WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.960
it is day three of techlink's coverage of ces but only day two

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:11.519
of ces because although everyone's here by monday

00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:15.200
it's vegas you know what are you gonna do today we're

00:00:13.280 --> 00:00:19.520
talking about the coolest stuff i've seen at ces and that we haven't talked

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:22.720
about already on TechLinked okay ready go at Intel's press conference the

00:00:21.439 --> 00:00:26.560
company laid out quite a few announcements their ice lake chips based

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:31.039
on the 10 nanometer process will be the company's first to feature the new sunny

00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:35.200
cove architecture gen 11 integrated graphics native Thunderbolt 3 and wi-fi

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:39.600
6 support and dl boost ice lake cpus are coming by the

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:43.200
end of the year but perhaps the most interesting information we got from

00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:46.960
Intel was about code name lakefield which is what they're calling their

00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:51.920
modular chips that use foveros 3d stacking it's not faveros

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:55.760
for example lakefield processors would use large sunny cove cores in

00:00:53.760 --> 00:00:59.120
combination with smaller atom cores which means it would be able to operate

00:00:57.199 --> 00:01:03.680
either at very low power for efficient use or pump things up for heavy

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:07.840
workloads those modular cpus are put in a stack with dram chips which allows

00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:12.479
Intel to make the motherboard extremely small and can be scaled for applications

00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:17.680
all the way up from tiny low power devices to full desktop pcs now Intel

00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.520
also briefly mentioned project athena which they're saying is an Intel driven

00:01:19.360 --> 00:01:26.640
initiative to foster innovation across the entire pc ecosystem similar to what

00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:29.119
they did with the ultrabook branding they didn't say anything else

00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:33.360
specifically but if you're going to give vague promises about allegedly industry

00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:37.920
shattering projects ces is the place to do it now the hype

00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:41.040
around vr has died down for sure but htc had a couple of interesting

00:01:39.119 --> 00:01:46.320
announcements to make about their vive line of headsets the vive pro i adds eye

00:01:44.240 --> 00:01:50.560
tracking and foveated rendering to the regular vive pro which should allow pcs

00:01:48.399 --> 00:01:54.479
to only render the parts of a vr scene that the user is looking at increasing

00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:58.719
performance and hopefully making it so that you don't need to have a super

00:01:56.479 --> 00:02:04.320
expensive pc to enjoy yourself which is always a good thing htc also teased the

00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:07.680
htc cosmog cosmoch

00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:09.599
dennis it's that's not it the htc cosmos

00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:15.120
which will apparently be fully wireless but unlike the quest will still be

00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:17.200
intended for home use with a pc or

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.800
with a smartphone the video showed a smartphone it was

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:26.160
very confusing for everybody like i said it was just the tease but it did have a

00:02:22.480 --> 00:02:28.160
flashy video very ces and htc gave a

00:02:26.160 --> 00:02:32.640
peek at the vive reality system which looks kind of like a playstation home

00:02:30.160 --> 00:02:36.319
for the vive but it could also be a tracking system that would allow the

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:40.239
vive to break free of being shackled to valve's steamvr tracking which is

00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:45.360
exciting as anyone who's ever been shackled to something could understand

00:02:43.760 --> 00:02:49.360
hey and check this out it's not a functioning product but

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:54.160
i think it's super cool bell that's the aircraft company not the canadian isp is

00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:58.160
showing off a scale model of the nexus a vertical takeoff and landing capable

00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:02.640
vehicle that will be used for uber's air taxi service it's got five seats and

00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:06.640
will run on a hybrid electric engine with six tilting ducted rotors

00:03:08.959 --> 00:03:14.239
there's not much room around ces as large as ces is there's not much room

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:17.519
like i said it's a scale model so it doesn't actually fly yet but bell says

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:22.560
it will have the nexus in operation by the mid-2020s and uber plans to have its

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:25.040
air taxi service up and running by 2023 so

00:03:23.519 --> 00:03:28.080
futuristic vehicles like this one may become common more quickly than you

00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:32.959
think see that see that dennis sure i did a little bit

00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:36.640
of vague promising there it's the ces spirit in me and it's also time for

00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:39.760
quick bits brought to you by sea sonic now first off i've got to clarify

00:03:37.920 --> 00:03:43.200
something in the earlier sponsor spots i said seasonic has been making powerful

00:03:41.440 --> 00:03:46.400
and efficient power supplies since the 1980s

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:50.319
i was wrong they've been making them since 1978.

00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:55.760
so for those of you that weren't convinced yeah seasonic has been doing this for two more years than you thought

00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:58.560
so think again if you're looking for a dependable high

00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:04.640
performance power supply for your next builder upgrade and you're not going with seasonic

00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:10.400
big mistake check them out at the link below on to the quick bits everybody

00:04:08.799 --> 00:04:14.640
hp has shown off the world's first gaming laptop with a 240hz display but

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:20.639
that high refresh rate comes with some drawbacks the hp omen 15 has a 15 point

00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:23.280
inch 1080p tn panel with no g-sync but

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:27.520
it's powered by an rtx 2070 max q and an Intel 8th gen core i7 it's launching

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:32.240
next month so you don't have long to wait if 120 frames just aren't good

00:04:30.080 --> 00:04:36.240
enough hey look it's that folding phone from the company no one's heard of yet

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:40.800
before now the grainy video we all saw of the royal flex pie made this thing

00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:44.160
look kind of sketchy but in person it looks a little better because royal

00:04:42.880 --> 00:04:49.360
developed this thing on its own it doesn't have google's software optimizations that are coming out for

00:04:46.880 --> 00:04:53.840
folding phones but it seems to do okay by itself a company called unreal is

00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.440
looking to one-up microsoft's hololens and the magic leap by making augmented

00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:01.040
reality glasses that don't look like a giant computer strapped to your head

00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:05.919
which always always good dennis the n-real light glasses have 1080p laser

00:05:03.520 --> 00:05:10.800
projectors that display images at 60fps with a 52 degree field of view better

00:05:08.320 --> 00:05:14.000
than the magic leaps but like the magic leaf it has a separate box for

00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:16.800
processing a side benefit that i'm surprised they haven't mentioned is that

00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:20.080
they make you look like a straight baller while you wear them dude

00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:26.240
and in the future straight ballers will get their snacks and drinks from robot

00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:29.360
butlers or that's what ubtech thinks anyway they're showing off the walker

00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:34.560
which can do everything from fetching you treats to opening doors for you and

00:05:32.479 --> 00:05:39.600
dancing obviously it's early days but the fact that walker can do that much is

00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:43.759
amazing i mean i think i even saw him at the party last night were you there dude

00:05:41.840 --> 00:05:47.440
walker was going ham walker was bonkers and speaking of

00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:52.160
walkers and a story that makes my inner star wars nerd get much too excited

00:05:49.440 --> 00:05:58.000
hyundai has given a look at a real-life walker like a at-80 thing except not as

00:05:55.600 --> 00:06:02.320
big the hyundai elevate is a prototype of a vehicle that would be able to go

00:05:59.520 --> 00:06:06.960
truly off-road by extending four legs locking its wheels in place and climbing

00:06:04.960 --> 00:06:10.400
over whatever is in its path it would be very useful for emergency crews

00:06:08.479 --> 00:06:14.639
accessing hard to reach places or for empires attacking snow-covered rebel

00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:14.639
bases

00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:22.560
yeah you tried to duck at least i mean come

00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:26.880
on i know it's a prototype but like this is really exciting this is really

00:06:23.919 --> 00:06:30.639
cool dennis have you seen it it's a walking car

00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:35.840
cool oh all right that's it for this episode of

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:38.479
coolest stuff at ces TechLinked we're not gonna keep that name it's too

00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:44.639
long but make sure you subscribe for more tech news because we're gonna have more tomorrow every day

00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:49.919
we shuffle in aka making tech news videos that's

00:06:47.440 --> 00:06:53.880
alright see you later or shuffle away
