Self healing circuits
The interesting fact about consumer products is that we often know what is going to be in the future; new scientific advancements often take time to propagate through to the consumer market. However, we often do not know which features or technologies will take prevalence or in what form. Marketing and aesthetic design is just as important as technology. A new technology developed recently is self healing circuits developed by researchers Scott White, Nancy Sottos, and Jeffery Moore, at the University of Illinois. Once a circuit connection is broken, these connections self heal, with a majority of broken connections retaining the original conductivity. These could be very useful in reducing costs of circuits as well as increasing redundancy. The circuitry is still a long way until it is develops and becomes useful on the consumer market, but it is promising in that we may have very redundant circuits in the future.

Space X decides on another launch
With the Space Shuttle gone, United States astronauts are going to need another mechanism to deliver their goods up to the International Space Station. Recently, this has been done using Russian rockets. However, NASA may soon have another option: the Dragon Capsule riding on top of a Falcon 9 rocket developed by Space X. Traditionally, satellites and rockets carrying them into space have been reliant on government technology, but the development of a space industry has changed that. Space X distinguished itself as one of the first companies to develop rockets capable of going into orbit. Recently, it has been testing its Dragon Space Capsule. The ultimate goal of this is to sign a deal with NASA to ferry astronauts and cargo to the space station. On Feb. 7, a Space X rocket will launch from Cape Canaveral. Its cargo will be a Dragon Capsule which will have the task of docking with the International Space Station. If successful, this will mark another milestone for the space industry.

NYU Medical Center Get’s Some New Technology
NYU Medical Center is bringing the future of healthcare to today. They are switching from paper to a whole digital system. They are using new technology from EPIC and Patient Secure. Patient Secure is when they use biometric identification technology. You place your palm on the scanner and then light (almost infrared) scans your veins and maps your blood flow. They will also take your photo and from there it goes into there system. So no more filling out long paperwork, every tim you visit. All they have to do is scan your hand. This system will also help them minimize misidentification and having more than one record. All in all it looks like a win-win for everyone. You can see the press release below and a ABC News Segment about the new Patient Identification at NYU Langone.
ABC News Segment About Patient Secure At NYU Langone
Patient Identification “In The Palm of Your Hand”
NYU Langone First Hospital in Northeast to Use Near Infrared Palm Scanning Technology to Identify Patients
June 14, 2011 – 10:00amHelps Ensure the Right Care for the Right Patient, Prevent Medical Identity Theft
and Reduce Administrative HasslesNYU Langone Medical Center announced today that it is the first medical center in the Northeast to use PatientSecure™ – a cutting-edge biometric technology – to identify patients. Utilizing near infrared light to map an image of the blood-flow pattern through the veins in a person’s palm, the digital palm image is converted into a unique patient identifier that interfaces with the medical center’s electronic health record system.
“Vein patterns are 100 times more unique than fingerprints,” said Bernard A. Birnbaum, MD, senior vice president and vice dean, chief of hospital operations at NYU Langone. “As a result, PatientSecure provides a safe, secure, easy and fast way for our patients to register for care at the medical center. It not only protects privacy and enhances quality, but will transform the patient experience.”
The advanced technology of PatientSecure helps to ensure each patient is correctly “linked” to the right medical record, a task which is not always as straightforward as it sounds. For example, at the medical center alone, two or more patients share the same first and last names more than 125,000 times. As a result, with PatientSecure a patient simply places his or her hand on a small black box and their unique identifying palm portrait automatically registers them and accesses his or her electronic health record, reducing the chances of misidentification and minimizing the need to present other identifying information after initial enrollment, such as a driver’s license or Social Security number.
Streamlining the traditionally cumbersome registration process also helps enhance the overall patient experience from the moment the patient walks in the door and provides added protection from medical identity theft because patients no longer need to share personal identifying information.
NYU Langone piloted the palm scanning technology last month at their Internal Medicine Associates faculty group practice. Following the recent hospital implementation More than 5,000 patients embraced PatientSecure last week alone, and the numbers continue to rise.
“This technology makes you feel like a VIP. You just put your palm on the scanner and you’re done registering at your doctor’s office, no clipboard, no hassle of paperwork to check in, plus, it’s absolutely secure,” said Michael Baldwin, 55, a patient at NYU Langone. “It’s immediate and instantaneous. Never in my life have I experienced health care like this before. NYU Langone’s100 percent integrated healthcare system is like a small city that’s all connected.”
In addition, if a patient without identification arrives at the medical center unconscious or unable to communicate, PatientSecure can be a lifesaving tool that quickly identifies the individual, opens his or her electronic health record and alerts medical professionals to crucial information, including medical history, allergies and current medications.
Registration using PatientSecure is now available for inpatient registration at the medical centers three hospitals – Tisch Hospital, the Hospital for Joint Diseases and the Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine. It is also available for outpatient services at the medical center, including radiology and lab tests, as well as at a growing number of physician offices affiliated with NYU Langone. There is no cost to patients to participate in PatientSecure.

A Kings Toilet
Kholer (the toilet maker) has now made a new toilet. The Kholer Numi is a smart toilet that trumps the average toilet in every aspect except price. What makes this toilet expensive and “super” is its ability to customize it. The toilet is capable of adjusting seat position, water temperature and pressure, ambient lighting, and audio. The toilet not only has built-in speakers, but also has an FM radio and an audio input jack that lets you put in your mp3 device. The toilet also has a heated seat, and a foot warmer. The toilet automatically raises the seat when you walk by, and when u walk away it automatically flushes. The Numi will cost $6,400. With that you will get the toilet and a remote control with a touch-screen that lets you adjust all of the settings to your liking. No matter how much you pay for a toilet you still use it for the same purpose.
