Why smart doorbells are great for people with disabilities

Because getting up to see who is at the door isn’t always as simple as it sounds.

I was late on the “smart doorbell” craze. I’ve dabbled with home automation for almost 20 years and have seen it go from very expensive, very complicated, and very poorly implemented to something as easy as buying two things from Amazon and plugging them in the next day so they can just work. “Hey Google, turn up the stereo. Louder. LOUDER.” But when the Ring Doorbell first became a thing, it was a thing that I couldn’t find a reason to spend the money on.

I’ve since picked up a Ring Doorbell (thanks to a crazy-cheap deal from Thrifter) and have had it out front for a while now. It was kind of cool for the first week, I could say hello to my wife as she walked to the door or tease my dogs, but it just didn’t seem practical. I wrote it off as a fun toy. All that changed recently when my wife switched shifts at her job; she’s no longer there in the mornings to tend to whoever may be ringing the bell, so I have to do it. That’s a little more complicated than you may think. I’m in a wheelchair and there’s a flight of stairs between where I work and the door.

Some of us need more time to get from point A to point B. A smart doorbell can give you a little more time.

Ask anyone in a wheelchair and they’ll tell you that stairs are our nemesis. Whether it’s a simple curb on a sidewalk, an entry to a shop downtown, or the 13 stairs in my house, they act as a bit of a roadblock. Most everyone in a chair has some way to deal with stairs because they happen to be everywhere, and my way is to grab a pair of canes and slowly go up or down and do whatever it is I need to go upstairs to do in the middle of the day. I’ll be frank — it hurts a lot and it takes a while. It takes enough time that a FedEx delivery person who needs a signature can write a little slip of paper and slide it into the door jamb then leave with my package.

A smart doorbell with two-way communication beats yelling up the stairs and making the dogs bark.

Tech writers get a lot of packages delivered to our homes, and a handful of companies are notorious for requiring a signature to get theirs delivered. That makes sense when you’re sending expensive things that are easily broken across the country or across the globe. Sometimes a delivery person will hear me yell that I’m making my way there and wait, other times they won’t. Now, though, they all hear because I give a friendly greeting and let them know I’ll be a minute or two making my way up the stairs or that they can come to the side door through my Ring Doorbell.

A smart doorbell is more than a fun toy, but it’s still a fun toy, too.

It’s not perfect and more often than not I catch the back of a delivery driver’s head as they are walking away unless they noticed the Ring and knew to press the button. And even with simple to adjust settings for motion detection you’ll still get false alarms, so windy days with leaves rustling or even shadows moving across the porch might have me checking who may be at the door. This is to be expected when you use a motion sensor to trigger anything, but I understand the Ring Pro (I’m using a Ring 2) does a much better job determining what is a real trigger and what isn’t. But none of that matters to me because I can say “HI!” to the back of a driver’s head just as easily as saying it to the front and checking a false alarm is as easy as looking at my phone or computer screen. The drivers are very accommodating and understanding because I’m not the only person who uses a smart system to tell them it takes a minute to get to the door.

Being able to tell someone at your door that it takes a bit longer then they expect for you to get there is a little thing. Many of the people who knock on the door or ring the bell aren’t someone we want to talk to and in my case, the vast majority of any packages that arrive don’t need to be signed for and are set on the porch for me to collect once I get up the stairs. Still, a Ring Doorbell or a Nest Hello or any other all-in-one video doorbell solution is a turn-key product that can help make my life seem closer to normal. That makes it worth the asking price and any extra monthly costs. I’m guessing that anyone you may know who has trouble getting around would feel the same way because feeling normal can be priceless.

How often do you use the S Pen on the Galaxy Note 8?

According to the AC forums, the S Pen is a must.

Samsung’s Galaxy Note series is iconic for a lot of different reasons, but perhaps its biggest differentiating factor is the S Pen.

The S Pen has seen a laundry list of improvements since the original Galaxy Note debuted in 2011, including a sturdier design, increased pressure sensitivity, and plenty of new software features.

There’s no denying that the S Pen is convenient to have, but do people really use it all that often? According to the majority of our forum members, the answer is a resounding “Yes!”

I use it for almost all interaction with the phone. Fingers too big and imprecise.

The handwriting recognition works quite well most of the time too.

All day, every day. Type with it, dial with it, scroll with it, use the calculator with it, write, draw, annotate, select/copy/paste text and images, “smart” select, magnify, etc., etc.

But most importantly I use the original S Note/Action Memo app. I think that’s a big divide in S Pen users as well. For those who came to the Note series with the N7 or 8 and unfortunately were introduced to…

I don’t use it every single day, but when I use it for notes and documents at work I’m soooo grateful to have it. I won’t say I’ll NEVER switch to a phone that doesn’t have a pen, but it’s going to take one hell of an amazing phone to pull me away from it.

On the flip side, however, there are some Note 8 owners that still aren’t convinced the S Pen is the bee’s knees.

I don’t use it all that much. Last night was the first time in weeks. To be honest, the S-pen wasn’t a selling point for me. It was the overall quality of the phone. The Note 8 is a really good phone with or without the S-pen.

What’s the ideal camera height for PlayStation VR?

Can you improve your tracking for the PlayStation VR by re-arranging the camera set up?

Reddit user Tomathy101 battled the idea of finding better tracking for the PlayStation Eye Camera by changing the height in which it was set up. He argues that, as a man who is over 6 feet tall, that his tracking has improved since he has raised his camera well above his head level. So we did some experiments to confirm or deny this based on the heights of different people. So, if you’ve been curious go on below to see if this would work for you!

Your height makes a difference

While conducting this experiment I tested the tracking problems on the height range of three different people; An 8-year-old child, a 5″0 adult, and a 6″3 adult. This was to test the theory that maybe the camera doesn’t need to be at a 7″0 height for everyone, and perhaps just a little above your head in general.

This theory was proved right correct. A person of 6″3 had the best tracking performance when the PlayStation Camera was at 7″0 of height, while the person of 5″0 suffered even worse tracking with the camera at the same height. To elaborate, this means that the set-up requirement for someone of a significantly different height than you will absolutely be different.

Setting up your PlayStation Eye Camera for better tracking

If you are in a home where the users of your PSVR vary in height I recommend purchasing a mic standoff off of Amazon. This will help ease the constant readjustment you will need to do to accommodate the different heights, as well as giving you a sturdy base for your camera. If all the users of your PlayStation VR are about the same height, do not worry about buying extra equipment unless you don’t have a good base to hold your camera at the new height it will now require.

For ease and peace of mind, purchase a mic stand. (Link below.)
If there is room to set up the mic stand behind your TV so that it is centered in your play area, this is highly suggested. If not, there is not too much worry about it being slightly off-center. It will, however, affect your play space.
Always ensure that whoever is playing has the PlayStation Camera above their head at a minimum of 6 inches and a maximum of 12 inches.
Have the camera at a slight downward angle. You want to ensure the Camera sees you from your head to your toes, but also have enough room to see all the inevitable movement of said head and toes.
To ensure your safety and the function of your headset, follow the instructions below to re-calibrate your play space and see exactly what your camera is seeing.

See Mic Stand on Amazon

Checking to make sure your play space is still safe, and your Eye Camera can still see you

Press and hold the PlayStation button.
Select Adjust PlayStation VR
Select Confirm your position
This will show you what your camera is seeing. Do a run through to ensure the new setup can visualize your entire play space.
When you are confident the visual is okay, check the lighting. Bright lights will appear as dark circles. If this happens, you might need to adjust your lighting.

And viola! Go forth and play your favorite PlayStation VR games now that your tracking will stop giving you issues!

Thoughts?

Samsung Galaxy S9+ tested: Exynos 9810 vs. Snapdragon 845

Samsung sells two variants of the Galaxy S9+: a model powered by the Snapdragon 845, and a variant featuring the Exynos 9810.

From the Galaxy S7 onward, Samsung has offered two variants of its flagships — a model powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon platform for the U.S. and China, and a global variant featuring the manufacturer’s in-house Exynos chipset. That’s the case this year as well: the Galaxy S9 and S9+ sold in the U.S. and China are powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 845, while the models sold in South Korea, UK, India, and other global markets are running the Exynos 9810.

Traditionally, there haven’t been a lot of differences between the two variants — the Exynos 8895-powered Galaxy S8+ had marginally better battery life over its Snapdragon sibling, but there wasn’t a performance differential. With my unit powered by the Exynos 9810, and my colleague Andrew Martonik using the Snapdragon variant, it’s time to see how the two variants differ.

Hardware

There isn’t a whole lot to separate the Exynos 9810 from the Snapdragon 845 when it comes to the manufacturing side of things, as both chipsets are built on Samsung Foundry’s second-gen 10nm node. The Exynos 9810 features Samsung’s third-generation custom core, the M3, along with a Mali-G72 MP18 GPU. The Snapdragon 845, meanwhile, sees the introduction of the Kryo 385 cores, along with the Adreno 630 GPU.

As is to be expected, both chipsets offer increased performance, with Samsung touting a 2x increase in single-core performance compared to last year’s Exynos 8895, as well as a 40% uptick in multi-core performance. That’s largely due to the M3 cores, which are now clocked at 2.90GHz, a significant bump from the 2.3GHz M2 cores last year. The configuration of the cores itself hasn’t changed — there are four M3 high-performance cores that go up to 2.90GHz, backed by four energy-efficient Cortex A55 cores at 1.90GHz.

The Exynos 9810 nearly doubles CPU performance from last year.

The second set of cores are also significant, as they’re the long-awaited sequel to the Cortex A53. The A53 has been a mainstay on budget phones and flagships alike for a few years now, and the A55 delivers more performance while consuming less power.

The uptick isn’t as radical when it comes to the GPU side of things. Like its predecessor, the Mali-G72 MP18 is based on ARM’s Bifrost architecture, and introduces several tweaks and optimizations to eke out more performance. This year’s GPU has 18 cores (hence the MP18 denomination) whereas the one seen in the Galaxy S8+ last year, the Mali-G71 MP20, had 20 cores. The core frequency hasn’t seen a drastic uptick either — the G72 is clocked at 572MHz, just 30MHz more than the G71. As a result, the overall graphics performance is marginally better than last year.

With the Snapdragon 845, Qualcomm is also sticking to an octa-core layout, with four high-performance cores joined by four energy-efficient cores. This year we have the Kryo 385 core, which is a semi-custom design that’s based on two of ARM’s cores.

The heavy lifting is done by the 2.80GHz core based on the Cortex A75 — ARM’s latest offering — and the energy-efficient tasks are handled by a 1.77GHz core based on the Cortex A55. As for the GPU, Qualcomm is touting a 30% uptick in performance from the Adreno 630 over last year’s Adreno 540.

Benchmarks

Synthetic benchmarks give us a high-level overview of where the two chipsets differ. Based on the hardware, the Exynos 9810’s M3 CPU should outperform the Snapdragon 845, whereas the Adreno 630 should have no issues pulling out ahead of the Mali-G72. Let’s see if that’s indeed the case. I’ve also included scores from the Exynos 8895-powered Galaxy S9+ to see how things have changed over the course of a year.

AnTuTu

AnTuTu Benchmark v7.0.4

AnTuTu Benchmark v7.0.4

AnTuTu isn’t a reliable indicator of how good a device is to use on a day-to-day basis, but it maintains a leaderboard that gives us an idea of where a particular phone ranks in the overall scheme of things.

As you can make out from the scores above, the Adreno 630 is some way ahead of the Mali G72, breaking the 100,000 mark on AnTuTu.

Geekbench

Geekbench 4.0

Geekbench 4.0 includes CPU tests that are modeled after real-world usage, allowing you to get an overview of how a processor handles day-to-day tasks, including multi-core performance.

Here that we get to see the Exynos 9810 pull ahead of the Snapdragon 845, both in single-core and multi-core performance.

Basemark

Basemark OS II

Basemark OS II is a system-level benchmarking tool that gives a high-level overview of a device’s performance. The suite consists of an array of tests that gauge the system, internal and external memory, graphics, and web browsing performance.

Basemark Web 3.0

Basemark Web 3.0 offers a set of over 20 web benchmarks that measure browser performance and graphics, including page load responsiveness, along with CSS, and HTML5 capabilities.

GFXBench

GFXBench 4.0 Manhattan 3.1 (ES3.1)

GFXBench 4.0 1080p Car Chase Offscreen (ES3.1)

GFXBench 4.0 T-Rex (ES2.0)

GFXBench tests the graphics performance of a device, and we see the Adreno 630 once again edging out the Mali G72.

3DMark

3DMark Sling Shot Extreme (ES3.1)

Chrome

Google Octane 2.0

JetStream 1.1

Kraken 1.1

Which is better?

Hardware is just one part of the story with these two chipsets, as the way the software is set up makes a lot of difference as well. With Samsung Experience 9.0 atop Android 8.0 Oreo, the overall experience is similar between both devices.

I haven’t faced any slowdowns on my Exynos Galaxy S9+ even while playing visually-intensive games, and in his review, Andrew said that the Snapdragon 845 is “far more powerful than anything we need in a smartphone today:”

The Galaxy S9+ handled everything I threw at it without any hesitation, and I experienced zero slowdowns, app crashes or system instability. The phone’s been rock solid, and I just hope it stays that way over time.

Regardless of whatever model you end up with, you’re getting a phone with top-notch performance.

YouTube’s ‘miniplayer-bar’ keeps videos at the top as you scroll

It looks like YouTube is testing more than one multitasking feature on the web. Aside from giving select users access to its experimental picture-in-picture floating video panel on desktop, it’s also testing a video bar that follows you as you scroll down the page. According to the Engadget editor who was able to trigger the behavior on his account, YouTube’s code calls it the “miniplayer-bar.” It allows you to continue watching a video, albeit in a smaller panel, while you scroll down, say, to check out the video list on the “Up Next” sidebar or to read YouTube’s infamous comment section.

Like the picture-in-picture floating video panel, YouTube has taken this feature from its mobile apps and has given it a desktop spin. When you scroll down while in portrait mode on mobile, the video that’s playing takes up the whole upper part of the screen. On desktop, as you can see above, the video takes up a small part of the bar, which also shows its title, as well as the thumbs up/down, share and subscribe buttons. YouTube might be testing both the floating video and miniplayer-bar features to see what’s more effective on the desktop version of the website. While the platform might end up releasing them both to the public, it could also choose the one that works better on a bigger screen.

Samsung’s new Exynos chip boosts photo-taking in mid-tier phones

Samsung’s latest application processor (AP) is set to significantly improve photo-taking in mid-tier phones. The Eyxnos 7 9610 has boosted deep learning image properties, so it’ll recognize faces in pictures even if they’re not facing the camera, or if they’re obstructed by hair or hats.

The AP also improves single camera out-focusing and augmented low-light images, and supports slow motion filming in 4K at 480 frames per second. Plus, it’ll process images 1.6 times faster than its predecessor, the Exynos 7 7885.

On to performance, and its octo-core processor boasts four Cortex-A73 cores running at 2.3 gigahertz (GHz), and four 1.6GHz Cortex-A53 cores to load apps quickly and run multiple tasks simultaneously. The GPU is a second-generation Bifrost-based ARM Mali-G72, so expect more realistic and immersive graphics.

Finally, its embedded all-network LTE modem supports 600 megabits per second (Mbps) downlink and 150Mbps uplink, alongside a bunch of wireless features such as longer range Bluetooth 5.0 and a four-mode global navigation system.

In short, it packs a powerful punch for a mid-tier phone AP, although products like Exynos 7 are largely aimed at the Chinese market. The company says it expects to start mass producing the AP in the second half of this year.

YouTube to follow Amazon by screening its movies inside theaters

Following YouTube’s announcement last month that it intends to spend “hundreds of millions” on original content for Red, it’s just unveiled plans for a YouTube-made movie that’ll also be released in theaters. And unlike its previous effort, 2016’s widely-regarded flop Lazer Team, this project has a serious name attached to it: Susan Sarandon.

The film, Vulture Club, is already in post-production. It stars Oscar-winning Susan Sarandon as an emergency room nurse whose son has been kidnapped by terrorists, and after being abandoned by the government, finds help in the unlikeliest of places. The thriller also stars Edie Falco of The Sopranos and Matt Bomer of Magic Mike, and is directed by Iranian-American Maryam Keshavarz, of Circumstance fame.

Despite being slated for theatrical release, details on YouTube’s plans to actually get the movie into theaters are scarce. Speaking to IndieWire, a rep from YouTube Red said, “We don’t have any news to report on a theatrical partner at this stage. Perhaps later once we identify a partner.” However, the move marks a significant strategy shift for the company. Just last year it made clear its intentions to focus on its online channel, telling IndieWire, “Our distribution strategy for our original films and series is grounded on YouTube Red.”

Vulture Club is certainly a different class of movie compared to YouTube Red’s other recent acquisitions, Eminem’s satirical hip-hop drama Bodied and Morgan Spurlock’s Super Size Me 2: Holy ChIcken! A gritty thriller featuring a mega star could well give YouTube Red the leg up it needs to rival the likes of Amazon Studios and be taken seriously in the process.

Apple Maps Adds Transit Directions in Albuquerque, New Mexico

Apple is beginning to update Apple Maps with transit directions in Albuquerque, New Mexico, allowing residents of the city to navigate around it using various methods of public transportation.

To enable transit between two locations within Albuquerque, tap the “Transit” tab at the bottom of Apple Maps once you enter your route. This will surface a series of transit stops on the trip, along with relevant caution advisories, route detour information, fastest route options, and more.

One of the transit options available for Albuquerque residents is ABQ Ride, a local agency that operates within the city with a variety of bus routes for commuters. When applicable in certain cities, transit directions also support subways, trains, and ferries, and in 2016 Apple added support for Amtrack’s full system of train routes across the United States and in select Canadian cities.

In 2015 Apple first launched transit in Apple Maps, limited to Baltimore, Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Sydney, Toronto, and around 300 cities in China. In the three years since then, Apple has expanded the feature to dozens of additional cities around the world.

Apple Maps rival Google Maps updated yesterday with an expansion of its own transit features, adding options for New York, Hong Kong, Taipei, Paris, Los Angeles, Delhi, Moscow, Singapore, Madrid, Barcelona, Kiev, and Budapest, with “more on the way.”

(Thanks, Ram!)

Apple Expected to Trial Production of 2018 iPhone Lineup Earlier to Avoid Last Year’s Supply Bottleneck

Apple is expected to begin trial production of a trio of new iPhone models in the second quarter of 2018 at the earliest, as it looks to avoid a repeat of the issues caused by the initial low yield rates on production of 3D sensor modules for the iPhone X last year, according to Taiwanese website DigiTimes.

iPhone X2, iPhone X2 Plus, and iPhone SE 2 mockup by Curved.de
The report, citing supply chain sources, claims Apple’s fast-tracking of the trial production will help push ahead the delivery schedules for the 2018 iPhones, meaning it should have more plentiful supply available for pre-orders.

The sources cited add that sales of the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X have been “lower than expected,” but they believe the earlier production will help Apple to “rekindle” its smartphone momentum. Apple’s supply chain partners are said to be “generally more optimistic” about order prospects this year.

Leading up to the iPhone X launch, multiple reports claimed Apple was having issues with ramping up production of the device. KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo pegged the TrueDepth camera system as the primary reason for the supply bottleneck, due to its complex 3D facial recognition technologies.

Kuo added that the yield issues began to stabilize by late October, but when pre-orders began on October 27, shipping estimates for the iPhone X quickly fell back to 5-6 weeks around the world. The estimates gradually improved over the following weeks, and the device was fully in stock by mid December.

Looking ahead, Apple is widely rumored to launch a so-called iPhone X2, iPhone X2 Plus, and a cheaper 6.1-inch model with Face ID, but with design tradeoffs like an LCD screen and no wireless charging. And if today’s report proves accurate, getting your hands on one of the new models should be easier this fall.

Based on the video, it appears the victim had already walked across one lane on that side of the street with her bike but was in the shadows until the car reached her. Inside, the human safety driver looks down toward her lap and looks up just before the crash, appearing to be surprised. An Uber spokesperson said, “The video is disturbing and heartbreaking to watch, and our thoughts continue to be with Elaine’s loved ones. Our cars remain grounded, and we’re assisting local, state and federal authorities in any way we can.”
