This Car Never gets Dirty

Nissan has developed a self-cleaning car, which repels dirt, liquids, dust and anything else that sticks to our cars and contributes to the dreadful task of cleaning them.

I don't know about you, but i'm on board with this idea, specially since I have a dar colored car, which shows how dirty it is much faster than white cars.

Now this is what I call innovation!

A coat that transforms into a tent for refugees

Design students at the Royal College of Art have invented a coat that can be turned into a shelter for an adult and a child.

This garment is made of Tyvek, a material which is strong, light and water-resistant and its inside contains pockets which can be used to store documents, phones and money.

The prototype was made by Gabriella Geagea, Anne Sophie Geay, Cassie Buckhart, Eve Hoffmann, Anna Duthie, Jess Wang, Hailey Darling, Zara Ashby, Ruben Van den Bossche, and Giulia Silovy, with the mentoring of clothing brand Wall.

Even if 3D printers aren't much of a new thing, there are people who have taking this instrument to a whole new level to create incredible objects.

This video shows 7 of the greatest things done with the printer.

Some are weird and some are changing industries but we have to admit that their creativity is in a whole new level.

Decorating with a 3D Printer

3D printers aren't something very new, but everyday creative people find new ways to use them and create beautiful and unique objects.

I found some home decoration ideas that were made with 3D printers and thought they were too good not to share.

Here are my favorite.

The Human Mind

The mind is an interesting subject for me.

I constantly find myself investigating new tools, discoveries and studies about it.

Here are my recent findings.

The Future is Here

According to Network Computing, researchers announced this February that they created a wireless brain-computer interface that can be fully implanted in the head of a monkey. According to the paper published by the researchers, two primates had working devices in their brains for a total of 27 months combined. The devices successfully transmitted "neural data" from the primates' brains to a computer that recorded the output of the devices. Wrote the authors "Our introduction of a wireless interface capable of untethered broadband neural data collection beckons use in other clinical diagnostic applications."

I don’t know how to feel about this one yet, what do you think?

Fun Fact:

The human brain is the number one consumer of energy generated in the human body. using 20% of total energy. The brain represents 2% of total body weight.

This energy is equivalent to 25 watts, enough to illuminate a light bulb.

It is believed that, we use only 10% of our brain. This is a misconception since every part of the brain has a known role.

Potential:

When we have something to fight for, such as family, religion and values we feel more motivated to achieve specific goals in life. But uncertainty in our beliefs sometimes creates obstacles in our path.
