Science got into the breakfast of our pets and discovered the secret tongue cats.

3 years ago the engineer Roman Stocker of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology watched his cat licking milk from a bowl, and as many believed that their drinks hornbill was due to the roughness of his tongue.
But he studied the art of licking and saw that drinking milk, pet combined a delicate balance between inertia and gravity.

The animal's tongue movements generate columns of liquid flow into its mouth, this in contrast to dogs, using its tongue like a spoon.
But now, what kind of science is this that is interested in a cat's breakfast?, Because fijense that important this is, as there are now studying how engineers apply the step by step of the cat's tongue in robotics, and as seen even in seemingly small details like the tip of the tongue of a cat hiding great discoveries.




New Technologies.


Metaflex


Metaflex is the name of a material that brings us one step closer to making fabrics that will create the effect of invisibility of objects.  The Metaflex is a metamaterial, or what is the same, an artificial material that presents unusual electromagnetic properties. In the past I have developed metamaterials that bend and channel light to become invisible objects in long lengths. The Metaflex consists of flexible membranes meta-material, created by the use of a new technique which has freed the meta-atoms from the hard surface on which they were built. Thus, the Metaflex can operate at wavelengths of about 620 nanometers in the visible light region. The union of these membranes could produce a "smart fabric" that would be the first step to make a coat or other garment to "wipe out" the person that size.




Holograms that can be touched


In Japan is working on a project in which a hologram, plus be visible also may feel. Holograms typically appear on credit cards, DVDs and CDs to prevent forgery. The larger holograms have also been used in the entertainment industry (video game consoles like the famous Wii). So far the technology has been tested with relatively simple objects, although researchers have more practical plans, including virtual switches at hospitals.




The bionic eye


The invention is partially implanted in the eyeball and is designed for patients suffering from degenerative vision loss or hereditary. It restores sight perfectly, but it is expected that blind people are now able to distinguish points of light that the brain can reconstruct images. How? The bionic eye has a tiny camera placed on a lens. The device transmits a signal in the retina, which stimulates neurons alive within this and which in turn send the images to the brain.




Self-healing material


Swiss scientists have developed polymers that have an inherent capacity to repair itself by exposure to ultraviolet light and that could be extremely useful in areas such as packaging, construction, transport and prolonging the life of materials used in numerous applications .






New Technologies of the future, according to Microsoft.

Neuroscientists Medical Center, University of Rochester (USA) have discovered a drainage system which removes waste brain, according to a study published today in Science Translational Medicine, they expect to have application in Alzheimer's research and Parkinson's.

The system acts like pipes that take advantage of the brain blood vessels and seems to do the same function in the brain that the lymphatic system in the body: drain waste products.
The author of the paper and co-director of the Center Neuromedicina University of Rochester, Maiken Nedergaard said "waste cleanup is vital to all organs and long have questions about how the brain gets rid of its waste .

"This work shows that the brain is being cleaned in a more organized and on a much larger scale than was previously believed," said Nedergaard he expressed his hope that this finding serves to treat brain diseases.

"We hope that these results have implications for many conditions that affect the brain, such as traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and Parkinson's disease," he added.

Nedergaard equipment has called the new "glinfático system", since it acts similarly to the lymphatic system, but is managed by the cells of the brain known as glial cells.

The team made ​​the discovery in mice, whose brains are very similar to the human brain.

Scientists have long known that the cerebrospinal fluid has an important role in cerebral tissue cleaning, in charge of carrying the waste products and nutrients to brain tissue through a process called diffusion.

The newly discovered system circulates all over the brain more efficiently through what scientists call the overall flow.

"It's as if the brain had two garbage collectors - one slow and one fast we knew we just met," said Nedergaard

"Given the high rate of metabolism in the brain and its high sensitivity, it is not surprising that its mechanisms for disposal of waste is more specialized and extensive than previously thought," he added.

cнιpѕ тнαт repαιr тнeмѕelveѕ

Researchers at the University of Illinois (USA) have developed a circuit capable of automatically returning the electrical conductivity to parts of it that have lost some breakage.

At present, a failure of this nature requires changing the chip, and are becoming more common mistakes due to increased density that manufacture these devices.
The invention involves placing a liquid metal microcapsules, about 10 microns in diameter, above the chip areas that perform electrical conduction. If a break in the conductive material slides the liquid metal in the gap in microseconds. In tests 90 percent of chips of this mechanism is gifted recovering autorrepararon 99 percent of the original conductivity


The main application could be in vehicles or military or space where the electronics can not be replaced or repaired.
A great advantage of this system is that it is located and autonomous. In other words, the microcapsules are broken only in places where there is a problem and they do not need human supervision.

AUMENTED REALITY


Augmented reality is one of today's technological revolutions. We talk about it in many places, but the question may arise: What is really, what is it?. We have answers.

Augmented reality is a technology that merges real-life elements with other virtual, and does so in real time, so that we can interact with them. The main idea is to add cards or identifiers to real world objects and to see something happen with a camera, and display information or bring up other virtual objects.


      Uses  

 See details of objects or places in real time: We focus a restaurant with mobile or tablet and automatically displays information from the main menu offers and recommended.
- Allow use of real-life elements in video games, such as the action takes place in our desktop.
- Show holograms where we are,
- Interacting with virtual objects as if they were real

Some of these features are experimental, such as holograms and virtual objects, but some how the information in real time and are part of our daily life. Just so you know better you can visit our gallery where we have several modern examples of augmented reality.Do not miss the video!

In the history of technology emerging technologies (New technologies) are contemporary advances and innovation in various fields of technology








One finding is a finding or encounter something that was hidden, secret or unknown. This is a novel observation of some aspects of reality
