"In a quarter of a second, this new CT scanner can take a perfect 3-D photo of your brain or heart. The underlying technology is nothing new, since CT scanners have been around for 40 years. But they've never been nearly this fast. "It's analogous to the shutter speed on a camera," says Scott Schubert, general manager of premium CT at GE Healthcare, whose Revolution CT is now pending approval from the FDA. "The faster the shutter speed on a camera, the more you're able to freeze moving objects.""

"OpenBCI is a low-cost, programmable, open-source EEG platform that gives anybody with a computer access to their brainwaves. Our vision is to realize the potential of the open-source movement to accelerate innovation in brain science through collaborative hardware and software development. Behind the many lines of code and circuit diagrams, OpenBCI has a growing community of scientists, engineers, designers, makers, and a whole bunch of other people who are interested in furthering our understanding of the brain. We feel that the biggest challenges in understanding what makes us who we are cannot be solved by a company, an institution, or even an entire field of science. Rather, we believe these discoveries will be made through an open forum of shared knowledge and concerted effort by people from many different disciplines. "

"Composé de deux bandes et de deux pédales détectrices, DrumPants détecte les tapes de la main de l'utilisateur pour ensuite les transmettre au boîtier duquel sortira le son composé. Contrairement à ce que pourrait laisser deviner son nom, le kit peut se porter sur n'importe quel vêtement, chaussures comprises, permettant à quiconque de créer son propre morceau avec son corps. « Je suis un batteur et mes amis également. Je suis constamment en train de voir des gens jouer sur leur pantalon ou leur volant de voiture, je me suis donc dit qu'ils devraient tous pouvoir composer de la vraie musique avec ces gestes là », explique Tyler Freeman. Ancien développeur freelance chez Google, Adobe et BandPage, il a d'abord conçu DrumPants comme une blague. C'était il y a six ans. Depuis, le co-fondateur s'est persuadé de la viabilité commerciale et technologique de son invention."

"La clé de voûte des solutions apportées par H4D est la création d'un outil technologique précurseur : la Consult-Station H4D. La cabine accompagne l'activité des médecins et des personnels paramédicaux. Il s'agit d'un outil de contrôle des paramètres biométriques, d'aide au diagnostic et d'orientation."

"In the Fablab Low Cost Prosthesis programme we develop the technology to produce a 'lower knee' prosthesis in line with the open innovation principles, so that end users, designers, researchers and manufacturers can arrive at product innovations by joint effort. The Fablab prosthesis programme has emerged as possible business case for the HONFablab in Jogyakarta, Indonesia. Fablab Yogyakarta could provide prostheses for two people per day. By doing so, it would empower the locals by creating new jobs and spread the orthopaedic knowledge."

"We have world-class dermatologists in the US, but limited access to their services. The average wait time to see a dermatologist is 38 days. Melanoma can metastasize in less than a month. This is a problem."

"a vision put forward by the Google co-founder Larry Page, who has argued that technology should be deployed wherever possible to free humans from drudgery and repetitive tasks."

"1. Solves a recurring problem for the person 2. Starts from the human, not the machine 3. Requests attention, does not demand it 4. Enhances human capabilities, does not replace them 5. Creates a net negative number of problems 6. Enables deep and broad connectivity 7. Serves the software 8. Weniger, aber breiter (Less but broader) 9. Capitalizes on existing behavior 10. Augments the things we love, and automates the things we don't"
