Last night, during the NFL season opener in New England between the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers, a technology malfunction reportedly caused the Patriot’s radio broadcast to air on the headsets of the Steelers’ coaches during the entire first half of the game. The nickname ‘Radiogate’ has surfaced – a play on the Patriot’s previous ‘Deflategate’ controversy … [Read more...]
Magnetic Field Cloak to Assist MRI Scanners and Medical Industry
Scientists from the Autonomous University of Barcelona have created a magnetic field cloak, or ‘wormhole,’ which could lead to better MRI scanning. “The wormhole allows a magnetic field to be transported across space but it is not the kind of cosmic tunnel popularised by science fiction. Rather, the magnetic field at one end of the wormhole appears at the other end as an … [Read more...]
Kazakhstan Factory Produces School Uniforms that Protect Against Electromagnetic Radiation
A factory in Kazakhstan is sewing school uniforms that reportedly protect wearers from electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones. The uniforms are produced in the Almaty region but can also be purchased in Astana, Karaganda and Moscow. “Kids nowadays are very tech savvy and spend too much time with their phones,” Aigul Naushabayeva, mother of a 12-year-old daughter, told … [Read more...]
New Metamaterial Yields Invisibility for Aircraft and Drones
Electrical engineers from the University of California have created a new ultra-thin metamaterial that could provide a cloaking device and make UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) invisible. The new material creates invisibility and leaves no electronic, infrared or visual signatures for enemies to detect. The new design uses “an ultra-thin Teflon substrate, studded with … [Read more...]
Woman Claims Wi-Fi Causes Illness; French Court Grants Disability Allowance
A French court has granted Marine Richard, a woman who claims she is ‘allergic to Wi-Fi,’ £500 a month (about $764 U.S. dollars) in disability allowance. Richards claims she suffers from electromagnetic sensitivity and that exposure to Wi-Fi, mobile phones and televisions cause her extreme pain. According to Richard’s lawyers, she has been living away from society in a barn in … [Read more...]
RF Filter Ideal for Use in Intelligent Transport Systems
CTS Electronic Components, Inc. introduces a new surface-mount RF Bandpass Filter for use in Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) such as V2v, V2I, V2X and 802.11p. The filters were designed for use in Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) and Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DRSC).

3D Printing Can Add Circuitry
Researcher Michael Perrone is currently testing a prototype of one of the world’s most advanced 3D printers, which was built by a startup company known as Voxel8. The 3D printer is not on the market yet, but it can produce small objects out of plastic while simultaneously adding circuitry to them. The printer was produced last month in a lab at Harvard University. During … [Read more...]
Parents Sue Boarding School over its Wi-Fi Signal
Parents are suing Fay School, a boarding school in Southborough, Mass., over claims that the school’s Wi-Fi signal is making their 12-year-old son sick. According to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, the parents claim their son has ‘Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome’ and has suffered from nausea, nosebleeds and headaches since the school activated a stronger … [Read more...]
SMD Ferrites Expanded; Company to Showcase EMC Components at Symposium
Würth Elektronik eiSos GmbH & Co. KG will showcase its new range of SMD ferrites, known as the WE-MPSB-SMD Ferrites, at the IEEE EMC Symposium in Dresden. The SMD ferrites are suitable for temporary peak current loads and for use in power supply lines. They can withstand 20 times their specified rated current load – which is 55 percent higher than other components on the … [Read more...]
