Electrical Engineers Show Wireless Can Make a Difference in Emergencies
For the first time, a wireless communication system is being tested in simulated emergencies. Dispatchers can locate responders with GPS and give them directions by text message. The system relies on ... > more -
Musician Puts Love for Computer Science into Minimalist Synthesizer
Recycled CD cases become bare-bones music players with the addition of a simple microchip and handful of other components, in a creation by a New York University graduate student in interactive ... > more -
Neurologists, Imaging Scientists Use Medical Physics to Spot Disease in Blood Vessels
A new brain-imaging method allows physicians to diagnose Alzheimer's before its onset. A radioactive dye is injected in the blood and travels to the brain, where it attaches to plaque deposits of ... > more -
Acoustical Engineers Reduce Hospital Noise with Fiberglass Panels
New, hi-tech panels can help bring down unhealthy noise levels in hospitals. The panels are made of fiberglass and coated with anti-bacterial fabric. If placed on walls and ceilings they can absorb ... > more -
Electrical Engineers Develop Pocket-Size Fingerprint Recognition
A new pocket device reads fingerprints and validates them by wireless access to a computer. With this biometrics system, users can avoid using passwords, and get simpler and more secure access to ... > more -
Physicists, Engineers Capture Lightning with Tethered Rockets
To study lightning, scientists use rockets connected to the ground by wires. They fire the rockets into clouds, triggering electrical discharges, and storing their power. They have found that ... > more -
Interventional Neuroradiologists Treat Brain Strokes with New Kind of Stent
A new "wingspan" stent helps restore blood flow for patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease, or ICAD. Surgeons insert the stent up the leg arteries, guide it to the brain, then let its ... > more -
Seismologists Use Ultrasounds to Assess Quakes Faster
Using ultrasound imaging, seismologists can now determine the epicenter and magnitude of an earthquake quake within 10 to 20 minutes, precisely imaging which fault ruptured and where the rupture ... > more -
Space Physicists and Atmospheric Scientists Can Now Predict Disruptions Caused by the Sun's Coronal Mass Ejections
Solar activity can wreak havoc in communications systems -- particularly during coronal mass ejections, when plumes of electrically charged particles hit earth's atmosphere. Scientists can now track ... > more -
Electrical Engineers Envision Broad, Transformational Use of Flash Memory
With their high capability and no moving parts, flash drives safely store data in camera memory sticks and in some MP3 players, and they also hide in gadgets such as cell phones. Experts say once ... > more
