Indiana University biologists claim to have found a quicker, cheaper, cleaner way to increase production in bioethanol-producing microbes using nitrogen gas. This could replace chemical fertilizers and make the cost of cellulose ethanol competitive with that of corn ethanol and gasoline.

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed an innovative keyboard that can accurately identify users based on their typing patterns. Not only that, the device can power itself by harvesting the static electricity on your fingertips.

For long-time Formula One fans, the combination of McLaren and Honda will bring back fond memories of the epic battles shared by Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna. Now the McLaren-Honda combination is back, with McLaren's 2015 chassis to be powered by Honda's RA615H power unit.

On its third attempt, NASA has successfully launched its Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite atop a United Launch Alliance Delta 2 rocket. The orbiter is designed to take high resolution moisture maps on a global scale, mapping the entire planet in the space of only two to three days.

A-Audio sent us two pairs of its latest headphones to review, its Legacy wired headphones and the Icon Bluetooth headphones. Here's our look at both models and how they performed.

We've certainly seen a lot of running shoes with shock-absorbing cushions in the soles, that are designed to absorb energy on the downstep and then release it on the upstep. The Enko shoe, however, takes that concept a step farther – it incorporates two actual coil-sprung shocks on each shoe.

A peek behind the scenes at the world's leading performance electric motorcycle company. Gizmag's Loz Blain visited Zero's head office outside Santa Cruz, California to talk about batteries, production lines, the 2015 Zero range and how America's fast-charge infrastructure is letting riders down.

The Raspberry Pi has been responsible for kickstarting a small revolution in DIY electronics, and now there's a new model on sale. The Raspberry Pi 2 Model B offers a host of performance improvements over the Model B+ edition released last year, though the price remains the same at US$35.
