A factory in Kazakhstan is sewing school uniforms that reportedly protect wearers from electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones. The uniforms are produced in the Almaty region but can also be purchased in Astana, Karaganda and Moscow. “Kids nowadays are very tech savvy and spend too much time with their phones,” Aigul Naushabayeva, mother of a 12-year-old daughter, told … [Read more...]
New Universal Duobody Unit for SAR Measurements
ART-Fi presents the double body Phantom SAR measurement solution, which allows customers to test global regulations with a universal ART-MAN Duobody unit. “The Duobody has two head side mannequins and two flat phantoms, making it a universal system for both head and body SAR testing to global regulatory requirements,” Benoit Derat, president of ART-Fi, said. The tissue … [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...]
3D Printing Can Add Circuitry
Researcher Michael Perrone is currently testing a prototype of one of the world’s most advanced 3D printers, which was built by a startup company known as Voxel8. The 3D printer is not on the market yet, but it can produce small objects out of plastic while simultaneously adding circuitry to them. The printer was produced last month in a lab at Harvard University. During … [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...]
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...]
African Village Burning Rituals Help Identify Reason for Magnetic Field Weakening
A team of scientists has reported that ancient village burning rituals that took place during the Iron Age have provided evidence of what could have possibly caused the weakening of the magnetic field in South Africa. Scientists discovered that a hot and dense rock 2,000 miles beneath the surface that is 4 miles wide is the cause of Africa’s magnetic field weakening. “The … [Read more...]
Robots to Help Build Radio Telescope for Far Side of Moon
Researchers are making progress in building a radio telescope array that would be placed on the far side of the moon by a robot. The robot, or rover, would be controlled by NASA astronauts in the Orion spacecraft. A team at the University of Colorado Boulder, lead by Jack Burns of the Lunar University Network for Astrophysics Research (LUNAR), has developed a system that … [Read more...]
