You might think that cycling multi-tools have already been designed to fit into every bike component imaginable, but such is not the case. Wolf Tooth’s Axle Handle Multi-Tool takes things further, by doubling as a rear wheel axle lever.Continue Reading… Continue reading Wolf Tooth’s latest cycling multi-tool doubles as an axle lever
As we get older, it becomes more difficult not just to get to sleep, but also to reach and maintain a state of deep sleep. The experimental new SleepLoop device is designed to help, by emitting noises into the wearer’s head.Continue ReadingCategory: He… Continue reading Head-pinging wearable designed to improve users’ sleep
There are many parts of the world in which fresh water may be plentiful, but it’s also full of harmful microbes. An experimental new filter is able to purify such water for drinking, and it’s powered solely by sunlight.Continue ReadingCategory: Good Th… Continue reading Sun-powered water filter excels at killing pathogens
While AUVs (autonomous underwater vehicles) are invaluable for gathering oceanographic data, they also tend to be fairly large and very expensive. The Hydrus offers a much smaller, less costly alternative, which still packs a lot of punch.Continue Read… Continue reading Hydrus packs autonomous ocean exploration tech into a much smaller package
Although many seniors end up requiring some sort of mobility assistance, not all of them are wild about the stigma that comes with using a walker. That’s where the Laufrad comes in, as it’s a sleek adult-sized carbon fiber balance bike.Continue Reading… Continue reading 10-lb Laufrad carbon fiber balance bike is made for seniors on the move
In a typical sailboat race, the course is marked with a series of buoys that have to be anchored to the seabed, and which may get pushed around by winds or currents.

While some folks might say that obese people should just exercise more and eat less, things aren’t always quite that simple. With that fact in mind, a new implant is being designed to help boost the weight-loss process, by killing hunger-inducing cells… Continue reading Non-surgical implant uses laser light to treat obesity
Two of our biggest environmental problems are the tons of unusable plastic waste, and the tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) which are released into the atmosphere in smokestack emissions. A new process is claimed to use the former to trap the latter.Continu… Continue reading New technique uses plastic waste to capture CO2 emissions
For some urban deliveries, a conventional cargo bike is all that’s needed. In cases where a bit more of a vehicle is required, however, the modular-loading pedal-electric ONO may be just the way to go.Continue ReadingCategory: Urban Transport, Transpor… Continue reading ONO pedal-electric delivery vehicle carries cargo in swappable modules
While the recycling of paper is all very well and good, reusing it is even better. A new pollen-based paper was designed with this fact in mind, as text can be printed onto it and then chemically erased multiple times.Continue ReadingCategory: Environm… Continue reading Sunflower pollen used to create chemically erasable, rewritable paper
