africa’s total soil fertility has declined over time, mostly because of excessive chemical fertilizer use, which has accelerated acidification.

legume technology has spent the last 20 years building bacterial and fungal microbial biofertilizers to fight that issue. these biofertilizers essentially create natural alternatives to chemical fertilizers by capturing nitrogen from the air and keeping it in the soil for the crops to absorb.

new warehouse robot could revolutionize efficiency

mytra’s innovative system lessens the need for forklifts, maximizes storage space and automates heavy-lifting tasks.

by rick richardson
technology this week

the warehouses of the world are surprisingly empty spaces. there’s a lot of material in these vital nodes of the complex global commodities of our transportation system, but there’s also a lot of vacant space on the floor between their racks. the space is there to make room for the forklift, the workhorse of the warehouse, which must have room to maneuver when lifting and carrying pallets loaded with hundreds or thousands of pounds of merchandise. a forklift needs plenty of space and a professional driver to do a mundane but dangerous task.

can science save lives with solar power?

by rick richardson
technology this week

pengju li and his colleagues at the university of chicago have created a wireless, ultrathin pacemaker that utilizes light similarly to a solar panel. because it conforms to the shape of the heart, its design reduces interference with the heart’s normal function while simultaneously eliminating the need for batteries. their findings, just released in nature, provide a novel strategy for heart pacing and other therapies requiring electrical stimulation.

medical devices called pacemakers are inserted into the body to control cardiac rhythms. they are comprised of battery-operated electrical circuits with leads that are fixed to the heart muscle to stimulate it. leads, however, can break and cause tissue damage. once implanted, the leads’ position cannot be altered, which restricts access to various cardiac areas. because they use stiff iron electrodes, pacemakers could also cause tissue injury when they are used to regulate arrhythmia or to restart the heart after surgery.

by rick richardson
technology this week

your computer or tablet screen can easily be visually hacked in public, which allows someone to steal private information. plastic screen coverings are one technique to stop this from happening, as they make it harder for someone to view the document unless they are directly in front of it. microsoft might develop a technology that encrypts text graphically as you read it.

a recent microsoft patent describes a system that encrypts a document so that only the reader can decipher it. the approach encrypts the document by changing the letters in the text section of the original document. the document is then shown in a private mode using an alpha-blended version that combines the encoded and original copies of the text. next, the system uses eye tracking to show the user the decoded portion of the document at their fixation point and the encoded version at the periphery of their field of vision.
