Energy Scientists Propose Color-Coding Standard for PC Sleep Mode
Different computers use different indicator lights to signal that they are in energy-saving, or "sleep" mode. Users are often unsure if their PC is truly saving energy, rather than just turning its ... > more -
CT Scans of Legs May Help Prevent Recurring Pulmonary Embolisms
Pulmonary embolisms kill 60,000 people every year. Often, the clots form in the legs, break free and travel to the lungs, where they can cause sudden death. CAT scans can identify these clots in the ... > more -
Doctors and Engineers Develop Virtual-Reality Recovery for Stroke Victims
Stroke survivors can often recover the use of a paralyzed arm, but it's a slow process. This could become easier with a new system made of a robotic arm and virtual reality software. The robot ... > more -
Engineers Develop Non-Acoustical Sensor to Improve Battlefield Communication
A new device will soon help troops communicate on a noisy battlefield. The Tuned Electromagnetic Resonance Collar -- or TERC sensor -- detects changes in the electrical field around the neck produced ... > more -
Cardiologists Treat Leg Pain with Balloon Angioplasty
Doctors now use cold angioplasty to restore blood flow to the legs and relieve chronic leg pain. The procedure, where cold nitrous oxide inflates a balloon inside arteries to unclog them, is similar ... > more -
Chemist's Glue Borrows Unique Amino Acid from Mollusk
Chemists combined an exotic form of an amino acid -- used by mussels to stick to rocks -- with soy flour to make a new, high-strength adhesive. The new glue helps in manufacturing natural-looking ... > more -
Meteorologists Use Weather Knowledge to Predict Path of Toxic Spills
Homeland security officials are tapping researchers' capability to predict the paths of toxic waste spills and hazardous airborne particles. Using computer science and mathematics, along with ... > more -
Cardiothoracic Surgeons Find Wider Use for Heart Device
First used for patients awaiting heart transplants, left-ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are now enhancing the quality of life of patients with heart failure. Doctors place the device in the ... > more -
Materials Engineers Turn to Ferocious Fish for Nonstick Ship Coating
Researchers are using shark skin as a model for creating new coatings that prevent adhesion of algae and barnacles to boats. The new coating is modeled after sharks' placoid scales, which have a ... > more -
Engineers Develop Technique for Recognizing Gun Owner's Grip
Researchers have designed, built and tested a handgun that will fire only when its component circuitry and software recognize the grip of an authorized shooter. The technology measures not only the ... > more -
Acousticians Improve Sound Quality of Cochlear Implants
In a new study, 34 normal-hearing and 18 cochlear-implant subjects were tested on three speech-perception tasks known to be notoriously difficult for cochlear-implant users: speech recognition with a ... > more
