Imagine a world where blindness and deafness can be reversed. Or never forgetting a name, face, or date. Being able to augment the brainpower we're born with to offload memories and correct human maladies. That's what Elon Musk and the team at Neuralink are setting out to do, but is it the future of
From smartphones and laptops to the rapidly growing EV market, we need an incredible amount of lithium ion batteries to make it all work. Materials like lithium are difficult and time consuming to mine and extract ... and can have a major impact on the environment. Can nanotechnology solve our lithi
With a global population that's expected to hit 9.7 billion by 2050 and have less arable land to grow food on, what do we do? How about putting robots, AI, and some really cool technology to work to grow food in three dimensions? Let's take a look at the future of food and the growth of vertical far
Imagine a future where every home, office or building is painted with solar panels and its bricks operate as batteries thanks to nanotechnology. There's a lot of promise, but what is nanotechnology? And is it more science fiction than fact?
The appeal of Carbon Nanotubes is their potential to dramatically improve energy storage and renewable energy... a topic that scientists have been attempting to tackle for decades. As it turns out, Carbon nanotubes can be easily mass-produced already, so why haven’t we seen the carbon nanotube revol
Thorium is often held up as one of the best paths forward for achieving a mix of cheap, clean energy for our grid. Even former presidential candidate Andrew Yang was pushing for Thorium reactors along with wind and solar. So what is it? Why are there so many people excited about it? And is it really
Ever since it was first discovered in 2004, graphene has been hailed as one of the most important breakthroughs in materials since the plastics revolution more than a century ago. The early predictions were that graphene would almost immediately enable the kinds of products and technologies that we’
Why is SpaceX making Starlink? If you’re watching this video, that means you have an internet connection, although you may live in an area with limited providers or network speeds. Still having internet accessibility can improve everything from entertainment, to work, to education, and health care.
It's the holy grail for the ultimate clean energy power source. Virtually limitless clean power that’s fueled by sea water, and is much safer than the nuclear fission reactors that we have today. What’s not to like? Perhaps that it's always billed as being "30 years away." With all of the breakthrou
There’s been a lot of hype around solid state batteries for years now, but where do things stand today? And how much longer do we have to wait before seeing solid state batteries take hold in the technology we use every day? Let's take a look at the latest research, lithium ion batteries, and John B
EV wireless charging is going to power the future of autonomous vehicles. I had a chance to visit WiTricity in Watertown, MA to talk about their wireless electric vehicle charging technology, how it can be used, and when we can expect it to hit the market.
Apple Watch Series 5 has saved lives. Wearable technology, like the Apple Watch can have a profound impact on our lives ... and even save them. There's so much potential with the future of of wearable technology in healthcare. I have a personal story around that too. And it’s one of the reasons why
