10-Apple patents that we hope come true iWatch, patent, Apple-IT news 10 we hope becomes a reality Apple patents
Apple's myriad's patents has been the object of attention by the media, even though these patents do not necessarily become reality, but they can at least help the outsiders gain some insight into the mystery of what Apple is doing. But then again, we still hope that the interesting patents can become a reality. Here are 10 we hope most of Apple patents can become a reality.
1, touch screen technology:
Today's full touchscreen phone for blind operation almost impossible, in May 2012, but Apple's touch screen technology might change that.
Apple this sophisticated multi-layer system enables OLED screen synchronized with the sensors/actuators work and realized by cascading several elastic layers of the screen each other keys or three dimensional objects, or as images (such as maps) a sense of texture. The system can also respond to the physical touch of the users, and distinguish between your fingers when you touch the screen is a light or heavy.
2. the shatterproof glass:
When the phone is in use will inevitably bump or accidentally falling, but if Apple's patent becomes reality, we don't have to worry about the impact on mobile phones damage.
This patent was granted in November 2011, shatterproof glass, the specific way is the use of sodium and potassium ions to deal with iPhone4 and 4S used by Alumino-silicate glass. This treatment can improve the surface and edges of the compression threshold, thereby making it more difficult to break.
Patent also mentions another interesting feature: the screen glass and metal housing of the device is placed between a shock mount. When the device's accelerometer detects when the body is falling, the shock absorber will immediately start to inflate, and wrap the screen glass thus plays the object of protection.
3.iWallet：
Although Apple is currently developing its own Touch ID technology, to allow users to iPhone5s and ' shop ' on a device in the future, but until then, Apple actually used to design a complete digital-wallet system that lets users direct control over their financial accounts on the iPhone.
The named "iWallet" patent was granted in March 2012. The system allows users to see their own credit card for complete information and browse through notices and information from the Bank. In addition, the iWallet also offers parental control features, for parents to restrict their children's expenses.
4. the virtual shopping Buddy:
Back in the Amazonian publish Firefly technology a couple of years ago, Apple has designed the "Products+" patent, allows users to scan any product in the store for more information. This feature also includes the elements of some kind of game, when consumers scan specific items, the system will give some free incentives, such as the iTunes music or video products.
5.3D images:
Amazon may be before Apple introduced its first "3D" smart phone, but Apple's future devices may also possess the ability to take 3D images, which thanks to them in March 2012 to get a photo of the patent.
Although already has enough 3D cameras on the market, but none of these devices are basically capture enough information on shape, surface and depth of field. Apple's solution is to use a variety of sensors and cameras: a polarization sensor used to capture the image, the other two are captures two different non-polarized images, the system will combine these images.
6. interactive holograms:
Hologram concepts have long been popular, but where we can see it mainly in science fiction movies. Apple holograms also became interested in: they want users to not only see a hologram, also able to interact with it.
Among the patent in October 2012, Apple describes an image projected in mid-air, and allows the user to interact with the system. Users can also use some common gestures, such as slide and pinch zoom, to control the image.
7. liquid metal:
Apple purchased LiquidMetal in 2010 its exclusive use of liquid metals. This is a very strong alloy, due to its high resistance to scratches and corrosion/is very suitable for the production of consumer electronics equipment.
But no matter what the reason, Apple has yet to release a whole made of liquid metal equipment. According to a patent published in May this year, Apple is thinking about a "glass complete embedded metal frame" approach, it's going to make an extremely strong iPhone, at least structurally speaking. Patent that Apple will use a new type of display glass, which reminds us of the recent relevant iPhone6 Sapphire screen message will be used.
8. smart interactive maps:
Apple's technology may never catch up with Google maps, but last December a patents show Apple released some different ideas for its mapping service.
It is reported that Apple's "interactive map" solution will be introducing a customizable dynamic coating systems, it will only display the contents of user needs, so that the map does not show clutter and information overload. For example, if you touch a point on the map, Apple map will provide a different route, along the way and shows the main points of interest.
9. Apple bike:
Bike does not look like an Apple product interest type, but 2012 patents show a communication is bike racks and Apple mobile devices. After connecting with each other, these will be displayed on the screen of your mobile device "speed, distance, time, altitude, heart rate and power", and so on.
10.iWatch：
Rumors of Apple iWatch smart watch is currently a hot topic discussed in the people, and this patent also announced in February sparked the imagination of all.
Patent, this watch is equipped with a continuous, flexible displays, its interior is a flexible steel tape the exterior is wrapped by the fabric. The device and communicates with the mobile device, which is equipped with solar panels to boost the battery life of the device. If you think add solar panels to the smart watch funny last month Apple also upgraded its own solar energy, for its entry into the multitouch and flexible displays, these will be iWatch would have the capability.
