At last, Apple has made a stylus for their new giant iPad Pro. It seems to work beautifully. Here’s the ad that describes it.
With iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, we’re introducing an entirely new dimension of interaction. For the first time, iPhone recognizes force. 3D Touch is the next generation of Multi-Touch. It’s a clear example of how hardware and software designed together can create a singular experience.
We developed a robot that creates robots.
Scientists from the University of Cambridge have built a mother robot that independently builds its own children and then tests their performance to inform the design of the next generation. By analyzing the data it collects from observing the child, the mother robot ensures that preferential traits are passed down to the next iteration, while letting weaknesses fall by the wayside.
“We developed a robot that creates robots. And basically we have a mother robot that combines active and passive modules using glue to make other children robots. And these robots, as the mother creates them and puts them to work, she evaluates how they’re behaving and she uses the data from this behavior to create the next generation of robots,” explained Andre Rosendo, who worked on the project at the University’s Department of Engineering.

Scientists in the United States said Tuesday they had created a tiny implant which, in mice for now, captures cancer cells spreading through the body.
Cells moving from the original cancer site to infect other organs in a stealthy process called metastasis are usually detected too late to save a patient’s life.
Calorie restriction (CR) is big news in the anti-aging world, but how effective is it really? The evidence might be more mixed than you think.
NASA and Boeing have released a little teaser on their newest spacecraft, the CST-100 Starliner, which will be built and tested at Kennedy Space Center and hopefully, eventually taxi people to space.
Imagine touring space inside one of these awesome pods in the future. The video below highlights some features of the Starliner.
