According to reports, Samsung will increase the proportion of Exynos chips used in its own models in 2022 to reduce its dependence on Qualcomm chips. Samsung’s use of Exynos chips in its own models will increase by about 2–3 times next year. At the same time, Samsung has set a sales target of 300 million mobile phones next year.

Industry insiders pointed out that Samsung is vigorously supporting Exynos chips. On the one hand, it will increase the proportion of Exynos chips in its own models.

Stethoscopes are among doctors’ most important instruments, yet there have not been any essential improvements to the device since the 1960s. Now, researchers at Aalto University have developed a device that analyzes a broad range of bodily functions and offers physicians a probable diagnosis as well as suggestions for appropriate further examinations. The researchers believe that the new device could eventually replace the stethoscope and enable quicker and more precise diagnoses.

A startup called Vital Signs is taking the device to the market. The researchers are currently testing the device in a clinical pilot trial. The intention is to launch the product to the most important European markets by the end of 2023.

“We have a well-functioning prototype, and the development path is clear,” says Alexis Kouros, the doctor leading the research team at Aalto.
