Nokia Dares to Tame Thunder Lighting to Charge Mobile Phones

"Do NOT use your mobile phone in an open area when its raining with thunder lighting" - the general instruction we hear almost from every wellwisher in a rainy season. Using a mobile phone in thunder lighting is considered as equal to as attempting a suicide.

In your wildest of imaginations did you ever thought of harnessing the thunder lighting to charge your smartphone?? I guess no infact a big NO. 

But Nokia not only imagined to tame the thunder lighting but actually has started to lay the foundation together with University of Southampton to use the natural lighting for personal use.

Using a phone in thunder lighting may kill you today but tomorrow it may charge your smartphone in a flash.

Wow! many of us must be feeling goose bump by just imagining it and i wonder people will go crazy if this will be done successfully.

Nokia in this regard said “That the Nokia Lumia 925 could withstand this sort of experiment is testament to the renowned high quality and durability of Nokia’s devices and the company’s continuing research to increase the already outstanding reliability of its products,” the company said

Now Secure your iPhone using your fingerprints

Apple’s new iPhone 5S fingerprint sensor

Apple has introduced its latest iPhone called the iPhone 5s where s stands for sensor and is similar to iPhone5 in design and dimensions with a faster processor, an improved camera and completely new feature called Touch ID: a sensor that scans user’s finger and verifies the identity to lock or unlock the phone.

About Touch ID

This fingerprint sensor, developed by AuthenTec (a Florida based company acquired by Apple last year) is a thin circle around the device’s existing home button which scans and verifies user’s fingerprint and then locks or unlocks the phone. The sensor and its security technology were the major reason why Apple acquired AuthenTec for $356 million. 

According to Apple, users will be able to scan up to 5 individual fingers to authorize access on iPhone 5s. To set up the system users have to repeatedly press their finger against the sensor from different angles, allowing the system to accurately get a three-dimensional scan of the surface of their finger. 

You can also purchase music and apps on Apple’s iTunes with Touch ID.

"Your fingerprint is one of the best passwords in the world," said Dan Riccio, Apple's senior vice president for hardware design. "It's always with you, and no two are exactly alike." According to Riccio, fingerprints are encrypted and are stored on the phone itself and not in the cloud or Apple’s servers. The encrypted fingerprint data is stored on iPhone 5s A7 system on a chip. The data is discarded if device is rebooted or has been left unused for more than 48 hours, at this point users will have to simply re-enter their passcode.
