A smart ring with a tiny camera lets users point and click to control home devices January, 2025
Researchers have developed IRIS, a smart ring that allows users to point and click to control smart devices. The prototype Bluetooth ring contains a small camera which sends an image of the selected device to the user's phone. The user can control the device clicking a small button or -- for devices with gradient controls, […]
New fingerprint mass spectrometry method paves the way to solving the proteome October, 2024
A new data-driven technique, called fingerprint mass spectrometry, provides a method for measuring the mass of individual proteins using nanoscale devices.
AI promises to ramp up PCR tests for faster DNA diagnostics and forensics September, 2024
Promising new inroads into critical DNA testing has been forecast by experts who have applied machine learning to DNA profiling. From medical diagnostics to forensic tests and national security, PCR (polymerase chain reaction) DNA profiling has revolutionised high-throughput sampling this century -- but little has changed since it was developed in the 1980s.
New method for fingerprint analysis holds great promise September, 2024
Overlapping and weak fingerprints pose challenges in criminal cases. A new study offers a solution and brings hope for using chemical residues in fingerprints for personal profiling.
How to catch a criminal using their 'skin shedder' profile August, 2024
A pioneering new DNA forensics technique is looking for a reliable method to measure a suspect's individual level of natural shedding of skin and other cells to add to, and compare with, evidence collected at crime scenes. Using a novel technique of cell staining, forensic science experts have tested 100 people to confirm how people […]
Scientists develop new artificial intelligence method to create material 'fingerprints' July, 2024
Researchers have developed a new technique that pairs artificial intelligence and X-ray science.
VR may pose privacy risks for kids: A new study finds parents aren't as worried as they should be May, 2024
New research finds that, while an increasing number of minors are using virtual reality (VR) apps, not many parents recognize the extent of the security and privacy risks that are specific to VR technologies. The study also found that few parents are taking active steps to address those security and privacy issues, such as using […]
New simpler and cost-effective forensics test helps identify touch DNA March, 2024
Research has found a less expensive and easier to use test to learn more about forensic touch DNA. This research has important implications for forensic investigations and being able to identify DNA from a primary contact -- someone who may have committed the crime -- as well as secondary DNA that was inadvertently and indirectly […]
This tiny, tamper-proof ID tag can authenticate almost anything February, 2024
A cryptographic tag uses terahertz waves to authenticate items by recognizing the unique pattern of microscopic metal particles that are mixed into the glue that sticks the tag to the item's surface.
A sleeker facial recognition technology tested on Michelangelo's David February, 2024
Many people are familiar with facial recognition systems that unlock smartphones and game systems or allow access to our bank accounts online. But the current technology can require boxy projectors and lenses. Now, researchers report on a sleeker 3D surface imaging system with flatter, simplified optics. In proof-of-concept demonstrations, the new system recognized the face […]
