so you can easily upload your online content, including home videos and view them on your TV. But with the tablet, you do not have to use these services. For example, if you have an iPad and Apple TV, you can use AirPlay to project your tablet screen on the big screen. Just slide your finger from bottom to top and you will see the AirPlay icon. If you do not have an Apple TV or if you are not near a Wi-Fi signal, we can find a VGA adapter and plug your iPad directly into the computer. For Android users there is another option: you can use an application called allcast that can connect your Android phone to many different services like Amazon TV, Apple TV, and Roku.
5. Tune your guitar with a tablet
Guitar Tuna, a free app for iOS and Android gives you a tablet guitar by using your built-in microphone to your iPad or Android-Tablet, the guitar tuna is fast, accurate and easy to use. In addition, it works with all common instruments based strings, guitars, and basses with ukuleles and mandolins. The application also has advanced tools such as a metronome, guitar tools and alternative guitar chords to learn.
