Engineers Create New Helmet to Help Troops Hear Better on Battlefield
Wearing a helmet can make it hard to figure which direction sounds -- such as gunfire -- is coming from. Soldiers in Iraq are using a new helmet, called the Advanced Combat Helmet, which is padded ... > more -
Mechanical Engineers Have New Bug-Inspired Robot That Senses Its Way With Flexible Antenna
Researchers have developed a flexible, sensor-laden artificial antenna to help a robotic "bug" move and navigate just like the common cockroach. The bug can curry along walls, turn corners, avoid ... > more -
Engineers Make Cheaper, Brighter Displays Out Of Organic Materials
Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) are plastic-based materials that are able to emit light. Engineers are beginning to make displays out of OLEDs by spraying the materials on a surface, the way an ... > more -
Applied Physicist Invents Training Golf Club with Audio Feedback
A new golf club uses motion-detection sensors and wireless technology to coach players through the use of sound. A golfer can "hear" the speed of the swing in wireless headphones, and adjust swings ... > more -
1,400 Students Showcase Inventions at Science and Engineering Fair
Some of the nation's most talented students converged on Phoenix on May 8-13 to show their inventions at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, the world's largest competition of 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 -
Engineers Double Life of Alkaline Batteries
By packing batteries with twice as much energy-storing material, engineers have developed a new generation of alkaline batteries that can double the battery life of your MP3 players, digital cameras, ... > 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 -
Atmospheric Chemists Show Morning Fog Captures Particulate Matter
While it hassles commuters, morning mist removes a lot of airborne particles which are hazardous for people with respiratory health problems. The water droplets inside morning fog are of just the ... > more
