Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a glove with a special fingertip which employs stochastic resonance in order to improve the wearer’s sense of touch and motor performance. The technology could be used to assist individuals whose jobs require high-precision manual dexterity or those with medical conditions that reduce their sense of ... »

There are many power sources today as wind power, hydro-power, tidal, geothermal, solar power as well as the power used in wristwatches, where oscillations that occur while we move our hand power the watch. Researchers from the University of Michigan are developing a similar, more sensitive, technology. Their small generators could produce enough electricity from ... »
