‘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. The nickname ‘Radiogate’ has surfaced – a play on the Patriot’s previous ‘Deflategate’ controversy … [Read more...]
RFID Sensors Allow for the Collection of Football Data
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...]
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...]
Woman Claims Wi-Fi Causes Illness; French Court Grants Disability Allowance
A French court has granted Marine Richard, a woman who claims she is ‘allergic to Wi-Fi,’ £500 a month (about $764 U.S. dollars) in disability allowance. Richards claims she suffers from electromagnetic sensitivity and that exposure to Wi-Fi, mobile phones and televisions cause her extreme pain. According to Richard’s lawyers, she has been living away from society in a barn in … [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...]
Parents Sue Boarding School over its Wi-Fi Signal
Parents are suing Fay School, a boarding school in Southborough, Mass., over claims that the school’s Wi-Fi signal is making their 12-year-old son sick. According to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, the parents claim their son has ‘Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome’ and has suffered from nausea, nosebleeds and headaches since the school activated a stronger … [Read more...]
Company Introduces New Amplifiers at Symposium
TMD Technologies will introduce a new wide range of travelling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs) for EMC HIRF testing at the IEEE EMC Symposium in Dresden. The TWTAs are compact, lightweight, affordable and offer high field strength. The amplifiers are ideal for use in numerous EMC testing and intermodulationg (PIM) testin applications as well as telecommunications, electronic … [Read more...]
