Wireless handheld spectrometer costs less than $300 and can enable remote medical diagnostics

Spectral images, which contain more color information than is obtainable with a typical camera, reveal characteristics of tissue and other biological samples that can’t be seen by the naked eye. A new smartphone-compatible device that is held like a pencil could make it practical to acquire spectral images of everyday objects and may eventually be

VIDEO: Thought-controlled quadcopter takes to the skies

Can be controlled by thought alone Up, down, bank, take a photo! Researchers at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China, have developed a quadcopter that can be controlled by thought alone. The idea is to give people with impaired motor abilities a new avenue for interaction. Their system relies on the commercially available Emotiv electroencephalography (EEG) headset to interpret brain activity as
