Swap Project Ara’s Modules Without Powering Down

Earlier, we have already talked about Project Ara, but we came to know now that the battery of this device will be hot swappable. It means, users are allowed to swap almost dead battery for a complete one without turning the device off or losing their running things.


However, there is one more new thing that is surfacing on the web about Project Ara, and that is the fact that almost all the modules, which are used in a Project Ara device are hot swappable.

According to the director of Project Ara Paul Eremenko, “Project Ara has recently noted that users of it will be able to swap the phone modules around without losing what they are working with only two exceptions.”

We all know that it is not possible to hot swappable the monitor and CPU in the middle of a call or text message. The hot swappable modules’ idea is that you would change modules as like the camera to better suit what you are doing right then.

Moreover, Google has provided more information on Project Ara as this all new modular mobile phone concept is scheduled for early 2015, and it will be sold through a new online store and Google Play once it launched in the market.

According to the Ara developer blog “Phoneblocks”, the Project Ara devices are expected to run a modified version of its upcoming Android L operating system that has been developed by the company in conjunction with developers of the Linaro Linux-based software.

For an example – you can swap a wide-angle camera while taking a picture of people or use a camera with more resolution for landscape shots. Another detail that we came to know is that Google is going to have an online store to sell its different modules or Project Ara.

Initially, Google started working on this project with its former subsidiary Motorola Mobility on Project Ara, but gradually, there are several other partners have also joined like Foxconn, chipmaker Rockchip and hardware companies Toshiba and Quanta. However, the company has planned a second conference for December month as the company will reveal more information on this project.
