basically what this does is it looks for any kind of organic material on the surface of the glass of my phone and tells me not necessarily how much of it is dead or alive but simply how much there is

start swabbing the phone while we talk a little bit about the technology that is in corning's gorilla glass with antimicrobial agent now this watch right here in the top left has regular soda lime glass which is an inexpensive alternative to Gorilla Glass then in the bottom left we see what happens to that glass if you add as much antimicrobial agent as they did to their own glass it turns yellow which is undesirable from pretty much any perspective in the middle we've got corny and gorilla glass at the top for reference and then at the bottom with an antimicrobial film now this might

the bottom we've got that same glass with their antimicrobial agent and it is just as transparent and strong and flexible and all those great things as B before so something a lot of people don't think about so we're just having the the test completed over here is that is that their phone touches not only their hands but also their face and all kinds of crazy things you lend it to someone so it can be a um well I guess we'll find out basically that chart behind us is a summary of the people here at the show who have had their phones tested here at the booth so they we've had levels of ATP

how uh that's how some people want to be about it so here we go guys let's find out just how dirty my phone is the ATP once the ATP meter finishes booting up guys we're not going to cut this cuz we want you to know that you know this is you know how how dirty or not dirty I happen to be in the meantime let's talk about what the antimicrobial agent actually does so we had to cut this here guys because we got to be very careful what we say this is the world world 's first EPA approved antimicrobial glass but that you know there are certain words we can't use but what we can say is you can be comforted to know that over the duration of the lifetime of your device whether you have a high rating or a low rating you can be comforted to know that the antimicrobial agent is always working Thunderbolt 2 my friends available on the Mac Pro actually available on some PC stuff as well is a very very versatile standard now it's 20 gbit per second which means you can connect all all kinds of great stuff including you know u high definition or even greater than high definition cameras capture devices external PCI Express enclosures and all kinds of crazy stuff like that but one of the limitations of Thunderbolt right now is that particularly with the copper cables available on the market distance is a problem so if you're setting up something like a little Mac Pro Studio workspace the 3 M maximum distance you can be away from the back of the PC with a copper cable might not be enough to have an efficient workplace so Corning with their expertise when it comes to materials is releasing Optical Thunderbolt cables that are capable of much much thinner form factors as well as much longer distances they have a 10 m cable now there's a 30 m cable coming very soon that's correct okay and then they're going to have up to a 60 M cable coming later this year now you probably know you know or you've heard somewhere that optimal optical cables can be very fragile don't worry about that guys they've got a demo here where they're taking their optical cable jamming it into tiny little holes tying it into knots they've got a laser pointer on the one end and you can see that on aside from the optical signal still passing through there is no leakage at any of those knots so it has still maintains its Integrity if it gets closed in a drawer closed in a door closed in a okay I'm I'm not going to say any other words that rhyme with that the point is that it will maintain its data Integrity pretty much regardless of what happens to it but that's not all guys Thunderbolt needs longer distance and thinner cables but so does USB 3 now to be clear this right here is not corning's product okay this is actually a copper based active usb3 extension cable it's a 15m cable it's extremely heavy made of copper and also very bulky for comparison my friends this is corning's usb3 compatible to be clear guys the USB 3 standard doesn't include anything about optical cables so they were kind of like well okay we're big company we can like engineer a solution here even though it's not in the spec so Corning is releasing their Optical us be three compatible cables in lengths up to 50 m and we can be expecting those later on in the year you can see they're obviously thinner obviously lighter and of course they're Optical so performance is going to be obviously better thank you well okay to be clear guys it'll still be 5 gbit per second or 10 GB per second or whatever USB 3 ends up becoming but better in terms of you know not having signal degradation over length which is why the copper one is so bulky there there I clarified that anyway guys don't miss any of our CES 203 2014 coverage our trip to the show this year is powered by nc.com your source for great
