Lead Free Solder Lead is dangerous, but a really useful product when it comes to Soldering. The heavy metal is a big source of pollution in soil and ground water tables due to electronics being tossed in landfills, and is a toxic substance in e-waste dumps. But there is hope, Yale researchers have come up with a new soldering material that could eliminate lead in this area of electronics as well, using... 

I remember having seen old generation watches, that powered themselves based on movement of your hand. Today, these old technologies are getting back into demand for good. Take for example this concept from designers Song Teaho and Hyejin Lee. They figured out a way to charge cellphone batteries with a twirl. Twirl battery power It is a simple principle where you twirl things around your fingers and...
