CEATEC 2010 Highlights

The main highlights of this years event can be found here . Overwhemingly, 3D was still the major theme of the trade show as evident with Sony's 3D world but there was a clear movement towards mobile. Such as 3D screens for mobile by Sharp, QVGA OLED displays from TDK and clear fluid and dual phone screens by Fujitsu. There was also a display of high speed wireless mobile connectivity from Samsung.

In other developments there was some nifty voice recognition software from MMDAgent software, and some good examples of the latest in digital signage from 3M. Some low key innovations which were just as interesting were from 3M's pocket projector and the GETPOWERPAD.

Currently, I am organizing some video highlights of the event and will be uploading them to zoomcreator's video channel.

Twitter Roll Out

Twitter currently has only rolled out about half of their planned updates, namely just requiring scripts that access their API to use “OAuth” . The second part will be the move to t.co URL wrapping which will come sometime in the next couple of months (although a lucky few may already have this function). Therefore, we expect once again an interruption to our main mobile news feed as we make the adjustment to our scripts once the second update is rolled out. Currently we are using tinyurl for url wrapping which will be changing to twitters t.co url wrapping. However, you will still be able to use other url wrapping methods such as tinyurl and bit.ly. The latest Twitter API announcements can be found here.

Iphone's rival, Google's Nexus one

In case you missed it ....Iphone is not the only mobile phone which looks good with digital images. Google's Nexus one (based on the Android OS) has the added advantage of the ability to use Flash. In recent years Adobe's flash is becoming more of an important programing language to render high resolution images in. Get your Nexus one today by clicking the image directly below.

News Feed Aggregator

Amongst other things I am currently working on, users to ZOOMCREATOR.COM will soon have the extra service of a news feed aggregator. This will allow a much better way of keeping up to date with what's happening in the VR and digital imaging world. All syndicated web content will also be published entirely automatically in real time to ZOOMCREATOR's twitter account for the benefit of those on mobile.
