Apple is a pioneer in many different ways, and it is no longer true that this statement only applies to hardware.onec ends, Apple has one patent after another confirmed, and a significant percentage of them also relate to wireless technologies, which are and will be the alpha and omega of the technology sector. Now the Californian giant has come up with a new solution to share information between users.

About patents AppWe write about it every day, and often these are quite interesting and innovative methods that are just waiting for someone to implement them. The latest confirmed patent is no different, which focuses on wireless data transfer. According to the company, this could happen by pointing two devices at each other and the transfer would immediately begin. Apple In short, it assumes that this is how most human communication will take place in the future, and so it tries to simplify the entire concept. AirAccording to the Californian giant, Drop and, by extension, Bluetooth is already a relatively outdated technology, whose slow response does not keep pace with the times. Detection of nearby devices often takes a relatively long time, which, according to the company, is apparently unacceptable. Apple so he wants to ensure that the entire process takes place in a few seconds, so that the user does not have to wait too long.
The replacement could be optical transmitters and receivers, which are strikingly similar to the old IRTalk system. It was based on the concept of optical devices that exchanged information with each other using beams. After all, it was Apple that came up with this idea and successfully implemented it. The patent was jointly awarded to 6 inventors and researchers who have up to 200 different patents, mainly focused on optical communication, ultra red radiation and photovoltaic devices. Two of them, Omid Momtahan and Tong Chen, are also behind a new method of using moving lenses in space to transfer information. In their work, they concluded that this would be a much faster and more efficient way of exchanging information and files, but on the other hand it depends on how precisely the device is aimed and a slight deviation would be enough to cause the whole concept to fail. Simply put, the main thing would be a beam that would travel from one device to another.

In practice, all you have to do is point your phone at the right angle to someone else's device, and it will instantly transmit an electrical or light pulse. In any case, the lens, or beam receiver, would have to be able to rotate to capture the information correctly. This is an incredibly complex system based on the precise movement of light, but it would require precise handling. A simpler solution would be to use infrared light, similar to how you control a TV remote. We'll see if Apple implement the concept or come up with something more effective.
Proso maybe only other companies have given up on IR transmission, you idiots
According to the article, it is not IR
that something like Android beam over NFC? It's quite fast there, I tried transferring a 1.2GB movie and it was transferred to the second phone in 40 seconds
why does it just remind me of the remote control 21 stor :))))
Tech 40 seconds is a very exaggerated number ;) keep the small talk ;)
If it goes through NFC, so just at the beginning within the opening of "connection" Then it goes via BT/wifi depending on the file size ;)
Well, if you think about it in limited terms, then it's exaggerated. However, it could be a completely new technology that will bring drive unthinkable speed
Is Android Beam a brand new technology? ;)
Promin, but such speeds are currently provided by 5G networks. In real operation, I think it's about 300-500 Mbit (I think this was in Monaco).
So are those 40 seconds for 1,2GB of data really inflated?
Which Android Beam? Did you get the pages wrong?
I'm saying that the technology hasn't even been introduced and you already know how it will work, see? 🤦♂️
2 Ahjo: if you read the comments better as they follow each other and didn't just respond to the semi-sentence post, you will find out that it was a response to a post by Bjørn/10. 12. 2019 15:22 ;-)
RoSch: well, I'm self-centered, you know that 🙂 in that case, he mixed 2 comments into one..
Those dilettantes from AppInstead of playing around with patents, transferring data that they are not even able to secure, etc., they should immediately focus on how to eliminate the impacts of jailbreak (checkra1n) threatening a wide range of IPs!!!!
I'm really surprised that anyone is still thinking about buying the overpriced ones Apple a product with such fatal errors and poor quality!!!
A low quality smejd for 5k is still a more meaningful transaction than for 30k!!
I wouldn't say that they invented something, but only that they are trying to improve what was already known to work, but it was not possible to implement it in practice because of its error rate.
Today I read that Apple is negotiating in Taiwan to purchase the technology for the fingerprint reader in the display for IP12 :))) There is no doubt that Asia is really technologically a generation away from the apple giant.
Hnujavej has already cut off parts from the US voluntarily and gladly, but if parts from Asia stopped coming to the US, they could iphone to compose maximal from Lego :) Someone should tell Trump that, but if they told him, he would kick him out right away. America first :)
ProHello Vas, I am new here.
The rule always applies: the more iThings, the bigger the iOveca?
