This projection method transfers a 3-dimentional sphere into a 2-dimensional rectangle while maintaining areas proportions. Using this method, the "AuthaGraph world map" succeeds in transferring an image of the spherical Earth to a flat surface while evenly distributing distortion. An architect, Hajime Narukawa and his collaborators invented it in 1999. AuthaGraph world map can be tiled in any directions without visible seams. From this map-tiling, a new world map with triangular, rectangular or parallelogram's outline can be framed out with various regions at its center. This map provides a perspective on decentralized world views. Just as the center of global politics, economy and culture is shifted and decentralized, this map tries to reflect such new global vision in the 21st century.

THE COPHENHAGEN WHEEL  Smart, responsive and elegant, the Copenhagen Wheel is a new emblemfor urban mobility. It transforms ordinary bicycles quickly into hybrid e-bikes that alsofunction as mobile sensing units. The Copenhagen Wheel allows you to capturethe energy dissipated while cycling and braking and save it for when you need a bit of a boost. It also maps pollution levels, traffic congestion,and road conditions in real-time.  The Copenhagen Wheel will be unveiled on December 15 at the COP15United Nations Climate Conference. 

IBM researchers have invented a low-cost and relatively simple fabrication tool capable of reliably creating features as small as 15 nanometers. To show off the tool, the researchers at IBM's Zurich lab made a three-dimensional map of the Earth so small that 1,000 of them would fit onto a single grain of salt.

Key Features of Indoor Navigation, Magnetic Positioning and Indoor Localization Technologies Indoor positioning is the most commonly used umbrella term which includes all of these 'indoor GPS' technologies. However, when we observe closely and look at the technological platform they thrive on, the rationale for using these varied terms to describe them individually becomes self-explanatory. All these three types refer to technologies adopted by large facilities to help them locate objects, spaces, or people inside the facility where the satellite enabled Global Positioning System (GPS) does not work due to the infrastructural elements such as walls, cabin, glass etc. In order to counter this challenge, indoor positioning systems (IPS) use wide arrays of platforms to enable users locate and navigate within a facility. For the management team of the facility, it helps in efficient facility management as users have the flexibility to locate, navigate and way find.
