Ring Weeder is designed to make weeding by hand quicker and more precise. It slips over the user's index finger and allows for precision weed pulling all the way down to the root.

Researchers at the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich have designed a sophisticated computer system that is comparable in size, speed and energy consumption to the human brain.

On Monday, at a press conference in London, a lab-grown burger was served up for its first public tasting. The burger cost a cool €250,000 (about US$330,000) to produce and is intended to help find new ways to increase meat production while reducing pressure on the environment.

A new system to detect invisible and extremely difficult to detect clear-air turbulence (CAT) is currently being tested as part of a European joint project called DELICAT (Demonstration of LIDAR based CAT detection).

There is a breed of campers that can’t stand to be separated from their technology, be it digital music, videos, tablet computers, drink blenders, etc. For them, there's a new generation of high-tech tents wired to power all the latest portable gadgetry.

By juxtaposing two images taken from the same angle but with different focus depths, Harvard researchers have found a way to create 3D images from a stationary camera or microscope with a single lens. The technique has potential for microscopy and 3D movies.

Today in New York, LG unveiled its latest flagship, the G2. Button placement may not help to sell many smartphones, but LG's outside-of-the-box thinking does make sense.

Scientists at TU Darmstadt have used electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) to stop light in a crystal and store information for up to one minute, in what could be an important step toward better optical and quantum computers.

Work has been completed on Christchurch's temporary Cardboard Cathedral designed by Japanese architect Shigeru Ban.

This year is shaping up to be a great one for Android phones. So how does Motorola's first phone created from start to finish under Google's ownership fit in with the pack? Let's compare its specs and features with the HTC One, which we already know is one of the best smartphones of 2013.

Last November, we heard about Lehmann Aviation’s LA100, a small and fully autonomous UAV designed to capture aerial images with a user-supplied GoPro camera. Now the French company is offering two new models that go farther and stay in the air longer.

The research team responsible for the SLIPS technology that creates the slipperiest known synthetic surface has improved upon their technology. By now making it transparent and more durable, it now has potential for creating scratch-resistant lenses and self-cleaning windows and solar panels.
