Ultrasound Device Makes Clean Water from air in Minutes

Engineering, Mechanical /

MIT researchers discovered how to use sound wave vibrations to release water molecules from a storage medium, greatly accelerating the extraction of drinking water from air. Scientists worldwide are exploring a variety of materials—from specialized paints to spongy aerogels and substances with extremely high surface areas—to extract water from the air. Even in arid regions, […]

New Research Suggests Mars Stayed Habitable Longer than Once Thought

Satellites Tech, Space & Environment /

Scientists widely agree that Mars once had flowing water and a thicker atmosphere, conditions that would have made the planet habitable. But between about 4.2 and 3.7 billion years ago, its rivers, lakes, and global ocean vanished as the solar wind gradually eroded the atmosphere. Exactly how long Mars stayed habitable remains an open question.

New AR Technology Can Transform Any Surface into a Keyboard

Tech, Virtual Reality /

Virtual keyboards are a frequent source of frustration for augmented reality (AR) users. The virtual surfaces are slow and error prone, and raising an arm to type on them can cause muscle strain known as “gorilla arm.” Researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas have developed a novel AR interface that enhances virtual typing
