CHAPTER-1 INTROUCTION, MOTIVATION AND FORM-FACTORS 1.1 Introduction PaperFold is a mobile device invented to become a device for every use. It is a device which is meant to be a laptop, computer, tablet and a smartphone all at the same time. It is made to be small enough to fit the pocket even when collapsed and yet giving enough real estate to do any kind of work desired. It is a thin filmed device which gives it a weight approximate to a paper yet at the same time it is meant to be durable. It has multiple screens all fold able and detachable giving it large real estate value. And just like a book it is meant to be a navigation easy and at the same time space saving. PaperFold combines the benefits of context-aware multi-display devices …show more content…
Paperford can be attached in 14 different orientations. PaperFold is thin and has a large real-estate. 2.2 Pros and Cons 2.2.1 Pros Extensions: Extension in horizontal and vertical display was made easy in PaperFold and could be used for a large amount of real-estate out of thin film screens. 3D Shapes: Bending inwards or outward to show 3D views operation in map application where data data elements are not inherently limited to 2D was seamless in the PaperFold. Detachable Slates: Detachable Slates helped in promoting modularity as well as a connecting different slates together to make more of the functionalities. It helps in showing different apps or application of duplicate. 2.2.2 Cons Above recommendations are based on heuristics and can be considered valid only within the limitations of the presented device and user study. It is believed that results are sufficiently clear to generalize to other application scenarios and device morphological. It is recognized that PaperFold prototype has shortcomings that did not allow to evaluate use by multiple users outside a laboratory environment. In particular, an important future direction is to remove the dependency on cables and extraneous equipment for what is supposed to be a mobile
made robust and stronger as these are the ones which will be used more frequently by the users.
Olaudah Equiano, Boyrereau Brinch, and Ayuba Suleiman all have similarities and differences from the way they were all captured and their experiences in Atlantic Slave Trade. They were all captured in West Africa during the 1700's. Equiano was captured at eleven with his sister, whereas Brinch was sixteen and Suleiman was in his late twenties. Equiano was captured in Nigeria, Brinch was captured in Mali, and Suleiman was captured Senegal. Nevertheless, they were captured in different way. Equiano and his sister were captured when their parents were not home working in the fields to labor. Brinch was swimming with friends and Suleiman was on a mission for his father to “sell two Negroes and to buy Paper, and some other Necessaries. Suleiman
Printers, Scanners & Photocopies – These are normally combined within the same machine if it’s multi-functional.
Provides great flexibility as it allows sharing of documents with other devices such as printers in other rooms, uploading files to a desktop computer from a cellphone wirelessly and allows for online streaming.
This facilitates the work as well as it makes it clearer.(imagine having just one screen, it would be
For my final exam, I had to do a product review/heuristic evaluation on two devices that I have not yet been familiar with. The two devices that I have decided to do with this assignment are the point – and – shoot camera and the copier machine. The reasons why I've decided evaluate these two devices because I've never used them before and they have given me the most interest in observation.
The author proves herself as very knowledgeable on the subject, and as she is a Ph.D., candidate in multiple programs at M.I.T. the reader is willing to take her opinion and personal evidence seriously. By pairing her evidence alongside the concerns of those who disagree with the use of these devices, Wexler was able to effectively dismiss and prove wrong their specific
In Home Health laptops are utilized for documentation and one can become extremely focused on assuring all of the requisite data is captured and disregard the
A computer program that addresses the illegibility of paper is the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Computer System, which is a system that allows physicians to add medical information into an electronic profile (Holroyd-Leduc, 2011). However, this system introduces new dilemmas: virtual disorganization and lost information (Rull, 2007). In addition, electronic document scanners try to address the mechanical destruction of paper. Though, the fate of these records is the same as desktop EMR systems (Laerum, 2013). So, how can health care be reformed to address the present medical errors? I believe the adoption of Apple iPads combines the freedom of writing on paper and the legibility of computers into a single technological solution. Implementing technology that decreases the occurrence of medical errors not only fixes the health care issue, but also sets your product as a model of success in reforming health care.
The use of paper has negatively impacted the environment by reducing the number of trees and decreasing the sustainability of our forest resources. A paperless revolution is defined to be when paper is totally eliminated from an environment such as an office or home or reduced. The forest sustainability will be improved and it will also impact the breathing of our humans. Without the use of paper, it will guarantee a cost reduction in the economy, healthier breathing for society, and more trees for the environment. A paperless revolution is needed because it improves the life-span of our forest, and sustainability overall.
Manufacturers usually make claims on the accuracy of their devices, however, decisions on which device to use should be based solely on international protocols and peer-reviewed journals (Beevers et al, 2007).
The implementation of a paperless system was a change that would take place in a complex environment. When starting to use this new system Anthony Ng did not know the real outcome of this change, because there could have been many different effects that were largely unknown in advance.
A large, local hospital has requested consulting assistance with a technical research and specification project related to the selection of a tablet device for use in their medical practice. This tablet will be used by personnel for medical and administrative purposes throughout the hospital.
As the economy weakens, Americans begin to find ways to save money. One of the latest trends in saving money is considered “the paperless office”. This new paperless office method is a concept that is now considered “Green”, also known as environmentally friendly. These “Green” approaches are engineered to help save money and save the environment. A paperless office does not completely eliminate paper in a work environment, but rather uses a minimal use of paper taking on a smarter approach by converting all documentation into a technological form. Reducing the use of paper in a work place improves efficiency, saves money, time and space.
The application can also help the user to organize his or her files and make folders to make organizing more comfortable to a user. Another example is Ibook to view the e-books that have been given or downloaded. Applications from drawing and e-book reading can help the environment by reducing the use of paper with causes the cutting down of trees. Using applications like these for school help the user to organize their files. According to a survey “The Tablet PC group had a stronger belief that technologies tools help improve the quality of their work.” (Neal & Davidson, 2009). Because of the change of technology, the quality of the project that a person can do increases due to performance of the use that make them handle it better.
