Bio-Integrated Electronic Tattoo Measures Vital Signs and Muscle Movement

In the not-so-distant future, patients with heart disease won’t have to strap brick-size Holter monitors to their arms or waists, with webs of electrodes connected to their chests to monitor their hearts. Those unable to speak will communicate by muscle movements in their throats, and the blind will read with finger tubes that “poke” their fingertips with programmable electrotactile stimulations in place of bulky brail.

New Design for Solar Panels that Can Simultaneously Generate and Store Energy

The potential energy available via solar power might seem limitless on a sunny summer day, but all that energy has to be stored for it to be truly useful. If you see a solar panel on a rooftop, in a large-scale array, or even on a parking meter, a bulky battery or supercapacitor is hidden just out of sight, receiving energy from the panel through power lines.
