rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 E Tomb The E-Tomb makes complete sense for people who spend endless hours tweeting, Facebook-ing and blogging. It's the kinda tombstone with Bluetooth and solar panels and stores your logs; friends and family can come over and access your virtual life from it and keep each other updated with anecdotes about you by uploading their stories to the tombstone. Sounds a bit spooky right now, but since RFID Tags for this are already popular, the next best thing has to be updates from the gave, and the world beyond! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 PharmaJet introduces needle-free injectors How many times have you seen a friend or a relative with diabetes inject themselves with insulin subcutaneously? Overtime they may say they get use to the pain but that's only because they have no other choice but to bare it. What if there was a safer, needle-free way? PharmaJet offers just that. And it seems like PharmaJet has already been approved for use in the US for sometime. How it works is that the injector uses a new form of technology in which it delivers liquid medications at high speed, creating a "liquid jet" that penetrates the skin and delivers the medicine through the skin in less than 1/3 of a second. Doing exactly what patients today already do but without the needle. The great thing about PharmaJet is that it works as subcutaneous injector as well as intramuscular.

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 Retinal Implant Successful in Bringing Vision to Blind Retina Implant AG out of Reutlingen, Germany is reporting the publication of a clinical study evaluating the company's subretinal electronic chips in totally blind volunteers. The device contains 1500 active microphotodiodes, each with "its own amplifier and local stimulation electrode." These then control the generation of electrical impulses going up to the brain representing a 38 × 40 pixel grid. Three people in this study, blind due to hereditary retinal degeneration, were implanted with the device that's 3mm in diameter. All three reported varying levels of vision and one of the subjects was even able to discern common objects like knives and forks laying on the table. Core of the implant is a microchip of approximately 3 mm in diameter and 50 μm thickness, with an array of roughly 1500 pixel fields. Each pixel measures 70 x 70 μm. Photocells, an amplifying circuit, and a stimulation electrode are attached to each pixel field. The photocells absorb the light entering the eye, transforming it into electrical signals. A tiny power line is providing energy from an external source behind the ear. Sixteen additional electrodes are placed for testing purposes at the tip of the implant. The strength of the light signals controls the amount of current released by each electrode, stimulating the neighboring intact retinal nerve cells electrically. The nerve impulses generated by the retinal cells are processed in the remaining neuronal network of the retina and transmitted via the optic nerve to the visual cortex, creating visual sensations. This is why an unimpaired, regularly functioning optic nerve is an unconditional requirement for the implants' operational reliability in any approach of a retinal implant. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted November 19, 2010 Thank you everyone for kind words of encouragement Another One. Looxcie, A Futuristic Wearable Bluetooth Camcorder Just when you thought you have seen it all — and recorded it — Looxcie, a camera worn over the ear, ups the ante. Invented by a parent who found himself fumbling with video cameras while trying to record children's parties, Looxcie can capture everything the user sees for up to five hours, hands-free. And with the press of a button, a clip of the last 30 seconds of film can be sent to a Facebook page, YouTube or a preset e-mail address via a companion app on your android phone from where you can edit and upload it— making Looxcie the perfect device for the age of audio-video oversharing. Android app also acts as a live viewfinder for the camera. A reversible earplug fits in either ear-hole. If you only use it as a Bluetooth headset, it will last for 10 hours, and if a call comes in while you are filming, the video recording is muted. The beauty of this device is that you can engage yourself into the experience instead of the task of simply recording it as your hands are free. It will record everything which you are experiencing at the moment with your eye. Manufacturer Website http://www.looxcie.com/ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted November 20, 2010 Transition-Plane in the Sky, Car On The Road Go from home to airport, in the sky, then again on the Road The Terrafugia Transition could redefine the convertible. And door-to-door travel. Designed by a team of MIT aeronautics engineers, including Terrafugia co-founders Carl Dietrich and his wife Anna Mracek Dietrich, the Transition is a street-legal, airworthy, airbag-and-parachute-equipped flying car that at $200,000 is priced less than a Lamborghini. The first models will be delivered next year. True, with its wings retracted like football goalposts, the Transition, whose 100-horsepower engine gets it 35 m.p.g. on terra firma, isn't going to be a match for an Italian sports car. But extend the vehicle's gull wings — and you are requested to do this at an airport — and the rear-propeller-powered Transition can fly two passengers about 500 miles at a cruising speed of 105 m.p.h. After you land, you will not be heading to the rental counter Manufacturer Site http://www.terrafugia.com/index.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted December 11, 2010 Eye Writer How do you communicate when your brain is active but your body isn't? The EyeWriter, a collaboration from the Ebeling Group, the Not Impossible Foundation and Graffiti Research Lab, uses low-cost eye-tracking glasses and open-source software to allow people suffering from any kind of neuromuscular syndrome to write and draw by tracking their eye movement and translating it to lines on a screen. The device was created for Tony "Tempt" Quan, an L.A.-based graffiti artist who was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease in 2003. After trying the EyeWriter — the first time he'd drawn anything since he was fully paralyzed — Quan said, "It feels like taking a breath after being held underwater for five minutes." The device is an eye-tracking camera that mounts to a pair of glasses, which interprets eye movement as cursor or pen movement. but it's not just that it's eye-tracking software, which has existed for years. It's that it's a) open source, designed to be an inexpensive DIY task, and c) implemented with software that allows paralyzed people to again re-engage with life and helps using Computers for Drawing, Text-Input and Communicating. Beauty of the device is that it is assembled from commonly available hardware at a Cost of Approx. $ 50. This is what i call real meaningful use of Technology. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
