Tachographs for diving animals
Seals, sea lions and penguins have two things in common with whales and dolphins: They are all ocean swimmers and evoke human sympathy - not only from children. Especially when whales become stranded or seals fall victim to an epidemic, some of us ask: How did this happen? Could this be prevented in future? The job of answering such questions lies... view more... (2002-12-20)
Speedier skis on course for World Cup glory
Skis equipped with an ingenious new self-waxing device that enables them to travel quicker could make a dramatic entry onto the skiing scene in the 2008/09 World Cup season. view more (2007-09-13)
Sound Filters Light
Russian researchers have developed a small, smart and tolerant to vibrations spectrometer, which is equally reliable in the outer space and in oceanic depths. The development was performed with financial support from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR) and the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises (FASIE). The... view more... (2004-11-01)
Study examines novel PFO closure system
A new device designed to close a common heart defect known as a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is safe and effective at 90-days follow up, according to a new study released today at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) 32nd Annual Scientific Sessions in Las Vegas. view more (2009-05-11)
A new 'Pyrex' nanoparticle
Researchers in Switzerland have developed a new method to fabricate borosilicate glass nanoparticles. Used in microfluidic systems, these "Pyrex"-like nanoparticles are more stable when subjected to temperature fluctuations and harsh chemical environments than currently used nanoparticles made of polymers or silica glass. view more (2008-09-08)
New lens device will shrink huge light waves to pinpoints
Manipulating light waves, or electromagnetic radiation, has led to many technologies, from cameras to lasers to medical imaging machines that can see inside the human body. view more (2007-07-13)
Understanding of actuator properties of carbon nanotubes bring micro machines closer
Imagine machines smaller than microscopic in size working around us, in us and for us. Imagine them seeking out diseases, cleaning the environment and making the world a better place. view more (2007-11-26)
New quantum dot transistor counts individual photons
A transistor containing quantum dots that can count individual photons (the smallest particles of light) has been designed and demonstrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2007-10-12)
Penn study finds ICD devices offer heart patients life-saving benefits
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Medicine have discovered that implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) — electric monitoring devices that deliver a lifesaving shock in the event of a cardiac arrest — help patients with heart problems live longer more active lives. view more (2007-04-09)
First heart patients implanted with next-generation mechanical heart pump
Three patients at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center were among the first in the United States to be implanted with a next-generation artificial heart pump called the DuraHeart™ Left-Ventricular Assist System. view more (2009-06-03)
Team develops new metamaterial device
An engineered metamaterial proved it can function as a state-of-the-art device in the complex terahertz range of the electromagnetic spectrum, setting a standard of performance for modulating tiny waves of radiation, according to a team of researchers from Boston College, the Los Alamos and Sandia national laboratories, and Boston University. view more (2009-02-25)
Memory with a twist: NIST develops a flexible memristor
Electronic memory chips may soon gain the ability to bend and twist as a result of work by engineers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2009-06-03)
Artificial pump effectively backs up failing hearts
Patients with severe heart failure can be bridged to eventual transplant by a new, smaller and lighter implantable heart pump, according to a just-completed study of the device. view more (2009-04-03)
Next generation cloaking device demonstrated
A device that can bestow invisibility to an object by "cloaking" it from visual light is closer to reality. After being the first to demonstrate the feasibility of such a device by constructing a prototype in 2006, a team of Duke University engineers has produced a new type of cloaking device, which is significantly more sophisticated at... view more...

Like a snail through the intestinal canal
The medical device currently used for intestinal research, the colonsope, causes patients great discomfort. At TU Delft, an alternative method has been developed, inspired by the way in which snails move. view more (2006-09-22)
Gliders For Mobil Communication
The Moscow scientists have suggested that the tele- and radiobroadcast and vehicular communication transponders should be installed on the gliders instead of the towers. If such gliders can be raised up on the firm kevlar ropes to the height of 10-15 kilometres, then only three transponders will be required to ensure stable communication.... view more... (2002-06-21)
MIT works toward novel therapeutic device
MIT and University of Rochester researchers report important advances toward a therapeutic device that has the potential to capture cells as they flow through the blood stream and treat them. Among other applications, such a device could zapp cancer cells spreading to other tissues, or signal stem cells to differentiate. view more (2007-10-23)
The guiding of light: A new metamaterial device steers beams along complex pathways
Using a composite metamaterial to deliver a complex set of instructions to a beam of light, Boston College physicists have created a device to guide electromagnetic waves around objects such as the corner of a building or the profile of the eastern seaboard. view more (2009-08-03)
