The new smartphone application will be able to customize a mobile device's output to suit the specific hearing needs of the user. Since no one has the same kind of hearing loss, the application will run a simple test to identify the user's particular type of hearing loss across a range of frequencies. The software will then alter the output of the device by turning up the volume on the frequencies the user will mark as difficult to hear.

The DNA of E.coli bacteria was found to be a great data storage. Data compressed into chunks can be placed in different cells and easily located later. This new method enables one gram of E. coli to store the same amount of data as 450 two-terabyte hard drives, and can even be used to store images, music, and videos.

Manufacturers of photographic equipment continue to improve camera models, change their design, performance attributes for maximum ease of use by consumers. Australian company Fotopol went on a few different ways to deliver maximum comfort to the same consumers.

Skiing and snowboarding are sports that I am fond of. Why not have googles that give you all kinds of statistics while you slide down the mountain? They will come with GPS and have a screen in the glasses. The display will tell you things like your contact information, external conditions, speed, altitude, distance, temperature and number of runs. You can even use them as a stopwatch and a clock to keep your progress.

The idea is to create a new device which will be small enough to be injected into the eye, where it will be maneuvered to deliver drugs more effectively. The device will be controlled electro-magnetically to the desired location of the eye, where it will then deliver a capsule of medication or remain in place for a long period of time, delivering prolonged treatment. It can then be removed from the eye with a magnetic needle. Such a delivery system could be particularly...

My idea is to create a wireless keyboard that can be rolled up and packed away, providing tablet users the convenience and comfort of a keyboard. The keyboard will use Bluetooth technology to link with a tablet or mobile device from up to 30 feet away and, once paired with the device, won't need to be re-paired. The silicon keyboard will be water resistant, and will include a Li-ion battery, power switch, and a mini-USB charging port. LED indicators will relay the status and...

Inspired by the troubles in Japan, I suggest creating a new cooking pot able to harness the heat from a pot of boiling water to charge a smartphone. Thermo-electric cookpot will use strips of thermoelectric ceramics to use the difference in temperature between the bottom of the pot and the boiling water to generate electricity. The device could be helpful in aiding disaster victims as well as giving citizens of developing countries a way to charge their devices in areas with...

Because traditional insulin pumps are bulk and obvious, only about 30 percent of people with Type 2 diabetes choose them over daily injections. The new insulin pump will be slimmer and more elegant than traditional insulin pumps, making it easier to carry and more discreet. The pump will be about the size of a credit card and will feature a full color touchscreen display. It will be powered by a rechargeable battery and will control both fast acting and low flow dosages. It...

Buying clothes in the internet is a great idea but there is the disadvantage of not being able to try the stuff on. I suggest creating online shop where you could put your measurements and a computer program would generate a virtual model of your body. You could also create your own virtual wardrobe there, fill it in with items from different on-line shops and try them on for size, style, color to make sure that the clothes would be exactly what you wanted.

I want an audio file on my phone which will frighten off mosquitos within a radius of 3.5 feet. A human won't hear anything but mosquitos will. The sound will be similar to the buzz of mosquito male which mosquito female try to stay away from.
