Full of good news for Ara Google project. You'll be able to choose the camera of your phone.

This is a moment that the Google project Ara did not talk about him. But so far, it is far from dead. Blog Phonebloks (working with Google as part of this project) even comes to relay valuable information.

The first working prototype will indeed be unveiled this month of December, in the second edition of the conference for developers Ara project. And commercialization of the first models will be held in 2015.

For those who are not yet aware, Ara was originally a project of Motorola. Google But when the manufacturer sold to Lenovo , its R & D stayed with it. And because of this, it is still a Google (one of the most interesting) project. Ara developing a new type of smartphone called modular smartphone: a smartphone consists of a endoskeleton and modules that the user can select and replace as needed (or budget).

In essence it is a smartphone map whose life will be longer because it will be possible to renew the components individually or replace if damaged.

If one believes the publication of Phonebloks, the project is progressing very well even as the Ara project now has in its ranks partners sizes such as Toshiba, Quanta or Foxconn.

And in fact, the modules for the product are already under development. A new shop (in the genus Play Store) for modules is even already underway.

There are a few months, we also were discussing the development of a special version of Android , tailored for smartphones project.

This information is also confirmed by Phonebloks. Linaro is the company that is in charge of creating a version of Android L for modular smartphones. A version that will allow users to replace such modules (eg, camera) hot, that is to say without turning off the device. Only the screen and processor are not hot-swappable.
