As CES 2024 unfolds, the spotlight in the world of pet tech shines on Invoxia’s unique creation – the Minitailz AI smart collar. This collar introduces a holistic approach to pet health monitoring, location tracking, and more. In this article, let’s dive into discussing the fuss about this latest “Smart Collar”.

Minitailz AI Smart Collar Overview:

Health Monitoring for Pets

The Minitailz AI smart collar takes pet health monitoring to new heights. Conducting real-time scans, it identifies early signs of heart disease in pets, offering a proactive approach to pet care. Continuously recording resting heart and respiratory rates, the collar creates a unique heart signature for each pet. Immediate alerts notify pet owners of sudden changes, potentially preventing serious health conditions.

Location and Fitness Tracking

Going beyond the ordinary, the Minitailz AI collar offers an extensive range of tracking capabilities. It logs daily fitness activities, including playtime, walks, and even Zoomies. With onboard GPS, WiFi, and LTE-M antennas, the collar ensures accurate real-time location tracking, providing peace of mind to pet owners.

Powered by a rechargeable battery lasting 10 to 14 days per charge, the Minitailz AI smart collar balances convenience with functionality. With an IP67 water and dust resistance rating, the collar is rainproof, adding durability to its list of features. That being said, pet owners are still reminded to remove it before their furry companions decide to take an unexpected dive.

AI Integration

In a CES 2024 dominated by AI integration, Invoxia’s Minitailz doesn’t fall short. The AI-powered health and location tracker is a valuable addition to the pet care X Tech Vista. It drives various elements of the solution’s capabilities, such as gathering and assessing sensor and signal data, interpreting measurements, and delivering practical insights for pet owners. Additionally, conversational generative AI is employed within the application to generate highly personalized data reports, enabling owners to gain deeper insights into their pets.

Rabbit R1 is an AI companion that can book flights for you

0

A new startup by the name of Rabbit demoed their AI-powered “R1” device at CES and it’s intriguing, to say the least. For starters, it runs on the company’s RabbitOS void of the construct we know as ‘apps’, and is based on their Large Action Model (LAM). There’s a lot to talk about, so let’s get right into the Rabbit R1, its features, pricing details, and availability. 

Rabbit R1 Overview: 

The Hardware

Designed in collaboration with Teenage Engineering, the Rabbit R1 is a portable smart gadget that comes in a bright orange colorway (leuchtorange). It features a small 2.88-inch touchscreen alongside an analog scroll wheel to the side. But the primary way of interacting with the R1 is via the ‘Push-To-Talk’ button on the right. The R1 also features a “360-degree rotational eye” which is basically just a camera that can either face you or turn around. So, although not quite a smartphone, the R1 packs in all the essentials required for a speech/touch-based system.

Rabbit R1 design

The LAM Model 

The most intriguing part about Rabbit and the R1 is what they have decided to call the “LAM model”. Unlike Large Language Models (LLMs) powering most of the AI products and services we have seen so far, Rabbit’s Large Action Model (LAM) can actually take actions and initiatives on behalf of the user. 

Founder and CEO Jesse Lyu said that they have trained their LAM on thousands of interfaces and it can effectively navigate through apps, web portables, and their UI without a worry. This enables the R1 to do things like book flights, tickets to movies, and even call you an Uber.

RabbitOS and LAM

Furthermore, you can query it about the weather, current affairs, or a random thought just like you’d a normal voice assistant. That’s not all though. 

Another cool feature of the Rabbit R1 is that you can teach it to do things. Similar to macros, you can record yourself doing a task and have the R1 learn and replicate it. In the demo, Lyu had the R1 learn how to generate images using Midjourney in Discord and also to use the lasso tool to remove watermarks in Photoshop. As such, although I am quite skeptical, this could be super useful to automate a series of actions in the future. 

The Eyes

There’s also the camera I mentioned earlier. It faces you for the most part but can turn to recognize objects and scan stuff. An amazing demo was how the R1 could take a look at the leftovers in a fridge and suggest a recipe with low calories within just a couple of moments. That means it can not just recognize food items, but also how rich they are, and which things go together and which don’t, all while following a different set of instructions about how the recipe needs to be ‘low-calorie’. It also seemingly recognizes people and celebrities as shown with a ‘Rick Astley’ demo.

You can of course take pictures with the R1 (8MP) and record 1080p videos at 24 fps.

Under the hood

We took a quick look at the external hardware but under the hood, powering the Rabbit R1 is a modest MediaTek Helio P35 processor. This 2.3 GHz chip was quite popular among budget smartphones a while ago so it’s not surprising to see here. For storage, there’s 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. 

The Rabbit R1 also has a micro SD card for storage expansion and a sim card slot for 4G LTE connections alongside Bluetooth 5, and dual-band WiFi. The company mentions all-day battery life for the R1 with its 1,000 mAh cell. 

Will the Rabbit R1 replace smartphones? 

When asked if he thought his innovation would replace phones, Lyu mentioned that he doesn’t want the Rabbit R1 to replace the smartphone – at least not right now. And although the demo was very impressive, I am in a similar boat. Sure, it can do all these cool things, but smartphones have become integral to our daily lives from being your source of news and entertainment to your shopping portal and bank vault. It’ll be interesting to see where this goes though and I’ll be following it very closely. 

Rabbit R1 feature set

Rabbit R1 Pricing and Availability 

The R1 is surprisingly well-priced at USD 199 without any kind of monthly subscription. Their first batch of 10,000 has already sold out, and they are taking pre-orders for another shipment in the summer.

NordVPN launching its own eSIM service named Saily

0

Popular VPN service, NordVPN is launching an eSIM service of its own. Dubbed Saily, this eSIM service is designed with dozens of plans for international travelers. In this article, let’s get straight into the features, availability, and other info about Saily.

NordVPN’s eSIM Saily Overview:

What is an eSIM?

Before heading forward, let’s first talk about eSIM. An eSIM or electronic SIM is the one embedded inside your devices such as smartphones and smartwatches. It is non-removable and works under the machine-to-machine mechanism (M2M). Which is the direct communication between devices by wired or wireless communication channels.

Nepal Telecom eSIM NTC Embedded SIM How To Get

So, users having eSIM compatible devices can download a specific eSIM service profile from local or foreign carriers. In Nepal, both Nepal Telecom (NTC) and Ncell have been providing eSIM services for quite some time now.

Saily eSIM service

Nord Security, the parent company of NordVPN, is developing Saily. Vykintas Maknickas, the head of product strategy said, “With travel and remote work on the rise, an eSim app is now more crucial than ever”. He added, “We believe that simple and affordable technology is of utmost importance. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce Saily an eSIM app that saves you time and money and even helps you avoid unpleasant situations”.

Saily eSIM

It is made for those international travelers who frequently move from one country to another. In that instance, the hassle of changing to local SIMs can get quite frustrating. That’s where Saily comes in handy. It will provide eSIM services in more than 100 countries. Alongside, you’ll also get dozens of plans for your preference.

Nord Security also talked about cheaper data packs even in the user’s home country. One can just switch to Saily’s plans if the domestic prepaid plan runs out.

NordVPN eSIM Saily Launch and Availability:

Saily is still in the Beta phase. However, you can sign up for early access. The company is planning to launch Saily later in 2023.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 (2022) Overview:

Irrespective of the display size, you get a WUXGA multi-touch IPS screen. It’s a glossy screen with 300 nits of brightness and 45% NTSC coverage. There are models with even higher resolution screens with up to 100% DCI-P3, but they are hard to find in a small market like Nepal’s.

You can use the IdeaPad Flex 5 as a traditional laptop and a tablet. The laptop also supports tent and stand mode, courtesy of the 360-degree hinge. It is compatible with Lenovo Digital Pen, but users must buy it separately since it is not part of the package.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 16” is mostly plastic, except for the cover, which uses adonized aluminum. It is 18.7mm thick and weighs around 2.1 kg. The 14” model is slightly thinner and lighter. It even has an all-plastic model that is even more portable.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 (2022) Design and Display

Keyboard, Webcam, Audio

The 14” and 16” models of the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 differ in the keyboard department as well. Because of its size limitation, 14” doesn’t have a dedicated numeric keypad.

Battery and Connectivity
