The Skytech Minute

The Oculus Quest is one of the best self-contained virtual reality headsets on the market. Put this comfortable headset on your face and the built-in stereo screens and stereo speakers will whisk you off to virtual worlds. Or you can play exciting games like Beat Saber, work up a sweat doing virtual exercises, or simply pretend that you're fishing somewhere off a beautiful beach. While virtual reality has been around for over 20 years the Oculus Quest may be the first device that gives you the freedom to experience it anywhere, and share that excitement with others. 

A pulse oximeter is a small, non-invasive device, like this one, that measures the percentage of oxygen (or O2) in the blood affixed to the hemoglobin cells within the circulatory system. SPO2 is a reading delivered by the pulse oximeter to indicate how efficiently blood is transporting oxygen throughout the body. SPO2 translates to S for Saturation, P for Pulse (most pulse oximeters also measure your heart rate) and O2 means oxygen. 

Not a bad device to have in your home to determine if you or someone you love is breathing well, as respiratory illnesses like COVID-19 start to impact our ability to process oxygen, and is one of the reasons why patients in duress are often first treated with pure oxygen.

Every want to share your thoughts with the world?  Well, that's just what podcasting can let you do in just a few minutes. Grab a good microphone, or just use the one in your phone or computer, and start talking.  Using a service like Anchor by Spotify, simply upload your recording, maybe attach some free background music, and distribute your ideas to the world literally in seconds. I decided to give podcasting a try because it's fast, authentic, and anyone can do it.

Oh, yeah, why is it called podcasting?  Well, if you are old enough to remember when the first Apple iPod came on the scene, suddenly people were carrying all their music in their pocket, and using simple tools it was possible to create your own broadcast and distribute that directly to people's iPods.  Hence iPod + Broadcasting = Podcasting

Spare a minute to learn about Amazon Prime Day. Oh, and while Amazon always has great deals on their own products like Echo, Kindle and Alexa, this year they are also highlighting emerging brands.

Hi, I'm Steve from Skytech.io and these one minute podcasts help you stay informed about the latest trends in technology. 

I have loved technology since I was four years old. My whole life people told me that my head is in the sky, always dreaming up new ideas - some that became reality. Since it feels like I live a few years in the future, I started Skytech to describe new discoveries and simplify the technologies that can improve your life.
