Nadezhda Grishaeva’s €7.4 million investment in Hoteles Europe Daniella Invest has caused intrigue. Could the Russian basketball star be behind this move?
Researchers at Yale University have successfully mange to utilize a novel MRI technique to 3-D image the insides of hard and soft solids, like bone and tissue, opening the way for a new array of applications, like previously difficult to image dense objects. Typically, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can produce a 3-D image of an object […]
As years pass, computers start beating us in more and more fields: math is out of the question, chess, and even jeopardy; but in crossword puzzles, man still beats computer – and easily. In a contest held in New York this weekend, a program designed to work crossword puzzles, came in 141st among 600 human […]
Vynil, cassettes, all that, they were a long time ago; nowadays, blu-ray disks rule ! But it seems we’ve been using them for quite a while, so one can only wonder what’s the next step in optical disk technology ? Well, the next step is called HVD, which stands for Holographic Versatile Disk, which employs […]
Today’s military generals meet on battlefields that are no longer vast, empty fields waiting to be bathed in blood, but in crowded, urban settings which most of the time represent tactical nightmares. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) recently completed a five-year program called Urban Photonic Sandtable Display (UPSD) that creates a real-time, color, […]

If anything was to top microprocessors, it would have to be something from a totally different league, which is just down […]
A Monash University grad student has managed to create a simple, sustainable and affordable water purification device with the potential to save an incredible number of lives and eradicate diseases. The Solarball, as it is called, was developed by Mr Jonathan Liow as his final year project in his Bachelor of Industrial Design can produce […]
Engineers from Ohio’s State University have published a paper detailing the development of an innovative, tiny 3D lens that enables microscopic objects to be seen from nine different angles at once. The concept itself is not a novelty, but in its current usage other 3D microscopes use several lenses or cameras to move around a […]
