If your bike isn’t among those, you can now change that by slapping on Garmin’s Varia eRTL615 radar/tail light module.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading Garmin Varia eRTL61 brings car-detecting radar tech to existing ebikes
Scientists at the University of Georgia have created a “superfoam” with two very valuable potential applications. It could be used not only to clean up oil spills, but also to keep infections from occurring at medical implant sites.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Multi-functional “superfoam” soaks up oil spills and kills bacteria
When designing fish-like underwater robots, you want a means of propulsion which is both energy-efficient and reasonably speedy. A new tail-flapping system may fit the bill, paving the way for wider usage of such bots.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics… Continue reading Groundbreaking robotic fish has a twisted method of propulsion
Even though a variety of conditions may cause people to lose their appetite, it’s important for those folks to keep eating in order to recover. A new “electroceutical” ingestible capsule could help, by making them feel hungry … and it was inspired by a… Continue reading Gut-zapping lizard-inspired capsule could boost patients’ appetites
Although ebikes are generally thought of as a green form of transportation, most are made of materials with a fairly large carbon footprint. The Multipath is a bit different, in that its frame is made of recycled plastic and alloy.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading Ultima Multipath ebike has a recycled plastic/alloy frameset
In the past two years, Israel’s Steakholder Foods (formerly MeaTech 3D) has brought us a lab-grown steak and lab-grown Wagyu beef morsels. Now, it has produced what it says are the world’s first whole fillets of cultivated fish … grouper, to be precise… Continue reading “World’s first” cultivated fish fillets served up in Israel
Hand edema, which is a swelling of the fingers due to the accumulation of fluid from injury or disease, is typically treated via a hand massage performed by a therapist.

If the bacteria with which someone is infected are antibiotic-resistant, physicians need to know so as soon as possible, so they can take the appropriate action. A simple new system could help, by detecting such resistance in just two hours as opposed … Continue reading System quickly spots antibiotic-resistant bacteria by watching them shimmy
While most hydration packs could be used for just about anything, they’re typically designed with activities like mountain biking or running in mind. The Duet, on the other hand, was created specifically for use at outdoor music festivals.Continue Read… Continue reading Duet hydration pack is made for music festivals
When deaf athletes with cochlear implants take part in sports like rugby, they have to wear headgear that protects the external parts of their implant. A new wearable serves that same purpose, while reportedly allowing users to hear the sounds around t… Continue reading Special headgear allows deaf athletes to better hear shouts and cheers
