Ten technologies showcased at the recent International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) could alter the industry’s landscape in 2012.  In 2012 mobile device makers will begin integrating complete inertial navigation units with pre-calibrated accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers.  Meanwhile, graphics processing unit-based computing will get a boost from system- and software-level support due to the addition of application programming interfaces, as well as parallel-capable programming languages such as CUDA, DirectX compute, and OpenCL.  CES also highlighted the importance of Google Android, which likely will be the software platform that enables many of the most interesting and diverse devices to emerge in the next decade.  Windows 8, the first version of Microsoft’s operating system to support both ARM and X86 processors, also will have a big impact.  In addition, companies such as Microsoft, Texas Instruments, and FlashScan3D are developing touch-free human-machine interfaces, building on the success of other interfaces such as the Xbox Kinect.  Other promising technologies include talkative intelligent agents, such as Apple’s cloud-based Siri, which can answer questions in a naturally conversational way and could make search engines obsolete.

Five open source projects could become the basis for new businesses and industries in 2012.  Nginx, a Web server program, could become popular due to its ability to easily handle high-volume traffic.  Nginx already is used on highly trafficked Web sites, and the next release, due in 2012, will be more pliable for shared hosting environments.  The OpenStack cloud computing platform has gained support from several technology firms due to its scalability.  ”We’re not talking about [using OpenStack to run a] cloud of 100 servers or even 1,000 servers, but tens of thousands of servers,” says OpenStack Project Policy Board’s Jonathan Bryce.  Stig was designed for the unique workloads of social networking sites, according to its developers.  The data store’s architecture allows for inferential searching, enabling users and applications to look for connections between disparate pieces of information.  Linux Mint was designed specifically for users who want a desktop operating system and do not want to learn more about how Linux works.  The Linux Mint project is now the fourth most popular desktop operating system in the world.  GlusterFS is one of the fastest growing storage software systems on the market, as downloads have increased by 300 percent in the last year.

Stanford University researchers recently released the program code for ClassX, software that converts static videos of class lectures into interactive online video streams.  The researchers simplified the recording equipment to a tripod, a wireless microphone, and a high-definition camcorder.  The software enables the viewer to zoom and pan around the room during playback, and it also works in the cloud, requiring only a Web browser for access.  The ClassX Web site currently contains 25 courses, as well as seminars and workshops.  The software divides the original video into smaller parts and considers each of them its own video stream.  The server stores the parts in different resolutions, and reduces the amount of information sent while streaming by transmitting only those parts that a user requests.  ClassX automatically analyzes the video using computer-vision algorithms, putting the parts back together.  The system is still experimental as the researchers are working on how the software will handle the unpredictability of wireless networks, devices’ reduced battery life, and the limited computing power of mobile devices.

Forests could receive better maintenance and management using new software developed by a team at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV).  The software is designed to generate maps of forest areas with information on timber volume, biomass, or the height of trees.  UPV researchers designed the software to integrate the Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) data treatment process from the generation of digital terrain models, feature extraction, and model estimation of forest variables to produce the final maps.  The researchers also developed the LiDAR technology used by the software.  The position and coordinates of the recorded points are registered, therefore measuring terrain, vegetation, buildings, and other elements in three dimensions, and the final point cloud data can be processed and analyzed for different applications.  ”From airborne LiDAR data and software application, we generate maps that can improve knowledge about the evolution of a forest, how its structure and characteristics change, as well as its potential to absorb CO2 and its wood volume,” says UPV researcher Luis Angel Ruiz.  ”All this has positive effects on its maintenance, fire prevention, or sustainable use.”

Although millions of people worldwide have implantable medical devices, recent research has shown that these devices are vulnerable to attack, such as an attacker instructing a device to deliver lethal doses of medicine or electricity.  Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Massachusetts-Amherst have developed a system to prevent such attacks.  The system involves the use of a second transmitter to block unauthorized signals in an implant’s operating frequency, which prevents everyone but authorized users from communicating with it.  The jamming transmitter would be small enough to wear as a necklace or a watch.  The researchers experimented with implantable defibrillators taken secondhand from Boston-area hospitals and programmable off-the-shelf transmitters to simulate the shield.  They developed a technique that enables the shield to send and receive signals in the same frequency band at the same time.  ”I think that’s what people liked about it, that you could do it with existing devices, and that you did not have a lot of the overhead that it would take to come up with an entirely new thing,” says University of California, San Diego professor Stefan Savage.
