Voice Reco Matches Audio With Notes
About five years ago, NeoLab Convergence released a stylish smart pen designed to write like a normal pen, but also transferred notes to a phone or tablet over Bluetooth. Now the company has launched a Kickstarter for a recording device that works with its Smartpen to match written notes with what’s being recorded. “It is almost impossible to remember and […]

Why Does It Rain Hail In Summer?
Mother Nature does what Mother Nature wants and in many scenarios, we can’t predict it. Especially with global warming causing extreme weather events, it is important to understand what weather is considered normal and what is considered out of the ordinary. But you don’t have to be a meteorologist to take note of some of the more obvious things about […]

Sampling Robots
Even if they’re wearing face shields and masks, healthcare workers can still understandably be quite leery of getting up close and personal with patients who may have COVID-19. That’s where a new robotic system comes in, as it lets clinicians take samples at a distance. Developed by scientists at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) and the Dongguk […]
Aerogel Fashioned Into World
Containing the electromagnetic radiation generated by electronic components is a key consideration for designers of electronic devices, but today’s metal-based shielding materials have their downsides. Scientists at the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (EMPA) have developed an new aerogel-based material that blocks a wide range of frequencies, forming what they describe as by far the lightest electromagnetic […]
“Graphene Armor”
Perovskite is emerging as a promising material for solar cells, but it has some durability problems. Now, engineers have developed a new electrode that could make them more stable, using a protective layer of “graphene armor.” In just 10 years or so, perovskite solar cells have advanced so fast that they’ve more or less caught up to silicon’s several-decade head […]
