Late last year, New Balance announced it was working on a limited edition sneaker with a 3D-printed midsole, which would be released sometime this April. Well it's April, and that sneaker, called the Zante Generate, will be available to purchase this week. Buying a pair won't be that easy though, because New Balance is only making 44 pairs, and you'll need a cool $400 to snag one of them. “New Balance is at the forefront of 3D printing and has been utilizing this exciting and innovative technology to customize product for our athletes for a number of years,” says New Balance President and CEO Robert DeMartini. “Our unique position as both a manufacturer and retailer allows us to bring the world’s first 3D printed running midsole to market. The Zante Generate demonstrates the strength of New Balance design and innovation and will allow consumers to own a piece of running technology history.” To print the midsole, New Balance used a "selective laser sinterin...

The unprecedented feat caps years of work by Elon Musk’s space company and follows a successful ground landing of a returning Falcon rocket in December.  Four previous attempts to land the rocket’s first stage on the ocean platform had failed. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket soared off its seaside launch pad in Florida on Friday, then turned around a minutes later and settled itself on a platform floating in the ocean. “We have a Falcon 9 aboard,” a crewman aboard the recovery ship radioed to SpaceX Mission Control. A live video of the landing, broadcast on NASA TV, showed the Falcon first-stage descending vertically through clear skies then slowing, with its four landing legs extended, and gently settling itself down on the platform. A minute later, the Dragon cargo ship that the rocket had boosted toward space separated from the Falcon’s upper stage and began a 2.5 day trip to the International Space Station. SpaceX has said being able to land its rockets on the ...

We already know that Samsung is working on a foldable phone (internally dubbed Project Valley), and we've also seen some possible designs. Last we heard, there were rumors of it launching in January this year - that obviously didn't happen. Now, it looks like the device won't be coming this year. A new report from Samsung's home country of South Korea is claiming that the company will start mass-producing foldable displays by end of this year, with foldable smartphones arriving next year. Numerous reports over the years have suggested that Samsung is working on a foldable smartphone. In fact, the company even has a patent that describes how it might be able to achieve such a feat. And we don’t mean a smartphone like the Kyocera Echo, which was more of a Nintendo 3DS-style device, but a device that actually folds. Now, a new report out of Korea suggests that Samsung is working on a tablet/smartphone hybrid, dubbed a “smartlet.” According to a report...

WhatsApp activated end to end encrypted messaging for over a billion users. Here’s an explainer Video & some pointers on the whats, whys and hows. Text Excerpts from a Hindustan Times report. WhatsApp has extended the option of communicating over the application without being eavesdropped on. The encryption feature has been developed by the messaging giant with support from Open Whisper Systems, the makers of another popular messaging app, Signal. This means, messages sent using the app will be end-to-end encrypted: Once a message leaves the sender’s phone, it is turned into a series of numbers and alphabets that only the intended receiver’s phone can decipher. So what does it do, why does it matter, and what is not encrypted? 1. What does end to end encryption do: In a blog post, the Facebook-owned company explains: “The idea is simple: When you send a message, the only person who can read it is the person or group chat that you send that message to. No one ...

If you find yourself tapping your hand to a beat while sitting at your desk, in the car or on park bench, a high-tech glove might be just the gadget to help you turn the tunes in your head into music you can record. The glove, called the Remidi T8 wearable instrument, is loaded with pressure-sensitive sensors along the fingerprints and palm.

Also it can be thought of as a wearable MIDI controller referring to the music syn...

Yes you heard it right. The technology named "Li-Fi" is 100 times faster than Wi-Fi. Light Fidelity(Li-Fi) is a bidirectional, high speed and fully networked wireless communication technology similar to Wi-Fi. The term was coined by Harald Haas and is a form of visible light communications and a subset of optical wireless communication (OWC) and could be a complement to RF communication (Wi-Fi or Cellular network), or even a replacement in contexts of data broadcasting. It is so far measured to be about 100 times faster than some Wi-Fi implementations, reaching speeds of 224 gigabits per second. It is wireless and uses Visible light communication or infra-red and near ultraviolet(instead of radio frequency waves) spectrum, part of optical wireless communications technology, which carries much more information, and has been proposed as a solution to RF-bandwidth limitations.This OWC technology uses light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a medium to deliv...
