Samsung 'Orbis' Tizen Smartwatch to Feature Wireless Charging: Report

 

 

 

After its brief appearance a couple of weeks ago, Samsung's rumoured round dial smartwatch, said to be codenamed Orbis, has once again come under the spotlight but this time along with some information on one of its key features

.

To recall, Samsung Orbis is the South Korean firm's yet-to-be-announced smartwatch which is said to feature a round dial and run on Tizen OS. The leak that came couple of weeks ago was based on Samsung's patents that were filed back in 2013. The patents showed the South Korean firm working on a rotating ring technology on its smartwatch.

 

The latest report from Sammobile suggests the Samsung Orbis smartwatch will come equipped with wireless charging feature, which has been missing from all the company's previously launched wearables. The details on wireless charging implementation are yet to be known. However, its mechanism is speculated to be similar to what Motorola uses for the Moto 360. There is no information on other features of the watch as of now.

      Learn More Evaluation of Wearable Head BCG for PTT Measurement in Blood Pressure Intervention
      Managing hypertension and cardiovascular risk demands frequent and accurate blood pressure monitoring. Traditional cuff-based methods, however, have limitations in their portability and real-time measuring aspect.

      Samsung Research America has proposed a new system that enables continuous blood pressure tracking using an over-the-ear wireless wearable device. The system uses sensors to capture both ballistocardiography (BCG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) signals, and calculate the pulse transit time (PTT) by combining these two bio-signals. Learn about the potential of a future healthcare solution that lets you track blood pressure with everyday wireless earphones on the Samsung Research blog.

      Learn More CheapNVS: Real-Time On-Device Novel View Synthesis for Mobile Applications
      Novel View Synthesis (NVS) is an innovative technology as it lets you reconstruct a scene from various perspectives. However, as NVS requires a lot of computation, it relies heavily on high-performance GPUs or cloud servers. Accordingly, it has limitations related to the cost, and is difficult to apply in real time on mobile devices.

      In order to tackle these issues, Samsung R&D Institute United Kingdom presents CheapNVS, a lightweight NVS system based on neural networks that you can run even on your smartphone. This model takes in a single input image and a new camera pose, and then leverages hardware-friendly network design to both perform image warping and then inpainting to fill in the occluded areas. With its novel parallelizable NVS formulation, it manages to speed-up execution while avoiding the use of costly structures such as multi-plane images. CheapNVS, implementable without complex 3D modeling or expensive computations, is a next-generation technology that can be used for a variety of mobile applications including video calls and 3D image conversion. It is more lightweight than conventional methods by a factor of 20 or more, running quickly and efficiently even on mobile SoC environments. Learn more about this innovative technology on the Samsung Research blog.

      Tizen OS apps
      By Sau
      Hello,
       
      I have Samsung TV (qe55q80datxxh) with Tizen OS and unfortunately it doesn’t find necessary apps on its store. I.e. App called “TV Zone” (https://tvzone.app) - it supports Tizen OS, but on Samsung store it is not visible. Is there any way to install this app in Samsung via store or like a third party app using usb stick (is it even possible?)?
      Txanx!

      Samsung Extends Tizen Smartphone to Bangladesh
      By Alex
      Three weeks ago, the company released in India the Samsung Z1, its first smartphone powered by Tizen, a homegrown alternative to Google Inc.’s Android operating system.
       
      This week, Samsung is pushing the Samsung Z1 into Bangladesh, a neighbor of India with more than 150 million people and a similarly low rate of smartphone penetration.
       
      After several missteps and rethinks, Samsung’s strategy for its Tizen smartphones is taking a clear shape: the company is aiming the fledgling platform squarely at first-time smartphone users, many of whom may not even have a bank account. The Samsung Z1 is selling in India for about $90.
       
      To that end, Samsung has been touting the “lightweight” nature of the Tizen operating system, meaning that it requires relatively little computing power and can handle most tasks without requiring pricey high-end specifications.
       
      That same lightweight approach has also allowed Samsung to use Tizen as the platform for many of the devices it is hoping will populate its “connected home,” from televisions to smart watches and home appliances.
       
      Despite concerns that Samsung’s new smartphone would face stiff competition in India, where several local handset makers are touting low-end smartphones — some of them in partnership with Google — Samsung says that its Tizen smartphones have received “positive responses” there.
       
      Positive enough, it seems, to at least push Tizen into a second country.

      No native Strava mobile app for Tizen OS smartphones
      By maljaros
      There is no native Strava mobile app for Tizen OS smartphones, so what app could be used for tracking trail run and cycling activities on a Samsung Z4? Or is there a "non-native" route to Strava itself?
      Thank you, Maljaros
