Cicret Could Turn Your Skin Into a Smartphone Display

A wearable device that projects the image of a Android tablet on your skin will be a reality soon.

Cicret Bracelet is a bracelet that projects a fully-functioning Android tablet on your skin.Once worn on your wrist, a small light beam on the device, known as the Cicret Bracelet, would project your Android homepage right on your forearm.

Basically, your arm essentially becomes a fully interactive display – swipeable, touch-sensitive and full-colour – that allows you to make or taking phone calls and read and send emails, the Entrepreneur reported.

The promo video explains that the device uses an embedded system that includes a microprocessor, a memory card, a micro USB port, a small battery, a Bluetooth chip, a WiFi chip as well as a LED light.

The Cicret Bracelet may turn out to be the latest evolution in a rapidly growing wearable market — if the device ever sees the light of day. And what’s most interesting about this new gadget in particular, is that you already own half of it.

The memory card comes in either 16GB or 32GB format and with 10 different colours.A beta version of the free app is available on Google Play.

The Cicret development team is currently seeking to raise $1 million to get its project off the ground.

iPhone 6 Plagued By Misaligned Selfie Cameras

Owners claim the phone’s front-facing “selfie camera” is misaligned, with a grey crescent visible on one side.
Various posters on Reddit, Macrumors and other forums claim that their iPhone 6’s selfie camera has become misaligned with its housing, causing a grey crescent shape to appear at the edge.

The Reddit poster said he and a friend both had the same problem with their new $869 devices, and wondered if anyone else had too.
As it turned out, the pair were far from alone.
“I did, they replaced it, and the replacement shifted within a week,” said one commenter.
Some said they had managed to get replacements with the camera properly aligned, but many said they wouldn’t be going back to the shop just yet.
“My nearest Apple store is two hours away,” said one user, while another added, “It’s working just fine, just a minor annoyance.”

It’s worth noting that this is a purely cosmetic issue, and a fairly minor one at that. Pictures still come out fine, which is arguably the most important thing, but it’s still undesirable on a shiny new piece of expensive technology.

Everyone appeared to agree that it was just the casing, rather than the camera, that had shifted, so photos were not affected — so far.
But one commenter pointed out that owners should take the phone back to the store to send a message to Apple that it should make better quality products.
The original poster on Macrumors said it could be an issue if anyone tried to resell their phone claiming “mint condition”.
The issue only appears to affect the smaller iPhone 6, not the iPhone 6 Plus.
