– Russia’s President Vladimir Putin announces divorce from his wife Lyudmila
– Google patents pull-a-face passwords
– and Omni virtual reality game controller secures Kickstarter cash
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his wife Lyudmila have said their marriage is over. The couple, who had been married for 30 years, made their divorce public on Russian state television after attending a ballet performance. Mrs Putin had rarely been seen in public in recent months, prompting much speculation in Russian media. Mr Putin confirmed on TV that the two were no longer living together. But don’t be so shocked dear audience, even though Putin denies it, in Russia it is pretty common knowledge, that since 2008 Putin is in love with Olympic gymnast Alina Kabayeva, and that she already gave birth to his first son, and future Tzar of Russia…so as you can see everything is possible in Russia! We at corporate profile are curious when he will decide to announce THAT minor factor, and even more so HOW he will announce it.
Users could soon be asked to pull a series of faces to unlock their Android phones or tablets. Google has filed a patent suggesting users stick out their tongue or wrinkle their nose in place of a password. It says requiring specific gestures could prevent the existing Face Unlock facility being fooled by photos. It says examples of the requests that might be made include: a frown, a tongue protrusion, an open-mouth smile, a forehead wrinkle, an eyebrow movement etc. Personally I think Apple should learn from Google, cause I would love to unlock my iPhone like this: sexy face..lol
Hot news for gamers! A physical platform and matching shoes which allow video gamers to control characters with their foot movements are to go into production after securing crowd-sourced cash. Omni will use shoes fitted with sensors to track the motion and direction of the player. They also have pins on their soles which fit into grooves on the stand’s base to prevent users from slipping. Omni’s software includes an option to track distance travelled and calories burned. So this could really be a potential way for couch potato gamers to turn into fit and agile gamers.
