Apple Maps

Apple Maps, digital map application "making problem" again. Having previously had a life threatening, Apple Maps is now re-branded "dangerous" after not being able to show accurate location where forest fires in the region of Victoria, Australia.

This was revealed directly by the Country Fire Authority (CFA), an organization for the volunteer fire department and the community in Victoria.

Quoted from Phone Arena, Thursday (02/14/2031), previously, the organization has released an application called FireReady. Through the application that uses map data from Apple Maps, users can report and view the location of wildfires in the state of Victoria.

Unfortunately, Apple Maps is not able to supply an accurate map data for this FireReady.

"Macedon (one city in Victoria) and several cities in the state of Victoria the other was not in the right location on the map application," said the firefighter.

When reports of a fire, firefighters also failed towards the right location for this map is not accurate.

5 Disease Detector Mobile Applications

5 Disease Detector Mobile Applications. The trend has also hit the world of mobile health. New technologies for the detection of Parkinson's disease using a mobile phone is being developed by The Parkinson's Voice Initiative, a project to help people with Parkinson's.

The project was initiated by a scientist Mathematics from the University of Oxford, England, named Max Little. He developed an algorithm to detect abnormal sounds that can help detect Parkinson.

Parkinson's is a degenerative neurological disease that primarily affects people over the age of 50 years. The disease is named according to the name of the inventor in 1817, namely Dr. James Parkinson. People with Parkinson's difficult to move due to muscle stiffness. Some of them even had dementia.

Symptoms of this disease are sometimes difficult to identify due to growing together and slowly. Most people, for example, began to feel shaky in some parts of the body when they are exhausted.

Max Little and his team have tested the applications made by them, as well as to detect the sound of people who suffer from Parkinson's. The level of accuracy is obtained, according to little, was as high as 86 percent. Currently, they are analyzed 10,000 samples collected voice over the telephone network.

Elsewhere, a variety of mobile applications is also developed to detect the disease. The Wall Street Journal reported, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center are testing 4 applications to analyze hundreds of pictures of moles and dark spots, which have previously been examined by a dermatologist.

The best application is able to detect skin diseases, including skin cancer, with an accuracy rate up to 98 percent. While most applications have only earned 6.8 percent accuracy rate. Unfortunately, the research conducted by these researchers did not mention the names of the applications they are testing.

Previously, there are mobile apps are being created to detect the disease in the lungs. Application called SpiroSmart developed by researchers at the University of Washington. SpiroSmart works by analyzing the sound of breathing users.

In addition to developing specific applications, researchers and scientists also utilize existing applications to detect disease. One of them is Twitter. Social media is used by researchers and computer scientists from Johns Hopkins University for the detection of influenza cases in the United States. They collect the chirp-chirp of flu neighbors Twitter users to map the location of the contracted flu epidemic.

In Indonesia, a mobile application for detecting the actual disease has also been developed. For example, MOSES, an acronym for "System and Endemic Obervation Malarian Surveliance". The app was created by a team of students of the Institute of Technology Bandung to diagnose malaria. The application was elected as the first winner in the category of Mobile Device Award, the Imagine Cup 2009 competition held by Microsoft Corp.

In essence, future trends point to the mobile world. A variety of health applications being developed aims to help people detect the disease and care for the environment.

Before it can be used by many people, of course there needs to be a serious and comprehensive research on the application and related diseases. But keep in mind; no matter how great an application to detect the disease, the application was not developed to replace the role of a doctor.

How to Select an iPhone from Its Capacity

How to Select an iPhone from Its Capacity. Since its initial launch in 2007, Apple always provides some capacity options for its iPhone devices. The first generation iPhone only has two capacity options, the 8GB and 16GB. While on Wednesday generation iPhone, iPhone 5, Apple has given three capacity options, 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB.

The price difference is big enough known to make prospective buyers confused. Many are wondering whether to buy an iPhone with the largest capacity, 64GB? Or, if the iPhone 5 16GB is enough?

To answer this question, there is no answer really sure. No one can really tell which product is most suitable capacity until you try all of these models and determine capacity needed through trial and error.

So, how to choose the most suitable capacity?

1. How many music files you want to save?

Most users use the iPhone as a digital music player. To be able to easily access the music all the time, most users store music files directly on the device.

How much music can be stored in each 1GB? To answer that question, let's make an assumption. For a music file with duration of 4 minutes, usually has a size of 4MB. Thus, one gigabyte in each device can store about 250 music files.

For the record, this is not an assumption that is really appropriate for a lot of music files have a size larger or smaller than 4MB. However, these calculations can give some idea how many songs can be stored in 1GB capacity.

There are ways that can properly give you an idea about the amount of required files. Users can make a list beforehand who wants to put music to the phone via iTunes. Once completed, iTunes will automatically deliver massive amounts of file playlist.

If the list again turns out to have a size greater than 10GB, you should choose iPhone users with up to 16GB capacity.

2. How many photos you want to keep?

IPhone 5 has a camera of 8 megapixel image sensor. The resulting images were quite well-known. Therefore, it is believed many users will take photos and videos using the camera.

There is no accurate way to determine the amount of file photos taken using the iPhone. However, let us return to make assumptions.

Photos taken with the iPhone 5 usually have a size of up to 2.3 MB or about 435 photos per gigabyte in the iPhone.

This figure is the number of very much that iPhone 16GB is considered enough to save tens of thousands of photos. Consumers actually can back up photos to cloud computing-based applications, such as Flickr, Google Drive, or Dropbox. After finishing backed up, users can delete the photos on the iPhone and the storage media will be back "relief".

Video requires a larger space than photos. Video with duration of 1 minute usually has a file size of 180MB. If you want to take a lot of video, you should choose the iPhone with a larger capacity.

3. How many applications you want to download?

All common applications, such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, have the file size is not too large. For example, Facebook has a size of 19MB, 10MB Twitter, and Google Maps 6.7 MB.

However, these measures will continue to grow if used frequently. For example, the application files size 339MB Twitter could evolve into after 1 year of use. This can happen because these applications store data, such as images that are on the timeline.

Applications with high graphics, such as games, usually have a larger file size.

In conclusion, if you want to store a lot of music files, songs, videos, and applications in the iPhone, you should choose a large capacity, which is between 32GB and 64GB.

However, if you are just browsing and reading email via phone, choose iPhone with the smallest capacity, 16GB.
