Researchers at the University of Helsinki, in Finland, have developed a smart jumpsuit that can monitor an infant’s movements and determine if there is a potential neurological issue. The benefit of the suit is that […]
Engineers at the University of Illinois are working on creating at puncture-free tire. To do so, they used computer simulations to calculate the tire’s shear layer’s ability to stretch and twist. The end goal is […]
Researchers at Tohoku University, in Japan, have developed a smart contact lens that is self-moisturising to prevent dry eyes. The battery powered contact lens uses a special mechanism to maintain a layer of fluid between […]
A team of researchers at Penn State University have developed a wearable gas sensor that monitors the wearer’s health and environment. The sensor is an improvement on existing technology through the use of a self-heating […]
A team of researchers at Purdue university have developed a wearable device that will assist in making treatments easier and less expensive for patients experiencing swallowing disorders. The stickers on the sensor are disposable and […]
A team of researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a technique for storing data in everyday 3D printed objects. The technique has been dubbed the “DNA of Things” and uses DNA as the storage medium […]
A new medical device developed by a speech-language researcher at Purdue University is helping patients with Parkinson’s communicate better. The device is named SpeechVive and it uses a reflex to give the user louder and […]
A team of researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a novel flying robot that can repair and inspect skyscrapers. The robots are safer and more efficient than traditional methods of inspection and […]
A team of researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a microscopic implantable device that lures and traps cancer cells for use in biopsies and early cancer detection. The scaffold-like device attracts cancer cells […]
A team of researchers at the University of Washington have developed way to monitor a baby’s breathing and movement through the use of common household smart speakers. The skill, called BreathJunior, involves the smart speaker […]
