Strange ants demonstrate the invisible power of our smartphones

October 28, 2015 by Andrew 1 Comment

The video starts off with an iPhone sitting right in the middle of a stream of ants. There’s about 300 making their way around the device.

You’ll see what happens when the phone starts to ring.

The ants form into a circle and make their way anti-clockwise around the device. Ants navigate with sigh but also vibration and magnetism so something like a magnetic speaker in the phone could disrupt their inertial navigation or perhaps the vibrations from the phone were strong enough.

Why do you think the ants reacted to the ringing iPhone like this?

HTC’s Power to Give is incredible

February 24, 2014 by Andrew Leave a Comment

A round of applause for HTC.

Today at Mobile World Congress they’ve announced a new app called “Power to Give”. The app runs when your phone is on wi-fi and when it is plugged in and charging. Why? This makes sure it doesn’t drain your battery or eat your data.

What does Power to Give do? It uses your phone to help solve very real and very serious problems. Your smartphone is given a little bit of data to process while you’re not using it and then your smartphone hands the answers back.

Doesn’t sound impressive? All those smartphones working together could have the same power as a super computer. In other words; you can use your phone, without any bother or cost to yourself, to make the world a better place.

Are you tempted to download and install the app?
