The LG V30, G6, and Q6 are set to receive support for Sensory’s TrulySecure facial recognition technology, the Santa Clara, California-based company announced on Monday. The benefits of the newly unveiled collaboration will soon allow owners of the LG G6, Q6, and the upcoming V30 flagship to use an advanced facial recognition solution powered by robust artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and related anti-spoofing algorithms which are meant to deliver an authentication service that’s extremely convenient while simultaneously being significantly more secure compared to its direct alternatives, according to its creators. Sensory claims that its facial verification methods have an accuracy rate of approximately 99.999 percent and are industry-leading as far as commercial applications of mobile biometric authentication mechanisms are concerned.
Another major selling point of TrulySecure comes in the form of its basic requirements, with the service being able to work with ordinary smartphone camera modules and not warranting specialized hardware, thus being relatively suitable for implementation into third-party devices. The biometric data which the platform uses to authenticate the user is only stored locally and is never uploaded to the cloud, making the solution as secure as possible, the company claims. Furthermore, TrulySecure was specifically designed to work even when a small part of the user’s face is obscured by an ordinary accessory like a pair of glasses, which is another feature that Sensory claims puts its solution ahead of the competition. Apart from support for TrulySecury, LG’s smartphone trio is now also compatible with Sensory’s TrulyHandsfree and TrulySecure Speaker Verification, providing users with the option of securely waking or unlocking their device with a short voice command. The benefits of those two technologies are the same as the ones Sensory lists in the context of its mobile facial recognition service.
Sensory’s partnership with LG Electronics marks the latest step in the company’s efforts to expand its service portfolio to more devices, with the firm already having an extensive collaboration with Samsung Electronics, LG’s domestic rival and the largest smartphone vendor in the world. As for its new partner, the South Korean original equipment manufacturer has yet to attach a firm release date to the LG V30, though the recently unveiled Android flagship is widely expected to become available for purchase by mid-October.

Hi Inc S communiuty,
Just came through the petition raised by famous GSMArena.com for designing the Smaller devices (Around 4-4.3" Inch) with same powerful feature as their High End Devices. If you guys feels to support, Below is the link to sign it.
CLICK HERE FOR PETITION
Over the last few years, Android has taken the smartphone world by storm, climbing to the top spot in just about every major market out there. The Google platform offers a mix of features that can't be matched by any of its competitors and is offered on hardware so diverse that it has covered almost every conceivable market segment.
However, with recent trends in flagship droids, we feel there's a substantial group of users that is being ignored. As Android top dogs all choose huge screens for their high-end offerings, those looking to experience the most capable hardware in a mid-sized smartphones are left out in the dry. Despite the large number of companies committed to the Android cause, there's not a single manufacturer to come up with a handset to match the raw power and display brilliance of the Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One or Sony Xperia Z in a shell that's as easy to pocket as, say, the Apple iPhone 5.
Now, that's not to say that Apple's approach is better than those of its Android counterparts or that large smartphones are in any way bad. The market performance of all those flagships speaks loud enough and there are a number of reasons why super capable hardware makes more sense on larger displays.
However, we firmly believe there is a huge number of people who would gladly trade screen estate for portability as long as that doesn't involve further compromises. As things currently stand, replacing your large Android flagship with a mid-size phone will mean you have to live with a chipset of less than half the processing power and a display with quality and density way below the high-end standard.
Here are what we believe will be the most important boxes that such a device needs to check.
Footprint and profile similar to Motorola RAZR i or Apple iPhone 5
A 4.2" display of at least 720p resolution (1080p would be an overkill on this size)
Top-of-the line chipset (Snapdragon 600, Exynos 5 Octa, Tegra 4)
Adequate camera
That's definitely not too much to ask as using current technology it's perfectly possible to create such a smartphone. We are certain that a large part of the reason why manufacturers haven't invested enough effort in the development of such smartphones is the false assumption that there's not enough demand for it.
That's why we've started an online petition, which we hope will help convince large Android OEMs to pay proper attention to the mid-size market segment. If you share our dream of seeing a properly powered mid-size Android smartphone with all the bangs and whistles of the aforementioned flagships, you can help our cause by following this link and signing our online petition.
If it gains traction, we'll make sure to share it with all our manufacturer contacts and draw as much attention to it as possible. Not even the best performing companies out there can afford to ignore requests singed by thousands of people, so you if you feel as strongly about this issue as we do, we urge you to make your voice heard!

LG and Samsung gear up for the next bout of flexible display technology
By: Robert Triggs, March 31 2014 - 9:05AM EDT
Samsung and LG are on the cutting edge of what could become a popular future trend – curved and flexible display smartphones.*The two companies have already released their first generation curved displays, the LG G Flex and the Samsung Galaxy Round. We conducted our own comparison between the two curved handsets at the end of last year. But where is the future of flexible displays heading?
According to industry insiders, who recently spoke with ETNews, LG Display will be focusing on reducing the size of its flexible displays and improving various display aspects, such as resolution, this year. On the other hand, Samsung Display is said to be developing a variety of forms of flexible AMOLED, with the aim of making the design the game changer.
Looking at LG specifically, the company’s flexible display technology is currently suffering from poorer specifications that Samsung’s equivalent. Desipite the larger display size, the LG G Flex could only muster*a 720p resolution and a pixel density of 245 ppi. Samsung’s Galaxy Round, on the other hand, managed a 1080p resolution, resulting in a pixel density of 386 ppi.
LG AND SAMSUNG ARE EXPECTED TO UNVEIL NEW CURVED SMARTPHONE DESIGNS LATER THIS YEAR.
This year, LG is planning to reduce the size of its flexible display down to 5.5 inches, whilst upping the resolution to FullHD (1080p). LG is also reportedly working to improve heating issues with its OLED design.
“Our goal is to enhance product performance a notch or higher across the board.”*LG insider
An interesting point to note is that Samsung’s AMOLED display found in the Galaxy Round isn’t actually “flexible” in the same sense as LG’s, which might explain why Samsung’s technology retains familiar specifications. As a result, Samsung’s future plans are quite different. Samsung is said to be experimenting with various curved designs, in both the horizontal and vertical planes, as well as designs involving*curved edges.
Whilst LG focuses on improving its existing flexible display technology, Samsung is testing out a wider range of designs and uses.
According to industry insiders, Samsung Display has decided to develop a product incorporating various types of curvature, which should be making its way into a future smartphone. Samsung believes that it will be the design that will determine the success or failure of its flexible AMOLED technology.
Both LG and Samsung are expected to unveil new curved smartphone designs later this year.
But hold on, we’re not close to this being a widespread technology, not yet at least. According to research firm IHS, LG Display and Samsung Display’s flexible AMOLED production capacity reached 20,000 sheets per month last year, from various production lines and display sizes. There’s no chance that current production yields could keep-up if the technology was to be used in a flagship smartphone. Low yields, high prices, and other component development costs are still limiting the production of units and availability for use in products.
“For the time being, flexible displays will not be found on smartphones very often.”*Kang Min-soo, IHS Researcher
The other half of the issue is whether or not consumers really care about curved displays. Despite being able to output around 240,000 sheets per year, Samsung and LG have only managed combined sales of less than 100,000 curved displays so far. This figure includes a range of technologies, including TVs. Perhaps new smartphones or wearables could help boost these sales figures, but for the time being flexible and curved displays will probably remain a niche.
Do you think that curved and flexible designs are the future for smartphones or wearables, or have you been unimpressed with this first generation of products?

I really hope they don't reduce the screen size of the next flex. That's one of the things I like about the g flex is the big 6inch screen.

I think 5.5in might be perfect. I'm thinking battery life probably won't be as good with 1080p. So people will complain about that. lol
Go down to 5.5? That bites
Google's Android One has become one of the biggest technology flops of the year, and possibly of the decade.
Google had the best intentions when the tech mongol launched the Android One: offer standardized, quality devices for low prices in emerging markets. Sadly, not enough people bought into the vision to make it a success. The phone was to be offered to growing markets, focusing on the BRIC countries, reports*Forbes.

Search again they are upgrading choice options for Android one phones OEM's can use there choice of chips, camera sensor etc from different partners and Google will support them upgrading OS not like first generation they have same specs
But updates are not controlled by google as well
To HUAWEI Technology Co., Ltd. Mr. Ren Zhengfei, HUAWEI consumer BG CEO Mr. Yu Chengdong's open letterDear Mr. Ren Zhengfei, Mr. Yu Chengdong:
After the launch of the new flagship P10 and P10 plus phones from your mobile terminal series, the market has been warmly received and sold well. Here, I would like to extend my warm congratulations to you and express my sincere appreciation for your persistent belief in your efforts to create the perfect product.
Since the P10 series has been sold, up to now,only as far as I know, there are a lot of negative voices about the products in the European,Japanese and Chinese mainland market. In this regard, as a P10 plus consumers, I expressed serious concern and identified with them.
These different voices I call the "gate" incident. Including but not limited to: "OC (Oleophobic Coating) gate", "flash memory gate", "WIFI gate",“memory gate” etc..
OC Gate, the P10 phone's screens don't have a oleophobic layer, which makes the screen feel dry and the screen is prone to a lot of fingerprints and sticky dust.
Flash Gate, the same type of P10 phone uses flash memory components that are significantly different from the speed level.
WIFI Gate, the p10 phones have an unstable connection when use WIFI function.
memory gate,the p10 phones lpddr3 and lpddr4 memory mix
Incident has been erupting for more than a month, although HUAWEI officials during the above incident made some statements, but in my opinion, the statement did not positive respond to the demands of the consumers. That is, there is no clear answer to whether the P10 series has any of these problems (especially flash memory), and a viable solution to the problem.
Huawei's achievements as a company have been remarkable, and it is not easy to develop. As a person concerned with supporting huawei's development and huawei product users, it is not expected that the above incidents will have a negative impact on future development of HUAWEI. To this end, I would like to ask the official HUAWEI to make a positive answer to the following, and give solutions.
1: HUAWEI consumer BG CEO Yu Chengdong said that the latest P10 phones have been sprayed oleophobic layer,pre purchase of the users can go to the HUAWEI experience store for free film or spray oleophobic layer.
For the latter solution, please:
a: Free film has the validity and the number of restrictions?
b: Whether the experience store ready for spraying?
c: Can the early buyers to replace the same type of P10 phones that have been sprayed oleophobic layer?
2: For the use of different speed levels of flash memory of the P10 phones, is there a monetary compensation for that?
3: As soon as possible to release the firmware upgrade package to solve the problem of unstable WIFI connection.
A great company in addition to possess extraordinary innovation ability and the outstanding product, it should have excellent customer relationship processing capabilities, able to face up to the customer reasonable demands and positive response. Again, i would like to ask HUAWEIi officials to give an answer to these questions.

Did you actually send it? Cause I tried to contact them about the oleophobic coating (oh, I do miss the OnePlus support) and the Huawei Romania representative did not have any clue about the infamous Huawei CEO post....

I am am watching the watches per say and the Blood Oxygen level and EKG stuff is really cool, but for me to drop money on a watch I want Glucose monitoring ..... It seems like technology is slowly getting there with companies and products like Dexcom's the G6 and the FreeStyle Libre.
Also in mens watches I guess 45mm is nice, but I would like to see something more along the lines of a 51mm watch. ( When the Note was released there was allot of hate,) but it is one of the most popular phones now.... so why can't we have a "Note" or phablet sized watch....
I am sure Samung has thought about glucose monitoring as a feature in its watches, its just a matter of getting technology to make it work.
Which brings up the next question...... Privacy...... all this data collected is skimmed by google, and then skimmed by Samsung (or Apple in the case of the Apple Watches) so how do you trust these companies and their employee's with personal data.
I'm not sure this can be monitored with existing infrared sensors. I believe you need an implant under your skin that then sends the readings to your watch or other BT device.
But who knows. I'm pretty blown away they can estimate BPM without a cuff.

Right, I am sure there needs to be a skin based sensor right now, it looks like a company in Europe is working on a watch for glucose monitoring that requires some sort of patch below the watch. I guess it will come sometime.
I believe it is possible with LEDs alone. About 6 or 7 years ago a friend who is now in his 80's wrote me about such a device. (He had developed age-related diabetes.) In the 60's and 70's, along with dozens of other medical equipment, they developed a device that used light to monitor blood flow and levels of certain blood factors including glucose. Whether or not Samsung has rediscovered this method or purchased something similar is anyone's guess. (And no, he didn't work for theranos... his clients were NASA and OHSU.) It sure would be a game changer if it made it into a smartwatch.
Is there any app to grab Dexcom G6 sensor readinga from the android phone app?

Would be a nice feature...
It exists / under development in France : named K'Watch.

Dassault and Sanofi recently have been investing in this company, promising. Watch isnt as nice as GW3 though right now

Thanks for sharing this its very helpful for me. I found more information about best watch $5000.
The last update on PK Vitalities website was like 2-3 years ago, they have to have improved it by now. This is sad because this 1 feature alone if it works on a watch would open a whole new market and probably kill the i watch and samsung watch sales unless it gets licensed into them.
