Kyocera and Toyota have teamed up to do something quite revolutionary in the automotive industry. In fact, it seems more science fiction than today’s reality. Through the use of Kyocera Corp.’s technology, Toyota is poised to place solar panels on the roofs of some models of their popular Prius model as soon as next [...]

NEW technology and forensic science have helped Victoria Police catch more offenders, the force says.

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have found a way to use nanotechnology to boil water more efficiently, which could help them better cool computer chips.

Doug Field, the Chief technology Officer at Segway will be leaving to join Apple, according to a post on the Segway Chat Forum by the administrator, John Grohol

Giga-byte technology plans to launch its M912 mini-laptop by the end of July in Taiwan for NT$19,900 ($654), a company representative said Monday.

Shoppers began lining up at Apple's Fifth Avenue store in New York City over the weekend to be among the first to get their hands on the iPhone 3G, but some of the sidewalk campers had more than just shiny new technology on their minds. Members from an environmental awareness group are hoping to set a record for the longest wait in line for a new product, raise interest in their organization, and even buy new iPhones come July 11

mattnyc99 writes A month ago we discussed the accomplishment when researchers got monkeys to feed themselves with a robotic arm controlled by their brains. But after all the recent successful experiments with brain-computer interfaces, will the technology ever make it out of the lab and into hospitals — or even into our hands, for the closest thing imaginable to The Force? Popular Mechanics takes a look at the future of mind-machine control, speculating on several theoretical applications once brains can adapt to devices via direct communication between, say, synapse and prosthetic. Quoting the field's leading neuroscientist: 'For the foreseeable future, the main benefit is for rehabilitation. But the research is showing that the brain can act independently of the body. One day, you could be sitting in an office and controlling a device from across the room — or in another building. And it's not just flicking a switch. It could be a nanotool that's moving through a tiny env
