The hull ultrasound Galaxy Core

In the manner of the hull ultrasound developed by Samsung for the Galaxy Core, it would seem that the company repeated the experience for future Galaxy Note 4 Our colleagues at SamMobile have indeed recovered the instructions for use of the hull. This would allow the Galaxy Note 4 to assist the visually impaired. The idea: hull emits ultrasound that identify objects that would stand on the way to the user. Return (sound?) Would be present on the Galaxy Note 4 to alert the user to the presence of an object.

The user can modify the behavior of the shell specifying the scope of Ultrasound: near, medium or long . However, the operating range, and the less the ultrasound signal is wide. Written by Samsung manual says, however, that this accessory is not made to replace a cane or a guide dog. The company wants to surely protect themselves from possible attacks to justice if the product is malfunctioning. But the intention of Samsung is really good if it is clear the future product update. smartphones would become valuable and useful tools are no longer “just” phones that can surf and play.

The usefulness of any smartphone is increasingly as seen with the attempt by Google (with Google Fit), Samsung (with Simband) or Apple to bring the equipment in the medical field . The pulse sensors are currently restricted to personal and rather athletic use. But in a few years, it is likely that they will keep in touch with her doctor so connected . This is what Apple tries to do with Health by allowing doctors to access patient data from the cloud.
