Radiologists Use CT Scan To Diagnose Ancient Causes Of Death
Medical physicists used computed tomography to compose a picture of the body within an ancient mummy. The scan provided more detail in both bone and tissue than a conventional x-ray. The three ... > more -
Engineers Develop Technology To See Through Walls
Computer scientists and engineers have developed a new technology for the purpose of seeing through walls. The new technological gadget boasts visual penetration through wood, plaster, brick and ... > more -
Engineer Designs More Efficient, Quieter Bus
An engineer has designed an electric bus that runs on battery power. Putting motors in each wheel makes a transmission and driveshaft unnecessary, and allows the bus to ride closer to the ground for ... > more -
Materials Scientists Develop Light-up Tents
Material research scientists have made electroluminescent technology elastic and supple enough to be knitted and incorporated into canvas tent panels. An electric field is produced across the ... > more -
Astronomers Need Your Help To Find Planets Outside Our Solar System
A new distributed computing program analyzes data to characterize new planetary systems by computing the light reflected from nearby extrasolar planets and the wobble the planets cause in their stars ... > more -

Mechanical Engineers Create High-tech Solar Panels
Photovoltaic panels have a new design: concentric circles that focus the sun's rays on miniaturized modules. Having the panels automatically sense sunlight and turn towards it also makes these ... > more -
Electrical Engineers Create Money-saving Light System
A photosensor paired with a dimming ballast controls fluorescent lighting and adjusts lights all over the user's home. A microcontroller automatically calibrates amounts of daylight and adjusts ... > more -
Doppler-based Stethoscope Ignores Outside Sounds
A new ultrasound stethoscope ignores outside noise, allowing medics to hear life-saving sounds inside the body. Developed by electrical engineers, the device exploits the Doppler effect as it sends ... > more -
Chemists Create Self-assembling Conductive Rubber
Polymer chemists have created a flexible, indestructible material, called metal rubber, that can be heated, frozen, washed or doused with jet fuel, and still retain its electricity-conducting ... > more
