The three-camera are sitting within a circular module in the back of the phone with a LED flash. 
Though the official website does not say anything about releasing its OnePlus 7T series, it is all over the news after Pricebaba.com revealed a video with key specifications. 
This smartphone, as usual, will be powered by Snapdragon Chipset(SDM855+). Though much specification is unknown, the phone is expected to come with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB of non-expandable storage. The pictures surfaced on the internet, the screen seems to be full HD plus Optic AMOLED panel.

The smartphone measures 161.2 x 74.5 x 8.3 mm. There is a single non-movable selfie camera inside the waterdrop notch.

Contact Lenses Can Help You Zooming In By Blinking

 
Contact Lenses Illustration

Technology never fails to amaze us: it leaves us in awe in every moment pass by. We are now into that stage of the future where the human eye can zoom in by just blinking with the help of a tiny contact lens. Yes,  you heard it right. Few Scientists from the University of California San Diego claimed to discover this fantastic technology. 

The bio-metric lenses will be driven by signals generated by the movements of the eyeballs. In simple words, the eyeballs' movements (left, right, up, down) have been studied and converted into some meaningful signals, called electrooculographic signals. Those meaning signals charge will be fed to the bio-metric lenses, which will respond to those. The polymer-made lenses will expand or contract depending upon the electric impulses fed to them, and when they become more convex, they resulted in zooming in. It is reported that blinking twice of the eye will make the lenses zoomed in.

The more advancement of this technology can be used in "visual prostheses, adjustable focal length glasses or maybe in remotely operated robotics in the future," as quoted by a researcher of the said University. Lead researcher Shengqiang Cai further added, “Even if your eye cannot see anything, many people can still move their eyeball and generate this electrooculographic signal.”
For the time being, five electrodes are connected to the lens that will act as muscles. Scientists hope this technology shortly can be used to control mobile cameras remotely. 
Let us hope for the best and greatest.

All About Reon Pocket: Wearable Mini AC

An AC that accompanies you wherever you go. Sounds mind-boggling, right? However crazy the idea might seem to be, it is now made possible by Sony, who have come up with an innovative portable AC that can be worn with your clothes. The portable AC, called Reon Pocket, is smaller and lighter than a mobile phone. Sony says it has used the Peltier effect for this AC- a mechanism used in car and wine coolers. This device can be worn on the back or neck with dedicated inner-wears available in S, M, and L.

It releases cool air through a small rear panel. The device is equipped with a lithium-ion battery which can last for 90 minutes with two hours of charging. The temperature can be controlled by a smartphone which will be connected to the device via BlueTooth. Reon Pocket supports Bluetooth 5.0. This portable AC will cost about Rs 9000, which includes the price of inner-wears also. Currently, it is available only in Japan. Moreover, the dedicated inner wears are available for men only.
This mini AC might solve the discomfort caused when stepping out in the scorching heat of summer.
