The Cota wireless charger uses steered phased array antennas to focus a beam of microwaves on a receiver module while avoiding obstacles in the path. The inherently safe technology delivers several watts of electrical power at up to 30 feet, and is projected to hit the market in 2015.

Industrial designer Tammy Kalinsky has come up with a simple yet ingenious accessory for the wheelchair which allows a friend, relative or caregiver to push the chair while walking beside rather than behind it.

Cambridge Audio has released an audiophile-pleasing all-in-one music player called the Minx Xi, and a new range of Aero speakers featuring its hybrid Balanced Mode Radiator driver technology.

Vietnamese firm H&P Architects has produced a new prototype modular dwelling constructed from bamboo. Dubbed Blooming Bamboo, the home is designed to withstand heavy flooding, and is also intended to be mass-produced at low cost.

Remotely hacking a pacemaker or insulin pump should be impossible, but sadly it isn't. It puts the millions of people who use wireless medical implants at risk. Researchers at Rice University believe they have a solution: a touch-based device that will use a person's own heartbeat as a password.

The Galaxy Note doesn't have a lot of peers. Sure, there are other huge phablets in stores, but few of them have a built-in stylus or the software to support it. So while we're taking a look at the new Galaxy Note 3, why not compare it to one of the best smartphones of 2013, the HTC One?
