HTC exec confirms next generation J Butterfly handset


HTC exec confirms next-generation J Butterfly handset
 
 
HTC Marketing Chief Ben Ho confirmed that the company will be rolling out a successor to the J Butterfly due to high demand, reports Focus Taiwan.

The HTC J Butterfly was launched last year in several Asia territories, to much fan fare. It later saw a US launch labeled as the Droid DNA, which at the time was boasted as one of the top Android handsets on the market. Now, of course, it is outdone by the HTC One that is set for worldwide rollout in the coming weeks.

Ho didn't go into specifics on what the J Butterfly may feature or when it will be released. Given that Verizon isn't slated to carry the HTC One out of the gate, a Droid DNA follow up makes perfect sense, though Ho didn't comment on it. Europe will more than likely be out of the mix for either the J Butterfly or DNA variant.

Last month, Twitter user @LlabTooFeR reported the Droid DNA follow-upwill feature a 1.7GHz Qualcomm APQ8064 processor, 4.7-inch 1080p display, 13-megapixel rear-camera, 2.1-megapixel front-camera, 2GB of RAM, Bluetooth 4, Wi-Fi, SD card support, Android Jelly Bean, and Sense 5. It's worth noting that specs run very close to the HTC One, though UltraPixel tech doesn't seem to be present.

At any rate, folks in Asia who can't wait for their J Butterfly can sleep a little easier knowing that it's on the way, but weep at the loss of UltraPixel tech if rumours are to be believed.

A basic Arduino Solar PV Monitor

I have just recently had solar pv installed, mainly to future proof my energy costs, I do not expect it to be like drilling for oil in my back garden, however the return looks to be encouraging. The install gives you another single unit meter, from this you will see the total amount the panels produce, but that is about it. I wanted to know how much the production was as it was happening, I discovered the light blinks on the front of the meter will flash 1000 times for each kWh of electricity which passes through. The rate of the flashing of the LED tells you how much power is currently passing through the meter. [ ]

Build a Key Operated Gate Locking System Circuit

This simple key-operated gate locking system allows only those persons who know the preset code to open the gate. The code is to be entered from the keypad within the preset time to operate the motor fitted in the gate. If anyone trying to open the gate presses a wrong key in the keypad, the system is disabled and, at the same time, sounds an alarm to alert you of an unauthorized entry. Figs 1 and 2 show the block and circuit diagrams of the key-operated code locking system, respectively. Connect points A, B, C, D, E, F and ground of the circuit to the respective points of the keypad. Keys S7, S16, S14 and S3 are used here for code entry, and the remaining keys are used for disabling the system. It is very important to press the keys in that order to form the code. To start the motor of the gate, press switches S7, S16, S14 and S3 sequentially. If the keys are pressed in a different order from the preset order, the system will lock automatically and the motor will not start. Fig. 1: Bl...

Apple releases TV spot for new iPods

Apple has just released a fun commercial to showcase its new line of iPod players and the various colours they come in. The TV spot titled ‘Bounce’, has a bunch of colourful iPod touch, iPod nano and iPod shuffles er…bouncing to music. With all that colour and dancing and bouncing, you may forget that Apple’s latest gen line of iPods has some other awesome features. For instance, the fifth gen iPod touch comes with Siri, 4-inch retina display and an A5 chipset. Maybe the next ad will showcase some of these features with less bouncing.link
