Meet the “motion microscope,” a video-processing tool that plays up tiny changes in motion and color impossible to see with the naked eye. Video researcher Michael Rubinstein plays us clip after jaw-dropping clip showing how this tech can track an individual’s pulse and heartbeat simply from a piece of footage. Watch him recreate a conversation by amplifying the movements from sound waves bouncing off a bag of chips. The wow-inspiring and sinister applications of this tech you have to see to believe.

Xiaomi latest tech product isn't likely to have Apple fans baying and cursing about patents. That's because it is an air purifier.

Over the past few years, technology has given educators and the parents of autistic children tools they could never have imagined before. Mobile apps and..

Our research on innovation by companies in China shows that there are at least eight types of innovation, and that China’s success to date has been built much more on non-technology types of innovation.

The method of creating innovation is to discover, create, and develop ideas, to refine them into useful forms, and to use them to earn profits, increase efficiency, and/or reduce costs.  Here we focus on how to do that, the process of innovation. The trick to making it work is knowing what’s supposed happen inside the funnel. In the quest for innovation it’s obvious that many ideas at the input stage become a few completed, useful innovations at the output stage, so people readily visualize the innovation process as a funnel:  lots of ideas come in

We know the idea of a core competency is dead, or dying, but what will replace it? Here are six ideas that matter for how we think about innovation in future.

New technology uses tiny speakers to emit waves of ultrasound to displace the air around a projected 3D object, creating the sensation of touch.
