The NFL has joined with Zebra Technologies to launch MotionWorks RFID sensors, which will be placed in the shoulder pads of all the players. “The sensors will each emit unique radio frequencies that will be captured by the 20 receivers that have been put in all the stadiums that are used by the NFL,” according to the Tech Times. Through these sensors, data about the players … [Read more...]
Magnetic Field Cloak to Assist MRI Scanners and Medical Industry
Scientists from the Autonomous University of Barcelona have created a magnetic field cloak, or ‘wormhole,’ which could lead to better MRI scanning. “The wormhole allows a magnetic field to be transported across space but it is not the kind of cosmic tunnel popularised by science fiction. Rather, the magnetic field at one end of the wormhole appears at the other end as an … [Read more...]
TECH TIDBIT: Insects Controlled by Electromagnetic Waves?
A new video has surfaced on YouTube which shows ants moving in a ring around an iPhone when the phone receives a call – suggesting that the electromagnetic waves emitted from a ringing phone can affect the insects. Researchers are divided on the matter. One Australian researcher, Simon Robson of Queensland's James Cook University, believes the phone has nothing to do with the … [Read more...]
New Metamaterial Yields Invisibility for Aircraft and Drones
Electrical engineers from the University of California have created a new ultra-thin metamaterial that could provide a cloaking device and make UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) invisible. The new material creates invisibility and leaves no electronic, infrared or visual signatures for enemies to detect. The new design uses “an ultra-thin Teflon substrate, studded with … [Read more...]
High-tech Highways Could Charge Electric Cars While Driving
The United Kingdom is currently testing technology that would allow high-tech highways to recharge electric cars as users are driving. “The U.K. has already tested a bunch of different approaches to this technology and identified versions that work and are ready to manufacture. In basic terms, the system has power lines connected to coils under the surface of a road, which … [Read more...]
Multi-Domain Computer Networking Solution Introduced
Advanced Programs Inc. (API) introduces a new Multi-Level Security Platform (MLSP). The MLSP allows the user to access up to four separate security domains in one desktop platform and it consists of four separate CPUs. The MLSP is efficient, convenient, secure and unique because it offers users multiple levels of security. It also eliminates air gap requirements and ensures … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic Catapult Successfully Installed on Aircraft Carrier
The Navy’s new electromagnetic catapult, the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System, (EMALS) has successfully been installed on the USS Gerald R. Ford, replacing the steam catapults previously used to launch aircraft. Because EMALS yields less maintenance, more control, more reliability and a lighter weight, the Navy decided it will be used on all future aircraft carriers in … [Read more...]
Proposed Radio Tower Could Cause Health Risks
Washington state residents are against the proposed KRPI radio tower Whatcom County wants to put south of Point Roberts. Residents reportedly fear the radio tower would emit electromagnetic radiation and create serious health risks. “Recent cellular research has shown that our DNA suffers breaks in its strands with continuous exposure to EMR. Continuous exposure to EMR would … [Read more...]
New Power Entry Module Offers IP 54 Protection
Schurter announced its new power entry module 5707 now offers IP 54 protection with V-Lock cord sets. The module also offers IP 65 protection. “The compact module combines an appliance inlet, fuseholder, and standard or medical EMC filter rated up to 8 A at 250 VAC. The original 5707 offers IP 65 seal protection at the panel opening, around the fuseholders, and between the … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic Impulse Readings to Help Identify Possible Earthquakes
NASA has launched a software known as ‘Quest For Quakes,’ which is designed to spot electromagnetic pulses before earthquakes occur. “‘Quest For Quakes’ encourages individuals knowledgeable in writing software codes and devising algorithms to search for evidence that could back the theory of electromagnetic pulses preceding earthquakes,” according to researchers. The ‘Quest For … [Read more...]
