It would be cool to have ear plugs able to filter noise electronically. Using such ear plugs, you can easily talk to a co-worker, while filtering out background noise, by simply twisting the adjustment knob.

The idea is to create more realistic prosthetics by using fiber optics to connect nerves to the artificial limbs. Fiber optics will be used to send data to the brain. They are proved to be more efficient than contemporary electrodes: 1. Glass or polymer fiber optics are more flexible than the electrical designs in use now; 2. They are able to transmit more signals at once.

The implant will transmit neural signals from the brain to a computer, that may then be able to relay the signals and allow control of a paralyzed limb. The implant will be about the width of dime and will have a film of microcircuits on its bottom, which will sit in contact with the brain. The microcircuits will detect the patterns of firing neurons and then send the signals to an external computer, using the conductive quality of the skin as a way to use little power for the...

The underwater heart rate monitor will work without chest straps, using instead an infrared sensor attached to the earlobe and capillary activity to measure heartbeat. The heart rate monitor will be attached to the strap of the swimmer's goggles, where it will monitor the heart beat and communicate the rate by a voice transmitted by bone conduction technology. The rate will be communicated as the swimmer moves, and will be set to deliver the information from every 10 seconds to...

The idea is to develop a new sensor integrated steering wheel able to provide a quick vital sign check for the driver and easy to integrate into mass produced vehicles. While there have been many new systems for monitoring stresses while driving, most of them are too complex for commercial use. The simpler steering wheel system will be able to monitor blood pressure and stress levels through reflected light and electric conductance. The driver will need only have his hands on the...

A new healing gel will help re-grow skin and blood vessels, which will prove especially useful for severely burned patients. The hydrogel will be made up of the sugar dextran dissolved in water, and polyethlyene glycol. The gel will differ from others on the market in that the structure of the hydrogel will require no additions of growth factors. The hydrogel will allow the body's natural inflammatory response to easily accumulate within the gel. It will even be possible that...

Why not take into account bone conduction phenomenon and create a telephone for hearing impaired people? The handset in such a case will have a pulsator which, when placed on specific areas of the head, will send vibrations directly to the speech center of the brain. The phone will also include a light to indicate an incoming call and different volume controls.

I've just stumbled across this article about magnetic pills. Scientists can hold such pills in a specific place in the body, pinpointing the most effective location for the body's absorption of the drug. Some drugs can only be absorbed in specific parts of the intestine, and traditional oral pills don't usually stay in that one spot long enough to be absorbed into the bloodstream. The new drug delivery system uses an external magnet system with computer control and feedback...

This fertility monitoring system is such a great invention. It gives couples an easy way to know when peak fertility occurs, making it easier to plan for pregnancy. A sensor in the woman's arm monitors body temperature to within a thousandth of a degree, and gives a 99 percent ovulation time accuracy; this data is transmitted to a digital reader. Just imagine, with such a system it is possible to plan a romantic evening up to six days in advance.
