Whoa! Mind-Controlled Arm Lets Man Move Prosthetic Fingers by tunexwizard, blog admin              The research, though still in its nascent stages, could potentially help people who have lost arms due to injury or disease regain some mobility, the researchers said. "We believe this is the first time a person using a mind-controlled prosthesis has immediately performed individual digit movements without extensive training," study senior author Dr. Nathan Crone, a professor of neurology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, said in a statement. "This technology goes beyond available prostheses, in which the artificial digits, or fingers, moved as a single unit to make a grabbing motion, like one used to grip a tennis ball."

HOW IT WORKS  Navigating city streets They have taught their cars to navigate through many complicated scenarios on city streets. The cars use their sensors and software to sense objects like pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles and more, and are designed to safely drive around them. Watch the video How it drives Like any driver, a self-driving car needs to constantly answer these questions. Where am I? The car processes both map and sensor information to determine where it is in the world. The car knows what street it's on and which lane it's in. What’s around me? Sensors help detect objects all around us. The software classifies objects based on their size, shape and movement pattern. It detects a cyclist and a pedestrian in this case. What will happen next? The software predicts what all the objects around us might do next. It predicts that the cyclist will ride by and the pedestrian will cross the street. What should I do? ...

All wait next model iPhone 6s in 2015. Yesterday we saw first  iPhone 6s prototype , some  iPhone 6s features . Now we know  rumored release date  in China. We don’t know all iPhone 6s new features, but we know that iPhone 6s will same body like iPhone 6. Not transparent glass body. Some years ago taiwanese tech company Polytron Technologies has revealed a prototype transparent smartphone. Some thinks about transparent iPhone. Maybe iPhone 7 or iPhone 7s. The device, which has the ability to change smartphone industry for good, features a small touchscreen and power glass exterior. There are companies working on phones with flexible screen, and this fully glass design seems first real effort at getting a real transparent phone to the consumer. The only thing may bothers us is that, there hasn’t been a way worked out to make the processors and components transparent. However, it’s cool to see a transforming of virtual design into reality. One more pictu...

Wow lenovo has greatly improved their product to a higher rank with this. Earlier this week we saw Zuk, Lenovo's online-only brand, launching its first smartphone in China named the  Zuk Z1 . The firm has also showcased a smartphone prototype, the highlight of which is a transparent display. In a series of images posted on  Weibo  from the Z1 launch event on Tuesday, the prototype smartphone is seen featuring a near bezel-less frame on the transparent glass-like display. The prototype is said to perform almost all functions of a traditional smartphone such as displaying images, making phone calls, play music, and more, and features an Android-like interface. While there is no information revealed about the transparent display of the Zuk smartphone prototype, the image showing a picture of a girl on the display does hint towards a high pixel density. Needless to say, since this is a prototype smartphone, we would not be seeing it hitting the markets just yet, n...

World's Tiniest Engines Could Power Microscopic Robots By tunexwizard , Live Science Contributor  |  May 4, 2016 04:50pm ET   88   14   18   32   13 MORE   Expanding polymer-coated gold nanoparticles. Credit: Yi Ju/University of Cambridge NanoPhotonics Scientists have created the world's tiniest practical engines, and these light-powered machines could one day power microscopic robots small enough to enter living cells, the researchers say. As  technological innovations  make devices smaller and smaller, scientists are developing machines that are only the size of complex molecules — nanometers, or billionths of a meter, in scale. In comparison, the average human hair is about 100,000 nanometers wide. One of the main reasons " nanobots " remain in the realm of science fiction is that figuring out a way to make them move has been challenging. Researchers have tried using a variety of power sources and pr...

Get 'Bionic Hearing' with New Smart Earbuds By   Tunexwizard, Live Science Contributor   |   May 9, 2016 05:21am ET ·           550 ·           32 ·           7 ·           10 ·           1768 ·          MORE The IQbuds from Nuheara are equipped with noise-cancellation technology. Credit: Nuheara If you've ever been on a crowded bus and found yourself stuck between a loud conversation on one side and obnoxiously loud music on the other, the idea of being able to cancel out that background noise probably sounds like bliss. Now, new earbuds can not only help boost your hearing and cancel out pesky noise, but also serve as wireless earphones for making phone calls and listening to ...
