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 -
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 -
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 Develop New Treatment for Fibrillation
Researchers have developed a method to quiet atrial fibrillations without having to perform open-heart surgery. In a technique called Mini-Maze, doctors insert a bi-polar-radio-frequency clamp on the ... > 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
