Of course it was theme time for the well-known desktop computer to become a single integrated component. But we could not imagine the leap that Intel would make and from the laptop to a computer the size of one card SD, skipping all intermediate steps.
Of course you will tell us there are tablets, smartphones, watches, glasses etc but here we are talking about a complete Pentium computer, so the step is huge.
The international CES 2014 online exhibition is being held in Las Vegas, Nevada, ο Brian Krzanich της Intel ανακοίνωσε τον Edison, "ένα πλήρες Pentium-class υπολογιστή" που έχει το μέγεθος και το σχήμα μίας κάρτας SD και που μπορείτε να το τοποθετήσετε ακόμα και στη φωτογραφική μηχανή σας.
According to the company, it is powered by a dual-core Quark SOC, runs Linux, and has built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
To demonstrate Edison's capabilities, Intel presented a possible concept with the name "Φυτώριο 2.0". Στην ιδέα αυτή, ένα baby was wearing one onesie Mimo equipped with detection sensors and other things like temperature, and Edison was used to visualize all the relevant information in one cup of coffee !! When the baby will be happy, light will blink in the mug that will show a happy green smiling face, but when something is wrong then the face turns red.
But to do so, Edison must first get their hands on the developers, so we probably have a long time to look at the shelves on the market.
