Podcast: The Nest doorbell is a great video doorbell

April 13, 2018 by Stacey Higginbotham 1 Comment

My Nest Hello fresh out of the box.

Microsoft plans to spend $5 billion on the internet of things, and it’s more than the usual shell game that big firms play with these sorts of announcements. We discuss its plans on this week’s podcast. We also talk about Qualcomm’s new vision chips for edge devices, what it means that apps are disappearing from the Apple Watch and Kevin’s thoughts on getting Alexa or Google to talk to you.  I review the Nest doorbell before we answer a question on Z-wave and ZigBee for a listener. This week’s guest is Poppy Crum, chief scientist at Dolby Laboratories, who  talks about where hearables are today, what’s changing and some of the cool things we can look forward to.  We also dig into the things that kill your hearing, and how we perceive sound. Listen and learn, y’all.

    Hi Stacey! I love your podcasts, I listen to all of them and This Week in Google in my car commuting to and from work. In the latest podcast you said you dumped the Ikea Tradfri because it didn’t work. Well, now you can use them with Google Assistant, and I’ve tested it. Works great.
    And the pronunciation of “Tradfri”: The “a” is not as in “car” or “party”, but like in “bought”, or “caught”. 🙂
    Best wishes from Oslo, Norway (1,5 hours from Sweeden). 🙂
