Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, itekhnoloji entsha iyaqhubeka ukusothusa yonke imihla. Ndisandula ukufunda ilungelo lomenzi lokuba u-Apple ufumene ulwazi kakhulu. Ngaba Inkqubo yokuhambisa ukungena kwamanzi Ingaziswa ngeefowuni ze-iPhone okanye iApple Watch.
Kulapho kufika khona ukucaphuka kwam. Ndijonge eyam Apple Watch kwaye ndiyabona ukuba ineeslits ezimbini kwicala lasekhohlo (izithethi) kunye nomngxunya omncinci (imakrofoni) ngasekunene. Kwaye ngokwe-Apple iyangena emanzini iimitha ezingama-50. Ukuba le nkqubo yokukhutshwa kwabantu inelungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza… Yeyiphi inkqubo eza kusetyenziswa ngoku? Ndiyathemba ukuba iyasebenza ... kulungile, masithembe iinjineli zaseCupertino ...
I-Ofisi yePatent yase-United States kunye ne-Ofisi yoRhwebo isandula ukunika ipatent entsha kwi-Apple enesihloko esithi "Iifowuni ezifanelekileyo ze-elektroniki«, Apho inkampani icacisa inkqubo entsha yokufaka umoya ngaphakathi kwizixhobo ezincinci ezingangeni manzi njenge-iPhone okanye iApple Watch.
Yinkqubo enezikhuselo ngokuchasene nayo Ukungena kwamanzi kwimibhobho yomoya epholisa isixhobo ngaphakathi. Iqulethe isivamvo esibonisa ukungena kwamanzi, kunye nenkqubo yokuvalwa ethintela ukudlula kokufuma kungene isixhobo.
Indlela yokuvala indlela yamanzi inokwenziwa ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo. Isenokuba kungenxa yokuba ukungcangcazela, ukugxotha i-microdroplets zamanzi ngaphandle, okanye nge umphunga, yi-ultrasound okanye i-infrared heater.
Le patent yafakwa kwiinjineli ze-Apple uDavid MacNeil, uRoberto M. Ribeiro, kunye noWilliam S. Lee. Eyona nto isengqiqweni kukuba ukuba inkampani ithathe isigqibo sokuphumeza olu hlobo lwesisombululo nakweyiphi na izixhobo zayo, iya kuba zezizo ezichaseneyo namanzi, ezinje I-Apple Watch kunye ne-iPhone.
Ukuba ekugqibeleni le patent iba yinyani kwaye isixhobo sokukhanyisa ngombane siphela sinyamalala, sinokubona imodeli yexesha elizayo ukuntywila emanzini iimitha ezingama-50, njenge Apple Watch. ngoba kutheni?
