The #World’s First #Notary Public #App For #Android is Live Now

Getting a document legally notarized while on the go is now said to be easier than ever thanks to a new application called Notarize which has been around for a while but has just now finally launched on Android devices. In fact, all that’s needed is an Android smartphone or tablet running Android 4.4 KitKat or newer, proof of identification, a solid Internet connection, and a digital representation of documents that need to be notarized. According to the company behind the self-titled app, users won’t need to worry about whether that notarized signature is legitimate either. The premise is based on two separate Virginia Bills that were passed back in 2011, allowing for remote electronic notarization, and a clause of the Constitution that requires states to accept out-of-state notarizations.

Besides providing access to relatively straightforward Notary services 24 hours per day, seven days per week from any place with a solid data or WiFi connection, the Notarize application has a few distinct features that also seek to set it apart from other apps. For starters, it has features that allow for document importing and preparation, as well as easy-to-use tools for document signing and annotating from directly within the app. Meanwhile, one’s identity is verified by using the app to scan a legally recognized form of identification – such as a driver’s license or state-issued ID card.  A video conference is used to verify that it is actually the user in question who is signing the documents – preventing just anybody from picking up the app and using it to notarize things in someone else’s name. The Notarize app also has chat support for users who might need a bit more help in getting the process moving forward if doing so seems too complicated. Finally, not only can an individual or business get a document notarized through the application for themselves, but they can also send a document to others to be notarized through the app.

Notarize is completely free to download but not free to use. The cost of using the service is set at a rate of $25 per notarization, which is toward the upper end of typical fees for the service but it would be really difficult to quantify the savings in terms of convenience. Notary services are generally considered to be rather inconvenient and sometimes time-consuming to obtain even before factoring in the costs, which can go well above $20. That means this could be the perfect tool for Android users who need official notarization services but simply don’t have the time to drive to a courthouse, bank, or another location that has a notary public on staff. It may even be worth keeping on hand just in case. In the meantime, anybody interested should go ahead and hit the Google Play Store button below to get started.

Selfly-A #Selfie #Drone

Heads up, selfie-takers: A new device can help you elevate your self-portraits. Literally.AEE Aviation Technology's Selfly is a phone case with a built-in smart, autonomous flying selfie camera. Because the Selfly drone lives on your phone, it's with you at all times, ready to capture all your antics as long as it's charged.

When you're ready to take some selfies, just detach the Selfly drone from its home—your phone case. It takes off from the palm of your hand and hovers autonomously, kind of like an "invisible tripod."

"Its drone wings enable the device to fly itself at the user's command, delivering distant, tight angle or higher altitude photo selfies or videos," AEE Aviation Technology wrote in a press release. "As it hovers in the air, Selfly waits for commands from an intuitive, easy-to-use and free smartphone app to capture that perfect shot from above."

The tiny drone features "high-end stabilization technology" and is capable of capturing 13MP images as well as HD videos. It can detect faces and make them the focus of its shot, or shoot in panoramic mode for higher-altitude selfies and videos. If you're doing something active, it can follow your movements and capture the action.

When not in use, Selfly folds into a 9mm (3/8-inch) thick phone case. It's compatible with nearly all 4- to 6-inch iOS and Android smartphones, has a flight time of four minutes, and takes 30 minutes to recharge.

Selfly isn't the first selfie drone but it's the first one we know of that lives inside a phone case. On display at CES in Las Vegas this week, Selfly is expected to go on sale sometime this quarter for $130, which makes it quite a bit cheaper than the $599 Hover selfie drone we saw at CES last year. Hopefully it does better than the Lily.

Watch Intel’s drones play the piano at #CES #2018

Forget drone delivery. Intel made drones play the piano. Using a system very similar to the one used by Lady Gaga in the Super Bowl, drones took center stage at Intel’s CES keynote and played a piano like Tom Hanks did in Big. It was fantastic.

The show starts out with band called Algorithm and Blues. Fast forward if you must, but their performance was fun too. You want to see the drones after their bit.

Intel didn’t detail how the drones work inside but instead briefly announced this version of the Shooting Star program. I had an early look at this program before it’s first show in Disney World in 2016 and the platform pre-programs the path of the drones to create a light show. In that version, the drones lacked collision detection and used GPS to plot their location. But this show happened inside a Las Vegas theater where GPS is not available.

Like any good technology, it’s as good as magic.

However, the company has officially listed the OnePlus 5T Sandstone White on its global website. Talking about the physical overview, it looks similar to the OnePlus 5T Star Wars Limited Edition device launched last month in India.

Unlike the Limited Edition device, there is no Star Wars logo on the new OnePlus 5T Sandstone White, but the company retained the Mineral Red Alert Slider on the left. Just like the OnePlus 5T Star Wars Limited Edition, the new OnePlus 5T Sandstone White will be available only in 8GB RAM variant. It costs $559 (Rs. 37,999) for the 8GB RAM variant and will be available starting January 9th.
