Seeing that your Apple iPhone is always just a quick reach away, it makes sense to build a defense tool right into the case itself. That's exactly what the Spraytect iPhone Case is, a detachable pepper spray cartridge built right into the case. The case features several different safety mechanisms to ensure you don't end up spraying yourself in the eye, and also comes in different colors as we...
Recorder is this magic pen that converts your written notes into electronic files and then transfers it to your phone and computer via Bluetooth. I think it’s a great idea and can actually encourage us writers to take to the book and pen more often. I bet authors and illustrators will love it too! My only wish – it auto spellchecks the fil...
This is the portable lounge chair that eliminates the need to bring a cooler, umbrella, or tote bag to the beach. Insulated compartments inside the armrests hold up to 12 cans of soda, four wine bottles, or several sandwiches, keeping them cold even on sweltering summer days.

This is the first time lasers have successfully levitated a nanodiamond. To force the tiny diamonds, which were 1,000 times thinner than a fingernail, to float, the scientists focused a pair of lasers toward a clear vacuum chamber and sprayed in the diamonds. The diamonds gravitated toward the light, and some eventually levitated in a stable positi...

In other words most lovers don’t have time to spend in a real world so they exchange emails and SMS.In the past the only way for lovers to interact...

NASA is co-developing an exoskeleton that could give astronauts superhuman strength. The 26-kilogram X1 Robotic Exoskeleton fits over an astronaut's leg, has motorised joints and, for the time being, it could be used to add resistive force in microgravity, helping astronauts on the ISS exercise. In the future it could be paired with a spacesuit to provide additional force needed during surface exploration, improving balance and helping astronauts...

The world’s first smartphone hit the market on August 16, 1994. Its name was Simon and was produced by IBM. It contained most of the features we’re used to: email, predictive typing, even a rudimentary version of “apps” by way of plugging in a memory card to get more features. It also weighed over a pound, was the size of an actual brick, and cost almost $1,...

Now we all know that the iPhone is no doubt one of the coolest phones in the world, with the ability to do everything thanks to the fact there’s an app for pretty much anything. But there are some things that even an app can’t do – like keeping you cool on a hot summer day. You’ll need some hardware to do that, and that’s what the folks at Japan Trust Technology did. They’ve created the iPhone Dock Fan. Plugging into the docking port of your iPhone...

Earthworms creep along the ground by alternately squeezing and stretching muscles along the length of their bodies, inching forward with each wave of contractions. Snails and sea cucumbers also use this mechanism, called peristalsis, to get around, and our own gastrointestinal tracts operate by a similar action, squeezing muscles along the esophagus to push food to the stomach. Now researchers at MIT, Harvard University and Seoul National University have engineered a soft autonomous robot that moves via peristalsis, crawling across surfaces...

The Airless Bike Tires made by Britek was developed to eliminate the necessity of air in tires and to help the prevention of punctures, tube replacements, and pressure checks. The ‘Energy Return Wheel’ is a concept by Colorodo-based designer Brian Russell. Instead of air, it uses rubber stretched over a series of carbon nano tube reinforced composite rods to provide its cushioning. These rods can be adjusted, changing the tension of the rubber...

Innovation: Wound Healing SprayScientists are working on a portable spray-on-skin that can heal severe wounds in just a few minutes. The spray mainly contains important proteins that can reprogram the injured cells to become stem cells, and back to young uniformed skin cells. So far they were able to accelerate healing process from 12 weeks to 21 days with a similar approach.This work is inspired by “The Skin Gun” which can heal burns in a fraction...
