Engineers develop graphene circuits that are flexible and water-resistant

In the future, electronic circuits could be inexpensive and printed into any surface, thanks to a technology that allows graphene to be printed in flexible materials. The procedure, featured in the journal Nanoscience, opens up the possibility of incorporating electronics into a wider range of products. Engineers were able to make functional materials by using ink […]

Technology for plants: Engineers have developed sensors for leaves, enabling farmers to capture more detailed data about their crops

The future of science and technology is looking up — and it’s not just for man and machine. Plants are also getting in on the action, thanks to innovations like the “low-cost, easily produced, graphene-based, sensors-on-tape.” Despite the long description, this wearable sensor tape can be easily stuck to a plant, which, in turn, will allow data […]

New “living” tattoos are made with a 3D printer, respond to changes in the environment

If you like body art, but you aren’t quite committed to having a tattoo, this may be the next best thing: Engineers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a 3-D printing technique that uses ink from “genetically programmed living cells” to create temporary “living tattoos.” These tattoos can be attached to the […]

Revolutionary technology can diagnose heart and lung disease from a patient’s breath

Looking for signs of heart and lung disease in the future could just be as easy as checking your breath, according to experts who participated in the first East Midlands Breathomics Pathology Node (EMBER) Industry Symposium. The EMBER symposium, held at the University of Leicester, examined the most recent advancements in technology could be used […]
