Motivation Letter

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullah

Peace be upon us

My name is Muhammad Mujahid Riyanto. I was born in Bekasi, 16th December of 1995. Currently i'm a last-year student of Gunadarma University. I'm studying at Computer Science Faculty and focused on Information System majors. I wasn't come from a Computer Science or Technology background before. I came from an Islamic Boarding School, and i was there since i was in junior high school. Then, i took a Holy Kooran Memorizing focus when i was in Senior High School. But, i put my interest on a computer science world since i was 6, when my dad bought me my first personal computer. Since then, i'm very excited whenever my dad bought me some computer magazine like PC Media or CHIP on the way he went home from his work.

Coming from a totally different environment doesn't bother me a lot to enjoying my new campus life. I just need to be more focused when my lecturer explaining the courses, and asking a lot whenever i don't understand about the study. And i am enjoying my study in Information System majors, because it teaches me how to sharpening my analytical sense.

On the 2nd year of my campus life, i decided to be a programmer of Basic Management Laboratory. I love doing a business, so i think i can take some economics knowledge when i was working as a programmer there. And i was so surprised when i participated on the training course there because they also studying about the stock and economy risk. It gives me a morale boost to be more diligent and focused on studying.

On the way i'm here, i studied a lot about programming on the class and laboratory. But, i put my focused on the website development such as studying about PHP, HTML, CSS, Java, and many more. I can make any creation based on a web development language, that's why i love it. I can make an e-commerce for doing a businessor creating a beautiful web as a media for my writting interest.

Now, i've planned to continue my study at Business and Economics faculty of Istanbul University. I decided this because i want to be an Entrepeneur, and i need a deep knowledge about this because i don't get it much from my bachelor. And continuing my study in Turkey, the most Islamic-population State in Europe would be a best option for me. So i hope that i can be accepted to continue my study there, and become a student of Business and Economics faculty of Istanbul University. Inshaa Allah.

Sincerelery,

Muhammad Mujahid R

Vivo's Apex Concept Phone

Vivo's Apex Concept Phone has a 'Half-Screen' Fingerprint Scanner and a Retracting Selfie Camera

1.1 Background

One of the biggest stories out of this year’s CES, and the recipient of our Best in Show award, was a prototype phone from Vivo that showed off the world’s first in-display fingerprint scanner. This is a method of biometric authentication that could prove to be the best of all worlds — no need for bulky screen bezels, awkward rear-mounted sensors, or complex arrays of face-detection tech. That prototype later shipped in China as the X20 Plus UD, and now Vivo has brought a concept phone to MWC that represents the next evolution of that idea. It's all about figuring out how to get rid of bezels for good.

The concept phone is called Apex, and its headline feature is what Vivo describes as “Half-Screen In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology.” The idea here is that instead of placing your finger on a thumbnail-sized icon to unlock the phone, you’ll be able to do so in a much larger area of the display.

On Apex, the usable scanning area isn’t quite half the screen — it’s more like a third. Or maybe two-fifths. But in any case, the area is big enough to demonstrate the tech's advantage; this way, you can pretty much just pick up the phone and unlock it without really having to think about it. You're also able to require simultaneous input from two different fingerprints for extra security, or for times when you might want to protect data shared by two people.

Vivo isn’t saying whether the scanner is provided by Synaptics, as was the case with the X20 Plus UD. (My guess would be yes.) It works the same way, requiring an OLED screen and the ability to light up the surface of your finger upon contact. It isn’t quite as fast as a conventional fingerprint reader, and I actually found that it works better if you press your thumb flat against the screen rather than only using the tip. The important thing, though, is that it works.

All of this is in service of the war on bezels that almost the entire smartphone industry has declared over the past year or so. Apex, as a device, is one of the most aggressive expressions of that ideal yet, with almost imperceptible bezels around three sides of the phone and a larger — but still skinny — one on the bottom edge. And as such, Vivo has needed to find solutions for the kind of features that’d usually require bezels to function.

The most obvious one of these is the selfie camera. Some phone makers have gotten around this with notches, others by relocating the camera below the screen so that you have to hold the phone upside down. But Apex’s answer is both inventive and kind of cute — the 8-megapixel camera is hidden behind the screen and pops up like a periscope when needed. It takes 0.8 seconds to ready itself and makes a little whirring sound — I thought the mechanism would be flimsy, but it actually feels really solid. If nothing else, it’s a neat way to avoid the notch.

The lack of bezels also means there’s no space for a conventional earpiece speaker. Xiaomi’s Mi Mix addressed this with a piezoelectric design that worked similar to bone conduction technology, but Vivo’s approach here is to vibrate the entire screen itself like a speaker — you can still hear phone calls without holding the device to your head. I’ve heard better quality calls in my time, but it’s totally usable.

Apex is purely a concept, and Vivo says it has no plans to release an actual product in this particular form. But none of it feels particularly implausible. The fingerprint sensor works, the selfie camera works, the earpiece-speaker-thing works, all in a package with an impressive screen-to-body ratio. I wouldn’t be surprised if one, some, or all of these ideas make their way into various phones over the next year or two as manufacturers chase a future free from bezels.

1.2 Theory

Pronouns are used in place of a noun that has already been mentioned or that is already known, often to avoid repeating the noun. For example:
• Kate was tired so she went to bed.
• Michael took the children with him.
• Kieran’s face was close to mine.
• That is a good idea.
• Anything might happen.

PERSONAL PRONOUNS

Personal pronouns are used in place of nouns referring to specific people or things, for example I, me, mine, you, yours, his, her, hers, we, they, or them. They can be divided into various different categories according to their role in a sentence, as follows:
• Subjective pronouns
• Objective pronouns
• Possessive pronouns
• Reflexive pronouns
• Demonstrative pronouns
• Relative Pronoun
• Indefinite Pronouns

SUBJECTIVE PRONOUNS

The personal pronouns I, you, we, he, she, it, and they are known as subjective pronouns because they act as the subjects of verbs:
a) She saw Catherine.
b) We drove Nick home.
c) I waved at her.

OBJECTIVE PRONOUNS

The personal pronouns me, you, us, him, her, it, and them are called objective pronouns because they act as the objects of verbs and prepositions:
a) Catherine saw her.
b) Nick drove us home.
c) She waved at me.
Notice that the personal pronouns you and it stay the same, whether they are being used in the subjective or objective roles.

POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS

The personal pronouns mine, yours, hers, his, ours, its, and theirs are known as possessive pronouns: they refer to something owned by the speaker or by someone or something previously mentioned. For example:
a) That book is mine.
b) John’s eyes met hers.
c) Ours is a family farm.

REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS

Reflexive personal pronouns include myself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves. These are used to refer back to the subject of the clause in which they are used:
a) I fell and hurt myself.
b) Daisy prepared herself for the journey.
c) The children had to look after themselves.

DEMONTRATIVE PRONOUNS

Demonstrative pronoun points out someone or something. The most common demonstrative pronouns are this (plural these) and that (plural those). This generally refers to what is near at hand, that to what is farther away.

a) This is my phone
b) That is your jacket
c) These are my bike
d) Those are your pen

RELATIVE PRONOUNS

Relative pronouns refer to noun antecedents which immediately precede them. They introduce adjective clauses in which they serve as subjects or objects. Reflexive personal pronouns include myself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves.
a) The man who answered the phone was rude
b) The man whom she loves was rude
c) I like the book that gives an inspiration
d) I like the book which you always read

INDEFINITE PRONOUNS

Indefinite pronouns are used when you need to refer to a person or thing that doesn’t need to be specifically identified. Some common indefinite pronouns are one, other, none, some, anybody, everybody, everyone and no one.

1.3 Analysis

Some analysis from the background problem, adjusted by pronoun with sentences. I will write it form paragraph to paragraph, so we can learn form the sentences below and understand what kind of pronoun that was used by.

On the first paragraph, we can found some Possessive Pronouns and a Demonstrative Pronouns as you can see on the lines below :

a.) and the recipient of our Best in Show award
b.) was a prototype phone from Vivo that showed off the world’s first in-display fingerprint scanner

Then, on the second paragraph we can noted some Subjective Pronouns, like :
a.) and its headline feature is what Vivo describes as “Half-Screen In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology

For the third paragraph, you will see a Subjective and Objective Pronoun located at the same line and sentence :
a.) you can pretty much just pick up the phone and unlock it without really having to think about it

Fourth paragraph, and we will found some bored Subjective Pronouns like this :
a.) It works the same way
b.) The important thing, though, is that it works

In the Fifth paragraph, so was Subjective Pronouns-‘ed’ as well.
a.) Apex, as a device, is one of the most aggressive expressions

We will find the Reflexive Pronouns on the ‘cropped-sentence’ below :
a.) to ready itself and makes a little whirring sound

Seventh paragraph, provided the Demontrative Pronouns and Reflexive Pronoun as you can see below :
a.) addressed this with a piezoelectric design that worked similiar
b.) to vibrate the entire screen itself like a speaker

And for the last paragraph, we can see the Subjective and Demontrative Pronoun at :
a.) it has no plans to release an actual product in this particular form

1.4 Conclusion

The Vivo ‘Apex’ new technology will smash the smartphone industry very hard. From the bezelless feature that provides a ‘true’ bezelless —it isn’t just a side-free bezel like Samsung and LG do— to a on-screen fingerprint sensor and front camera. The ‘big brands’ will be pushed very hard to dot he same for their flagships, especially because their high cost product and big name pressure they had. Let’s wait and see, how far will the ‘Apex’ impacted the industry and the world technology later.
