(06/03/09) The data eyeglasses can read from the engineer’s eyes which details he needs to see on the building plans. A CMOS chip with an eye tracker in the microdisplay makes this possible. The eyeglasses are connected to a PDA, display information and respond to commands.See less

(05/29/09) To mark the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing, PM interviews everyone involved from liftoff to splashdown. Check back all month long for more Apollo coverage. * Apollo Anniversary * Off-Road Road Trip * Rebuild America * Subscribe Now! 2009 PM Car Makeover Eco-Muscle Almost everyone agrees that hybrid cars are the next big step on our way to an all-electric future. But what if we use two parallel powertrains, gas and electric, to drive a full size car? That way, we can offer the muscular V8 performance that buyers crave, yet still produce zero emissions around town.See less

(05/29/09) Looking to make a real impression the next time you have guests over? This over-the-top LED shower head will definitely get their attention when they go to hop in the shower. Crosswater’s RIO shower head is loaded with 96 computer-controlled LEDs in red, green and blue clusters so they can be mixed to create just about any color in the spectrum. Each one is focused to illuminate a powerful stream of water coming out of the 15-inch diameter shower head’s hundreds of needle-thin jets. Now while this thing looks really cool, and I’d love to take a shower under one of these, I think I’ll have to pass for now. You see, the RIO retails for the insane price of £2799 (about $4454 USD). I could probably get a entire bathroom gut-remodeled for that much coin. If you’d rather keep that money you’ve been saving for junior’s college fund, you could always grab this slightly less refined LED shower head over at ThinkGeek for just $49.99.See less

(05/29/09) With skyscrapers becoming a norm in our urban livelihood, safety within those high-rise buildings remains a question. We’ve seen people jump out of the World Trade Center in the unfortunate 9/11, and since the security has been beefed up so should the safety considerations, I guess. Kevin Stone sensed the issue, and in consideration he has designed the Rescue Reel, a device to help people vacate skyscrapers in case of emergencies. Based on the concept of a fishing reel, the device is a simple harness to lower people to the ground, letting the individual plan his own escape, unless he is buckled in the pressure. The user is expected to open a small container, which is to be hooked to some steady anchor, on support of which the user can slip into a one size fits all harness, automatically controlled centrifugal braking to manage the descent. The device along with the automatic braking system that takes less than four minutes to climb down a 100 story building also has a manual backup...See less
