Motorola Bends a Phone, and Debuts Smart Connect

 Late last year at Lenovo’s Tech World event, Motorola unveiled a bendable concept phone called the Adaptive Display. I got a chance to play around with it at MWC. It looks and feels like its Razr folding phone, except instead of having a hinge that snaps the phone closed precisely in half, you can bend the whole thing backward.

It can rest on a table in this arched position, enabling two people sitting across from each other to use the screen. For example, two people can watch a movie together; I watched two people play a quick game of Connect 4. There’s also a magnetic band you can wear that the phone clips to—wrap the device over your wrist and now you have a smart bracelet (of sorts). The interface adapts to show information on the top part of the screen. It’s fun and wacky, but I have to admit it looks quite janky.

Last year’s concept phone from Motorola was Rizr, which had a screen that rolled up to extend the display size despite the small design—I dare say I’d rather it be put into production than the bendy thing.

Motorola also announced a new software feature in conjunction with its parent company, Lenovo, called Smart Connect. This is an evolution of its Ready For platform, which enabled you to wirelessly connect a Motorola phone to nearby displays to stream apps, use the phone’s camera as a webcam, and share files. Smart Connect expands on these features and will be available on Windows laptops via the Microsoft Store.

 If you have a compatible Lenovo tablet or a Motorola smartphone, you can then seamlessly move your apps between the screens, very much like Apple’s Universal Control feature. You can even use the laptop’s keyboard and mouse on the tablet and phone.

Lenovo and Motorola aren’t the only companies that showed off something like this—Honor had the same functionality with its laptop, phone, and tablet.

SpaceX completes 300th Falcon booster landing during Starlink mission

  S paceX completed a Falcon 9 launch, highlighted by the company’s 300th booster landing to date. The Starlink 6-53 mission also marked the 30th orbital launch from Florida in 2024. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station happened at 6:17 p.m. EDT (2217 UTC). The 45th Weather Squadron forecast a greater than 95 percent chance of favorable weather at liftoff. The Falcon 9 first-stage booster supporting this mission, tail number B1078, made its ninth launch on this flight. It previously launched NASA’s Crew-6 mission to the International Space Station, USSF-124, and five Starlink flights. About eight and a half minutes after liftoff, B1078 landed on the SpaceX droneship, ‘Just Read the Instructions.’ In addition to this being the 300th Falcon booster landing overall, it was the 79th landing for JRTI and the 233rd droneship landing to date. The 23 Starlink satellites onboard this mission add to the 5,851 currently in orbit, according to astronomer a...

NASA’s Newest Spaceplane: Dream Chaser Tenacity Arrives at Kennedy Space Center

  SOURCE - https://www.space.com/dream-chaser-space-plane-tenacity-tour.html Sierra Space’s Dream Chaser Tenacity, part of NASA’s initiative to enhance commercial resupply missions to the International Space Station, arrived at Kennedy Space Center for its first mission. After rigorous pre-launch testing, it is scheduled to deliver 7,800 pounds of cargo using a ULA Vulcan rocket. As part of NASA’s efforts to expand commercial resupply in low Earth orbit, Sierra Space’s uncrewed spaceplane arrived at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida ahead of its first flight to the International Space Station (ISS). The Dream Chaser spaceplane, named Tenacity, arrived at Kennedy on May 18 inside a climate-controlled transportation container from NASA’s Neil Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio, and joined its companion Shooting Star cargo module, which arrived on May 11. Pre-Launch Testing and Preparation Before arriving at Kennedy, the spaceplane and its cargo module underwent vibration ...
