Scientists Develop E-ink To Replace Books, Newspapers
Scientists at Sony have developed an electronic version of ink, currently used in the E-Reader, that enables thousands of books to be carried around in one portable, energy-efficient case. Ink ... > more -
Cochlear Implants Work Better If Done On Both Ears
Unlike other acoustical devices such as hearing aids, which just amplify sounds, cochlear implants mimic what happens inside the ear, changing sound waves into electrical signals sent to the brain. ... > more -
Human Factors Engineers Help Faa Develop User-friendly Markings
The Federal Aviation Administration's new Enhanced Surface Markings Project, developed with the help of human factors engineers, promises to reduce the number of collisions on airport runways. The ... > more -
Mathematical Physics Explains How Icicles Grow
When droplets of melted snow drip down an icicle, they release small amounts of heat as they freeze. Heated air travels upwards and helps slow down the growth of the icicle's top, while the tip is ... > more -
An Interactive, 3D Voyage into Human Anatomy
Anatomists and biochemists have created a detailed virtual view of vital organs in the human body, down to the level of tissues and cells. The software recreates the visualization from a combination ... > more -
Mechanical Engineers' Device Helps Electricity Conservation
Smart meters are small computers that provide real-time information on how much electricity is being used by each customer and when, and can relay information back to the head office over the very ... > more -
MRI Can Replace CT Scans, Reducing Cancer Risks
New studies by radiologists have shown that MRI can be just as accurate as CT scans at helping radiologists diagnose pathologies such as cancer, cysts and kidney stones -- while carrying less risk, ... > more -
3D Imaging System Helps Athletes Recover from Injuries
A new computer-based system gives physical therapists real-time, objective measures of the motion of each joint in the patient's body. The system uses magnetic trackers to read the positions of ... > more -
EMG Helps Physiatrists Find Causes of Pain
Electromyography (EMG) detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells, and can test nerve function. EMG can help physiatrists pin down the cause of back pain in cases such as spinal ... > more -
Automotive Engineers Team Up to Improve Energy-Saving Technology
Mechanical and electrical engineers at DaimlerChrysler, General Motors and BMW have jointly developed a hybrid-vehicle technology that shuts the internal combustion engine off when the vehicle stops. ... > more
