Sony developing 1,000 fps image sensor for intelligent computer sensing
Sony is the market leader in the image sensor business and the company is looking to maintain a significant lead over its competitors with new technologies. One of the latest is Sony’s research into an affordable 1,000 fps capable image sensor, which is being developed in conjunction with Nissan Motor Co. and Masatoshi Ishikawa, a Tokyo University professor.
The new 1000 fps sensor has been developed by stacking the circuit and sensor parts for faster speeds and a high resolution, rather than placing the components side-by-side. Sony has been able to reach speeds over 900 fps with some prototypes, while your typical modern smartphone camera sensor might be capable of slow motion video capture at 120 frames per second.
However, this isn’t really a fair comparison as these fast image sensors aren’t necessary for capturing the perfect picture or home video, but they do open up development of new technologies that make use of intelligent computer sensing. The work being conducted with Nissan could enable driverless vehicles that can quickly detect and avoid hazards, or be put to use to develop faster industrial manufacturing methods.
“The images for sensing require a different kind of chip, and the challenge is converting technologies that make beautiful photos to new uses.” – Shinichi Yoshimura, Sony
High speed image sensors can also play an important role in lowering the cost of advanced gesture recognition systems. Such technologies at an affordable price point could find use in a wide range of consumer and industrial applications, including wearable gadgets and other mobile products.
“High-speed image sensors are a niche industry, but Sony has the power to take it mainstream … And that may be just two years away.” – Masatoshi Ishikawa, University of Tokyo
1,000 fps image sensors already exist but are hugely expensive and relatively large, which prohibits their widespread use. These type of sensors cost anywhere from $1,000 to $100,000 from companies including Sony and Vision Research Inc. By adapting its existing mobile image sensor technology, Sony should be able to produce competitive chips at a fraction of previous sizes and costs.
Sony anticipates that image sensor sales could climb as much as 62 percent to 1.5 trillion yen in three years. However, the company also expects that its rivals will catch up with its mobile image sensor technology, so finding new markets will be key in order to stay ahead. Sony is apparently investing €1.5B ($1.7B) in its image sensor operating in FY16, five times the amount that it invested in FY15.
This new sensor technology may help Sony diversify its sensors into new markets and could result in some exciting new products for us consumers. Definitely something to key an eye on.
Sony reduces asking price of Xperia Z5 range just a few days after launch
Sony unveiled its new range of handsets last week at IFA 2015 that included the regular-sized Xperia Z5, the smaller Xperia Z5 Compact and the bigger Xperia Z5 Premium. Soon afterwards, details on the handset’s prices were available, and it became blindingly obvious that the new devices weren’t exactly cheap. Just a few days later though, Sony UK has cut the prices for the new Xperia handsets, we have more details after the break.
The asking price of the Xperia Z5 range of handsets has been cut by at least £50, with the Z5 Compact being reduced from £549 to £429. That’s a hefty price reduction right there. The standard Z5 is down from £599 to £549 while the Z5 Premium has gone from £699 to a more reasonable £629.
Sony hasn’t given any reasons for the price cut/correction, so we are left to speculate about why the prices have been cut. It could be that Sony decided that the launch prices for the Xperia Z5 range were simply too ambitious, it could simply have been human error, or, it could be that the launch prices were stifling orders. Whatever the reason, the asking prices seem more realistic, especially in the case of the Z5 Compact. What do you think of the price cuts? Will it serve as a further incentive to buy one of Sony’s latest offerings?

Sony may announce an Xperia Z5 Compact Premium in Japan
According to a report published a few days ago, Sony is gearing up to launch a higher-spec’d, more impressive variant of the Xperia Z5 Compact in Japan. Chinese website CNBeta claims that the handset will be called the Xperia Z5 Compact Premium and will be available to purchase next month.
As for the specifications, the handset is rumored to sport a 4.6-inch Full HD display, a Qualcomm MSM8994 Snapdragon 810 chipset, 4GB of RAM, a 23-megapixel rear-facing camera, a 5.1-megapixel selfie shooter and a 2,900mAh battery — which is quite an improvement on the standard Z5 Compact.
CNBeta also imparted a promotional image of the device, pictured above, which shows the handset featuring some rather unique, special edition Hatsune Niku branding on the backplate indicating that its set to be exclusive to Japanese carrier DoCoMo.
Sadly, no information was given with regards to pricing, a launch date or whether the device will remain in Japan or expand to other markets, but it’s still nice to see that it’s on its way and judging by the intensity of this leak, it should be arriving pretty soon.
However, as with all leaks and rumors, we have to take these alleged specifications with a rather large pinch of salt until Sony provides us with some evidence as to what it has in store for its upcoming Compact smartphone, but hopefully we won’t have to wait too much longer to find out.

Sony drops the price of the Sony Xperia Z5 family not 3 days after pre-orders started
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
Price cuts for devices aren’t uncommon on smartphones, but they usually happen many months into the device’s life cycle. For the Sony Xperia Z5 family, the price cuts have come just 3 days after pre-orders opened. The new prices for the three devices are as follows:
- Sony Xperia Z5 Compact – £429 (was £549)
- Sony Xperia Z5 – £549 (was £599)
- Sony Xperia Z5 Premium – £599 (was £699)
The price cuts for the Z5 Compact and Z5 Premium are pretty substantial, but if you’re thinking that the £50 cut on the Xperia Z5 isn’t bad, remember that Sony is estimated to be losing about $26 per phone before the Xperia Z5 family was released, so it can’t be good that they’re discounting the phones already.
We’re assuming the cuts have been prompted by an unexpectedly low number of pre-orders for the Xperia Z5 family, which is kind of sad given that the new camera on all the smartphones is pretty cool, but unsurprising given how far Sony‘s star has fallen of late. It’s also pretty tough for early adopters who jumped on the device as soon as it went live, only for the price to be cut literally days later.
What do you think about Sony cutting prices for the Sony Xperia Z5 family days after pre-orders were opened? Let us know your thoughts in the coments below.

This is the smartwatch that luxury brands should be making
A short walk from the sounds and screens of Sony’s heaving IFA booth, a handful of the company’s employees have a small stand of their very own. On it, they’re showcasing the Wena Wrist, a smartwatch side-project the small team has successfully crowdfunded through Sony’s First Flight platform for employee pitches. Smartwatch may not be the best definition of the lo-fi wearable, though, since the face itself is as dumb as they come.Slideshow-317347
Designed by the Wena team and manufactured by Citizen, the simple and chronograph watch faces play second fiddle to the band. That’s where all the tech lies, with the strap housing an NFC chip (supporting the Japanese FeliCa standard) for mobile payments and such, a pedometer for basic activity tracking, and a clasp that vibrates and lights up when notifications hit your smartphone.
It’s an unashamedly pared-down approach to the smartwatch: one that crams a few key functions into the form factor of a regular, metal dress watch. It’s surprising that luxury horologists haven’t gone down the same road, marrying their traditional designs with bands that add a few smart features.
For now, the project is still in its early stages. The watches are good-looking prototypes, but the iOS “app” is a basically a collection of mock-up screenshots at this point. The Wena team hope to launch the not-so-smart smartwatch in Japan sometime next year, before thinking about international availability (and Android compatibility) when that milestone’s been crossed.

Here are the best things from Europe’s biggest tech show
Big tech shows. Sometimes they amaze. Other times they can leave you a little cold — it just depends on what you’re looking for. This year’s IFA, held in Germany and blessed with a mix of torrential rain and sun, is a good example of exactly that. The show has a reputation for filling halls with refrigerators and washing machines (which can sometimes be interesting), but here’s the finely-honed highlights. If you somehow missed our IFA reportage all this week, start here. Slideshow-317033

4K is boring and other musings on the failures of innovation
The cardinal rule of technology is simple: It must never, ever, under any circumstances, be boring. The engine that motivates consumers to spend hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on a device that’s not essential to furthering our lives is all down to the excitement it gives us. That’s why IFA 2015, Europe’s buttoned-down equivalent to Las Vegas’ Consumer Electronics Show, has proved to be a disappointment. The event has been marked by risk-averse and conservative product showcases — a sentiment that may sound whiny and entitled coming from a member of the tech press, but it’s not meant to be. If companies can’t create compelling, must-have products, then they simply won’t survive. The existential threat these tech companies face is two-fold: consumer apathy and content with the status quo. For most consumers, innovation takes a back seat to products that are merely “good enough.”
There may not be an average tech consumer per se, but we can look at the popularity of topics covered on this site to glean insight into some common behaviors. For instance, they use social media on mobile in the form of Facebook, Instagram or Twitter and spend increasingly large amounts of time watching streaming video. The trend of “cord-cutting” isn’t the sole province of 16 to 30-year-olds anymore, as streaming media is becoming common with other demographics, too. Whether that media is consumed at 720p or 1080p resolution doesn’t quite matter as our hypothetical consumer probably can’t even tell the difference. They’re not buying more expensive subscriptions to Tidal’s high-quality streaming music service, either, and seem to be reasonably happy with Spotify’s adequate default bit rate (i.e., 96 kbps for mobile/160 kbps for desktop). As such, they’ve likely overlooked innovations the tech industry has trumpeted as game changing in years past.
If you’re looking for proof, you need only consider the curious case of 3D TVs. Back in 2010, the format was heralded as the next big thing by the likes of Sony, Samsung and Panasonic. And yet, here in 2015, we’ve moved on to talk about 4K/UHD, with the prior standard having been virtually abandoned by its former champions. There are countless reasons as to why 3D flopped, including the high cost of the hardware, the availability of compatible content, as well as the new production methods that it required. Unfortunately, it was a bit of a vicious circle with consumers refusing to adopt new 3D TVs and companies refusing to invest in the format until there was sufficient adoption. And so the whole thing died.
#SadGiraffe… in 4K
Tellingly, 4K has already been superseded by the arrival of OLED 4K displays with HDR. And even that fresh standard’s set to expire with the looming threat of 8K on the horizon. I’d be lying if I said these current 4K HDR sets aren’t beautiful; they are — from the hardware design all the way through to the picture. But I can’t imagine telling someone to spend thousands of dollars on one of these units, as there’s not yet enough content to justify the purchase. The other problem with launching a new standard like 4K is that companies must convince consumers who’ve already invested in the status quo to upgrade their existing content libraries.
There’s a memorable scene in the film Men in Black where, when discussing a tiny disc that’s designed to replace CDs, Tommy Lee Jones’ character Agent K says, “I guess I’ll have to buy the [Beatles’] White Album again.” The physical media future that film predicted never arrived mostly because of the internet. With the arrival of widespread broadband connections, came the advent of digital piracy. Or, barring that, consumers that were content to merely rip their CDs to MP3 format. It’s the problem that high-definition audio was designed to solve. The reality, as tech columnist David Pogue (amongst others) has demonstrated, is that, much like with subtle differences in HD video, consumers often can’t discern the qualitative difference between SD and HD sound.
“Technology can’t be boring. It has to excite us by promising to make our lives better and more efficient.”
Despite this, Sony is hoping to create demand for high-definition audio with its new range of h.ear audio gear. CEO Kaz Hirai even dedicated a portion of his IFA keynote to praising the technology’s benefits. He went on to say that in a private blind “taste test” consumers overwhelmingly preferred HD music to its lower-quality predecessor. That’s not really breaking news, however, since I doubt many people would knowingly opt to eat Arby’s if given the chance to dine at a four-star restaurant. The problem here isn’t one of taste, but economics: Replacing your music collection and audio equipment with high-definition gear is expensive and the benefits of doing so are still unclear. Sony’s HD audio gamble is just that — a gamble. Not even Neil Young, with his music industry clout, can stir up enough interest in his ailing HD audio company Pono to expand its market reach.
That brings us to Sony’s buzzworthy Xperia Z5 Premium, a smartphone which comes with a 5.5-inch 4K display. Now, a 4K display on a smartphone sounds cool in print, but is there any practical reason as to why you need one right now? In the future, if commercial smartphone-based VR is popularized, then sure. But as a recent article on Gizmodo highlighted, the human eye’s incapable of discerning granular detail beyond the 300 ppi mark. If that’s the case, then the 806 ppi on the Z5 Premium is overkill; a gimmick that’ll only serve to reduce battery life, the smartphone feature consumers require most.
Sony’s Xperia Z5 Premium has a 4K display.
Technology, as we’ve established, can’t be boring. It has to excite us, and it does that by promising to make our lives better and more efficient. A 4K TV doesn’t do that — it’s just a technical improvement on the flat screen HDTVs you already have. A 4K smartphone doesn’t improve the quality of your browsing experience, nor make Instagram pictures any greater. If you already have a music collection in your life, you’re not going to be demonstrably happier if you listen to it in HD rather than Spotify or MP3s.
Instead, these companies need to look towards innovations that can actually make the human experience more enjoyable. The first smartphones did this by opening up the internet in all of its glory; the first portable music players freed us from having to carry around physical media; wearables promise to make us healthier; and the internet of things paves the way for a fully automated home. Genuine usefulness is what these companies need to focus on because simply adding another layer of gloss on what already exists is simply not good enough.

Android Authority this week – September 9, 2015
It was the week of IFA, and some of the biggest names in technology delivered once again. Sony launched a new generation of the Xperia Z series, including the bombshell Xperia Z5 Premium, the world’s first 4K smartphone. Samsung managed to wow us with a Tizen smartwatch that actually looks sleek and compelling. Motorola brought out its refined Moto 360 2nd generation. Huawei introduced the impressive Mate S and the long-delayed Huawei Watch. Lenovo and ZTE continued their quest to conquer the market with affordable, but competent devices. Startup Nextbit showed off a fresh take on the cloud-centric smartphone concept. And maybe the hottest news of the week: details on the upcoming LG Nexus 5X.

Having a team that is spread out throughout the world has its perks, but one drawback is we don’t often get to see each other IRL. That’s why big shows like IFA and MWC are special for us on a personal level. Not only we see each other, we get to meet up with our colleagues, friends (and competitors) in the blogosphere and media. And for people that spend their days literally staring at screens, that’s a blast.
Josh, Lanh, Nirave and I have had a good time in bustling Berlin, bringing you what we hope is some of the best IFA coverage around. But the show still goes on, so keep it tuned for more posts and videos over the next couple of days.
This week, we brought you our exclusive report on the Nexus 5X. Coming September 29 at an affordable price, the Nexus 5X will probably be targeted at the mass market, and that makes us happy – more people will be enjoying Android in the most Googley way possible, and we can’t wait to see the new device (and Huawei’s Nexus) in action.
Is 4K even remotely necessary on a smartphone screen? The debate will rage on for years, but Full HD is still a great choice, especially if battery life is what you’re after. From my hands-on time with the Full HD Xperia Z5, it’s a lovely piece of gear. If you want to win one, our weekly giveaway is the place to go – best of luck to everyone!

The premium Android smartphones are seeing falling profits despite critical acclaim
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
It’s been an ongoing narrative in 2015 that many in the tech industry are afraid to acknowledge, but sadly it’s becoming more of an inevitable fact with each passing quarter. Profits for premium Android smartphones are falling, so much so that the brands that we once loved and lauded are now scraping together what little they have to try and keep their loyal fanbases happy. Prime examples of this are HTC and Sony, whose mobile divisions are doing so badly that they have had to lay off large parts of their company (HTC) or continuously copy+paste designs year after year (Sony). This has been true even for the larger manufacturers, Samsung and LG, who have seen profits dip despite critical success of their 2015 flagship devices. So what exactly is happening?
Well, according to the maths done on financial reports in Q2, Samsung is doing the best of all Android manufacturers, pulling in about $33 USD per device sold – that sounds almost laughable compared to what Apple is pulling in for each iPhone sold (~$185 USD), however it is one of the only manufacturers making any kind of profit per device. Whether this means the flagship Android smartphone is endangered remains to be seen, but it’s obvious that there could be a shift in strategy for many manufacturers in the not too distant future.
