Smart Glasses That Automatically Adjust to Your Eyes

University of Utah researchers produced a prototype pair of smart glasses by using flexible lenses and piezoelectric pistons where the lens’ curvature is gradually altered by the pistons. Unlike traditional, rigid glasses, the lenses of these smart glasses are flexible, enabling focus to be sharpened for both nearsighted and farsighted users. Each lens is comprised […]

Low-Power Artificial Synapse Could Potentially Interface With the Brain

Researchers at Stanford University and Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore, California have created an “artificial synapse” that can be used to create flexible circuitry that could directly interface with the brain and perform computations using far less power than current silicon systems consume. This organic transistor, otherwise known as an electrochemical neuromorphic organic device (ENODe), […]
