Google today released a new sample app called Universal Music Player that works on smartphones, tablets, Android Auto, Android Wear, and Google Cast devices. The word “sample” is key here: This is a reference design for developers so they can learn how to implement a service that works across multiple form factors.
That’s exactly why this audio media app isn’t being released on Google Play. It’s available on GitHub so developers can grab the source code and adapt their own app accordingly.
Amazon.com has acquired 2lemetry, a startup with a system for sending, receiving, and analyzing data from Internet-connected devices.
“We can confirm that Amazon has acquired 2lemetry, and we look forward to continuing to support 2lemetry customers,” an Amazon Web Services spokeswoman told VentureBeat in an email. She would not tell VentureBeat how the team or technology would be integrated into Amazon. (TechCrunch originally reported on the deal.)
Les ondes électromagnétiques, telles que les ondes radios ou les rayonnements émis par les téléphones portables, favoriseraient la croissance de tumeurs chez la souris, selon une étude de l'Université Jacobs de Brême.
Des chercheurs de l'Institut Fraunhofer pour la toxicologie et la médecine expérimentale (ITEM, Basse-Saxe) avaient déjà mené en 2010 une étude sur la possible influence des champs de radiofréquences UMTS [1], émis par les pylônes de téléphonie mobile et liés au développement des réseaux 3G et 4G, sur le développement des tumeurs. Cette étude avait montré qu'une exposition prolongée aux champs UMTS stimulait la croissance des cellules cancéreuses.
Throughout its history, Epizyme has always kept an eye on staying independent. When it was accumulating partnerships for its epigenetics research a few years ago, it made sure to preserve its ability to maneuver and keep some upside for its work. In a broad deal with Celgene for instance, it kept U.S. rights to a bunch of potential drugs. In a pact with Eisai, it kept an option to buy back into some of the potential profits.
Today, the Cambridge, MA-based company is doing that again. Feeling it has a drug with better potential than it originally thought, it’s cut a deal with Eisai to get back more rights than it originally bargained for.
Lingua.ly, which saves language students from the tedium of traditional textbooks, has raised $1 million. Participants in the round include Udi Netzer (a returning investor), Shai Rephaeli, Yochy Investments, and Seed Fund 1776.
The site and apps pulls articles from the web-based on vocabulary lists and each users’ interests. TechCrunch last covered the startup when it launched its free Android app in April 2014 (it is also now available for iOS).
The app, currently in a private beta test, combines data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) with atmospheric pressure readings captured by a smartphone. The latest iPhones, and some Android smartphones, include barometers for measuring atmospheric pressure. These sensors are generally used to determine elevation for navigation, but changes in air pressure can also signal changes in the weather.
Silicon Valley may have coined the ‘big data’ buzzword, but genomic scientists have been working with massive datasets for decades. Due to recent breakthroughs in DNA sequencing technology, genetics is moving from the laboratory into the market, and just about everyone is taking a keen interest.
