Glamos is a tiny device that uses LIDAR technology to project a kind of virtual touchscreen anywhere one is needed, turning TVs and projectors into giant motion-controlled displays that you don’t need to actually touch. Continue reading Touchscreen projector device brings gesture control to any display

A team of scientists has created a mathematical model for what they say is the ideal coffee, recommending that a less-is-more approach could lead baristas to produce one heavenly espresso after another, using around a quarter fewer beans. Continue reading Scientists brew up a mathematical formula for the ideal coffee
Fighting cancer can sometimes feel like a game of Whack-A-Mole – even after a primary tumor is removed the disease can crop up again in other organs. Now, researchers have developed a drug that can prevent cancer from spreading. Continue reading New drug may keep cancer metastasis under control
A team of Harvard scientists has finally solved the mystery of how acute stress causes hair to turn gray. The researchers discovered when stress triggers the “fight or flight” response, it depletes pigment-producing stem cells in hair follicles. Continue reading Mystery of how stress turns hair gray finally solved by Harvard team
Scientists at Texas A&M University have figured out a way to supercharge boron carbide armor’s already impressive stopping abilities, adding a little silicon to the mix so that it can withstand bullets traveling at even higher speeds. Continue reading A dash of silicon improves stopping power of common body armor material
It’s been at least eight years in the making, but we’ve finally got a sneak peek at the first Romotow fold-out caravan, with its crazy-stylish rotating cabin and built-in sun deck. It’s bang-on with the concept renders and production starts soon. Continue reading Romotow’s fold-out “Swiss army campervan” nears completion
Fillings are essentially the only treatment option widely available for cavities, but now researchers from China have created a new peptide-based coating that can prevent cavities from forming. Continue reading Peptide tooth coating helps keep cavities at bay
Through a mix of advanced science, lateral thinking and a little good fortune, researchers at Stanford University have developed new drugs that have proved effective in halting the growth of cancer cells in early experiments. Continue reading Stanford scientists adapt antiviral treatments to take down cancer
Phase 2 human trial results have been published demonstrating the efficacy of an oral form of the influenza vaccine. The trial compared the pill to the most commonly used injectable flu vaccine and found it as safe and effective as its counterpart. Continue reading Flu vaccine in a pill as effective as injectable form in human trials
