This is the problem all of the family members face with, when stretching their hand to a basket with remote controllers and remembering for what device a certain controller is used. But the Eyesight is trying to deliver the maximum comfort to your living room control stand. A device is quite similar to Kinect 2.0 for Xbox One at the first sight, but unlike it, has a small LCD screen, where you choose a concrete device you want to control. And choosing is made simply by waiving your hand right or left, but don't forget to make a "hello" gesture to turn it on.
A rectangular device having 9.2 inches long and 1.1 inch deep stands 1.9 inches tall and can be placed on the shelf or simply hooked on the back of a flat TV screen like a portable web-cam on your old PC. A 3 inch LCD square screen is fitted to show the variety of devices it is connected to. When a device is chosen, you can manage it, for example, by holding your forefinger at your lips, being a familiar signal to mute the sound.
The control box can be connected to your digital devices, such as TV sets, audio systems or even a Nest thermostat via Wi-Fi or Infra-Red wireless streams, so be sure to leave all the cables inside your house walls with no need to entangle your room with more wires or additional controlling devices.
The device is expected in the early 2015 and is available for pre-order just for $129 through the official web-site and when it releases the price tag is expected to be put to a $199 level, so try your best to be the first to wave your hands with no just effortless meaning and realizing there is no need to stand up and search a TV remote controller, when there's all-in-one gesture controlling box waiting for you to sit on the couch and relax.

We have heard that Motorola is working on a new version of the Moto X. Furthermore now it looks like the company has dropped out from their pocket a new version of the Moto G with the prefix 2.
There is only a bit of information about the specifications which were disclosed recently. Inside we can expect a similar to the Moto G 4.5-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels and density of 326 ppi. Under the hood a significant performance boost is expected. Сurrent prototype of the new Motorola Moto G2 is equipped with a quad core processor ARMv7 VFPv4 NEON, 2GB of RAM and an Adreno 305 graphics accelerator chip.
A controversial issue is also camera's armament. The novelty will get a 2MP camera in front and a rear camera 8MP caliber on the backside. The big question is how many SIM cards will support Moto G2. We are inclined to assume that both options make sense. Like its predecessor the new Motorola handset took on board the same Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, port MicroUSB 2.0 and Android 4.4 KitKat as operating system.
As yet there are no details about capacity of the battery or price. The official launch date was appointed to September 4th, but we can presume for sure it is planned for fall, as it will make Sony Xperia Z3 Compact, for example.

Actually it can be called a blow below the belt because it is not a classic virtual reality helmet in a common sense. This is a simple trick that can be considered as genius.
Practically it seems to be a classic VR but in fact it is a bandage with a phone that works exclusively together with the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 smartphone. Gear VR is just an assembly of a separate parts to be paired together. To use the handset as a basis is truly a genius decision, isn't it? Especially if the screen resolution of the device allows you to use it at its full potential.
Speaking about the screen of Galaxy Note 4, it provides a better resolution than Oculus Rift Dev Kit 2 in its present version. Oculus certainly holds a number of benefits, such as elimination of motion blur and pesky nausea problems. Note 4 having a large number of pixels can not effectively do it. Maybe it was the key to a successful deal between Samsung with Oculus. But to having the phone separated from headset is also worth something.
Gear VR also has a volume rocker, a small touchpad, and a back button. But Oculus Rift provides powerful graphics card for the same money amount. Therefore we can conclude that Samsung Gear VR will be great for videos and Oculus Rift for games. The price of helm only is $199, together with phablet which will cost less than $800 or $290 on-contract in U.S. it will cost $1000 lump sum.
