Wearable technology is a rapidly evolving area of medicine, and now engineers from the University of California (UC) San Diego have continued the trend, developing a wireless ultrasound-system-on-a-patch that can continuously monitor vital signs in rea… Continue reading A wearable ultrasound could revolutionize monitoring on the move
MIT scientists have developed a new wearable patch that can deliver drugs through the skin more efficiently and painlessly. The device uses pulses of ultrasound to pry open the skin, which could improve topical medications or even tattoos.Continue Read… Continue reading Painless patch uses ultrasound to deliver drugs through the skin
Researchers have developed a new ultrasound method that can, for the first time, measure tension in human tissue, potentially revolutionizing disease diagnosis.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Ultrasound, Diagnosis, Diagnostic devices, D… Continue reading Breakthrough ultrasound method can detect tension in human tissue
It goes without saying that if someone has a blood clot in their brain, that clot should be cleared as soon as possible. An experimental new transducer could help, as it uses swirling waves of ultrasound to break up blood clots much faster than existin… Continue reading Experimental device breaks up blood clots using twisted ultrasound
Engineers at the University of Minnesota have developed a new system that can move objects without making physical contact. The technique involves ultrasound waves acting on specialized surfaces to push or even pull objects in different directions, whi… Continue reading Ultrasound metasurfaces move large objects without touching them
For those that haven’t heard, ultrasonic levitation is a process by which two or more ultrasonic transducers are set opposite to each other and excited in such a way as …read more Continue reading Mini Ultrasonic Levitation Kit is an Exercise in Sound Minimalist Design
Clothes dryers are great, and a key part of modern life, but they do use a lot of energy. [Mike Rigsby] decided to see if there was a more efficient …read more Continue reading Hackaday Prize 2022: Drying Clothes With Ultrasound
Sales of vinyl records have been steadily rising over the last few years, attracting new listeners to the format as well as prompting music lovers to dust off their collections again and start spinning. And the issue of dust can be a real problem.Conti… Continue reading Ultrasonic bath cleans records before playback on matching turntable
Getting a bandage to stick to your skin can sometimes be difficult, particularly if that skin is wet. This isn’t a problem with an experimental new wound dressing however, which uses ultrasound-induced microbubbles to better bond with the skin.Continue… Continue reading Hydrogel bandage uses ultrasound to better stick to the skin
What if you could effectively prevent someone from recording your voice? This is the focus of a study by Guo et al. (2022) at Michigan State University, in which they …read more Continue reading Remove a Speaker’s Voice From a Recording Using Ultrasound
