However, Qualcomm has a slightly  different approach. The chip designer has developed AllJoyn, which it  tentatively calls - the Internet of Everything. Whether you own Samsung  gadgets or Apple gizmos each can be connected and controlled by your  mobile using Qualcomm's open source networking platform. The network  even extends to everyday household items. Fancy brewing a fresh cup of  coffee while still lying in bed? That's possible with Qualcomm's  technology. <img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545838-DSC_0295.600x400.JPG?v=1363096582" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />02.Use It in the Shower                                Fujitsu and Sony both showcased new devices  at the World Mobile Congress that are waterproof. The Sony Xperia Z and  the Fujitsu Stylistic S01 brag that they can be held under fresh water  for up to 30 minutes. While it might not be best to push your luck by  using it in the bathroom it may offer peace of mind for some consumers.  the Stylistic S01, running Google's Android software, will be available  through Orange in France in June 2013 with a U.K. launch expected soon  afterwards. Sony's Xperia, another Android device, is launching globally  in the first-quarter of 2013 and retails at around $800.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545818-3D%20Printer.600x400.jpg?v=1363096084" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />03.Print Your Own Phone Cases                                3D printing firm MakerBot teamed up with  Nokia at the Mobile World Congress to show off how the technology could  customize phone cases. This Lumia 820 was receiving a facelift with  attendees being given the opportunity to print their own casing. One  MakerBot representative told CNBC that while mobile manufacturers will  still be the primary designer of casings, the idea is to give people a  glimpse into the future with the new technology. Nokia made the design  files for the phone cases publicly available back in January.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545923-FordEcosport.600x400.jpg?v=1363097341" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />04.Have More Fun Driving                                Listening to the latest sounds in your car  just got easier. Ford paraded its new EcoSport model at the World Mobile  Congress. It offers a variety of functions, including streaming music  via bluetooth to each mobile device in the vehicle and voice activation  for picking that perfect song at the perfect time. And there's more:  General Motors, Audi and BMW are all set to roll out 4G entertainment  systems with their new vehicles meaning streaming your favorite song or  video becomes that much easier and quicker.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545845-DSC_0327.600x400.JPG?v=1363096828" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />05.Feel Like You're in the Cinema                                The boffins at Dolby Sound have updated the  company's latest audio technology for mobile devices, making it possible  for users to "enjoy the kind of full-body surround sound experience  that you know from the cinema". The ZTE Grand Memo is the first  smartphone to feature the next-generation processing engine and Amazon's  Kindle Fire HD tablet also takes advantage of the feature. The  technology is set to be rolled out across more phones in the future. The  Grand Memo, rumored to be priced near the $600 mark, will initially  launch in China, followed by a Europe release, but a U.S. launch is  still undecided.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545829-DSC_0292.600x400.JPG?v=1363096342" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />06.Help Us in Our Old Age                                While some companies are targeting the high  end smartphone segment and others are focusing on emerging markets,  Japan's Fujitsu has tried to bridge the generation gap. The Stylistic  S01 is openly targeted at the generation of over 50s. The screen is  pressure sensitive with large icons and is also water resistant for up  to 30 minutes. If you fall, the phone has a panic alarm, which when  pressed, automatically dials the numbers on an emergency list until it  successfully achieves communication.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545805-DoCoMo.600x400.jpg?v=1363095751" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />07.Speak in Japanese                                NTT Docomo won the best network product  award at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona for an Android app that  offers real-time translations, allowing Japanese people to speak to  foreigners using their native tongue. Other languages such as Mandarin  and Korean are set to follow but the technology will only work with NTT  Docomo phones. The app uses cloud computing to leverage the relatively  small processing power of a mobile phone, so voice recognition software  isn't contained on the device itself. Lexifone and Vocre have developed  other products, with Alcatel-Lucent and Microsoft believed to be working  on similar solutions. <img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/13/100549212-ecooltra.600x400.jpg?v=1363180306" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />08.Hitch a Ride...Anytime                                A bike hire scheme with a difference. At the  Mobile World Congress, attendees could try out the new Cooltra  Connected Electric Scooter. The idea is that embedded mobile technology  will let customers know in real time where and when the scooters are  available in and around Barcelona and other major Spanish cities. The  firm already runs a hire scheme around the country but wants all bikes  to become "connected", even making them NFC-enabled so one swipe of a  mobile will unlock your next ride.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/13/100549337-Tethercell2%20%282%29.600x400.jpg?v=1363183745" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />09.Keep the Kids Quiet                              Tetherboard is developing a battery controller  which enables you to connect to and control AA-battery-operated devices  from your iOS or Android device. Users will be alerted when battery  power is low and can set device schedules and timers. Too much noise  from your kids toys? Well you can turn them off remotely! Still in its  prototype stage the makers of Tethercell are still on the lookout for  crowdfunding donations. The app has been tested with both Android and  iOS devices and testing has shown it can communicate with an iPhone 4s  up to 100 feet away in an open field.<img src="http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/img/editorial/2013/03/12/100545795-mhealth2.600x400.jpg?v=1363095468" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />10.Keep Your Doctor Informed                              A growing area for mobile technology has been  in healthcare. Doctors are currently able to monitor the health of  patients remotely. Heart monitors or other implanted devices can send  data via smart phones to health professionals. A new $10 million  Qualcomm competition aims to reward those that can develop a tool that  could make reliable health diagnoses available directly to people in  their homes, so watch this space!</blockquote>
