LONDON: Vodafone<\/a> is working with Google<\/a> to extend the battery life of a smartwatch<\/a> by reducing the \"chatter\" between the device and the network, a bigger drain of energy than screen brightness and other settings targeted by low power modes.
The mobile operator has developed an API<\/a> (application programming interface) that enables apps and operating systems, such as Google Android's Wear OS<\/a>, to reconfigure how they communicate with its network, Vodafone's director of network architecture Santiago Tenorio said.
\"With wearables, such as smartwatches and other devices<\/a>, battery life is incredibly important for our users,\" the companies said in a joint statement on Thursday.
\"That's why Vodafone and Google's Android team are collaborating to optimise battery life on Wear OS<\/a> by Google watches<\/a>.\"
Changes such as making the watch connect to the network intermittently instead of constantly and releasing the channel through which it was transmitting more quickly had been tested, Tenorio said.
Given the small size of battery in smartwatches, changing these parameters could extend the life of the device \"very significantly\", he said.
There was a cost in performance but the API could save users enough power to last until the end of a long run, he added.
The tech stems from Vodafone's involvement in a 2017 project with elite runner Kenenisa Bekele to break the two-hour marathon barrier.
The amount of data transmitted by sensors in the attempt drained a smartwatch battery in less than an hour, Tenorio said.
\"Bekele was fast, but he wasn't that fast,\" he said. \"In a couple of years we were able to extend the (battery) life to three and a half hours.\"
The technology could be available in Wear OS in the coming months, he said, adding that \"many more\" wearables partners were interested in the API.

沃达丰(Vodafone),谷歌希望延长穿OS smartwatch电池寿命
移动运营商开发了一个API(应用程序编程接口),使应用程序和操作系统,如谷歌Android的操作系统,重新配置他们如何与网络通信,沃达丰的网络体系结构圣地亚哥Tenorio主任说。

伦敦:沃达丰(Vodafone)正在与谷歌延长电池寿命smartwatch通过减少设备和网络之间的“喋喋不休”,一个更大的消耗的能源比其他设置屏幕亮度和低功耗的目标模式。
移动运营商已经开发了一个API(应用程序编程接口),使应用程序和操作系统,等谷歌Android的操作系统,重新配置他们如何与网络沟通,沃达丰的网络体系结构圣地亚哥Tenorio主任说。
“这套,smartwatches等设备,电池寿命是非常重要的对于我们的用户来说,“公司周四在一份联合声明中表示。
“这就是为什么沃达丰(Vodafone)和谷歌(Google) Android团队协作优化电池寿命穿操作系统通过谷歌的手表”。
变化等进行观察间歇地连接到网络,而不是不断地和释放的通道传输更快被测试,Tenorio说。
鉴于smartwatches电池的体积小,改变这些参数可以延长设备的生活“非常明显”,他说。
有一个成本的性能但API可以节省用户足够的电力将持续到结束的长远来看,他补充说。
科技源于沃达丰的参与2017项目精英选手贝克勒打破两小时的马拉松障碍。
通过传感器的数据量的排水smartwatch电池在不到一个小时,Tenorio说。
“贝克勒是快,但他没有那么快,“他说。“几年后我们能够延长(电池)寿命三个半小时。”
穿操作系统中可用的技术可以在接下来的几个月,他补充说,“更多的”这套API合作伙伴感兴趣。
