The 8th anniversary of the birth of Iphone: interpretations of what is real innovation

This year's CES show has released a lot of new products, but people should remember that a real change in the world of what the product is. Eight years ago, Steve • Jobs (Steve Jobs) in Los Angeles issued a first-generation iPhone, which indicates that the rise of the PC's death and smartphones

iPhone more popular it? In 2006, that is, the year before the launch of iPhone, Apple's full-year revenue of 19.3 billion dollars, which is the sum of all Apple products revenue. And last week, the technology blog Gigaom founder ohm • Malik (Om Malik) said, UBS Investment Research expects fourth quarter 2014, sales on the iPhone alone generated more than 43 billion US dollars in revenue. For comparison, the chip maker Intel's sales in 2014 are expected to only $ 55 billion. Network equipment giant Cisco reported fiscal 2014 revenue of only $ 47 billion.

Since the iPhone and its many imitators seize the consumer electronics market, sales of the injured is not just PC, TV's in decline, sales of camera in decline. After the smartphone can achieve most of the functionality of these products, other electronic products have become less important.

At the same time, the whole world are connected iPhone smartphone inseparable established norms. No there is no taxi iPhone application Uber. In a world where there is no smart phone, Facebook is still just a PC-based browser service, who was used as an office all day diary tool. Twitter messages can only be a tool to tell a friend where you are. Also be able to remain king of the World Wide Web.

But the fact is that Apple recently said that Apple's App Store has come up more than 10 billion US dollars in revenue back to the application developer. According to market share, Google Android is now perhaps the world's largest mobile operating system, but allows developers to earn income in this regard, Apple has established a goal of catching Android.

Apple's Steve Jobs has been around during the appearance of the first generation iPhone to make a fuss, and gradually improve the allocation in an effort to better it. Larger screen iPhone 6 Plus subvert all this, it is no longer widely regarded as a big step forward. Even if there is no progress, but Apple's predicament highlights what kind of things are eligible to be called innovation, this word has been abused in the technology industry, but with the iPhone body is deserved. If there is no iPhone, 2015 year we may still use the Sidekick and Treo phone

Solar Power Battery Storage System Solar power battery has a high operating voltage, high energy density, a series of unique advantages of long cycle life, environmental protection and so on. And supports stepless extension. After the composition of the energy storage system for large-scale energy storage. Solar storage batteries  energy storage system consists of Solar power battery group, a battery management system (Battery Management System, BMS), commutation devices (rectifiers, inverters), central monitoring system, transformers and other components, as shown in FIG. Solar power battery energy storage system of energy conversion principles. Charging stage, intermittent power supply or power grid as the energy storage system is charged, the AC to DC rectifier rectifier after charging the battery energy storage module to store energy; discharge phase, the energy storage system to the grid or the load is discharged, the battery energy storage module through the inverter DC to AC inv

China 2015 mass production of graphene lithium or subvert the electric car industry

Image
December 26, 2014, the US electric carmaker Tesla released an updated version of the discontinued two years ago, the first generation model Roadster, the mileage of 644 km, 60% higher than the original.   Advances in battery technology to enhance the performance of the Tesla product, after Roadster Mileage is 393 km. Tesla CEO Musk said Tesla high-performance graphene battery, compared to the current capacity increase of nearly 70 percent. British scientists have invented graphene after 10 years, the application of the battery with great breakthrough. In early December, the Western media reported that Spain and the Spanish company Graphenano Cordoba University to develop graphene battery, a charging time of just eight minutes, can travel 1000 km. It is graphene researchers called "super cell." "We still understand the situation, the specific situation in Spain is proving such a battery, if this is confirmed, it is indeed a revolutionary c

Why Lithium Polymer Battery So Popular

Image
The lithium-ion battery electrolyte material different from the lithium-ion battery is divided into liquid lithium-ion battery (Liquified Lithium-Ion Battery, referred to as LIB) and lithium-ion polymer battery (Polymer Lithium-Ion Battery, referred to as the PLB) with lithium or plastic ion battery (Plastic Lithium ion batteries, referred to as the PLB). Anode and cathode materials used in lithium-ion polymer battery with liquid lithium-ion is the same, divided into cathode material of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide,  LifePo4 batteries  ternary materials and materials, graphite is extremely negative, the battery works basically consistent. The main difference lies in the different electrolytes, liquid lithium-ion battery using a liquid electrolyte, lithium-ion polymer battery Zeyi solid polymer electrolyte to replace, such polymers can be "dry state", it can be "colloidal" currently most using a polymer gel electrolyte. Classification Solid: The
