| Study uses GPS technology to predict football injuries Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:22 PM PDT Soccer players' injuries may be predicted by looking at players' workloads during training and competition, according to new research. Researchers discovered that the greatest injury risk occurred when players accumulated a very high number of short bursts of speed during training over a three-week period. |
| Flexible wearable electronic skin patch offers new way to monitor alcohol levels Posted: 02 Aug 2016 12:13 PM PDT Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a flexible wearable sensor that can accurately measure a person's blood alcohol level from sweat and transmit the data wirelessly to a laptop, smartphone or other mobile device. The device can be worn on the skin and could be used by doctors and police officers for continuous, non-invasive and real-time monitoring of blood alcohol content. |
| Space scientists observe Io's atmospheric collapse during eclipse Posted: 02 Aug 2016 10:37 AM PDT Astronomers have documented atmospheric changes on Io, Jupiter's volcanically active satellite, as the giant planet casts its shadow over the moon's surface during daily eclipses. |
| What can a sea-lion teach us about musicality? Posted: 02 Aug 2016 09:56 AM PDT Ronan the sea lion can keep the beat better than any other animal; a new study found out more. |
| Computers will be able to assess humans' state of mind Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:42 AM PDT Machines are taking over more and more tasks. Ideally, they should also be capable to support the human in case of poor performance. To intervene appropriately, the machine should understand what is going on with the human. Scientists have developed a diagnostic tool that recognizes user states in real time and communicates them to the machine. |
| Ultrasonic vibrations cause fingers to bounce on touchscreens, reducing the friction Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:37 AM PDT Researchers discover that ultrasonic vibrations reduce friction on flat screens by causing the fingertip to bounce on pockets of trapped air. |
| People not technology will drive success of autonomous vehicles Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:37 AM PDT As the world moves closer to autonomous and self-driving vehicles, road safety experts are turning from technology to psychology to better understand the road to safer mobility. |
| Mapping the exotic matter inside neutron stars Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:35 AM PDT Scientists performed the first accurate determination of the thermodynamic properties of dense quark matter under violent conditions that occur during neutron star mergers, and suggest a step towards distinguishing between neutron and quark matter cores in neutron stars. |
| Bridging the gap between the quantum and classical worlds Posted: 02 Aug 2016 07:35 AM PDT Strong coupling in specific light-matter interactions, previously believed to be a quantum phenomenon, is explained with classical models and experiments. |
