WHAT IS IMicro
Also known as the Fingertip Microscope is a portable microscope that makes it
possible for you to have a look at small things while on the go. This one of a
kind device has a comparable optical performance that is quite too similar to
those found in a professional microscope. You will, get the same performance
but a lesser cost since you are only using your smartphone.

FEATURES
*Very high magnification power
*Minimal distortion
*High resolution power
*Extremely low profile

Is a tiny wearable Al device, that instantly recognizes
colleagues, clients and business contacts, tells you when you
last saw them and in what context, by sending notification to
your phone or smartwatch through a free companion app.
COFFEE POWER

The Coffee Car Mark 1 percolated into existence a couple years ago when a team of
engineers hacked an old Volkswagen Scirocco to run on gasification, a century-old
technology that converts carbon-containing substances into energy. The back of the
auto is modified with what at first glance looks to be a moonshine still, complete
with a charcoal stove stocked with pellets made from used coffee grounds. The heat
from the stove causes the acrid material to break down and release hydrogen, which
is routed through a cooling system and a filter that removes tar. The explosive gas
eventually winds up powering pistons to move the car forward a significant distance
– in 2010, the Coffee Car performed a history-making journey from London to
Manchester.
Having proven coffee's worth as a fuel for long road trips, the engineers (who are led
by a guy named, wonderfully, Bacon) next attempted to prove it could make a car
zoom along as fast as a gasoline-powered ride. Thus the Coffee Car Mark 2 was born
from the chassis of a Ford pick-up, looking like a Giant Peapod delivery truck with
all the coffee-bean decals adorning its sides. When it's gearing up for operation, the
Mark 2 smokes like a chimney – I assume that's normal – leaving a fluffy cloud of
exhaust that probably smells nothing like fresh-brewed coffee. But it has done what
its inventors asked of it, setting a new speed record last week of 65 mph at an airfield
near Manchester.
Bacon's team is spending the coming weeks driving their coffee machine around the
U.K. to promote Co-operative Food, a British fair-trade organization. The vehicle is
said to travel about 55 miles on the power of a 22-pound sack of grounds, so no
doubt the engineers will be wired to the gills trying to drink enough joe to keep their
engine from dying. (I guess they could also just pick it up from the trash behind
coffee shops, but that doesn't sound as fun.) As to why they're doing this, they say:
The reason behind doing a land speed record is to show how the old gasification
technology renowned in its day for being rather slow although very useful in
wartime Europe , can with modern engineering become something quite capable.
Furthermore we get a caffeine kick producing energy from a waste product. Roll on
