:00:46. > :00:51.healthy take fair, as we discover the crop of gadgets aiming to keep
:00:51. > :00:55.you in tip-top condition. 8 million pixels but nothing on. We will find
:00:55. > :01:00.that when we will be able to watch anything on these new Super high-

:01:14. > :01:18.Welcome to Click. Welcome back to Las Vegas. This week we are at a
:01:18. > :01:24.restaurant called The Heart Attack Grill, home to the world famous
:01:24. > :01:30.Quadruple Bypass Burger, which at 9982 calories, it comes in just
:01:30. > :01:34.under the crucial 10,000 can the remark. We are in Las Vegas for the
:01:34. > :01:41.consumer electronics show, which explores some of the technology
:01:41. > :01:51.themes that are going to be big in 2013. One of them had turned out to
:01:51. > :01:54.be health technology. A new raft of health gadgets to
:01:54. > :01:58.monitor everything from pulse to oxygen levels is getting every
:01:58. > :02:07.fitness addicts' hearts racing. But if you've been around the block a
:02:07. > :02:09.bit, using tech to check your vital signs isn't anything new. Some of
:02:09. > :02:13.the more popular gadgets are this watch, for example, that can
:02:13. > :02:16.measure my heart rate through a strap sensor that I am wearing on
:02:16. > :02:19.my chest, sending the details wirelessly to this screen or a posh
:02:19. > :02:27.pedometer that use accelerometers to tell you how many steps you have
:02:27. > :02:30.taken during the day. And FitBit, the market leader at the moment,
:02:30. > :02:34.has moved to a strap-based solution which is going to be available from
:02:34. > :02:42.March. And that tells me just at the glance of a few lights how
:02:42. > :02:45.close I am to my target. No chance of that happening today!
:02:45. > :02:48.Rather than wearing something new though, how about using what you
:02:48. > :02:52.probably already wear when working out to keep an eye on your
:02:52. > :02:57.progress? Monica here doesn't appear to have anything but her MP3
:02:57. > :03:00.player turned on, but the ear buds are different. An infra-red sensor
:03:00. > :03:09.detects blood flow inside the ear to determine heart rate, while an
:03:09. > :03:12.accelerometer inside takes a good guess at distance travelled. This
:03:12. > :03:17.is the first product to use the hidden technology which is due out
:03:17. > :03:21.in spring. Of course you still have to look at your phone to see how
:03:21. > :03:27.you're doing. OK if you're in the gym, not so handy when out on the
:03:27. > :03:30.road. This sun visor is linked to a strap that's monitoring my heart,
:03:30. > :03:35.that information is sent wirelessly to a tiny screen that is just on
:03:35. > :03:42.the end of my vision. So you know your heart rate, pace, and incline
:03:42. > :03:46.climbed. All this data, so what are we expected to do with it?
:03:46. > :03:49.biggest challenge that we face at Polar is not to provide them with
:03:49. > :03:52.the information, but what they do with the information, how do they
:03:52. > :03:55.interpret it, how do they use it, I think that's the biggest challenge.
:03:55. > :03:59.I think the companies that are here now, measuring things, are showing
:03:59. > :04:01.them information about themselves, but how do you interpret that?
:04:01. > :04:03.These futuristic-looking shades could be one answer, they can be
:04:03. > :04:08.pre-programmed with different coloured lights that tell me
:04:08. > :04:11.whether I need to speed up or slow down to hit my target. There is
:04:11. > :04:16.also a rather incessant Aussie shouting in my ear saying pretty
:04:16. > :04:25.much the same thing. Heart rate below target! Yeah, all right, all
:04:25. > :04:27.right. Sometimes it's not how fast you move but simply how you move.
:04:27. > :04:30.Xsens is a Dutch outfit that provides motion tracking to
:04:30. > :04:36.Hollywood studios who use it to map computer animation to human
:04:36. > :04:39.movement. And now it's produced a cut down consumer version, sporting
:04:39. > :04:49.anything up to 15 sensors which could help runners, golfers, or
:04:49. > :04:53.ballet dancers perfect their technique. Many of the devices I've
:04:53. > :04:55.picked up so far are using a new low powered version of Bluetooth.
:04:55. > :04:58.Meaning batteries could last for days or weeks but eventually one
:04:58. > :05:07.company hopes our workouts themselves will power these devices
:05:07. > :05:12.by converting body heat to electricity. Advances in fitness
:05:12. > :05:14.and health care tech aren't just wireless. All sorts of tools can
:05:14. > :05:17.now be plugged into your mobile device, like this breath tester,
:05:17. > :05:23.which could be used to encourage kids with asthma to develop their
:05:23. > :05:26.lung capacity, or for patients recovering from accidents. And this
:05:26. > :05:31.finger monitor plugs into an iPad to give accurate blood oxygen
:05:31. > :05:34.levels. A bit specialist this one, useful for mountaineers or pilots
:05:34. > :05:40.who carry tablets everywhere they go, but the idea could in future be
:05:40. > :05:44.introduced in clinics or hospitals. Taking care of ourselves through
:05:45. > :05:48.home monitoring is also a big trend. The company selling these announced
:05:48. > :05:53.a deal that may also relieve us of having to collate and make sense of
:05:54. > :05:56.the information too. It's linked up with security firm ADT which will
:05:56. > :06:03.start offering monitoring of you by a professional as well as
:06:04. > :06:06.monitoring of your home by their security experts. And telemedicine,
:06:06. > :06:11.once the preserve of developing countries, could help slash health
:06:11. > :06:14.costs in places like America. HealthSpot has come up with these
:06:14. > :06:17.pop up clinics where patients check themselves in and speak face to
:06:17. > :06:26.screen with a doctor who can ask them to carry out various tests
:06:26. > :06:28.using the onsite equipment. Monitoring what's around you could
:06:28. > :06:34.be crucial to maintaining your health, or so thinks Lapka which
:06:34. > :06:37.has developed the chain of plug-in testers. One is radiation, another
:06:37. > :06:44.tells you if your food is organic by measuring the level of nitrates
:06:44. > :06:46.present. And then there's the slightly more bizarre ideas. These
:06:46. > :06:53.glasses induce relaxation or can spark fresh energy through a
:06:53. > :06:58.psychedelic mixture of colour and sound. Its makers claim they can be
:06:58. > :07:05.used to treat all kinds of ailments. Sadly I still had jet lag after my
:07:05. > :07:15.10 minutes. But perhaps the most ambitious project at the expo was
:07:15. > :07:19.
:07:19. > :07:22.one that hopes to create something we've so far only imagined. The
:07:22. > :07:25.idea of a Tricorder as featured in Star Trek is the vision of Qualcomm
:07:25. > :07:28.and the X PRIZE Foundation who are putting up $10 million in prize
:07:28. > :07:37.money for the individual or company who can make the instant wireless
:07:37. > :07:40.diagnostic kit a reality by 2015. Perhaps the most important aspect
:07:40. > :07:42.of this is, beyond all the technical requirements to capture
:07:43. > :07:45.15 different disease states and vital signs, the ability to make
:07:45. > :07:47.cogent and intelligent information available to consumers that would
:07:48. > :07:50.give them a clear understanding of their health status and an
:07:50. > :07:53.understanding, directionally of what to do about what they have
:07:53. > :08:03.learnt from their device may prove to be the most important and
:08:03. > :08:05.significant achievement. A fragmented health and fitness
:08:05. > :08:12.marketplace filled with gadgets measuring a myriad of different
:08:12. > :08:22.things all seamlessly rolled into one simple device? It's technology,
:08:22. > :08:31.
:08:31. > :08:37.Jim, but not as we know it. Yet. If you are wondering about the
:08:37. > :08:45.outfit, this restaurant insist that all of its patients, Surrey, its
:08:45. > :08:50.customers, wear a surgical gown. A look at this week's Ten News.
:08:50. > :08:54.Where is the dessert menu? Facebook revealed a new social
:08:54. > :08:59.search engine that scans the side's content, called Graph Search. It
:08:59. > :09:03.lets users look through information that their friends find rot --
:09:03. > :09:10.relevant, such as restaurants or music that they like. The neutral
:09:10. > :09:17.will respect uses' privacy settings, only throwing up results that they
:09:17. > :09:21.could find themselves by browsing the site, adding that it will not
:09:21. > :09:30.be a competition with Google. The once big daddy of social
:09:30. > :09:34.networks, MySpace, has been given a week that. MySpace's strands have

:09:40. > :09:45.emphasis on the lot -- discovering a new music. The jukebox jury is
:09:45. > :09:50.out on whether the pop-star's reflected glory is enough to jump-
:09:50. > :09:54.start the social networking site. A big decision on who has control
:09:54. > :09:57.over your images has been taking place in America, following a two-
:09:57. > :10:02.year court case in New York, the district judge has ruled that you
:10:02. > :10:08.do. Photographer Dan your morale took photos in the aftermath of the
:10:08. > :10:12.Haiti earthquake and posted them on Twitter. A court ruled that two and
:10:12. > :10:17.news organisations distributed one of his photos without his
:10:17. > :10:21.permission, even though he had shed them on Twitter. Finally, the White
:10:21. > :10:29.House has officially announced that the US would not be ordered a Death
:10:29. > :10:33.Star, even though 35,000 Americans signed a petition requesting one.
:10:33. > :10:40.In a tongue-in-cheek response, President Obama's demonstration

:10:51. > :10:56.on. It also acknowledge the overriding power of the force.
:10:56. > :11:02.Over the last few months, there has been a lot of talk about the latest
:11:02. > :11:07.type of screen technology. On the hills of hi-def and 3D, comes 4K,
:11:07. > :11:11.with four times the resolution of the new hi-def TV. I'm surprisingly,
:11:12. > :11:16.there were a lot of 4K announcements at sea as, and a
:11:16. > :11:24.great opportunity for Ian Hardy to find out where and when 4K will

:11:30. > :11:34.Flowers, food and festival footage. That can only mean one thing, the
:11:34. > :11:38.newest TV technology is on display and ready for prime time. At least
:11:38. > :11:46.that is what the electronics manufacturers would like consumers
:11:46. > :11:52.to believe that. But it is not quite that simple. Because without
:11:52. > :11:56.content, a TV is just a big black space. To get the most out of a 4K
:11:56. > :12:01.or opera high-definition TV, the content has to contain four times
:12:01. > :12:06.as many pixels as a scene on a traditional HD screen. More pixels
:12:06. > :12:11.means a better image, and you may have already seen 4K at your local
:12:11. > :12:15.cinema, more and more films are being shot in this format, that is
:12:15. > :12:22.why one company is packaging a giant 84 inch screen and a media
:12:22. > :12:25.server in one, to get the ball rolling in the home. Because Sony
:12:25. > :12:33.also owns movie studios, we are uniquely positioned to offer
:12:33. > :12:41.content. We are offering a video player, it will come loaded. There
:12:41. > :12:45.are a tonne of shorts, independent movies. Also really amazing shots.
:12:45. > :12:55.Sony's new content delivery service would not be up and running and
:12:55. > :12:57.
:12:57. > :13:01.will later this year, when more details will be revealed. Moving 84
:13:01. > :13:08.K video around is currently not that easy because of the higher
:13:08. > :13:15.file servers -- sizes. Today's internet is too slow in most
:13:15. > :13:20.countries. Delivery will become easier as band with the limits
:13:20. > :13:25.increase, and video file sizes get smaller. The ability to cut bit
:13:25. > :13:29.rates in half and/file sizes dramatically without losing any of
:13:29. > :13:37.the quality is thanks to a new codec that will replace the current
:13:38. > :13:45.one, which is caught H.264. It's squishes the BDO down to smaller
:13:45. > :13:50.sizes. With the new codec, it is called H.265, it can save 40% of
:13:50. > :13:55.the video a size. You can compress it down and get it to deliver it.
:13:55. > :14:02.There are dozens of screens at the show playing 4K content. I had seen
:14:02. > :14:06.many of them in person. It is the bed, crisp, very colourful. But if
:14:06. > :14:11.we want to create the same content, certainly within the next he also,
:14:11. > :14:16.it may prove to be a bit of a challenge. One of the most
:14:16. > :14:22.affordable solutions is the go pro hero three, but this will only
:14:22. > :14:30.record at two frame rates, 12 and 15, far below the 120 frames per
:14:30. > :14:35.second scene in the best quality 4K footage. There is a misconception
:14:35. > :14:44.about what this mode is intended for. It is for very specific types
:14:44. > :14:49.of content. Time lapse is the popular one. If you absolutely
:14:49. > :14:53.cannot wait for whatever reason to start building a 4K library, then a
:14:53. > :14:59.top of the line DSLR From Canon Can do the job at a reasonable 24
:14:59. > :15:05.frames per second. It also records 4K content on to two Compact Flash
:15:05. > :15:10.Cards. Mummies and daddies with $12,000 to spare are delighted,
:15:10. > :15:15.because they no longer have to make the agonising decision to capture a
:15:15. > :15:23.once in a lifetime moment in either of video or photo mode. Forte can

:15:28. > :15:34.Still photography, some people have been shooting 24 frames and lifted
:15:34. > :15:44.the frames out. I have been astonished at the resolution. You
:15:44. > :15:47.
:15:47. > :15:51.can get a very fast burst. Photographs looked best on a 24
:15:51. > :15:56.inch tablet which Panasonic says it will be produced later this year
:15:56. > :16:01.for business users. As more and more video cameras become available,
:16:01. > :16:06.such as this one from JVC, it will make it easier to collect memories.
:16:06. > :16:11.For most of us, the technical and financial barriers of downloading,
:16:11. > :16:18.uploading, offloading, or creating native 4K video puts it out of
:16:18. > :16:21.reach. Not that we really need to worry. 4K television sets
:16:21. > :16:30.themselves are also priced somewhere between sky-high and out
:16:30. > :16:35.Las Vegas is somewhere that reminds you that this planet is an amazing
:16:35. > :16:38.place full of bizarre sights, sounds and smells. Of course you
:16:38. > :16:44.don't actually have to come here these days to experience the sights,
:16:44. > :16:48.you can just go online and look at them. Now Kate Russell has found
:16:48. > :16:53.somewhere where you can experience the sounds as well. Thankfully no

:22:21. > :22:25.in this chamber here- now the chamber then fills with this vapour
:22:25. > :22:28.which nano coats your devices after about half an hour you'll be able
