Stanford University scientists have just introduced their first untethered exoskeleton for use beyond the lab, which adjusts its level of assistance on the fly and offers a boost akin to taking off a 30-lb (13-kg) backpack.

While wind energy systems can come in some pretty big forms, scientists at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore have developed a small, low-cost device sensitive enough to capture energy from a light breeze.

Movements at the particle scale happen extremely quickly, which makes it hard to see what’s going on in there. Now engineers have developed an “attoclock” that can take snapshots of electrons in increments as small as quintillionths of a second.

While it's handy to be able to control our devices via voice commands, speaking those commands out loud can be problematic. The EarCommand system offers an alternative, as it "reads" users' silently mouthed words by monitoring their ear canal.

Sometimes it's vital to record a meeting or a lecture to listen to at a later time. But doing so constantly on our phones can use data we may not have. This 64GB Mini Voice Activated Recorder holds 64GB for recording on the go.

The latest off-road RV build from Action Mobil is one of the company's fiercest yet. But after six-wheeling proficiently over dirt, rock, mud and snow, it softens into an off-grid homestead so hospitable it pings you when the laundry is done.

A new study has shed light on how an experimental drug can reverse some of the damage associated with traumatic brain injury. The findings lay the groundwork for a drug that could prevent the cognitive deficits that follow on from concussion.

Refurbished electronics can save you tons of money while delivering the computing power you're looking for. If you insist on getting the iPad Pro, you can get your hands on a new-to-you unit at an unbelievably affordable price.

For decades, inventors have pursued the concept of adding "smell-o-vision" to movies or TV shows. Swedish scientists have now created such a system for use in VR gaming, and it could actually help people regain their lost sense of smell.

Our deepening understanding of the different types of fat continues to present new ways to potentially manipulate metabolic processes for better health outcomes, and new research on an existing asthma drug has opened up a promising new pathway.
