USB Electronic Key Impressioner

We have been seeing an increase in devices using USB lately, but now what Steve Randall and his friend Ted Schwarzkopf recently reveled may just turn out to be a boon for Locksmiths or thieves!?

The Electronic key Impressioner or EKI. 
It is a prototype device which electronically maps the inside details of a lock using a scanning tool, it then sends information about the locks pattern to a computer via USB. A computer program interprets the pattern and comes up with a key code, depending on the details of the car you have entered before hand. Once you have the code a key cutting machine can use it to punch the key accordingly without having to wait for hours or days.

Photonic Fence: Laser system to kill mosquitoes

Mosquitoes are a problem which people  all across the world have to deal with.
A staggering 250 million people around the world are affected by Malaria every year and 1 million people die due to it. Despite so many attempts to eradicate malaria all attempts have failed. Mosquitoes have troubled humans since human existence and have developed resistance from a lot of repellents we have used over years. The best way to stay away from mosquitoes have been the low tech simple nets. But in this high tech world that's not the way to solve such a problem. So now Intellectual Ventures Lab has come up with a great solution to the problem,

The Photonic fence.

The Photonic fence is a laser system that detects mosquitoes and shoots them down from a distance. Its designed/made out of inexpensive components present in laser printers, camcorders, Blu-ray disc writers and video game consoles which makes it even more cool.

After making Search faster Google to speed up broadband speeds

Google is a company well know for its high speed search engine and innovative products. But this time Google has crossed its software lines and now wants to experiment with ultra high speed fiber optic broadband connection. The speed which Google wants to provide is an astonishing 1 gigabyte /sec or 1Gbps, which is around a hundred times faster then the average American house hold connection. Google has not yet decided where it will set up the infrastructure for it and is calling cities and communities across the US (No info. about international plans yet) to apply for it. Its plans to offer it on a competitive price and initially provide service to 50,000 and then upto 500,000 people.

By doing this Google wants to test online applications which require high speed connections and develop new technology for it. Google will later operate open access network and share the network with other service providers.
