Apple update 2017-wwdc17 6 new updates up for you guys.

 So in june 5 there was a programs held at sanjose and 6 new updates on apple were announced
1.Apple watch :-
                      
At WWDC17 Apple previewed what's coming to WatchOS 4 in fall 2017. Here's a quick look at some of the new features that will be available to Watch owners via a software update:





Siri Watch face: Siri is an automatic face that pops contextual notifications into a continuous scroll of info. Google Now tried this with Android Wear. Can a Siri watch face be better? Apple is showing this off as a quick-access tool for appointments, Wallet tickets and more.
"Toy Story" and other animated faces, but no Watch Face store: Woody, Buzz and other "Toy Story" characters are now built-in animated faces. It sounds like an extension of what's available with Mickey Mouse. But Apple still hasn't launched a way to sell third-party watch faces.
A new Music App: Apple acknowledges that music wasn't an Apple Watch strong suit. A new app will automatically sync songs and playlists, and more than one playlist. Music playlists can be set to start with workouts in the Workout app, too.
Workout and fitness enhancements: Workouts can be swapped on the fly, Apple's Activity mode has extra monthly challenges and the Watch can sync with certain brands of gym equipment to share workout data.
Bluetooth for sports and health gear: The Apple Watch will work with medical and sports devices over Bluetooth at last, opening up glucose monitors, trackers and lots of other possible accessories.





HomePod
Apple is taking on Amazon (AMZN, Tech30) and Google (GOOG) with its very own smart speaker, the HomePod. The 7-inch high speaker looks like the top of a microphone. Available in white and black, the $349 device is being marketed as a smart speaker with higher quality audio than its competitors.














It has six microphones that are always listening for the trigger phrase "Hey, Siri." It works with Apple Music and your existing iTunes library to play tunes or podcasts. If you have other devices connected to Apple's smart home app, you can control them though the speaker as well. It also does the usual smart speaker tasks, like playing the news, setting timers and answering basic questions.
Apple TV adds Amazon
While Apple is going after Amazon with the HomePod, it's offering an olive branch with Apple TV. Amazon's Prime Video app will soon be available on Apple TV. CEO Tim Cook said Apple was pleased about the partnership, and mentioned some original Amazon content like Transparent.
The announcement marks a detente of sorts between the two companies, which have been locked in a streaming rivalry for years. In 2015, Amazon went so far as to pull listings for the Apple TV from its online store.









The Mac
Apple is pushing the Mac as a machine that's made for virtual reality, with new hardware and software updates built for VR.
The company is releasing a new version of its operating system for Macs. Coming this fall, macOS will be called High Sierra.
The OS is getting VR support, said Craig Federighi, including support for Unity, Unreal and Metal for VR.
There are number of small changes in High Sierra. Safari is adding autoplay blocking, so videos don't start playing without your approval. The browser is also adding "intelligent" tracking prevention in order to cut down on ads that follow you around the Internet.
The Photos app is adding new filters, and Apple says it has improved the face detection feature. Categories, faces and favorites will be synchronized across devices.
Apple is porting its Apple File System to macOS. It's a mostly under-the-hood change, but users will notice a difference. For example, duplicating a file will be nearly instant. Video compression will be higher quality, according to Apple.
"It's time for a more modern file system," said Federighi.





                                                   



An iMac for pros
Apple really wants to hold on to its professional users. Its Mac Pro hasn't been updated since 2013, and Apple says the next version will be available some time next year. To bridge the gap, it's built a superpowered version of its all-in-one iMac that will be available in December.

The new iMac Pro is a matte gray 27-inch computer that Apple says is the most powerful Mac it's ever made. Starting at $4,999 for the basic configuration, the 5K machine will come with an 8-core, 10-core or 18-core Xeon processors. It can have up to 22 teraflops of graphics power. Apple says the machine is fast enough for real-time 3D rendering, code compiling and designing virtual reality content.
"That iMac Pro really is bad ass," said Cook.










                                                 
Every Mac gets an update
Apple's other PCs are all getting speed and performance updates. iMacs are getting across-the-board speed improvements and more storage. They'll also include higher performance graphics chips to support VR. The company had Industrial Light and Magic's John Knoll on stage for a live demo of a Vive virtual reality Star Wars game using a Mac.
MacBook and MacBook Pros are getting updates as well. The company is also adding a cheaper $1,300 MacBook Pro option. The neglected MacBook Air is not dead, but it only got one brief mention. It will have a bump in megahertz. That's it.
iOS 11
In iOS 11, Apple's forthcoming mobile operating system, the company is introducing peer-to-peer payments through iMessage. Apple is taking on money-sharing apps like Venmo and Square Cash, as you'll be able to use Apple Pay to send friends money via chat.
Siri also got an update -- the virtual assistant can translate English into five different languages: Chinese, French, German, Italian and Spanish, with more coming in the future.
Apple is introducing a number of effects into the Live Photos feature. It will use machine learning to turn your Live Photos into shareable looping images and select individual clips from the photo.
It's also adding a feature to block notifications while the phone is in Car Play mode. You won't get any notifications while in the car, and if you look at your phone, you'll see an alert reminding you that you won't receive notifications while on the road. It will automatically send a text message to people who text you to let them know you'll respond later.








Apple wants to get in on augmented reality too
Look for more augmented reality in the next version of IOS.
Apple announced ARKit, a new developer application for adding virtual objects to real surfaces in the camera. Like Facebook (FB, Tech30), Apple's demo started with a fake cup of coffee on an actual table.
The tool uses the iPhone camera, processors and motion sensors to make objects look real. Motion tracking, ambient lighting and scale estimation will let developers create augmented reality in their own apps.
A revamped App Store
Apple is redesigning the App Store, its first major overhaul in its nine years. The store's 500 million weekly users will see new tabs highlighting curated collections and article-like stories made by Apple, not just developers. A Today section will show off apps the company wants to highlight, a Games tab will do the same for games and also display in-app purchases.
watchOS
Apple previewed the next version of watchOS 4, its operating system for the Apple Watch. There are new watch faces. A Siri face will show more info from the assistant, like flight times, controls for smart home devices and third-party notifications. A kaleidoscope face shows trippy animations, and new Toy Story character watch faces let Woody tell you the time.


The watch can communicate with some gym equipment to share data between the two -- like your heart rate or the treadmill's incline. Starting in the fall, Apple Watch compatible equipment will start coming to gyms from companies like Cybex, Schwinn and Matrix.
If you hit workout goals, you'll now get fancier animations to give you a greater sense of satisfaction. There are new workout updates, like one that can tell when you're swimming and reach the end of the lane. The free OS upgrade will be available in the fall.
iPads
Apple is releasing a new iPad Pro with brighter retina displays. It comes in two sizes, the usual 12-9 inch and a new 10.5-inch screen. The bigger surface will fit a full-size on-screen keyboard and an attachable physical keyboard, though there's no touchpad. It has a number of speed and performance improvements, and has a 12 megapixel back camera.
In iOS 11, iPads will have new features that are taken directly from the Mac. You can drag and drop between apps and get an overview of what's open. There's a built-in document scanner in the camera and a way to draw inside of your emails.
A dystopian future
A new Apple ad showed what the world could look like without apps, triggered after a hapless Apple employee unplugged something in a server room. Hipsters panic trying to read paper maps, cars pile up in the roads. and a girl hands out printed selfies. An "app" black market sets up shop in a back alley, complete with a physical Tinder and booth for crushing real candy.

THIS MACHINE GENERATES WATER FROM AIR.



COOL INNOVATION GENERATING WATER FROM AIR:-

                      

                                                                                                    How cool would it be if there was a machine which could generated water from air.There in a machine developed which converts the humidity air consists into water.
An atmospheric water generator (AWG) is a device that extracts water from humid ambient air. Water vapor in the air is condensed by cooling the air below its dew point, exposing the air to desiccants, or pressurizing the air. Unlike a dehumidifier, an AWG is designed to render the water potable. AWGs are useful where pure drinking water is difficult or impossible to obtain, because there is almost always a small amount of water in the air that can be extracted. The two primary techniques in use are cooling and desiccants.
The extraction of atmospheric water may not be free of cost, because significant input of energy is required to drive some AWG processes. Certain traditional AWG methods are completely passive, relying on natural temperature differences, and requiring no external energy source. Research has also developed AWG technologies to produce useful yields of water at a reduced (but non-zero) energy cost.


                                   So here the question arises, where could this technology be used-everywhere but mainly it would be huge relief to the places where water is the huge problem in livlihood. 
  
       HOW DOES IT WORK?
Mainly there are two types of technology used to produce water from air:
1.cooling condensation
2.wet desiccation
 process is mentioned below:-

1.Cooling condensation


Example of cooling-condensation process.
In a cooling condensation type atmospheric water generator, a compressor circulates refrigerant through a condenser and then an evaporator coil which cools the air surrounding it. This lowers the air temperature to its dew point, causing water to condense. A controlled-speed fan pushes filtered air over the coil. The resulting water is then passed into a holding tank with purification and filtration system to help keep the water pure and reduce the risk posed by viruses and bacteria which may be collected from the ambient air on the evaporator coil by the condensing water.[4]
The rate at which water can be produced depends on relative humidity and ambient air temperature and size of the compressor. Atmospheric water generators become more effective as relative humidity and air temperature increase. As a rule of thumb, cooling condensation atmospheric water generators do not work efficiently when the temperature falls below 18.3°C (65°F) or the relative humidity drops below 30%. This means they are relatively inefficient when located inside air-conditioned offices. The cost-effectiveness of an AWG depends on the capacity of the machine, local humidity and temperature conditions and the cost to power the unit.
New emerging technology utilize the Peltier effect of semi-conducting materials in which one side of the semi-conducting material heats while the other side cools. In this application, air is forced over the cooling fins on the side that cools which lowers the temperature of the air to its dew point, causing water to condense. The resulting water is then collected. Due to the solid-state nature of the semi-conducting material and the lower power usage, some of these new designs use solar energy panels as the power source[citation needed].
The drinking water generation capacity can be enhanced in low humidity ambient air conditions, first by using the evaporative cooler with a brackish water supply to increase the air humidity near to dew point condition. Thus drinking water is generated using brackish water without depending on ambient air humidity by the water generator.

2.Wet desiccation

One form of wet desiccant water generation involves the use of salt in a concentrated brine solution to absorb the ambient humidity. These systems then extract the water from the solution and purify it for consumption. A version of this technology was developed as portable devices which run on generators. Large versions, mounted on trailers, are said to produce up to 1,200 US gallons (4,500 l) of water per day, at a ratio of up to 5 gallons of water per gallon of fuel.[5] This technology was contracted for use by the US Army and the US Navy from Terralab[citation needed] and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).[6]
A variation of this technology has been developed to be more environmentally friendly, primarily through the use of passive solar energy and gravity. Brine is streamed down the outside of towers, where it absorbs water from the air. The brine then enters a chamber and subjected to a partial vacuum and heated. The water vapor is collected and condensed, while the renewed brine is recirculated through the system. As the condensed water is removed from the system using gravity, it creates the vacuum which lowers the boiling point of the brine.[7]
Prototype systems combining adsorption, refrigeration and condensation are also being developed.[8][9]
  

       AREAS IT COULD BE UTILIZED:-

1.HOME:-

                               Image result for home

                         Houses has a limited need of water in their daily basis.Places where water is a problem in availability,this machine could be used as an alternative.Home size machine of it can produce upto 32 litres of water in a day according to the humidity in the area.


2. For offices/restaurants:-

Image result for office and restaurants
                                                              Use of water is very high in amount in the places like office and restaurants where there is a huge crowd. So,this machine can help in producing water through air, saving money. 


3.Deserted areas:-

                     


             The main relief is for the people who face difficulty in survival in deserted area where water scarcity kills habitats and people have to suffer a lot like:- they have to travel for miles for some litres of water which is also to be precisely used.
                                                    The machine like these if built in a huge format these sort of cities can have there life-"water" sufficiently.
