Fighting Fires and Speed Tickets with Google Glass at Wearable Computing Conference 2014 New York

New York City, NY, USA (January 22, 2014) -- According to CNN, Patrick Jackson has developed an app for Google Glass, Google's experimental head-mounted computer, which feeds important information directly to the eye-line of firefighters in an emergency. When a building is on fire, every second counts for the first responders rushing to the scene. This computer-savvy firefighter in North Carolina is hoping a bit of futuristic wearable technology and clever programming can help save time and lives, themes that will be covered at Golden Networking's Wearable Computing Conference 2014 (http://www.wearable-computing-conference.com), "How Wearable Technologies are Revolutionizing Mobile Wireless Internet, Healthcare and Fashion", forums to be held throughout 2014 in New York City (January 30), San Francisco (March 18), London (May 29), Seoul (September 25) and Munich (November 20).

By routing information directly to Glass, the app can save firefighters from having to stop what they're doing in order to reach for a radio, smartphone, tablet or computer. Jackson plans on adding even more useful data in future versions, like information on specific buildings including blueprints, potential building hazards and contact information for owners. A firefighter might be able to say an address out loud or simply look at a building with the Glass camera to retrieve information.

Glass can also record the first video of a situation when crews arrive. That early documentation will be important to fire investigations down the line. For now, Glass isn't compatible with the oxygen masks firefighters wear on the ground, so the app is more for external personnel. Jackson's Glass stays behind in the truck.

A self-taught programmer, Jackson first started tinkering with computers when he was 7 and later spent a year studying computer science in college before transferring to the University of North Carolina, Asheville, for an environmental management and policy program. He became a firefighter and didn't do much with computers for another decade. Then, about four years ago, he purchased a smartphone and was inspired to start programming again. "Since then I've taught myself way more than I ever knew about programming. I've developed an Android app, an iPhone app and a Glass app," Jackson said.

His first project was the Android app Firefighter Log, which similarly routed key information directly to the smartphone, including text messages from fire and EMS dispatchers, streams of emergency radio feeds, and location information for fires and nearby hydrants. Jackson says more than 20,000 people have downloaded the apps. To get his hands on Google Glass, Jackson submitted his idea to Google's IfIHadGlass competition. He raised money to cover the cost of the hardware through an Indiegogo campaign and received the device in September.

Other fire departments and researchers also are experimenting with wearable technology, thanks to a recent availability of affordable wearable sensors that can track vitals and environmental factors like air quality and temperature. The Wearable Advanced Sensor Platform, or WASP, can track a firefighter's location as well as physical data such as heart rate, breathing and activity levels in real time. A Belgium finalist for Microsoft's Imagine Cup created a system that combines location sensors and augmented reality glasses to help firefighters move around buildings when there is minimal visibility.

When he's not fighting fires or perfecting his app, Jackson is working on another possibly life-saving use for Google Glass: an app to help administer CPR. Using the built-in accelerometer in Glass, the app can measure how fast someone's chest compressions are and instruct the person to go faster or slower.

Why Wearable Technology is all but Fad at Golden Networking's New York Wearable Computing Conference

New York City, NY, USA (January 22, 2014) -- Is wearable technology truly destined for the great success that its many advocates might suggest? Hundreds of developers and enthusiasts about these technologies will converge at Golden Networking's Wearable Computing Conference 2014 (http://www.wearable-computing-conference.com), "How Wearable Technologies are Revolutionizing Mobile Wireless Internet, Healthcare and Fashion", forums to be held throughout 2014 in New York City (January 30), San Francisco (March 18), London (May 29), Seoul (September 25) and Munich (November 20).

According to Forbes contributor Georgiana Foster, for real success in the world of technology, entirely new products must be introduced that can create entirely new markets, thus impacting society on a much deeper level. At the moment, a lot of what she is seeing just doesn't do all that much. And for a trend that includes the word 'wearable' in its product description, she claims she honestly wouldn't be caught dead in a lot of it.

There seems to be a huge gap between what is being made and what the female consumer, in particular, would be willing to purchase, Foster continues. "Almost everything available is currently too chunky and masculine. The products seem to be aimed at men with a vague hope that (maybe) some women might like them. Let's think about who, between men and women, is more likely to wear an accessory, or even multiple accessories at the same time to begin with. Surely the answer is transparently obvious."

Design needs to be a much more important factor when it comes to wearable technology, in order for it to appeal to absolutely everyone, including women. Foster can't help but wonder if it's a case of the tech industry simply needing more female designers? But even more crucially, these products need a real use and purpose. In this new digital age, what a brand actually means is just as, if not more, important to the consumer than simply what it does. It doesn't take a genius to predict that the brand that manages to reach equilibrium between style and substance holds the key to tech world domination, she concludes.

NanoMarkets Announces the Release of New Report, "Markets for Metal Meshes as Transparent Conductors 2014"

Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has released a new report on the transparent conductor (TC) market that claims that metal meshes will generate $327 in revenues in 2020.

Glen Allen, Virginia (January 22, 2014) -- Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has released a new report on the transparent conductor (TC) market that claims that metal meshes will generate $327 in revenues in 2020. According to NanoMarkets, metal meshes have overcome the technical issues that had previously limited their expansion into a variety of TC applications and are poised to become a strong niche contender among the choice of ITO alternatives.

For additional information about the report please visit http://www.nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/markets-for-metal-meshes-as-transparent-conductors-2014.

About the Report:

NanoMarkets is issuing this special industry analysis report on the markets for metal meshes. This report contains a granular seven-year forecast of the metal mesh market, with break outs by volume and value and the type of application.

We also discuss the strategies of the growing number of metal mesh manufacturers, many of which have recently reported performance improvements in recent months. This report takes a look at all these companies and evaluates their offerings, capabilities, and readiness for volume production.

Companies addressed include 3M (United States), Atmel (United States), Dai Nippon Printing (Japan), Epigem (UK), Fujifilm (Japan), Gunze (Japan), Hitachi Chemical (Japan), JTOUCH Corporation (Taiwan), Mirae Nanotech (Korea), O-film Tech Co. (China), PolyIC (Germany), Rolith (United States), Toppan (Japan), UniPixel (United States), Visual Planet (UK), Young Fast (Taiwan) and Zytronic (United States)

From the Report

The use of metal meshes as transparent conductors has increased in the past year and NanoMarkets believes that the technology will continue to gain market share. The greatest opportunity today is in touch screen display sensors, but the firm expects OLED lighting and PV technologies to take on a greater importance toward the end of the forecast period. Other applications that can use metal meshes are transparent EMI shielding, where printed meshes can replace etched copper grids, and transparent heating films, where metal-based TCs have the advantage of faster heating rates than ITO.

Metal meshes have overcome the technical issues that previously limited their expansion into a variety of TC applications, and many suppliers are entering the market. NanoMarkets also believes that metal meshes are now easier to manufacture than competing alternative transparent conductors.

In NanoMarkets' estimation metal meshes do have a role to play in the future of the TC market as a strong transparent conductor in several applications. However, the firm cautions that the metal mesh market should be viewed as a niche market that will take years to develop. In the firm's latest report, NanoMarkets projects that metal meshes are forecast to make up only 0.3 percent of the total TC market this year, building to 7.2 percent by the end of the forecast period.

About NanoMarkets:

NanoMarkets tracks and analyzes emerging markets in energy, electronics and other area created by developments in advanced materials. The firm is a recognized leader in industry analysis and forecasts of in the transparent conductor industry.
