1Just when you thought display technology could hardly get any better, along come quantum dots, making screens more colorful while consuming less power. This is not just some pie-in-the-sky dream of sc...
1Photo: Cesar A. GonzalezBrain Scanner: A device can quickly spot a brain injury by measuring the organ's impedance using RF energy. Researchers have developed an inexpensive helmetlike device that s...
1May 20, 2013 A team of University of Pennsylvania engineers has used a pattern of nanoantennas to develop a new way of turning infrared light into mechanical action, opening the door to more sensiti...
1Just a few weeks ago, IEEE Spectrum wrote about an artificial compound insect eye that was developed by a group of researchers based in the United States. Not to be outdone, a group from EPFL in Switz...
1A new class of imaging device with no lens and just a single light sensitive sensor could revolutionise optical, infrared and millimetre wave imaging The traditional method of imaging, which is at lea...
1A computer two millimeters square is the start of an effort to make chips that can put computer power just about anywhere for the vaunted “Internet of Things.” Much could be done with data gathered fr...
1Powering cellular base stations around the world will cost $36 billion this year—chewing through nearly 1 percent of all global electricity production. Much of this is wasted by a grossly inefficien...
1May 23, 2013 Researchers and physicians in the field could soon run on-the-spot tests for environmental toxins, medical diagnostics, food safety and more with their smartphones.University of Illinoi...
1May 29, 2013 Stanford University scientists have developed an advanced zinc-air battery with higher catalytic activity and durability than similar batteries made with costly platinum and iridium cat...
1May 22, 2013 The discovery of potential environmental and human health effects from disposal of millions of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries each year has led scientists to recommend stronger gove...
1The A4 digital scanner gathering dust under your desk could find new life as a gigapixel holographic microscope, say Japanese engineers who have constructed one at minimal cost Holograms fascinate peo...
