Control Android Music Player with Hand Gestures: Sensor Posted: 07 Sep 2012 06:30 PM PDT Sensor Music Player is a free music player app for Android that lets you control music by using hand gestures. The awesome feature about this application is the ability to control the music play back without touching the phone itself. You can skip to the next song on the track list, pause them, and resume playback by just waving your hand over your phone. Yea, it also does all the normal stuff that are required of a good music player. Its has a simple interface, its light weight, does not use up too much resources. And, hey, you can wave at it to change song! How cool is that? (BTW – if you hear music on PC, then there is a way to control music play on PC with hand gestures).
Modes for Different Hand Gestures:The phone supports three modes: Wave over, pocket, hammer. There are different hand gestures associates with each mode to perform the actions on the music player. Each of these modes are aptly described by the screen shot below. Wave over: When this mode is selected, you can perform different actions by just waving your hand around proximity sensor (This sensor is located over the upper bezel of the screen):
Out of all the three modes, this is my favorite one to control music player. Hammer: Hammer mode is pretty straight forward. After selecting this mode, just keep phone on a surface and hammer the surface to change the song with your hand. Be-careful while using this mode so that you don’t end up accidentally hammering the phone; you won’t enjoy that. Pocket: For this mode just select the mode from the options and turnoff your phone’s screen and keep it in your pocket and tap on the phone to skip the songs. This is a good mode when you are running or in a gym, and have phone in your pocket. Just tag the phone, and song will be changed. Note: If you are not in the mood to use the above features and just want to use the app like a normal music player, then you can disable the above sensor features. Features:

Improve Firefox, Chrome, Thunderbird and Skype Speed with SpeedyFox Posted: 07 Sep 2012 06:30 AM PDT SpeedyFox is a free portable utility, which you can use in order to optimize and speed up Mozilla’s Firefox and Thunderbird, as well as Google Chrome and Skype. These days using all of the previously mentioned applications on older computers doesn’t exactly work like a charm, because they are becoming more resource hungry. With SpeedyFox you can make things work a little faster, at least to some extent. SpeedyFox isn’t a very large application, it’s less than a megabyte in size, and the interface of it, which can be seen on the image above, it doesn’t have a lot of options, which is no surprise because the way that SpeedyFox optimizes and speeds up previously mentioned applications doesn’t require a lot of menus and buttons, one’s more than enough, and that’s exactly what you get. Let’s do a recap, supported applications whose performance can be improved by SpeedyFox are:
On the image above we can see that only two browsers are listed, that’s because these two are the only ones which are installed on our system. All the others were not found on the system and they are not on the list of applications which can be optimized. Similar software: XP Somker, Techie Bot, Argente Utilities How to optimize Firefox, Chrome, Thunderbird and Skype with SpeedyFoxYou can start by opening up SpeedyFox. It’s a portable application, there’s no need for installation, just download it, run and you should see the main application window, the one on the image above. You can use SpeedyFox on Windows and Mac, it’s cross platform, which is a big plus, but does it really improve performance of all of the applications that is says it does? We tested it with Google Chrome and Firefox and what we tested were startup times from starting the application to seeing it fully loaded and ready for use. Before optimization was applied, these were the results:
Since we use Google Chrome more heavily and it has more plugins installed, it loads a bit slower for us, let’s see if we can decrease these numbers with the help of SpeedyFox. After clicking on Optimize it started doing its thing: What SpeedyFox does is it scans the cache databases of applications and checks to see if there are files present which could be causing slowdowns. If there are it takes care of them so that the apps don’t have to notice with them when used. After the optimization was finished, we repeated the test and we got these numbers:
ConclusionNote that we only used a stopwatch to measure these times, we didn’t perform any kind of actual benchmark tests. There are some improvements, and these aren’t caused by the apps being opened and closed already, or because they were running in tray which is what Chrome does. Both of the apps were run several times already during the first test, and then right away after optimization. You might get different results, the important thing is that SpeedyFox is free, so it doesn’t cost you anything to try and see if it really works.

Perform various Mathematical Functions with Tibi’s Mathematics Suite Posted: 07 Sep 2012 05:00 AM PDT Tibi's Mathematics Suite is a free application which allows you to perform some of the major mathematical functions and thus eliminate the need of any manual calculations. This suite works one step ahead of the traditional calculators by offering you a variety of functions such as factorization, matrix calculation, graphing calculator and scientific calculator. Of course, this is is a good deal for our students and others who wish to perform some basic functions to avoid any manual calculations. Let's check out how this application might help you! Using Tibi's Mathematics SuiteTo begin using this application, you need to download and install the application. Once the application starts running you can see it in the task bar. Simply, right click the application to choose any function. As you can see, choosing any function, launches the application window for that particular application. Also check out free math learning websites reviewed by us. FactorizatorUsing Factorizator is simple. All you need to do is enter the number in the space provided. On factorization, as you would do in the conventional method, the remainder and divisors are computed so that you can list the factors. However, the time taken to compute also depends on the number of digits. Graphing CalculatorOne of the most interesting features of Tibi's Mathematics Suite is the graphing calculator. As the name suggests, this functions closely with graphs and you can plot them, evaluate them or even integrate them. Importing expressions is also not a big deal! So you understand how powerful this function can be. We took a basic function '2x+5' and plotted a graph using this suite. This can be a great help for the kids who have a tough time plotting graphs in their maths homework! Now, integrate the expression. However the software warns that the results might not be accurate. You can set the integration limits too. Matrix calculatorOnce again, another innovative feature present in the suite, Matrix calculator would be a respite to most of the students who dread completing their Matrix questions. Let's have a look at what Matrix calculator can do for you. As you can see in the snapshot above, we can consider two matrices at a time. The preview for identity matrix and zero matrix can be seen on the left and can accrodingly be adjusted to add/delete rows and columns. Once you add matrices to slot A and B, you can perform any operation as listed in the window above. For performing operations on a single matrix, you just need to add the matrix to a single slot. The above snapshot captures the Matrix menu which can help you perform loads of tasks. Explore and you can perform almost anything with the matrix calculator. Suppose, we wish to add two matrices. Now we chose the option 'New Matrix' from the menu to create our own data. We created a 3×3 matrix. We clicked on 'apply' and the matrix was added to the matrices present on left panel. Similarly, we created another 3×3 matrix and added to our matrix list. The next task was to insert the matrices in their respective slots. Now, we will click on the required operation to display the result, in this case being 'A*B'. Scientific calculatorFinally, this suite offers you the scientific calculator to make your calculations far easier with a number of functions as compared to the traditional calculator. VerdictAs you might have understood by now, this suite makes lots of functions easier. So you can definitely give it a try! Download Tibi's mathematics suite free.
