Japan gets the world’s lightest Android tablet made from aircraft grade carbon-fiber.. NEC Medias Tab UL N08-D, a 7 inch tablet which is the lightest in the world weighing in at 249 grams only. It is just 69% of the weight of the Amazon Kindle Fire and 71% weight of the Google Nexus 7. It does not cut flab by giving up on features but by making use of a super light weight aircraft grade carbon-fiber..

The world's smallest artificial heart, made by Italian scientists. This tiny titanium pump was implanted in a baby, at the Bambino Gesu' Hospital in Rome May 24, 2012. Doctors from Rome's Bambino Gesu' Hospital saved the life of the 16-month-old baby with this artificial heart.

Microsoft released the first ad of Windows Phone7. We can see in this video, a mess of black become larger and larger. I wonder what the hell it is, an UFO which appear in desert? Exciting! But when it comes to my face with some words: the revolution's coming, I realize it's a mobile phone, not too bad! just keep going to see which kind of revolution. The end...Hell, microsoft! All right, let's enjoy this "revolution"!

In the future all electronic devices will be wirelessly powered. Small, battery-powered gadgets make powerful computing portable. The battery charger should be capable of charging the most common battery types found in portable  devices today.  In addition, the charging  should be  controlled from the base station and a bidirectional communication system between  the pickups  and base  station  should be developed. Inductive Power Systems: Inductive Power Transfer (IPT)  refers to the concept of transferring electrical power between two isolated circuits across an air gap.  While based on the work and concepts developed by pioneers such as  Faraday and Ampere, it  is  only recently that IPT has been developed into working systems. Essentially, an IPT system can be divided into two parts; Primary and Secondary. The primary side of the system is made up of a resonant power supply and a coil. This power supply produces a high frequency sinusoidal current in the coil.  The seconda

Image via Wikipedia Here are the steps to perform:-   Logic: the server has a major bug in it, by which it fails to block two simultaneous connections from the phone and establishes a connection with full internet working,   Supported devices: all phones with multichannel gprs support   For connection on your mobile phone:-   1) Make two connections like bsnl portal and BSNLPORTAL1   (names of profile don’t matter, u can keep one as bill gates and shahrukhkhan lol. The basic purpose of names is to enable the user to differentiate between the two accounts,)   2) Select the application you got to have the full connection working on.   Surpassingly “web” now just select “bsnl portal” profile and select a link like wap.cellone.in the page will get open, just press the red button such that the “web” application goes in the background.   Make sure that the gprs connection is still established with the web app. Two parallel lines on the top left of the screen will confirm this

Paul Hanna  is the author of this futuristic vehicle called Energo Racer . The designer was highly inspired by nature and namely marine creatures. He created the shape of the vehicle after studying the  bodies of marine animals  and analyzing these animals move their bodies to swim faster. The vehicle can be built in a way so it would be powered by  several alternative fuels and power sources . For example, it can run on  hydrogen  or be powered by solar energy .

This futuristic parking system was designed by  Jin Yuanbiao, Gang Tang  and  Su Sha  especially for the all-electric vehicle dubbed Solar Coco. Both the car and the parking system boast nice design and eco-friendly features. The round-shaped vehicle has solar panels  mounted on the roof. When parked, the car is lifted by the system up and exposed to direct sunlight. After being lifted, Solar Coco exposes its solar panels to the sun and the whole structure starts resembling sunflower.

Researchers from the European Commission are working on a  new speed camera  that will be able to detect five different violations simultaneously. The device, called  Advanced Safety and Driver Support for Essential Road Transport (Asset) camera , can detect not only speed offences, but also spot drivers that did not fasten their seatbelts. Besides, the camera can monitor the distance between cars to detect tailgating. It can  capture license plates  and verify against the relevant databases. This allows recognizing the vehicles that haven’t been taxed or insured. All data collected by the GPS-enabled gadget are sent back to the central database. Pictures that are over a month old along with images with no violation are deleted. The Asset camera is part of a GBP7 million project. According to the developers of the system, each camera costs about GBP50,000. It is worth mentioning that the camera was developed by a group of European universities and research institutions. The current p

British scientists at the University of Bristol developed a  copycat robotic head , dubbed Jules. The head is able to  mimic the facial expressions  and lip motions of a human. The  robotic   Jules  represents an  animatronic head  developed by David Hanson, American specialist in robotics, who works on the creation of uniquely expressive, incorporeal heads made of flexible rubber skin which moves with the help of 34 servo motors. The motions of a human face are monitored by a  video camera and mapped onto small electronic motors in the skin of the robotic head. The group of scientists at Bristol developed their own software that will help pass the expressions, which the video camera recorded, into commands, thus making servos  generate facial motions  that are similar to the real ones. But due to the fact that the robot’s motors cannot be compared to the real human facial muscles, a little artistic license was needed. The scientists hired an actor, who performed on camera different

PC’S RUN WITH THEIR OWN HEAT RATHER THAN ELECTRICITY Computers may soon be able to recycle parts of their own waste heat, using a material being studied by researchers. The material is a semiconductor called gallium manganese arsenide. Researchers at the Ohio state university describe the detection of an effect that converts heat into quantum mechanical phenomenon known as spin in a semiconductor. Once developed, the effect could enable integrated circuits that run on heat rather than electricity. This research merges two cutting edges technologies: thermo electricity and spintronics, explained team leaders joseph heremans, Ohio eminent scholar in nanotechnology, and Roberts Myers of the Ohio state university. Image via Wikipedia  Myers and Heremans have been trying to combine spintronices with thermo-electronics that is, devices that convert heat to electricity.”Spintronics is considered as a possible basis for new computer in part because the technology is claimed to produce no h

Gyro finds the perfect balance Plymouth based silicon sensing is to provide a miniature precision micro electro-mechanical system gyro to Fataba,a leading Japanese manufacture of remote control model helicopter electronics for use in its next generation servo – controllers. The Pinpoint gyro was chosen for its combination of tiny footprints [6 × 5] mm, ultra-low power consumption [12mW] and wide measurement range [900 o/s]. Silicon Sensing said that compared to gross helicopter market less than two years ago. Pinpoint delivers the same function and performance in a package that is under 1/100 th the size and weight, draw less than 1/10 th of the power and is 1/3 rd of the cost.  Its performance brings improved endurance and precision control to a wide range of aircraft. Silicon sensing said that pinpoint is the only MEMS gyro to use a fully balanced vibrating silicon ring, whereas others use various forms of simple open loop vibrating mass structures. The 3-mm diameter balanced
