How To Back Up Laptop Drive?

laptop-backup

These days Backups have become necessity in digital world,whether, its of Laptop, Mobile, Tablet, Server or any other online databases. Now it have emerged into business to backup things — some companies give services to backup your data. Our’ Today’s topic is also similar and is about how to back up laptop drive?

As usual there are many ways to backup your Laptop Drive on Hard Drive, DVD Disc, Cloud Storage or on any other service. So let’s begin:

Back Up On External Hard Drive

hard drive backup

This is the simplest, affordable, less time consuming, clean and safest Back up option. You can Backup on external hard drive as its portable and can be connected to multiple computers or devices. Realistically, you need to buy quality portable External Hard Drive but and don’t go behind capacity.

Macintosh computers with Mac OS 10.5 or later have a backup application called Time Machine. You can use it to back up Laptop drive aka Mac’s Drive. On every Windows PC, Microsoft also provide Backup Tool and even you can use various other back up softwares available on the web. Well no one matches the Mac’s backup software, Time Machine quality. We have one recommendation if you want Time Machine like programming or options on Windows PC. You can use Genie Timeline Professional which is one of the best Time Machine clones out there, but it costs a hefty $59.95 for a single license.[divider]

Back Up On DVD / Super DVD / Blue Ray

dvd Data

Well this is time consuming procedure to back up laptop drive but not bad. Those whom’s laptops or ultra books even don’t have DVD writers can use USB sticks. You can backup your drive by inserting DVD or Super DVD in your writer. For Blue Ray discs you need special writers, so forget it. Backup at least once a month to ensure all your latest files are included on your disc. In order to backup on USB Stick you can simply drag and drop backup in it.[divider]

Back Up On Cloud Based Storage / Dropbox / FTP / Any Other

online Backup

We don’t see it as powerful tool as in some areas in the world internet speeds are much low. So it will be difficult to upload hefty backup files.

But most of the systems have good Internet connections and can store information on cloud based services. You can use Dropbox, Box.net and there are many other providers also premium ones available. These services include various features which allows you to simply automate backups, these set-and-forget services never run out of space and can back up data in real time, so you’re always covered.[divider]

Now its depends on what you need and what’s best for you. Now a days you can’t risk your data without any backup as anytime, any minute something can happen.

If you are looking for automated services and have good connection than i prefer to had over to cloud based services to back up laptop drive’s. You can even save backup in clouds without any money in your pocket as you can get desired space free of cost from various portals like, box.net, mega.co.nz, etc.

Still if you want to invest in backing up your devices or laptop than Hard Drive Backup is best option.

HTC One Review (HTC M7)

HTC One

Ahead of Mobile World Congress next week HTC announced its HTC One handset. HTC officially announced HTC one at two press events in London and New York. It is the High end phone from HTC with Ultrapixel camera, Zoe capture, full HD display with all new user interface HTC Sense 5 . Does the HTC One bring enough to the table to compete with the iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S3 and the Nokia Lumia 920? Lets see the features of HTC one in detail.

Design

HTC one built quality is very good its aluminium body feels great in the hand. It is rectangular, flat and extremely thin in shape. There are the small portions on above the display screen and below it for speakers. On the above side their is the fornt camera also for the video calls, etc. On the back side their is primary camera 4MP camera, company calls it Ultrapixel with flash.

HTC one design

It is the full metal design of HTC there are no plastic inserts, no plastic top or bottom. In the hand the HTC One is reassuringly solid. HTC removes the polycarbonate body from its design and now they are returning to one of HTC’s favourite materials, aluminium.

Hardware

HTC One has the 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor with 2GB of RAM.  There’s 32GB of storage, and 64 GB but there is not any Micro SD card slot. So you can’t expand storage capacity more, though you do get 25GB of Dropbox storage. It has an embedded 2,300mAh battery serves as the One’s power source. More importantly it runs on the latest version of Android 4.1.2 JellyBean and in HTC ONE company introduces all new version of its user interface with HTC Sense 5

HTC ONE processor

HTC One also has the new technology in camera which through more light on the sensor. Its camera is of 4 MP company calls it as the Ultrapixel.

 Software

android 4.1.2

HTC One runs on the second after latest version of Android 4.1.2 JellyBean along with newly introduced user interface HTC Sense 5 in the phone. HTC has addressed the biggest criticisms of its Android handsets i.e its main screen is not having only the widgets, it come with the main home screen which consists dynamic tiles that display content from a wide variety of news outlets, blogs, and Web sites which is quite different from the traditional Android phones. This New interface on the main screen is called as the Blinkfeed.

Camera

Coming on to the camera of the HTC One. Well its packed with the 4 MP Ultrapixel camera which shows the departure from the so called megapixel race and taken a different tack. It features updated ImageSense system, along with a revamped light sensor called the UltraPixel Sensor, technically it is able to capture a resolution of  2688×1520. HTC described and said, the actual size of the sensor is larger and the pixels it creates much more detailed.

We’ve written about the Ultrapixel sensor must checkout: What Is An Ultrapixel Camera And How It Is Better Than Others?

htc one camera

HTC One has all the other regular features like HDR shooting, panorama, 1080p video and so on. There’s also a new live mode called Zoe Camera that’s really exciting.

Verdict

We are impressed by the HTC One  so far. We thiink HTC Sense 5 is the right step in the right direction from the HTC.  HTC one also have the many other features like Zoe Camera, UltraPixel Sensor, Blinkfeed, etc.  The build quality is good but as i came to the Blinkfeed we can get the same experience by adding Flipboard or other widgets. Worse thing is that there’s no way to shut BlinkFeed off entirely.

HTC one will be available for customers in U.S.for $199.99 and $299.99 with respective company contracts in march 2013 and it is also expected that the phone will be available in India also in march for around Rs. 40,000. 

What Is An Ultrapixel Camera And How It Is Better Than Others?

what is ultrapixel camera

As we already know HTC has launched its new flagship device, HTC One along with 4MP Ultrapixel Camera. Other spec of HTC One includes a 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quadcore processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB or 64GB of onboard storage and dimensioning a 137.4 x 68.2 x 9.3mm body. It will be available after march 15 in almost 80 markets.

Many of the users, fans and followers of HTC are assuming that device’s camera is inferior as its shows only 4MP sensor. But guys that thing is not true as its 4MP Ultrapixel Camera. Don’t know? Not to worry as we are here to let you know the exact thing about Ultrapixel cameras. Let’s start off with

What Is Ultrapixel Camera?

Well term ‘Ultrapixel’ is not any registered term and so not relate to any scientific term. Than what it is? Example: Like  an Atom is divided into Electrons, Protons and Neutrons similarly we can relate Ultrapixels with Megapixel. As Megapixel refers to a million pixels and if we zoomify and cut down the pixels than the small pixels produced be can referred as UltraPixel.

ultrapixel camera more-light

Its the advanced imaging technology and can provide sharper and more color accurate images using three overlaid sheets of pixels on the sensor.

How Ultrapixel Camera Works? Is it better?

Ultrapixel Camera works with three overlaid sheets of pixels on the sensor which ultimately provides bigger pixel size over just total pixel count which can record more light and data on our photos display with more shades and greater color accuracy. There are many other technical things which works to give better image. To know what it features and what are those technical things see the features below.

Features Ultrapixel Camera:

[box_light]

Surface Area

HTC camera have surface area of 2.0 micrometer while 1.4 micrometer pixel is found on 8MP which results in the pristine level of clarity and detail.

[box_light]

F/2.0 Aperture

The HTC One uses an f/2.0 lens. This figure refers to the aperture, how big the lens’s light opening is. It’s better than the iPhone 5’s f/2.4 lens, and matches the Nokia Lumia 920.

[box_light]

Pixel Size And Sensor Size

HTC Ultrapixel Camera have the  ability to capture “300% more light than many of the 13 megapixel cameras on the market.” It have a CMOS BSI and is classified as having a 1/3? sensor size as that of  the Nokia Lumia 920 but the 920 has 8.7-megapixels compared to the HTC One’s 4MP. Its sensor size is equivalent to the sensor size found on other 8MP or 13MP smartphone cameras.

[/box_light]

The 4-megapixel camera on the HTC One outputs 2688 x 1520 images. The HTC One’s OIS works at an “unprecedented” frequency of 2000Hz and has been made small enough to fit inside the HTC One’s relatively thin chassis.

HTC one Have Better Camera?

It seems that HTC One is likely capture very good images with excellent dynamic range and low noise.As mentioned above image size will be of 2688 x 1520 resolution but e quality will be much better than standard cameras. Cuurently we are clear about its competition with iPhone 5 or Nokia PureView 808.

Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos Review

samsung galaxy grand duos

Again we are here with the new device, this time its Samsung Galaxy grand Duos I9082. It was launched last month after its announcement in december. We can explain this device in just one word and that is “midrange”. Even based in “midrange” category it is well-designed and built handset with an impressive spec sheet.

Only thing we don’t like about the device is its big screen (shorter than galaxy Note Series) which is of 5 inches but not HD as it gives 480 x 800 resolution only. So let’s start without wasting any time.

Design And Display

As mentioned above it has 5 inch Capacitive TFT Touchscreen with 16M colors. It can give resolution of upto 480 x 800 pixels having 187 ppi (pixel density). Overall my display experience with the phone is good. It gives sharp and crisp quality images on screen.

Hardware

Hardware of Galaxy Grand Duos is the best part of it. You can play games, internet surfing, do anything else without any lag. On papers its powered by Dual core processor, clocked at 1.2 GHZ with 1 GB of RAM. Its Soc is ARM Coretex-A9 MPCore which support NEON video decoding and ARM TrustZone technology. It has Broadcom Video Core IV graphics processing unit.

Its hardware looks to be excellent but not faster than the Galaxy S III or Note II. Its top notch phone at mid range price for all type of tasks.

Software

samsung galaxy grand duos reveiw 1

It runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean but there are no news about its upgrade to Android 4.2. You will get Google now, Project Butter, Multitask and all other luxuries of Android 4.1.2. Along with it user interface is tweaked with TouchWiz which is packed with in active task manager, active lock screen ticker, S Voice, S Note are pre installed, and motion activations, and camera launch from the lock screen.

Camera

Grand Duos 8 megapixels camera is backed up by Back-illuminated sensor (BSI) along with LED flash. Its image qiality inside and outside both are excellent. You can even shoot videos of 1920×1080 (1080p HD) resolution. Similarly like other features its camera User Interface is also much like Galaxy S3.

Even there is 2 MP front shooter also which is present for video chat there. Images taken by both the camera are good enough accordingly its sensor.

Additionally, if your device got some dust in Camera lens than check out our how to clean camera lens article.

Other features

There are many other features present in the 5 incher device. Its battery is of 2100 mAh which can give you backup of upto a day with normal usage.

In connectivity it supports 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz bands of GSM. While UMTS can work with band frequencies of 900, 1900, 2100 MHz. As it is 2G, 3G and 4G powered so it also have support for HSDPA+ (4G) 21.1 Mbit/s, HSUPA 5.76 Mbit/s, UMTS, EDGE, GPRS.

There are also as usual sensors like Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Compass along with Voice dialing, Voice commands, Voice recording features.

Verdict

Overall Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos is good device having all features which mid range device needs to have. We think its priced little bit higher accordingly its working, sensitivity and performance. It also have better build quality than its other brother and sisters in the same range. overall its a good deal priced at US $ 399 or INR 21000 in India.

What is GPS and its Various Types

gps types

GPS is the tracking unit which uses the global positioning system to track the locations of a person, a device, locates the vehicle, etc and records the position at regular intervals. The positioning of a person or a device through Internet and satellite unit embedded in the device. The system provides useful capabilities to military, civil and commercial users around the world. GPS plays an important role in the earth sciences. Meteorologists use it for weather forecasting and global climate studies; and geologists can use it as a highly accurate method of surveying and in earthquake studies to measure tectonic motions during and in between earthquakes. AS GPS is very popular now days with its presence in our gadgets it has various types.

Hardwired GPS system:

Hardwired GPS systems are usually used in the vehicle. It is basically used for the navigation to go at your destination.  These GPS tracking systems sometimes come with antennas that must be attached to the vehicle through which  the connection between satellite and your vehicle.

Personal GPS Trackers:

Personal GPS trackers are GPS tracking systems which look like small beepers or cell phones. The personal GPS trackers are usually used to locate the childrens, people , our pets. We can locate our child at any time and pets also .We can even locate our loved ones when they are stolen by somebody in no time. These types of the trackers are useful in our daily life.

Real-Time GPS Trackers:

The Real Time GPS Trackers are trackers which continuously gives the information abouth the location of the device or person. It is widely used for vehicle tracking by Transportation, Service and Utility companies as well as Police and Fire departments around the world.

As the technology upgrades now almost every gadget has the GPS capabilities these days. So today’s most popular technology of GPS is A-GPS it refers to  Assisted Global Positioning System. It addresses signal and network problems by using assistance from other services. Such technology in your cell phone can help you in various ways like tracking your current location, receiving turn-by-turn direction instructions, location based tracking, etc

What are Proximity Sensors, How They Work And Types?

what are proximity sensors

These days technology is advancing everyday with some kind of new inventions. Today One company launches a product with any new technology, several other starts booming up with different option in that same technology.

These days we are hearing of and using various kinds of sensors in our life. I’m here not talking about Human’s five sense organs, here we are talking about sensors. Sensors are also known as detectors which converts physical quantity and converts it to a signal. There are many types of Sensors invented for different type of particular work. Today our subject is Proximity Sensors, we gonna talk here about what actually it is, how it works and its types.  So without wasting any time let’s checkout

How Proximity Sensors Work?

When anything comes in the range of Proximity sensor it flash out infrared beam and monitors reflections. When sensor senses reflections it confirms that there’s an object nearby.

Working:

An Inductive Proximity Sensor consists of an oscillator, a ferrite core with coil, a detector circuit, an output circuit, housing, and a cable or
connector. The oscillator generates a sine wave of a fixed frequency. This signal is used to drive the coil. The coil in conjunction with ferrite core induces a electromagnetic field. When the field lines are interrupted by a metal object, the oscillator voltage is reduced, proportional to the size and distance of the object from the coil. The reduction in the oscillator voltage is caused by eddy currents induced in the metal interrupting the field lines. This reduction in voltage of the oscillator is detected by the detecting circuit.

What are Proximity Sensors

We can say that proximity sensor is a device which detects objects nearby without any physical contact up to nominal range or sensor’s vicinity. In brief we can also say that Sensors which convert information on the movement or presence of an object into an electrical signal are called proximity sensors.

In this there’s one more term you need to learn and that is sensing object – the object being sensed is defined as sensing object.

Types of Proximity Sensors

There are several types of proximity sensor which are used according to the need, material detection and many other things. To classify them here are its types:

Inductive Proximity Sensors 

inductive proximity sensors

Device which generates output signal or electrical signal when metal objects are either inside or entering into its sensing area from any direction. The metal objects above includes iron, aluminum, brass, copper, etc with varied sensing distances.

inductive proximity sensor range

Other factors which affect Proximity sensors: flat targets are preferable,  targets larger than the sensing face may increase the sensing distance. First inductive proximity sensor was introduced in the mid 60’s. [divider]

Capacitive Proximity Sensors

conductive proximity sensors

It can also detect metals but along with it can also detect resins, liquids, powders, etc. This sensor working can vary accordingly covering material, cable longness, noise senstivity. Its sensing distance also vary according to factors such as the temperature, the sensing object, surrounding objects, and the mounting distance between Sensors. Its maximum range of sensing is 25 mm.

[divider]

Magnetic Proximity Sensors

magnetic proximity sensors

Name is saying its sensing object – magnets. Magnetic Proximity Sensors have no electrical noise effect and it can work on DC, AC, AC/DC, DC. Again sensing distance can vary due to factors such as the temperature, the sensing object, surrounding objects, and the mounting distance between Sensors. This type of sensors have highest sensing range upto 120 mm.[divider]

These sensors has been used in various devices like mobile phones, tablets, security appliances, etc. These days its mostly used on mobile phones in order to make it more functional, responsive and useful.
