MWC 22: Curiosities that the world’s largest connectivity event left us

The Mobile World Congress de Barcelona It returned at full throttle in its MWC 22 edition, presenting us the latest from the world of connectivity and also some curiosities.

Xiaomi with old tricks: Cyberdog and the transparent TV

Already in 2020 we reported on the transparent TV from Xiaomibut still did not stop pulling looks at the Fira Barcelona.

The 55” TV has a transparent OLED panel that offers eye-catching features like 120Hz refresh rate. Of course, even in Full HD resolution.

A very interesting concept, especially for stores. For the home it doesn’t seem ideal, especially considering that it launched for about $8,000 to change.

The cyberdog is more recent, presented in August 2021, this curious robot has the computational power of NVIDIA Jetson Xacier and a navigation system by Intel.

It’s cheaper than similar bots, costing a “few” $2,700 versus Spot’s $75,000.

Telefónica’s 5G bartender

Telefónica showed the potential of 5G with a robot barman from Macco Robotics. It was one of the most striking exhibitions in Hall 3 of the Fira Barcelona.

The robot bartender served many attendees, though he wasn’t one of the fastest. We expect a faster version in future editions.

The watch that measures up to Huawei’s heart pressure

Smart watches are capable of measuring more things. The Huawei Watch D goes beyond the oximeter or cardiogram meter with the addition of a blood pressure measurement system.

For it, Huawei uses a micropump that makes the necessary pressure to perform this type of measurement.

The Huawei Watch D It was initially launched in China, but its presence with a model already in English gives us hope that it will soon be seen in other markets.

Samsung and the personalizing robot

The Galaxy Z Flip 3 from Samsung have made many people regain interest in the “toads”, but now in a version with a folding screen.

Samsung showed in Barcelona robotic arms that personalize cell phones in their Bespoke version. In real time, it was possible to choose the colors of the cell phone and see how the robot changed the covers.
