2016-02-21
hey Tom of the verge and we're looking at the world's first smartphone with a thermal-imaging camera at about here this is the cat s60 it's just been announced Mobile World Congress just before and basically uses a fluid camera at the top here combined with a regular camera and the effects are kind of cool as you imagine you can look around and see all the thermal hotspots and the kind of unique things obviously combining the two cameras to get you like a sense of the object so you actually see in the thermal imagery from so I'll give you a good demo so it's my hand and a table in front of me I'm gonna put my hand down in front of there and just still see the thermal print and you can imagine like a scenario where you're a fireman I'm not I don't go to the gym that much so I'm definitely not a fireman you imagine if you were and you turned up at scene of a crime it's like someone's burnt a house down and you find like fingerprints to stuff like that that's a good good example or your electrician you're checking out a fuse box or even in construction work and looking at like he just painting out buildings any sort of stuff at that and obviously all the focuses at the moment are for on the sort business side of things you could imagine in the future if these start to get built onto regular consumer phones that you could do like a our stuff in games which would kind of use the thermal camera it could be kind of interesting to see where that goes it's obviously a regular Android phone it's got a Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor free gig of ram and it's coming out in May and so it's obviously a rugged phone so you know you're not going to be buying this as a consumer but this sort of technology is the first of its kind and we probably see it on future smartphones so I was a quick look at the cat's X 60 and if you want to see more from Mobile World Congress then subscribe to our youtube channel at youtube.com/mobilenations
