They have been around since years but they haven’t lived up to user expectations. Nvidia will change that with their new Optimus technology (hopefully). We are not talking about PowerMizer which only changes the clock (and that too is absent in Windows 7). It’s rather about switching between integrated and discrete graphics. Read further »

Going green in Technology is in-vogue. We’ve seen a numerous number of efforts to save power, and reduce co2 emission. Here comes another one and unique of it’s kind. Hitachi has come up with a  face-recognizing television that intends to save power, whenever you are not watching it.

Though this demo features a text instead of actually saving power, but the actual Read further »
