1. A new camera developed at MIT uses laser technology to see objects hidden around corners by firing photons that bounce around and return to the lens, allowing reconstruction of hidden objects. 2. A KAIST professor has invented a way to paint grass onto surfaces using a roller coated in a paste containing grass seeds, fertilizer and adhesive that allows the grass to grow for up to six months. 3. Modularis demonstrated a Windows 8 app that can remotely control a full-sized police car over the cloud, opening doors and controlling lights and sirens to showcase how apps can control vehicles.

- 1. WEEKLY INNOVATION REPORT MARCH 2012 ? 23 Leave a Voicemail on the Wall Never Miss a Call with Vibrating Tattoos The 10-Cent Malaria and HIV Test Record Me is a new way to leave Nokia recently filed a patent for a Researchers at the University of messages for members of your piece of fabric that can alert you Texas at Austin have created an household. Instead of leaving sticky when you have a phone call. The alternative to traditional malaria notes or magnets on the fridge, you fabric supposedly will be able to and HIV lab tests. They have created can simply record your message right attach to your skin and, using haptic a paper sensor, similar to those onto the device. Users just twist the technology, vibrate when you are typically found in at-home device to one of 12 available slots receiving a phone call. Similar to the pregnancy kits, that uses origami and push the button to record. Once features in iOS 5, users will also be style folding. By folding the sensor, the message is recorded, users just able to set different vibrations for it is able to perform more push the button again to save their different people. Nokia also complicated testing. Using similar message. There is a glowing light to patented the idea of a magnetic ink functions as those found in at-home indicate a new message is waiting that can be tattooed onto an pregnancy tests, the sensor will and deleting messages is as easy as individual and work in very much the simply change colors to indicate the How would you reinvent a holding down the button after it has How would you rethink the same way.

The Camera That Can See Around Corners Paint Your Walls with Grass Meet the New RoboCop Car Scientists at MIT have created a Professor Sangmin Bae of KAIST has Modularis recently created and camera with the ability to see come up with a way to paint grass demoed an app for Windows 8 that objects hidden around corners. The onto any surface. The users simply can control a full-sized police car. camera fires a laser, which, when it put their seed of choice inside the The app was created for the hits a surface, scatters photons in roller, then roll it in the nutrition Worldwide Public Safety Symposium every direction. These photons then paste, which is made from water, and is able to control the vehicle continue to scatter and break apart fertilizer, pulp and a natural using the cloud. The app has the even more until some reach back to adhesive. Finally the substance is functionality to be able to control the camera lens. The camera then rolled onto the surface of choice and all aspects of the car, from sirens uses formulas to rebuild the object left to grow. Possible uses discussed and lights to opening and closing around the corner using the time are graffiti that will fade long before doors.
