Google Shows Report About Modular Phone Project Progress Via Video

In January Google launched a program called project Ara which is totally based on the modular phone technology, in which people can change the components that enable them to add more functionality to the device. Now Google has put all the rumors to rest and announced a conference in which they will show their progress of that project. Firm has released a video which showing the quick progress and all happenings which going on behind the project Ara. Advance Technology and Project group is also working on 3 D rendering device in Google Labs which they shown in last month known as project Tango. Now the project Ara is a codename for a modular phone development on which Motorola working. The modular phones are futuristic devices which made up of few swappable components, which can be slatted together in various slots.



TechCrunch Reported “Designing an interface to explain the modular smartphone concept to users is something the video touches on, with an Ara configurator app shown to be in the works. ”We’re really trying to make this interface as simple as possible, and as spacially intuitive as we can,” says Eric Gunther, co-founder of SoSo Ltd, an interactive design studio that’s working with Google’s ATAP on the design of this app. The connecting force Google is going to use to bind all the phone blocks in each modular device is magnetism. Or “electro-permanent magnetism”, as the video puts it”


This project has making lot conversations on social networks such as Twitter and Facebook. Microsoft is also working on the same with Windows Phone.The video that firm launched is consisting of all the progress behind the projects and all employees and workers are telling their part and how they feel about the project.
