Ultrathin temporary #electronic tattoos can now turn body blemishes into touch-sensitive #buttons, letting you #control your smartphone with your own wrinkles, freckles and other #skin features. People intuitively know the location of their own bumps and birthmarks, which makes them ideal locations for touch-sensitive buttons, says #Martin Weigel at Saarland University in Saarbrücken, #Germany, who has #led the #research. You could squeeze a freckle to #answer a #phone #call, or slide a #finger over your knuckles to change the volume of your music. Weigel and his colleagues at #Saarland University and #Google used #conductive ink to print wires and electrodes on temporary tattoo paper. The tattoos, which they call #SkinMarks, are thinner than the width of a #human hair. They are transferred onto the skin using water and last a #couple of days before #rubbing off. “We make use of the elastic properties of the skin, including bending and stretching,” says team member #Jürgen Steimle, also at Saarland University. By having the tattoos responsive to changes in the skin surface, they incorporate #multiple #commands at #one location.

#Tech #Cars #FT-4X #TOYOTA Toyota FT-4X concept designed for city and dirt Link Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/theworldbetw... Toyota's new concept, unveiled at the New York auto show, explores the idea of a compact SUV capable of going from an urban commute straight to offroad adventures. The concept was designed at Toyota's California studio, and the company specifically called out millennials living in the San Francisco Bay Area as a target audience. The FT-4X is roughly comparable in size to the Jeep Renegade. The step-side seems unnecessary, given the car's height, but it can help with stowing cargo on the roof. The interior is designed with versatility in mind. At the New York auto show unveiling, the concept was shown with no rear seats, although we can assume seats would be available. Link YouTube : NEW YORK (April 12, 2017) – It’s only natural. In the busyness of city-based work life there emerges a growing urge to “get away”. For millennial-aged professionals confined to city limits, oftentimes these getaways are unplanned, and are of the casual, less extreme kind. (No time for summiting a mountain – a drive to the scenic point will do!) It’s a four-wheel drive toolbox penned by Toyota’s Calty Design Research Inc. in Newport Beach, California. With its long list of unique functionalities and a Rugged Charm compact design, the FT-4X is the seamless conduit of popular Casualcore – rather than hardcore – outings by anyone, anytime. “As designers, we’re investing deep thought into the emotional connection with our cars,” said Calty President, Kevin Hunter. “The Toyota FT-4X is not simply a concept where style meets function; it is a thoughtful, charming and engaging experience that adds real pleasure and convenience to the journey. We focused on how a crossover vehicle can add fun and value to casual adventures both in and out of the city, thinking about how someone would use it, and what they would love to do with it.” THE EMERGENCE OF CASUALCORE EXPLORATION A shift from multiday, extreme, high-effort excursions to brief, unplanned, casual adventures is an overwhelming reality for Generation Y. Millennials are fond of the outdoors, but operate almost always indoors. They enjoy venturing into to new neighborhoods and national parks, but hardly plan ahead. Their countless interactions on social media bring inspiration. It is the busyness of their nonstop daily lives that pushes them past the precipice of “liking” a digital snapshot into the realm of creating their own, in reality. Their adventures begin curbside, in a parking structure, or in the depths of an underground garage. Dinner on the beach during a beautiful evening; tailgating with friends while listening to music; visiting a favorite trailhead for a run or dog walk; settling next to a campfire for an overnight desert stay – these are the types of quick escapes that an increasing number of young, career-minded urbanites hold dear. Always ready to go? They are – and so is the Toyota FT-4X. RUGGED CHARM PERSONA Casualcore adventures originate in the city. Knowing this, Calty’s designers instituted a Rugged Charm ethos when creating the FT-4X. Rugged Charm places value on simplicity, capability, durability, and Toyota lineage. Furthermore, it takes into account compact, sturdy dimensions, and a charming ubiquitous tactility of grips, handles, and controls (the notion of feeling a satisfying mechanical reaction to a user’s input). “You can really tell that we had a blast designing the FT-4X because it looks fun to use and fun to drive,” described Calty Studio Chief Designer, Ian Cartabiano. “I love this idea of mechanical satisfaction because while we’re living in today’s digital world, we took something that’s based on physical movements and made that a large part of what this vehicle is. We want everyone to interact with this car and feel a sense of delight and excitement.” Designers approached their work uncharacteristically. Rather than begin their styling processes at the nose or profile, they began at the rear. Why? In their months’ long research, they noticed that basecamp for Gen Y explorers was oftentimes the destination itself. Cherished experiences were had in and around this basecamp, usually at their vehicle’s tailgate or hatch. Small, yet strong outdoor activity gear inspired the FT-4X’s expressive looks. For its exterior, stylists imbued an X Theme throughout the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) C-Platform. Imagine this: At the center of a vertical X (which bows outward) is a door handle, or, in essence, the widest part of FT-4X (71.7 in.). This places the broadest area near the driver and passenger, creating a natural protective zone. At the rear, the bowed vertical X can be seen at the rear hatch, again placing the door handle at the center and creating a protective space.

#Tech #Ski #Electronic #Speediest Norwegians develop electronic ski bindings to speed up cross-country trails. Link Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/theworldbetw... Binding placement is important for staying fast while cross-country skiing and this electronic ski binding allows for those subtle adjustments without stopping. As any cross-country skier knows, there is a lot more to it than skiing up and down a set of snowy hills. By adjusting the bindings, skiers improve their grip going uphill or the glide going downhill. However, in order to adjust the binding, skiers have to take off their skis. That is not helpful if they are trying to make their movement more efficient Rottefella,one of Norway’s top binding developers, has teamed up with Semcon to create a new kind of electronic binding. While skiing, users can move the binding forward for grip and backward for glide. It is another way that Norwegians remain on the forefront of ski technology. More: Ski the slopes of Whistler Blackcomb with Destination BC’s 360-degree videos “The binding makes elite skiers more effective in the trail, but also increases skiing pleasure for ordinary ski enthusiasts who can enjoy better control and grip as they ski,” Semcon product manager Odd Oystein Ra said. “As a passionate skier and engineer, this has been a dream project for me.” To change the binding on the go, skiers operate a remote control built into a ski pole. Using Bluetooth, the remote control drives tiny motors in the binding to let it slide forward and back. Skiers can make an adjustment of up to two inches. While subtle, this change makes all the difference in performance. Currently, there is no price attached to the developing product. Rettefella and Semcon are working hard to ensure the new binding will hit the market in 2018. Every electronic binding will be produced directly in Norway. “Our extensive experience of product development in cross-country skiing and ski bindings combined with Semcon’s technical expertise has made it possible to create a groundbreaking new product,” Rottefella’s Manager of Research and Development Oyvar Svendsen said.

With the #Wakejet #electric #wakeboard, there’s no need for #waves, #wind, or a #boat... Link Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/theworldbetw... The Wakejet electric wakeboard turns wakeboarding into a solo sport, eliminating the need for a boat -- if you have enough discretionary cash at your disposal. Ask anyone who has ever tried wakeboarding, and they’ll probably tell you that it can be lot of fun. After all, the sport combines elements of waterskiing, surfing, and even snowboarding, allowing participants to skim along the surface of a body of water at high speeds. Traditionally, wakeboarding isn’t a solo sport, as it requires a boat to tow the rider along behind it. But a company called Radinn is looking to change that with the Wakejet Cruise, the world’s first electric wakeboard. The first Wakejet prototype was created in 2013 as a university project by a group of Swedish students. Radinn’s CEO recognized the potential in the device and immediately began assembling a team of mechanical and electrical engineers who could turn those early designs into a viable commercial product. It took them three years to achieve that goal, but the electric wakeboard finally went on sale in 2016. Powered by a 15-horsepower electric motor and controlled by a handheld remote, the Wakejet is surprisingly quiet as it zips across the water. The board is capable of hitting speeds of up to 28 mph, and will run for 30 minutes at top speed — and even longer at slower velocities. The Wakejet’s 48-volt battery requires two hours to fully recharge before hitting the water once again. The board itself is made out of carbon fiber and Kevlar, which helps keep weight down while still maintaining a high level of durability. As a result, the Wakejet weighs just 55 pounds, making it fairly easy to transport to and from the water. And like most other wakeboards, it is small enough to carry in a car or SUV without the need for a special rack. While the Wakejet provides plenty of freedom for riders, allowing them to board without the need for a tow boat, it doesn’t come cheap. Priced at about $16,000, this wakeboard is definitely a luxury item. But for wakeboarders who do have the discretionary income, the Wakejet can be purchased directly from Radinn’s website with a $1,500 deposit.
