Lithium-ion battery recharges by kinetic energy

The engineers at Georgia Institute of Technology, U.S., have developed a new type of lithium-ion batteries, that have some changes in their chemical parameters that allow the recharging of the battery at the touch or flexing of the object. The scientists have replaced the plastic interlayer, that is battery electrolyte (a chemical that stores electricity gelatinous paste) with a layer of lectric nanotubes (which converts the movement into energy).



The research team created a hybrid battery that converts the motion into electricity and chemical.

By creating this type of hybrid batteries, it can directly influence the flow of ions, scientists can jump completely over charging circuit, creating more efficient ways to capture mechanical energy.

The process is not very simple, but these small biomechanical devices from U.S. researchers could become one of the solutions to the need of energy around the Globe.

Top 5 Cars of 2013

We love cars, and in the last year we have seen a lot of frenzy over eco-cars and fuel efficiency. In 2013, most of the cars that will be released are all about design, curved, shape and... future.

The red color is back with a vengeance, and 3 out of 5 cars that I've picked for this top are red. Which one do you like?

2013 SRT Viper
2013 SRT Viper has a 640-hp V-10 and a body constituted of Mg, aluminium, and carbon fiber. We are anticipating vastness from Chrysler's supercar. This Viper is projected to gainsay cars that can attain 90% of their prospective without technical guardrails.
estimated price: $100,000


2013 Jaguar F-Type Roadster
Most blogs say that this car will be released around mid of 2013. The world has seen this car as theJaguar's C-X16 concept back in 2011. We will see this on the streets in 2013 as the new F-Type with a boosted 3.0-liter V-6 that will produce 380 hp.
estimated price: $60,000


2013 Chevy Corvette C7
C7 will debut at the following winter's North American automobile exhibit in Detroit. It features a 5.5-liter V-8 that expends pushrods.
estimated price: $50,000



2013 Dodge Dart R/T
R/T drives on a Fiat bod adopted from the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, with a amply sovereign suspension. Most bloggers anticipate that suspension will be bluer and more buckram in the R/T. The 2013 Dodge Dart R/T will get a 184-hp 2.4-liter four under the hood.
estimated price: $23,000


2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo
The Hyundai Veloster inadequacies in the performance area to accompaniment its slayer looks. Let's hope that this will change one time this 201-hp edition will be released.
estimated price: $23,000

iPhone 4 Case: Star Wars Han Solo in Carbonite 2012

Joy to the world! No, let me rephrase that. Joy to Star Wars fans because a new iPhone 4 Case is ready for you. The Star Wars Han Solo in Carbonite is something new, unique and it's amazingly made. This case fits perfectly with both iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s.




This ultra slim “barely there” style iphone case is designed to fit 4 and 4S models and simply snaps over your phone. My covers are designed and printed in my shop using a dye process which actually binds the ink with the surface, resulting in a durable, long-lasting imprint on your custom case! There are openings for your buttons and camera lens.

Robotic Exoskeleton Suit Reinvents Farm Harvest

The Tokyo University of farming and applied science has produced an agriculture industrial robot suit customised to the 40% of Japan’s farmhands who are over the age of 65.

Shigeki Toyama, a prof in robotics who produced the industrial robot and cropping suit, essayed to make it industry and task-specific in order to engender monetary value rescues in bringing forth the suit.

“Anyone can use it without a drop in work efficiency,” Toyama said. “I want to increase the types of work in which it can help.”

A robotic exoskeleton is an external robotic skeleton that supports and protects an the body, in contrast to the internal skeleton (endoskeleton). In popular usage, some of the larger kinds of exoskeletons are known as "shells".

The robotic exoskeleton was envisioned in movies like Alien and Matrix. It seems that now it could become real with the available technology these days.

All About Vasectomy reversal

A vasectomy is an procedure to cut and seal the tubings that conduct sperm from your testicles to your penis. Vasectomy is a lasting form of contraceptive method and implies that a man who undergo this surgery is no longer able to have kids.

A few adult males come to sorrow their conclusion to have a vasectomy and want it reversed.

Vasectomy reversal is more fortunate if it is done shortly after the original vasectomy. The more the time between the vasectomy and a reversal operation, the less likely you'll be able to father a child. The success rate declines along with time.

It is crucial to realize that winner is not ensured. Fertility is back in 8 out of 10 men who experience a vasectomy reversal. Nevertheless, 1/2 of men can make their partner with child in the two years after the operation. The presence of sperm in your seminal fluid does not assure that your partner will get pregnant. The agents that can affect your fortunes of a hopeful reversal are many.

The most important factor is the time since you had vasectomy procedure. The type of vasectomym and the technique used to do the reversal are pretty important as well.
