Columbus camera captures first views of Earth
One of the experiments housed on the European Columbus laboratory's external platform is an automated eye in the sky known as the Earth Viewing Camera (EVC). Now, after several weeks of troubleshooting by the EVC team in the Netherlands, the first pictures from the orbiting camera have arrived safely back on Earth. view more (2008-03-12)
The positioning system makes it possible for patients under observation to move around
In future, the patient positioning system will allow also those patients who are under constant observation to move freely in the hospital. If a patient`s condition declines, an alarm system is activated and sends a signal to the control room. The same alarm system also sends information about the exact location of the patient in the hospital.... view more... (2002-04-05)
RIT Study Benchmarks Quality of Digital Archiving in American Museums

Paper-Thin Compound-Eye Camera
The focal length of a lens means that a camera has to have a certain thickness - or so we might think. Insect eyes show that this need not be the case: A camera chip based on the compound-eye principle can be used for person recognition and is as thin as paper. If people were insects, books on optics would certainly look different. The camera... view more... (2004-07-08)
Olympus Mons - the caldera in close-up
View from overhead of the the complex caldera (summit crater) at the summit of Olympus Mons on Mars, the highest volcano in our Solar System. Olympus Mons has an average elevation of 22 km and the caldera has a depth of about 3 km. This is the first high-resolution colour image of the complete caldera of Olympus Mons. The image was taken from a... view more... (2004-02-11)
INDICARE: Two thirds of European Internet Users have Experience with Digital Music
A representative survey among 4852 European consumers finds that a large share of Internet users already has experience with digital music. However, the survey shows that the main source for digital music are ripped CDs, not Internet downloads. In addition, the survey reveals that consumers are not well informed about usage restrictions and DRM... view more... (2005-05-25)
Measuring in 3-D
