You know how sci-fi movies depicts fellow humans going to space and landing back on Earth in rockets and not splashing into the sea in capsule? Well, it looks like mankind is indeed making that progression. SpaceX is one of the private space transport services company that not only successful […]
Working at height poses a major and often catastrophic risk of falling and while the invention of aluminum scaffold has since minimized this risk, it is not foolproof as far as potentially deadly fall is concerned. As it turns out, the scaffold itself could be a risk itself due a […]
Rapid prototyping has just officially becomes seriously rapid – thanks to the Stratasys J750 3D Printer. Why? You see, the thing with conventional 3D printers is, asides from the usual software preparation, it requires printing of separate parts, painting them and putting them together before it can be presented as […]
It is well documented that over intake of salt is one of the main culprits of high blood pressure. Our body reacts by introducing more water to get rid of the excess salt, which for some people, may lead to a rise in blood pressure. That said it is critical […]
While Amazon is still working on using drones to deliver parcels, pizza seller Domino’s in Australia proposed to deliver pizza autonomously on solid ground. Described as a “ground-breaking, world-first initiative,” the autonomous delivery vehicle called DRU, short for Domino’s Robotic Unit, was the brainchild of Domino’s DLAB and is powered […]
When it comes to minimizing distraction during driving to improve safety, cars have received much love with developments like head-up display and advanced collision warning system. Unfortunately, this area is largely ignored in motorcycle. While there are efforts my helmet makers to incorporate head-up display on helmet, they are accessories […]
Rutgers University is certainly not the only institution exploring the possibility of UAV/Unmanned Sea Vehicle hybrid. Last week, John Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory also announced its own iteration, which the institution calls Corrosion Resistant Aerial Covert Unmanned Nautical System, or CRACUNS (pronounced as ‘Krakens’). The abbreviation ‘CRACUNS’ may sounds like […]
Seldom do we hear the word ‘concept’ and ‘tires’ being used together, except for a rare few occasions and this rare occasion happened during this year’s Geneva Motor Show when Goodyear reimagined tires entirely. The tire maker has envisioned that the tires of the future could be spherical with the […]
What do a doctor do when when he or she want to stand out from the crowd of medical practitioners? Well, there are many ways, but no others stand out like a name card that measures heartbeat and yes, it is something you can actually acquire, but more about it […]
The threat of nefarious drones is very real and government agencies around the world are wasting no time to develop countermeasures against such threat. While Tokyo metropolitan police and Dutch police are busy experimenting with drone with net and eagles to take down errand drones, British engineers at OpenWorks proposed […]
Last year, Google-owned Boston Dynamics debuted a bipedal robot which impresses the world with its incredible level of balance, but as impressive as it was, that wasn’t the last of its story. Just a couple of days ago, the robotic research and development company has unveiled, through a video, a […]
