Invisibility Cloak to Improve Military Operations
A team of scientists from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) have developed a material that resembles an invisibility cloak. The material could change the face of military operations and would allow weapons and maybe even military personnel to function while undetected. UCSD scientists have tested the “first effective dielectric metasurface material—an ultra-thin, … [Read more...]
‘Radiogate’ Controversy in First NFL Game – Pittsburgh Experienced EMI in Helmets
Last night, during the NFL season opener in New England between the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers, a technology malfunction reportedly caused the Patriot’s radio broadcast to air on the headsets of the Steelers’ coaches during the entire first half of the game.
