Computex 2009：iPhone無線充電與暖腳鞋

由 Annti Yang 於 5 months 之前發表

這個「富達通」廠商的攤位，說真的不是很醒目，藏身在世貿一館的某個角落，不過展出的產品還蠻有意思的，富達通的技術是在RFID領域，現場擺出了3個產品，iPhone與Wii mote的無線充電，以及保暖拖鞋。

iPhone與Wii mote的無線充電與國外的Power Mat（請點我）或Power Cast（請點我）很像，應該都是基於特斯拉線圈（Tesla Coil）的原理來延伸的，不過廠商說他們的專利跟前述兩家還是有差異，所以不會有侵犯的問題。另外，現場的保暖拖鞋也是一樣的原理，只是沒有充電功能，單純地為拖鞋加熱，適合Annti這種手腳冰冷的人使用。

售價據說都是台幣一千上下

Computex 2009：AMI展示Debug RX除錯解決方案

由 Annti Yang 於 5 months 之前發表

AMI在這次的Computex 2009展示了名為 "AMI Debug RX" 的解決方案，主要是給無法安裝除錯卡的產品（像UMPC）也能讓工程師進行故障排除，包含一個除錯裝置，界面走USB，接上裝AMI BIOS的產品後，除錯裝置就能顯示代碼，如果是硬體上的問題，就能從代碼得知開機過程中哪個硬體出問題。

Debug RX上面有兩個micro USB，一個可以接欲故障排除的硬體，另一端則可接電腦，透過Debug RX的軟體，可以對該硬體進行更進一步的操作，像是更新韌體等。另外，Debug RX裝置裡面有快閃記憶體與micro SD插槽，可以讓工程師們將BIOS Dump出來以儲存，或是從Debug RX讀取新韌體以作更新。

AMI表示未來還會推出比較低階的版本，目標是玩家市場。

<Computex 2009: AMI Debuts Debug RX Debugging Solution>
In this Computex 2009, AMI have demonstrated one "AMI Debug RX" debugging solution for computing equipments which could not have used conventional debug card, such as an UMPC. The solution includes an USB debugging device which can be connected to computing devices with AMI BIOS. Once connected, the debugging device can display a series of debug codes which reflects the current states of the hardware being connected.

Debug RX contains two micro USB ports, one for connecting to the hardware that's being debugged, and the other one for connecting to a PC which have the Debug RX software installed. The software allows engineers to perform remote repair/debug functions such as upgrading BIOS. Furthermore, Debug RX device contains flash memory and SD slot which allow engineers to store BIOS dump in Debug RX or upgrade BIOS through firmware stored on Debug RX. A lower-end model may be available in the future for DIY enthusiast and alike.

Computex 2009：奇菱科技的醫療級螢幕

由 Yeager Yu 於 5 months 之前發表

在四月的時候，筆者曾經寫過Eizo發表56吋4K X 2K解析度的醫療用液晶螢幕。沒想到在Computex展上也有看到奇菱科技Chilin展出。而且所展尺吋更大，為64吋機種。解析度也是同樣，為4096 X 2160。筆者也有詢問醫療級螢幕與一般螢幕的差別，廠商提到，最主要的，還是要通過醫療一些相關的規範才行。

[Computex 2009: Medical Display from Chilin Technology]
Back in April, we brought you the news of Eizo's 56" 4k * 2k Resolution Medical LCD Display*. Here in Computex, we stumbled something similar, and yet bigger. This 64" medical display is from Chilin Technology, with a screen resolution of 4096 x 2160, same as the one from Eizo. We asked the manufacturer's preventative about the difference between medical display and ordinary display. The reply, in short, is that medical displays are required to comply with some health regulations to be qualified as medical display.

Computex 2009：OZAKI多重概念的iPhone充電器兼喇叭iUFO

由 Yeager Yu 於 5 months 之前發表

****
話說在去年，OZAKI展了令人印象深刻的產品。而在今年也有一款令人印象深刻，是一款結合多重概念的iUFO，給iPhone用的喇叭兼充電器。強調了結合Dock、Speakers、Phone、Desktop以及Theater等等的概念。

----
<Computex 2009: OZAKI's iUFO for iPhone>
In last year's Computex, OZAKI have surprised us with this 'impressive' product. This year, we drop by for a revisit and found this nifty iUFO that impressed us in a very different context. This iUFO is a speaker/charger for iPhone which aimed to combine the concepts of dock, speakers, phone, desktop and theater.

Computex 2009：Cideko的無線娛樂方案

由 Yeager Yu 於 5 months 之前發表

如果有去世貿三館的話，應該會看到Cideko無線相關產品的展示，他們的展區還滿大的。主要秀出三樣產品的機能，一個是將電腦的資訊，以無線傳輸的方式到電視上；一個是無線USB Hub，另一個是無線鍵盤。
<Computex 2009: Cideko's solutions to wireless entertainment>

Cideko's wireless products are not to be missed. They actually have a big booth, which showcases their 3 main wireless gadgets. The first one is called Air Tune, and it transmits information from computer to TV via wireless. The TV terminal is called the Air Player. The next one is a wireless USB hub, and the last one is a wireless keyboard. We have more pictures and a video clip after the break.

Computex 2009：RockFire的可愛任我攜遊戲手把

由 Annti Yang 於 5 months 之前發表

****

這是在世貿一館攤位看到的，這個遊戲手把外型長得像戒指盒，連接線為可拆卸的mini USB線，另外還有卡片式樣，喜歡玩模擬器的玩家（譬如Yeager），這玩意兒是個好物，售價一個約3百元。

這家廠商叫做 "RockFire" ，之前以OEM與ODM為主，在這次的Computex 2009現場還有擺出其他的遊戲週邊以及FPS類型的左手遊戲鍵盤，腕墊還能自由伸縮，可以參考圖集。

We spotted these interesting gamepads in the first exhibition hall. It looks like a ring box and comes with a detachable mini USB cable. There's also another model that's about the size of a credit card. If you like emulators, this gamepad will be a gem. They cost about $300 NTD each. They are made by a company called "RockFire," and they also bring other gaming peripherals to the table, such as a gaming keyboard designed for FPS games.

Computex 2009：採用USB電力的小小碎紙機

由 Yeager Yu 於 5 months 之前發表

****
在跑Computex展的時候，大廠不必說，一定是沒有什麼問題，會歡迎媒體採訪。而有些比較小的廠商，若想被採訪，有時也會通知我們，告知展區在哪兒。當然，絕大部分的，是可有可無，這部分，就是靠我們自己來逛了。

但有些廠商，是非常不願意被其他人拍照的。當然，我可以理解，這牽涉到同業競爭，或是Idea被抄襲。我跑的期間，被拒絕次數，應該有到十位數吧。基本上我也不會偷拍，偷拍SG也就算了，但偷拍廠商的Idea，被我們報導出來，萬一真的有什麼機會造成該廠的損失，那我可會愧疚到死了。

<Computex 2009: USB-Powered Paper Shedder>
Sometimes we would come across some manufacturers who don't welcome photo journals. Of course, it is quite understandable in terms of preventing unwanted competition or preventing their products being duplicated without permission. During the course of the event we have been rejected dozens and dozens times over. Basically, we don't take snap shots (with the exception of show girls), just to avoid any regrettable event from happening.

Computex 2009：iPhone 觸控筆 1.1

由 Casper Kao 於 5 months 之前發表

****

還記得去年看過的 iPhone 觸控筆嗎？今年則是小升級了一下，讓他可以接在 iPhone 的 3.5mm 耳機插孔，不過小編總以為這東西可以在更好一點，好歹也把 3.5 mm 耳機孔轉出來，這樣塞住，感覺沒有非常方便就是；有興趣的朋友可以參考跳轉後的照片。

----
<Computex 2009: iPhone Stylus 1.1>
Remember the iPhone stylus we reported on last year? There is a minor upgrade – it can be now stuffed into iPhone's 3.5mm earphone jacket. We however, think if they should take one step further – at least extend the earphone jacket so both can be used at the same time!

Scroll down for photo illustration of how this works.

Computex 2009：希悅爾的泡綿包材

由 Yeager Yu 於 5 months 之前發表

****
這當然不是什麼新的東西。不過對於圈子外的人來說，很難得有機會看到所謂的包裝材製作（我想我也只有像這樣的電腦展場合比較有機會看到吧）。像我以前就不是很理解為何泡綿可以符合被包裝物的造型，是要花多少錢才能這樣搞？

----
<Computex 2009: Foam Packaging from Sealed Air>
This is not something new, but neither is it something that can be seen everyday. Ever wonder why the foam packaging always fits the object they wrapped around and how costly it is to make it so? Here is a quick tour to Sealed Air's showroom in Computex.

Computex 2009：長得有點大的即時通小玩具

由 Casper Kao 於 5 months 之前發表

****
上面那個看起來有點可怕的東西，其實是台即時通小玩具的原型 iToy，不過開發公司瑞駿科技的專精不是在玩具的外觀上面，而是一系列跟 VoIP 有關的產品應用。

跟一些類似跟即時通軟體結合的硬體差不多，iToy 可以針對即時通的的各種活動來反應（目前測試的主要是以 Skype 為主），好比說收到 Skype 電話，他就可以發出提示音，收到表情符號、特殊關鍵字也會有有趣的反應，而且背後的軟體設定方面，也提供給使用者很大的設定彈性，例如自建關鍵字，加入對應的音樂 / 動作等。

跳轉後有示範影片，有興趣的朋友可以跳轉收看。

<Computex 2009: Im Toy>

Don't be horrified. It's just a prototype of an IM toy, iToy. And don't be critical about the appearance, either, for Regin Tech is not specialized in designing toys, but in product applications related to VoIP.

The iToy is similar to those hardwares combined with IM softwares and responds to all kinds of actions going on in the messenger (it is now tested primarily with Skype). It will play sounds at incoming Skype calls and show funny reactions for specific expressions or key words. It also offers a huge flexibility on user-defined software settings, such as adding key words and corresponding sounds / movements, etc.

The demo video is right below, if you are interested, click on it!
