In many fields of technology, smaller is better, and machinery is now getting so tiny it’s measured in mere atoms. Researchers at the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg (FAU) in Germany have now developed what they claim are the world’s smallest working … Continue reading World’s smallest gears measure mere nanometers to power molecular machines
Researchers at Imperial College London have developed a simple new way to make materials with intricate nanoscale textures on their surfaces, all inspired by nature. Different patterns can have a range of applications, like making antimicrobial surface… Continue reading Nature-inspired nanotextures pop superbugs, help ships cut through water
A team of researchers led by Chandan Sen at the Indiana University School of Medicine, is moving a new nanochip device, which can reprogram skin cells in the body to become new blood vessels and nerve cells, out of the prototype phase.Continue ReadingC… Continue reading New nanochip reprograms cells in the body to perform different functions
Something like 99% of the people on the road at any given moment will consider themselves an above-average driver, something that’s as statistically impossible as it is easily disproven by …read more Continue reading Annoy Yourself into Better Driving with This Turn Signal Monitor
Lightning is a powerful and seemingly mysterious force of nature, capable of releasing huge amounts of energy over relatively short times and striking almost at random. Lightning obeys the laws …read more Continue reading Detect Lightning Strikes with an Arduino
A beach is always a relaxing summer vacation destination, a great place to hang out with a drink and a book or take a swim in the ocean. For those …read more Continue reading Arduino Finds Treasure
Have you ever heard of a Centurion minicomputer? If not, don’t feel bad — we hadn’t either, until [David Lovett] stumbled upon a semi-complete version of the 1980-ish mini in …read more Continue reading Homebrew ROM Reader Saves Data from a Vintage Minicomputer
The inner machinations of the mind of cryptocurrency markets are an enigma. Even traditional stock markets often seem to behave at random, to the point that several economists seriously suggest …read more Continue reading Hamster Trades Crypto Better than You
Join us on Wednesday, July 7 at noon Pacific for the Microfluidics for Biohacking Hack Chat with Krishna Sanka! “Microfluidics” sounds like a weird and wonderful field, but one that …read more Continue reading Microfluidics for Biohacking Hack Chat
For anyone that’s fiddled around with a magnifying glass, it’s pretty easy to understand how optical microscopes work. And as microscopes are just an elaboration on a simple hand lens, …read more Continue reading Macro Model Makes Atomic Force Microscopy Easier to Understand
