AT&T and Verizon To Launch Red Hydrogen One on Friday, November 2nd, with exclusive offers

Red Hydrogen One is the first smartphone produced by the cinema camera manufacturer Red, which would also be the first holographic smartphone in the world. It would cost $43.17 for a 30-month contract with eligibility for AT&T’s upgrade service Next, as reported by Android Authority. That means the total cost of the new device would be $1,295.10.

Verizon will also release Red Hydrogen One on Friday but with a different plan. According to Android Authority, Verizon would sell the world’s first holographic smartphone for $53.95 per month for 24 months, totaling a cost of $1,294.80 at the end of the contract.

Red Hydrogen One Is the World’s First Holographic Smartphone

Red Hydrogen One’s main feature is the proprietary display technology called “4-View” (4V) which is designed to create a holographic experience for the first time in the world of smartphones. According to those who witnessed this function, “4-View” generates an interesting visual effect, even though is not like what we see in SciFi movies as nothing pops out of the screen.

Instead, the holographic effect of Red Hydrogen One is more related to screen depth than to an actual hologram. “4-View” would permit you to see different angles of an image on display depending on how you hold the handset.

Also, the 4V technology would be useless without the implication of devs and content producers. To take advantage of the “4-View” holographic technology, apps creators, as well as content makers, must come up with 4-View-compatible products. Besides, according to AT&T, a series of 4V-compatible movies would also be available once the Hydrogen Network is up and live.

Western Union, Volkswagen, And AT&T Filed The Patents For Apps Based On Blockchain Technology

As a sign of the current exploration of the blockchain technology benefits for big companies, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) publicized, on July 5th, some patent applications based on this technology filed by Volkswagen, Western Union, and AT&T.

Volkswagen adopts blockchain technology for vehicle-to-vehicle communication

Volkswagen’s patent, the Method application, is a digital storage medium for vehicle-to-vehicle communication. The system is an exchange of messages between vehicles, in which every message is connected to the previous one and cryptographically encrypted

In this system, which employs the immutability and encryption of the blockchain technology, no party can modify the previously released data, presenting a complete negotiation.

Western Union patented its own blockchain technology app

Western Union filed a patent application for a system of notifications of recurrent secure transfers and payments. This app, based on blockchain technology, would permit receiving and processing transactions and data transfer in various domains within electronic networks.

The unprecedented thing with this patent application, however, is that Western Union included cryptocurrencies among the assets that can be transferred on its system’s blockchain.

AT&T to introduce a token as a mean of exchange

AT&T launched the “System and Method for Generating a Secure Token from a Service Provider” which debates the generation of a token by an online service provider based on user account information. This token would be employed as a means of exchange between AT&T and the user for upcoming apps and systems which could be related to an online gaming platform.

The document from AT&T refers to the generation of a secure token and suggests other data that the provider will manage, including the user’s account data. Before, the telecommunication company had already obtained the acceptance of another patent. Namely, in June 2017 AT&T got the green light to implement blockchain technology and cryptocurrency in the collection of its domestic services.
