Keyboard bubbles up from touchscreen when typing, deflates when done - Electronic Products
Keyboard bubbles up from touchscreen when typing, deflates when done Novel technology will provide tablet and smartphone users with amazing new way to use a physical keyboard Now you see it, now you don’t.
Out of all the technologies from Star Trek that I wanted to become a reality, the one I wanted the most was the Hypospray . I mean, who wouldn’t prefer being injected with an aerosol spray instead of being archaically stabbed with a piece of metal, hoping that it hit a vein. Needleless, air-based injections have been around in some form for quite a while now, but most of them require compressed air or air canisters to deliver medicine.

Home » Elite » High Speed Travel Tubes Can Take You From NY To Beijing In 2 Hours The Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) system would take passengers from New York to Beijing in just two hours. Advocates of Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) claim it is silent, cheaper than planes, trains, or cars and faster than jets. How it would work: put a superconducting maglev train in evacuated tubes, then accelerate using linear electric motors until the design velocity is attained. Passive superconductors allow the capsules to float in the tube, while eddy currents induced in conducting materials drive the capsules. Efficiency of such a system would be high, as the electric energy required to accelerate a capsule could largely be recaptured as it slows.

Fuel cell gadget charger PowerTrekk is finally hits store shelves in the States. Starting May 2012, you can head to outdoor equipment store REI to purchase this nifty device, which charges electronics with only water. PowerTrekk first debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show 2012. The small device can charge cell phones, MP3 players, and eventually laptops with the addition of mere tap water. The key is a special reaction that produces hydrogen on demand, which is stored in a hydrogen fuel cell battery.

The world's smallest bit Scientists from IBM Research have been investigating and controlling matter on an atomic scale for decades. So, naturally, their latest quest would involve greatly decreasing the storage capacity needed for one bit of data, which on today's computers stands at about 1 million atoms.
