When you look at this it looks like a ball.But the real fact is quite different.The Panono camera is a ball with 36 built-in camera in it.You throw it in the air and the accelerometer inside the camera measures the launch acceleration to calculate when the camera is at its highest point and start moving.

Then all the 36 cameras are triggered and the picture is captured.You can get a 360 by 360 degree spherical image which you can then see in the Panono apps. Images are spat out at 108-megapixels.

A very interesting product that looks like a lot of fun, with huge potential.

Chemical Scanner for Shopping

An Israeli inventor invented a tiny gadgets which allows a consumer to analyze the chemical composition of foods,drugs and other items.


The Gadgets called SCio an infrared spectrometer is being marketed for three applications-food,pharmaceuticals and horticulture,or the health of plants.Simply by pointing and clicking a miniature digital wand,users can see how many calories are in a piece of cheese or determine when a tomato will reach peak ripens.

SCio could have life saving uses such as identifying contaminated foods or determining whether a drug is counterfeit.

With the spectrometer, he said, you can just point the gadget at an item—without even necessarily knowing what it is. The device reads the item's molecular structure, matches the information to an ever-expanding database and then can send additional data to your smartphone.

3D Printers

In Last December,2013 Michigan Technological University announced their firsr 3D printer.However not many of these printers is available to the common peoples.

Rocket parts,Bionic ears and even toothbrushes were all successfully printed with 3D printer.

3D printers use a variety of very different types of additive manufacturing technologies, but they all share one core thing in common: they create a three dimensional object by building it layer by successive layer, until the entire object is complete. It’s much like printing in two dimensions on a sheet of paper, but with an added third dimension: UP. The Z-axis.

Each of these printed layers is a thinly-sliced, horizontal cross-section of the eventual object. Imagine a multi-layer cake, with the baker laying down each layer one at a time until the entire cake is formed. 3D printing is somewhat similar, but just a bit more precise than 3D baking.

 

                                      SMART ROBOTS

 

Quadcopters are quickly gaining popularity.consumers can look forward to smart quadcopters like Spiri.Spiri is a programmable flying robot that has an onboard camera and range finder to help you achieve whatever you program it to do.

Robot cubes that can move about on their own and assemble themselves into anything they are programmed to do. Magnets are used to attach the blocks to one another while flywheels inside the body of each cube generate enough momentum for them to move and even jump in the air.

There’s no real application to what these modular robots can actually do right now as it’s still in the very early stages of research, but this modular idea means that a machine isn’t limited to a single task but can assemble itself into another machine to achieve another task.
