Access Rights (continued)

Public Access

The Public Access function sets access for everybody who is not on your collaborator list (i.e., the general public). Options include No Access, Author and Viewer. (See screen shot, below.) Change the Public Access setting by selecting a different access level and then clicking the Update button.

No Access

By default, Public Access is set to No Access, which is an ap- propriate setting for a world that is under development and not yet ready for public viewing. Just like a web site under de- velopment, you want to leave your Nokia Point & Find world hidden until it’s ready for the public. This setting allows only authorized collaborators access to your world.

Viewer

The Viewer option means that your world is “live” and avail- able for public viewing, so all Nokia Point & Find users can use the Add World function on the Nokia Point & Find client to enter and explore your world.

Author

The Author option allows people to both see your world and also contribute to the world. This means that any user of your world can tag objects, which are then uploaded to your world’s database and available for sorting, editing, and delet- ing, using the Management Portal’s Manage Tags tools.

Public Access options

In the Access Rights panel

Set Public Access to “Author” for user generated content

For example, Nokia City World is a “factory world” that has the access level set to Author, so end users can contribute to the world. This allows users to tag city objects of their choice with labels of their choice, such as “Best Pizza Restaurant,” or “Jake’s Cool Cafe,” etc.

Nseries specifications

The Nokia Nseries, launched in the mid-2000s, represented a groundbreaking line of multimedia smartphones that combined innovative technology with sleek designs. This series reinvigorated Nokia’s reputation as a leader in mobile phone technology while catering to a new generation of tech-savvy users looking for powerful devices that could handle various multimedia tasks.

One of the standout features of the Nokia Nseries was its commitment to high-quality multimedia capabilities. Equipped with advanced cameras, many models boasted Carl Zeiss optics, allowing users to capture stunning photos and videos. The Nokia N95, for instance, featured a 5-megapixel camera that set a new standard for mobile photography. In addition, the Nseries often included dedicated multimedia buttons, making it easier for users to access their favorite media apps and functions.

Displaying vibrant colors and impressive clarity, the Nseries devices typically used high-resolution screens. These displays not only enhanced the multimedia experience but also made browsing the internet, reading e-books, and enjoying games visually engaging. The inclusion of features like a built-in music player supported a rich audio experience, with many models offering support for various audio formats.

Connectivity was another hallmark of the Nseries. Users could expect 3G capabilities, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth support, allowing seamless sharing and downloading of content. The devices also usually incorporated GPS functionality, a feature that became increasingly important for navigation and location-based services, marking the Nseries as a pioneer in integrating location technology into mobile phones.

Software-wise, Nokia Nseries phones ran on the Symbian operating system. While not as user-friendly as later platforms, Symbian provided users with a level of customization and extensive app availability through the Nokia Software Market. This allowed users to personalize their devices according to their preferences, maximizing their utility.

The Nokia Nseries encapsulated a perfect balance of form and function. The sleek designs and premium materials reflected Nokia’s commitment to quality, while the powerful features emphasized the trend towards multimedia smartphones. By combining photography, video, music, and internet capabilities, the Nseries paved the way for today's smartphones, influencing how devices are designed and utilized in modern life. Though the series has been discontinued, its legacy remains visible in the evolution of mobile technology.
