In this guest post, Joe Burton, CTO at Plantronics, lays out a vision for intelligent wearable devices and sensors that will redefine relevance and greatly simplify and automate the lives of users.
Scientists create first electricity generator powered by viruses
Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have developed a method for generating power using harmless viruses that convert mechanical energy into electricity.
'TeleHuman' taps Kinect for 3D holographic videoconferencing
A Queen’s University researcher has created a Star Trek-like human-scale 3-D videoconferencing pod that allows people in different locations to video conference as if they were standing in front of each other.
Sensing systems for robots could help blind navigate
Parisian researchers have developed a 3D navigation system for the blind using a pair of glasses equipped with cameras and sensors like those used in robot exploration.
Netgear ushers in Gigabit Wi-Fi with first 802.11ac router
The networking company looks poised to be the first with a next-generation router on the market with speeds up to three times faster than 802.11n.
World's largest digital camera one step closer to reality
Construction on the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), a 3.2 billion-pixel camera that will capture the widest, fastest and deepest view of the night sky ever observed, could begin in 2014.
New technique boosts efficiency of multi-hop wireless networks
Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a more efficient data transmission approach that can boost the amount of data the networks can transmit by 20 to 80 percent.
Nanosponges soak up more than 100x their weight in oil
Rice, Penn State researchers laced carbon nanotubes with boron to create reusable oil-soaking sponges that show promise for environmental cleanup, among many uses.
Programmable 'smart sand' can assume any shape
MIT researchers are developing small magnetic cubes that can communicate with each other to auto-duplicate objects in a “sand box” using a subtractive production algorithm.
Cost of Li-ion batteries in 2020 not low enough for mass adoption of EVs: report
Despite technology improvements and growing industry scale, Li-ion electric vehicle batteries will cost $397/kWh in 2020, falling short of the $150/kWh target needed to reach the mass market, say experts.
