Visiting the Verizon 5G House at the Indy500 @ LanOC Reviews
|
 So last week Adam and I took a break from the office and made the trip over to Indianapolis as Verizon invited us to check out their 5G Home of the Future that they had set up just outside of Indianapolis Speedway during the week of the Indy500. The original plan was a short visit to check out the home but we ended up also getting invited over to the track to also take a quick look at their 5G setup over there as well along with a peek inside of their mobile 5G truck. The main headlines were the low latency and the extremely high speeds but they had a few demos setup that I’m going to quickly run through today.

Konica Minolta Unveils the Future of Work
|
|
When Konica Minolta invited us to an event called Spotlight Live about the “rise of the cognitive company and the evolution of employment” we were intrigued, but also a little nonplussed. Konica Minolta is historically known for its optical devices – cameras, lenses, photocopies and printers – and KitGuru doesn’t particularly focus on any of these. But with the legendary author Douglas Coupland as keynote speaker, Spotlight Live piqued our interest, so off we went to Berlin. This is what we learned on our travels.

leakSMART Complete Home Water Protection Shut-off System
|
|
The main leakSMART system components are the shut-off valve, remote sensors, and hub. They all use the ZigBee protocol, which uses a mesh network for communication, but does require a hub for control. This review will be handled a little different than our typical reviews. First we will go over the components of the leakSMART system, and then we will go over system performance with their proprietary hub, Iris by Lowes hub, the Wink hub, and then the SmartThings hub.

how Zen compares to Intel
|
|
David was kind enough to spend an hour with us to talk about a recently-made-public report he wrote on Zen. It's definitely a discussion that dives into details most articles and stories on Zen don't broach, so be prepared to do some pausing and Googling phrases and technologies you may not be familiar with. Still, for any technology enthusiast that wants to get an expert's opinion on how Zen compares to Intel Skylake and how Ryzen might fare when its released this year, you won't want to miss it.

|
|
Take a look at your printer. Give it a good stare. Do you trust it? Probably not, considering it jammed the last time you had to print an important paper right up against a deadline.
However, what if we told you that your printer just has to sit there on your network to be a very serious security problem?
