"High-definition," "high-fidelity" 3D vision. Obviously, the biggest deal for robotics is the improved 3D sensing. We're not sure what "high-definition" means , exactly, but it's definitely better, possibly 1080p 60fps better. The sensor itself operates based on time of flight (like a...

Called AGITATE, the device is currently the size of a 5p piece. It requires no battery: when shaken, it converts mechanical energy into radio signals which can be tracked through walls and up to 20km in built up areas. In free space, the device is said to have an estimated range of 20...
[Darren] built a clock that uses a resistor to display the time . Well, it really uses a model of a resistor. This extremely tardy entry in the Hackaday design challenge houses all of the electronics on a PCB the size of a business card. Four RGB LEDs shine up through holes in the woo...
Healthcare might seem to be an unlikely target application for the Internet of Things technology, but recent developments show small ways that big-data is going to make an impact on patient care moving into the future. One example is the Aventura Hospital and Medical Center in Aventur...
