Drug injector may mean the end of needles!

Ion

Getting a shot at the doctor's office may become less painful in the not-too-distant future. MIT researchers have engineered a device that delivers a tiny, high-pressure jet of medicine through the skin without the use of a hypodermic needle. The device can be programmed to deliver a range of doses to various depths — an improvement over similar jet-injection systems that are now commercially available.

Google Self Driving Car Test

jackg105

Google announced its self-driving car project in 2010 to make driving safer, more enjoyable, and more efficient. Having safely completed over 200,000 miles of computer-led driving, Google wanted to share one of its favorite moments. Here's Steve, who joined Google for a special drive on a carefully programmed route to experience being behind the wheel in a whole new way. Google organized this test as a technical experiment, but think it's also a promising look at what autonomous technology may one day deliver if rigorous technology and safety standards can be met.
