In Your Hands

It has only taken a couple of years for advanced mobile devices such as the Apple iPhone to become an everyday part of many of our lives. The humble telephone has evolved to become a fully interactive hand held device allowing communication, information, navigation, gaming and many other uses.

In the case of Apple’s offering, the almost buttonless device is controlled by a range of hand and finger gestures that include swiping and pinching to achieve a task.

The new Apple iPad provides another category of products that fills a space between the laptop computer and mobile phone. The iPad, like the iPhone is also a buttonless device with an impressive 10 inch interactive screen that will heighten the experience currently found on the iPhone.

The large screen provides  ideal functionality for reading formatted newspapers, interactive magazines and books with Apple looking set to revolutionise print media as they did with music. The ability to download and view movies, television shows, photos and other visual media to a simple to use, affordable and portable device will add to the flexibility and desirability of the Apple iPad.

For building automation and sustainable energy usage, look forward to seeing a range of applications that together with third party devices and interfaces will be able to fully control a home automation system and entertainment components such as home theatre systems and televisions.
