Mouse Scanner something more than just a mouse

This mouse will not just serve as a scroll and click functionality, it is still able to scan various documents. More precisely, of course, the documents are not in full, and in part because the size of the mouse does not allow this. So if you want to scan a couple of pages, rather than a whole stack of documents, then this mouse is just what we need. As well as the OCR technology to convert scanned text will allow for editorial purposes. Mouse scanner, of course, not completely replace a large scanner, but will in any case not more than gadget. The mouse is able to scan at a high resolution of 320 dpi.

Yogesh Kumar Baghels MITRA PC is a cylinder-shaped portable computer. It was designed for rural areas in India in order to spread the importance of education, health and other social issues for the development of the country. The term mitra means friend, and the MITRA PC is also an eco-friendly gadget that uses solar energy to store and use in case of emergency. The MITRA PC contains a built-in LED projector for convenient presentation, as well as a hand crank charging facility to generate power (rotating the crank 30 times provides 30 minutes of use).

Tenna device of the future

There are a lot of expectations from our gadgets these days, and somewhere down the line we have blurred their definition. For example a phone doubles up as a video camera, still camera, voice recorder, MP3 player, movie player, web browser, sketchpad and much more. But this also doesnt mean that we are done with individual devices. Tenna is a device that looks at adding the telephone function to individual gadgets like an MP3 player, thus doing a U-turn on how we perceive a phone.

Tenna is basically a screen-less phone that uses voice recognition-based UI. It provides only calling and texting functions when used on its own. The 1.5 device has a detachable ear piece for making calls and hooks up to any device via the USB mini port. So for advanced functions like scheduling, managing personal contacts, connecting internet, just plug it to any of your fav device that has a screen. In a nutshell Tenna will transform any gadget with a screen into a mobile phone via a (proposed) built in software called tennalink. Designer: Yuree S. Lim

Future concept of mobile computing

How small and portable a computer can be? Its almost impossible for us to avoid computer in our everyday life. Industrial designers show us glimpses of the future we are heading towards by their unusual concepts. Designer Elodie Delassuss HOLO computer concept is hinting at the necessity of computers and need to make them easier to carry.

With the facts that holographic and sound vibrations are the future, he has re-invented the computer through his design. From the images and information available, we can figure out that this futuristic gadget is as small as a bracelet, which you can wear or put in pocket. The proposed material is flexible and resistance, so that safety issues could be dealt with efficiently. Further material needs to be shape retaining and non-conductive and non-allergic and most important, heat resistant. All these aspects have been considered by designer and he suggests promising bioplastic material to ensure all these aspects. The concept is very alluring, no doubt, but without technical specifications and functional information its just like a hypothesis that is waiting for proof in get materialized.

Concept camera-ring
This concept is the winner of the contest Design Talents 2012. Designer Jeon Yengwon has now come up with a really cool concept design for a camera which can be worn as a ring. It is aptly named CAMER:ing and comprises of two chief components a tablet-like slate and a separate ring. The ring comes equipped with a camera so that when wearing it, you simply have to click a button to its side and it snaps a shot. Without a doubt, it is a very convenient, and rather discreet, way of taking photos. These photos can then be viewed on the slate so as to let you choose what snaps were good and which didnt come off too well. While it is surely fun to have a ring-esque camera, it does come

coupled with the privacy problem which seems to block the path of many cool camera designs.

Electricity without wires

Marin Solja?i? couldnt sleep. The problem was his wifes Nokia cell phone. The tyrannical device beeped on the bedside table when it needed to be plugged in. It could not be disabled. Instead of taking a hammer to the phone, Solja?i? marveled at the fact that this device, and billions of others like it, was sitting a few feet away from all the electricity it could ever need. Why couldnt it receive power wirelessly, just as laptops get Wi-Fi? A physics professor, Solja?i? dug into the problem and learned that if you could get two magnetic fields to resonate to sing the same note, in effect they could transfer an electric current. With two large magnetic coils, he found a way to throw 60 watts across a room, powering a lightbulb. MIT, his employer, quickly patented the technology and encouraged Solja?i?to start a company. WiTricitys 15 employees are hard at work proving that Solja?i?s magnetic coils can power almost any electrical device. Most of the companys potential customers have one major question: safety. Theres a real perceptual problem, says CEO Eric Giler. People think were putting electricity in the air, and thats called lightning, and they know to stay away from that. In fact, the coils turn electricity into magnetic fields, then back into electricity. Magnetic fields interact weakly with humans; as far as the fields are concerned, we are no different from air. Giler makes a point of standing between the coils whenever he demonstrates the technology. At the Nikkei electronics conference in Tokyo in October, he was able to power a 1,000-watt klieg light from across the room a far cry from that 60-watt lightbulb in Solja?i?s first experiment. Were going up the power curve, he says. -Chris Taylor

Concept Sony PSP 2 with a transparent OLED-display

A year ago, Sony has released a portable console PS Vita. It a branded gaming gadget second generation with a productive processor and a bunch of ways to control gameplay. PS Vita sales were not as serious as we would like, but the device has found its place in the market and feels quite decent. What will happen when the time comes to make another big step forward?

This question was answered by of the designer Jung Ou Yang. He introduced the concept of the portable console Sony PSP 2. The most notable advantage of the toys is transparent 5-inch OLED-display. The era of these screens is not yet come, but now is the time of the revolution. It would be possible to begin a large-scale attack and with the portable consoles. On each side of the display has the traditional controls. Make them transparent obviously is no need. Other specifications Sony PSP 2 look as dignified. There is a full set of wireless protocols including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and 3G, the main and front camera as well as a more powerful processor than the 4-core chip in the real PS Vita. Maybe a couple of years Sony could well produce something like that in reality.

Life-Powered Implant

Medical implants are getting smaller and smaller every day, but battery tech to power the devices remains big in comparison. When they are small enough to fit, they have a limited life longitude and need to be replaced by surgery.

One of the latest experiments in this area is tapping into the electrochemical gradient that body naturally maintains in the fluids of the inner ear. The difference in charge between these the inner-ear fluids convert mechanical impulses that hit the eardrum as sound waves into neurotransmitter firings that the auditory nerve can understand. A report in Nature Biotechnology explains how Boston scientists collected power from the inner ear of a guinea pig using a miniature circuit board and electrodes snaking into its cochlea. (In future tests, they anticipate the board will be implanted.) They extracted power of a little over 1 nano watt for about 5 hours. This was small amount, but it was enough for the device to emit a radio signal that measured the electric potential within the chamber about every minute. The lab of MITs Anantha Chandrakasan, one of the lead authors of the study, provided the lowpower chip used in the experiment.

Gadget Power Coming Out of Your Ears

Researchers show how an electrochemical gradient in the inner ear could power sensors or implants.

This circuit board contains a radio transmitter, antenna, and a chip. It wasnt implanted in the ear, but rather connected to the cochlea of the guinea pig from the outside. Medical devices and implants are shrinking by the day, but battery tech to power the devices remains bulky in comparison. When they are small enough to fit, they have a limited life span and need to be replaced by surgery.

Fortunately, our cyborg future still looks brightresearchers are working on scads of clever ways to turn the body itself into a power source. The newest of those approaches is to tap into the electrochemical gradient that body naturally maintains in the fluids of the inner ear. The difference in charge between these the inner-ear fluids converts mechanical impulses smacking the eardrum as sound waves into neurotransmitter firings that the auditory nerve can understand. A report published today in Nature Biotechnology explains how Boston scientists collected power from the inner ear of a guinea pig using a miniature circuit board and electrodes snaking into its cochlea. (In future tests, they anticipate the board will be implanted.) They extracted power of a little over 1 nano watt for about 5 hours. While thats small, it was enough for the device to send out a radio signal that measured the electric potential within the chamber about every minute. They also used a low-power chip that is under contraction in the lab of MITs Anantha Chandrakasan, one of the lead authors of the study.

The energy harvesting microchip, mounted on a prototype circuit board. The research is a big deal. It is the first time anything like this has been implanted without harming the existing biological wiring in the ear. Guinea pigs responded to hearing tests, even

after a test device was implanted in their ears. Eventually, the researchers hope the setup will be able to deliver drugs or work as a chemical sensor. The in-ear chip joins a growing list of technologies that get their juice from living systems. A few weeks ago, I wrote about electrodes and catalysts implanted in lobsters that powered a watch by converting chemical energy in glucose into electrical energy that ran the watch. And just this Sunday, a group from the University of Michigan showed off a piezoelectric material that converts the hearts mechanical beats into electrical energy efficiently enough to potentially power a pacemaker one day.

It is the first time when a device of this kind has been implanted without harming the existing structures in the ear. Even after a test device was implanted in their ears, guinea pigs responded to hearing tests. via:[technologyreview.com]

Worlds Smallest Petrol Engine

The scientists have created the smallest petrol engine in the world (less than a centimeter long not even half an inch),small enough to power a watch or any small gadget.The mini-motor which runs for two years on a single squirt of lighter fuel is set to revolutionize technology associated with it. It generates 700 times more energy than a conventional battery. It could be used to operate laptops and mobile phones for months doing away with the need for charging.Experts believe it could be phasing out batteries in such items within just six years. The engine, minute enough to be balanced on a fingertip, has been produced by engineers at the University of Birmingham. At present, charging an ordinary battery to deliver one unit of energy involves putting 2,000 units into it. The little engine, because energy is produced locally, is far more effective. One of the main problems faced by engineers who have tried to produce micro motors in the past has been the levels of heat produced. The engines got so hot they burned themselves out and could not be re-used. The Birmingham team overcame this by using heat-resistant materials such as ceramic and silicon carbide, finally.

ARTIFICIAL EYE/ RETINAL PROSTHESIS COULD HELP THE BLIND SEE AGAIN Shawn Kelly, a senior systems scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, has developed a computer chip that translates camera images into electrical pulses that the nerves ins ide the brain can understand. The result is vision. The cameras are incredibly small and mounted to a pair of glasses. The digital information picked up from t he camera is sent along a wire to a thin film surgically implanted in the back of the patient's eye, between the sclera and the retina. The electrical signals stimulate the nerves in the retina, and that allows the patient to see. The system is powered via induction -- not much current is necessary since the electric field doesn't have to penetrate far into the head.
