Inventions of 2010

Android Phone

The Android has proven itself a force to be reckoned with, offering a legitimate alternative to the all-mighty iPhone. If you havent heard, Android is a Google-backed operating system for cell phones. The code is free, open-source and easy to alter. Users can create their own interfaces and control many kinds of hardware, plus it has over 10,000 Android apps.

The Electric Eye

MIT researchers are developing a microchip that will enable a blind person to recognize faces and navigate a room without assistance, helping the blind to regain partial eyesight. The chip, which is encased in titanium to prevent water damage, will be implanted onto a patients eyeball. Users are

required to wear special glasses fitted with a small camera that transmits images to the coils surrounding the eyeball titanium-encased chip, which fires an electrode array under the retina that stimulates the optic nerve.

Ipad

The ipad was revealed January 27, 2010. Apples recent announcement of the ipad was easily the most anticipated tech news of the year. The ipad certainly had the majority of news-seekers wowed while many others were disgruntled. The apps that come loaded with ipad were designed precisely for the ipad. These native apps fully use the extra-large multi-touch screen. These apps will work from any direction you turn the unit and it helps to make the ipad unique as well as useful. The ipad bigger sized screen presents web pages in the way you would expect to see them on your home computer or laptop rich, vibrant and with few compromises. It makes the web user experience a pleasure. This is another unique point of the ipad. Information and web pages could not be clearer. The other

feature that you get similar to the iPod is the ability to use your fingers to zoom in, scroll, choose menu options and much more, stuff you already do on your iPod, but now you can do it with more meaning and purpose! Email also becomes a much different experience versus what you my have previously experienced. There is a new level of flexibility in how you can view and what you can do within the iPads email application.

The Smart Bullet

The XM25, developed for the U.S. military by Alliant Tech systems, allows soldiers to measure the distance to a target using a laser range finder, dials

in exactly where the bullet should explode (over or past walls, the corner of buildings) at precise distances. At a cost of $30/round, the bullets are equipped with microchips capable of registering distance according to the number of times theyve rotated.

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to "nanotech") is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometer in at least one dimension, and involve developing materials or devices within that size. Quantum mechanical effects are very important at this scale. Nanotechnology is very diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly, from developing new materials with dimensions on the nanoscale to investigating whether we can directly control matter on the atomic scale. There is much debate on the future implications of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology may be able to create many new materials and devices with a vast

range of applications such as in medicine, electronics, biomaterials and energy production. On the other hand, nanotechnology raises many of the same issues as any new technology, including concerns about the toxicity and environmental impact of nonmaterial, and their potential effects on global economics, as well as speculation about various doomsday scenarios. These concerns have led to a debate among advocacy groups and governments on whether special regulation of nanotechnology is warranted.

Tri-specs

You have your phone, your iPod, your headphones, and your Wi-Fi headset, in case you get a call. You have your sunglasses. What if you could pull on your shades and have all of the above, in one cool package?

Enter Tri-Specs. They come in built-in Bluetooth wireless headphones for an MP3 Player or cell phone, retractable ear buds, built-in volume control, and even voice control. For $200, you can be the coolest kid on the block.

The KS810 Keyboard Scan:

This keyboard with a fully-integrated scanner takes product hybridization one step further. The KS810 keyboard contains a full-color, 600dpi scanner that lets you drop scans into most online applications. If keyboard scanning

isnt your thing, product creator Lifeworks is also offering a keyboard with a built-in iPod dock.

Power mat Wireless Battery Charger

If youre tired of carrying around one charger per electronic toy, youre in luck. The Power mat lets you charge your iPhone, Blackberry, Nintendo DS, and most other gadgets on the same mat. One mat, one plug.

Pure

Pure, a British-designed wind up water bottle that uses ultra violet light to purify dirty drinking water .This invention can help to drink water in many places in which water is not clean.

Amatoya

This is a light and fast car that can drive through rugged terrain and penetrate a fire. The car has an insulated cabin that can withstand temperatures of more than 600 degrees. Its high-powered water cannon can be operated from inside, so crews can fight fires from the middle of a blaze. (It is made in Australia)

Nemo

It is a life boat that can be transported by plane for high speed rescue and can land on water safely with the crew inside .This deadly useful boat is made in Austria.

Interior Compositing Device

It is a bin that decomposes organic waste quickly without having to worry about the smell. When the aperture is opened and closed, the body of the bin rotates, creating heat inside. This process causes the waste to decompose. It can also filter the compost so it can then be used as fertilizer.
