For $32 you can back a Kickstarter by Aryzon for an augmented reality app that works with something similar to Google Cardboard for Virtual reality. The current best example of Augmented Reality (AR) is the Microsoft HoloLens which costs $3,000. This system is 100 times cheaper. The Aryzon does not compete directly with current AR …
Solsource Cooker has an innovative design which allows you to capture sunlight to grill, pan fry, slow-cook and boil water. Advance self-healing polymer maximizes the effectiveness of the solar reflector and ensures durability. The Solsource cookware heats up five times faster than traditional charcoal. That means you can get cooking faster. Other solar cookers restrict …
A new technology called “Tactical Augmented Reality,” or TAR, is now helping Soldiers precisely locate their positions, as well as the locations of friends and foes, said Richard Nabors. It even enables them to see in the dark, all with a heads-up display device that looks like night-vision goggles, or NGV, he added. So in …
Researchers from the University of Antwerp and KU Leuven have succeeded in developing a process that purifies air and, at the same time, generates power. The device must only be exposed to light in order to function. “We use a small device with two rooms separated by a membrane,” explains Professor Sammy Verbruggen (UAntwerp/KU Leuven). …
Final Frontier Medical Devices was announced the highest performing team and received $2.5 million for their achievement and Dynamical Biomarkers Group received $1M for 2nd place. Both teams exceeded the competition requirements for user experience, nearly met the challenging audacious benchmarks for diagnosing the 13 disease states, and with their prototypes, have taken humanity one …

Tufts University engineers have invented a chip-sized, high-speed modulator that operates at terahertz (THz) frequencies and at room temperature at low voltages without consuming DC power. The discovery could help fill the “THz gap” that is limiting development of new and more powerful wireless devices that could transmit data at significantly higher speeds than currently …
