Polar Vantage V multisport watch
Posted in: Today's Chili
Owning a watch is something that most of us do, but how many of us see the watch as more than just a timekeeping device? For folks who lead an extremely active life, and would like to measure their physical activity and performance, the name of Polar certainly comes to mind. This time around, the Polar Vantage V will gather more than four decades of expertise in the fitness arena by Polar in order to be the most advanced multisport watch to date. All of the cutting edge sport technologies are crammed into a sleek, durable design, delivering an extremely effective coach and athlete interaction.
For starters, the Polar Vantage V will boast of Polar’s Precision Prime wrist-based fusion heart rate technology in addition to the new wrist-based running power. Specially developed for athletes and coaches who want nothing more than the highest level of sport performance, the Polar Vantage V will arrive with exclusive Smart Coaching features including Training Load Pro and Recovery Pro. Not only that, it has a new Polar Coach interface that will make life easier than ever before.
Needless to say, the Vantage V is also waterproof so that it can keep up with the paces you put it though, while sporting GPS capability in addition to an always-on color touch screen display. This will offer the most accurate data across a more than 130 sport profiles, while extreme fitness buffs can enjoy an ultra-long battery life with up to 40 hours of non-stop training.
As for the aforementioned Polar Precision Prime, it offers a new level of heart rate accuracy and reliability. This proprietary wrist-based heart rate technology will feature unique sensor fusion technology and a customized smart algorithm in order to deliver a new standard for wrist-based accuracy. The Polar Vantage V is now available for pre-order with an asking price of $499.90, arriving in shades of black, white, and orange as well as medium and large sizes.

A lot of us tend to keep drinks around our computers, such as a bottle of water, a cup of tea or coffee, a can of soft drink, a glass of wine, and so on. There’s nothing wrong with that, but there is a danger in accidentally knocking our drinks over onto our keyboards, and given that most keyboards aren’t designed to be waterproof, it can damage them.
For the most part a lot of keyboards are cheap and can be easily replaced, but that isn’t true for Apple’s Mac keyboards which can be rather expensive if you want to replace them. However according to a patent filing, it seems that Apple is looking into the idea of possibly making their keyboards more water-resistant.
According to Apple’s description, “Keyboard device includes a shell having a set of aperture formed into a top surface. A group of keys are disposed in the set of apertures. A platform is disposed under the group of keys and substantially fills an interior of the shell. The platform has a cavity formed in a lower surface of the platform. A circuit board, which is operable to control the keyboard is disposed within the cavity. The platform is configured to prevent ingress of liquid and debris that may enter the set of apertures.”
Now there’s no guarantee that Apple will ever make this patent a reality, not to mention its design looks rather bulky which seems to go against Apple’s current aesthetics which is all about slim and sleek looks, but who knows, maybe Apple could come up with an alternative solution in the future.

For the most part, Chrome 69 is a significant release, bringing in a new Material Design, a smarter search bar, and more. But thanks to a rather unannounced feature, it has turned into quite a mess. Contrary to its stated goal, the new sign-in consistency only brought more confusion and the usual monopolistic accusations. Now Google is telling Chrome users … Continue reading
