Super computer accessories

Along with the continuous development of computer technology, the accompanying accessories are also extremely rich and modern. Today, when it comes to computers, we not only envision the keyboard and mouse, but also come with high-tech 'toys' with amazing features.

Please introduce 'super-heavy' accessories that have changed the way people and computers communicate:

Game accessories

Computer games are the driving force behind improvements in the computer manufacturing industry. In 2009 alone, despite facing a significant decline in sales, the game industry still earned $ 538 million.

To meet the high demands of gamers, leading peripherals companies such as Logitech, Razer, and Mad Catz have released special computer mice to serve this group of customers. These are mice with very high sensitivity and accuracy, with many buttons with a multitude of separate functions. Some mice also allow users to customize the size to match the size of the hand.

Custom keyboard types are also available. Customers can choose either a keyboard containing only numeric keys, or a QWERTY keyboard with keys that can be swapped.

However, the pinnacle of gaming accessories must include the type of joystick or console. The price of these control devices is sometimes higher than the price of a computer set. But if you are a high level gamer in the 'school game' then this investment is also appropriate to protect your reputation.

3D glasses

NVIDIA's 3D GeForce glasses use a new technology that can better support today's popular 3D entertainment technology. The glasses are LCD monitors with the ability to control open (corresponding to the closed state) and off (transparent) with frequencies up to 120Hz, independent of two eyes. This requires the display to reach a high, optimal scan frequency above 100Hz, so there are only a handful of screens right now.

Wireless communication design, infrared waves have allowed 3D Vision freedom of movement and the ability of multiple glasses to connect with the receiver, sharing and 3D experience. The receiver also performs automatic signal synchronization, activates the glasses when entering 3D display mode and has a control wheel to fine tune the 3D depth while watching.

3D webcam

Minoru Camera (in Japanese means "reality") will record your images in front of the computer in 3D , and the recipient must use 3D glasses to view these images. Connect the webcam to the computer, the camera's eyes will glow and you will appear on the screen in vivid 3D images. Your friends and relatives will see you in 3D images with messages on yahoo, Skype, AOL . With the minoru you can also take 3D photos and videos.

Minoru connects to the computer via USB port like any other camera, software minoru will process the received image and take you to the computer screen in the 3D world.

Minoru can also shoot 2D movies, using the 2D function of the software toolbar.

3D printer

3D printers have been around for a decade, mainly used in industrial design workshops to test designs for cars, airplanes and other products before mass production. It works according to the mechanism of forming objects from a set of small physical points, similar to traditional printers that create images from ink dots. They form a model in a thin, multi-layer block, each made of a liquid or plastic crushed into a powder that can then be solidified by heat, light or chemicals.

To some extent, these 3D printers can be considered a versatile mold. Now Boeing engineers always use 3D printers to model hundreds of different details of the types of aircraft they need to research, even for details of the spacecraft engine.

" In the future, maybe people will use this kind of printer at home. You can print from toothbrushes, forks . to shoes, " Hod Lipson, a professor at the University. Cornell (USA), said.

3D mouse

3Dconnexion's 3D SpacePilot Pro mouse is a professional drawing support tool that can reduce up to 50% of clicks.

SpacePilot Pro is designed to be used in parallel with a normal mouse but on the left hand side. It has a cylindrical omnidirectional knob with 6-way sensor capability. When turning this knob, it will help you see every corner of the drawing with just simple movements like dragging, pushing, rotating and tilting. At the same time, it provides you with a very important hotkey system that is quick access keys to the viewing angles of the drawing with 6 main viewpoints / bottom / front / back / left / right.

The display supports the display in addition to letting you know the features that are being assigned to the keys on the mouse, also helps you see other information while working such as: browsing the Web (RSS), checking mail, calendar and jobs are written to Outlook.

SpacePilot Pro software and drivers are compatible with 130 common 2D / 3D drawing software applications in the world. They work with no preference for computer configuration, compatible with Linux or SuSE operating systems.

Keyboard using solar energy

The Logitech K750 keyboard model not only possesses advanced energy technology but also impresses by its exquisite design.

This device represents the trend of 'green' products that the computer industry has been moving toward in recent years. Case, pads are mainly made from recycled paper, driver disk, manuals are omitted, replaced by instructions to download software, information from the homepage.

The upper side of the Logitech K750 has two solar reception panels (or strong lights) that are symmetrical in the top position. These panels will absorb and transform the solar energy integrated into the battery cells inside the device. When fully charged, battery cells can help Logitech K750 maintain normal operation for nearly 3 months at a fully suppressed event.

Xynergi multifunction keyboard

The Xynergi Media Production Center keyboard, made by Fairlight, is a high-end audio processing tool for the production of video images in various audio formats. A special feature of this keyboard is that the label on the surface of the key will change rather than be fixed like a normal keyboard because a key can have many different functions for each type of work. For normal keyboards, the keys are made of plastic and painted with letters or symbols on the face. But for Xynergi, each key has an LED and it will change the label, the color corresponding to each application being used.

When switching functions used, the keys immediately change labels and functions with different colors. For example, when working in studio style, the keys display functions for recording such as recording (editing), editing, mixing (mixing), adjusting (set-up). . But when you switch to text input, the keys show the letters like a regular QWERTY keyboard. When switching from English to Japanese, the keyboard will display Japanese characters instead of English and vice versa .

In addition, Xynergi Media Production Center has many advanced functions for professional digital audio signal reception and processing.

Microsoft Kinect

Kinect is the official name of Project Natal, a device that brings the gaming experience without a controller that Microsoft has developed specifically for Xbox 360. As an additional device for X360, it allows users to control and interact with the X360 engine without touching the controller that controls the game through actions, commands, or available objects and images.

This is a very bold project to bring X360 beyond the threshold of a normal gaming machine.

Kinect can record and distinguish 6 people at a time including both players, and analyze the movement of 20 joints in each player.

Kinect was first introduced on June 1 at E3 2009 under the code name Project Natal. According to the tradition of naming the city for the code of Microsoft, Natal project is named after the city of Natal of Brazil to recognize Alex Kipman - who gave birth to the project Natal and also a native of Brazil. The name Natal is chosen because natal means ' a new life' , with Microsoft's implication being 'the birth of a new home entertainment system '.
