50bn devices ‘to be connected’ to internet by 2020

Intel hailed a “once-in-a- decade moment” as it showed off the sixth generation of its signature Core processors, as well as a next-generation selfie stick.

At a press conference ahead of the IFA technology show in Berlin, Intel debuted its new line of Core processors, including the i3, i5 and i7 that run in most PCs and laptops. These will offer more power to users than ever, the computing giant claims.

To prove it, a selfie stick composed of 6 GoPro cameras that offered a 360-degree view in ultra-high definition 4K was shown on stage being powered by one of the new processors.
