Intel launches a blitzkrieg of new technologies on Day 2 of CES
Intel’s CEO Brian Krzanich unveiled a slew of technological innovations on Day 2 of Consumer Electronic Show.
Krzanich used most of his keynote to talk up Intel's efforts in computerized apparel and other sensor-packed gadgets - nascent markets that the chipmaker and other technology companies hope will fuel future growth as demand for smartphones and tablets loses steam.
The company launched Intel Curie, an all-new platform that enables button-sized wearable devices that has:
-A built-in 32-bit processor (Quark SE), Bluetooth radio, a 6-axis motion sensor, a digital signal processor, and charging circuitry.
-A software development kit called Intel IQ, that enables apps to be developed for it, along with cloud connectivity
Intel RealSense 3D: An all-new vision human interface that uses a special type of vision system that enables immersive applications between users and their screens.
-It can recognize hand gestures and even facial expressions
-It can scan real life objects to create 3D renderings, which could then even be printed
-Its camera now understands depth, enabling you to select focus points even after the photo is taken, and even directly measure dimensions in the photo
New Intel processors for tablets: There’s a new Atom processor—the Z8000 series—that brings 64-bit performance, better battery life, and hardware based encryption to the next generation of tablets
A thumb drive-sized computer: The newly-unveiled Intel Compute Stick is a 4-inch dongle that plugs into your TV’s HDMI port. Inside, it packs a quad-core Intel Atom processor, onboard wireless, memory, and a microSD card slot.
Intel was slow to launch chips for smartphones and tablets, and Krzanich, who took over as CEO in 2013, has made it a top priority to avoid repeating that mistake with future computing trends.
