Google is working on its new Android TV. It is suppose to be more user friendly and useful than the previous, Google TV. It is suppose to be an interactive entertainment device with a recommendation system for automatic content recommendations. The news for this has come out now that Apple has launched its Fire TV. Google has begun hiring app producer for the TV, but it is unknown when it will be put into production.

iPhone Attachments



Just like the app market, the iPhone attachment market is wildly popular and growing. You can attach a thermometer, a tool box, and tons of other things to your phone. One of them being  Occipital's Structure Sensor which allows you to scan rooms or object. You can use it to obtain measurements or even use it to digitally rearrange the furniture in your living room. Another interesting attachment is a little projector that can be attached to display pictures or videos from your phone. The small projector snaps right onto your phone for easy use anywhere you need it.

Interesting App

There are constantly new apps flooding the market with every use anyone could ever imagine and now there is one designed to help the visually impaired. The app, EyeMusic SSD, is designed to help recognize shapes and colors through sound. The app displays the shape or color and associated music begins to play. The app takes some practice to differentiate the music. It is an interesting concept.
