Top 5 Huawei technologies quietly announced at HDC 2019

The Huawei Developers Conference (HDC) held between August 9th to 11th. At the conference, the company unveiled a couple of devices and technologies including the Honor Smart Screen and its new Harmony OS. While the likes of Harmony OS and Honor Smart Screen took the center stage, the company also released some technologies quietly. Here are the top 5 Huawei technologies quietly announced at HDC 2019.

• Millimeter-wave technology

The technology only allows remote control with gestures. In addition, it also measures distance and tests the user's heartbeat and breath capacity.

• Low-latency projection screen

This technology can reduce the projection delay to 60ms. This is quite different from the Miracast technology which is currently on smart screens.

• High-precision local positioning technology

The high-precision local positioning does not need adjustments. With the aid of the surrounding wireless signals, the device's own frequency system and algorithm are good for positioning. Furthermore, the positioning accuracy is within 1-3 meters.

• LCD display with on-screen fingerprint scanner

At the inception of the on-screen fingerprint technology, it was only possible with OLED displays. However, over the past few months, we have seen a couple of LCD displays with this technology. At HDC 2019, Huawei showcased an LCD display with an on-screen fingerprint sensor.

• 5G millimeter wave communication

Huawei's upcoming Mate X highlight is its foldable display and 5G network. The 5G network uses Huawei's Balon 5000 baseband. In addition, the maximum speed of the 5G millimeter wave communication is 6.5Gbps.

These top 5 Huawei technologies are simply the Editors pick and it does not reflect the choice of individuals or the company. In addition, this list does not consider technologies that took the center stage at the conference such as Honor Smart Screen and Harmony OS.
