Going back for it would've meant several hours extra driving time, so using a little quick thinking and a huge amount of luck he pulled up to the U.S. border holding an iPad showing a full-sized image of his passport that he had taken five years previous and had saved to a Dropbox folder. After what must have been a nerve-racking five minutes while border officials looked over the document, Reisch was amazingly allowed through into Vermont, even receiving a "Happy Holidays" from the border officer for the trouble. <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/ipad-passport/21029/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/radar-train-subway-platforms/21028/">Radar system could detect people who fall onto train tracks</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></p> <p><em>15:42 January 6, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/radar-train-subway-platforms/21028/#comments">7 Comments</a> </p> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/radar-train-subway-platforms/21028/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/railwayradar.png" title="A new radar system could be used to detect and identify objects that fall onto train track..." alt="A new radar system could be used to detect and identify objects that fall onto train track..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Although you may never have seen it happen yourself, it isn&#8217;t all that uncommon for large objects &#8211; including people &#8211; to fall onto the tracks at subway or railway platforms. While security personnel viewing CCTV feeds will catch some of these accidents, the cameras&#8217; shots are sometimes obscured by people, poor lighting, or even the trains themselves. The results can range from lengthy delays in rail service, to fatalities. Now, however, researchers working on a project for the Universit&#233; Lille Nord de France have developed a system that uses radar to automatically detect and identify objects that fall onto the tracks. When installed at a platform, the system could then shut off power to the tracks, and notify oncoming trains. <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/radar-train-subway-platforms/21028/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/dynamic-luminous-ceiling-sky-office/21005/">LED-based sky ceiling recreates natural lighting conditions indoors </a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jan-belezina/">Jan Belezina</a></p> <p><em>12:33 January 4, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/dynamic-luminous-ceiling-sky-office/21005/#comments">7 Comments</a> </p> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/dynamic-luminous-ceiling-sky-office/21005/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/skyceiling.jpg" title="The dynamic luminous ceiling by Fraunhofer IAO recreates natural lighting conditions indoo..." alt="The dynamic luminous ceiling by Fraunhofer IAO recreates natural lighting conditions indoo..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>The privilege of working under the open sky is reserved for just a few lucky professions. For the less fortunate majority, spending their working hours surrounded by gloomy office landscapes, the soothing sight of clouds drifting through the sky is unattainable. Setting up office cubicles in the open would do the trick but it's hardly a practical option, especially in places where the weather cannot be trusted. Fortunately, researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering (IAO), based in Stuttgart, Germany, know what else can be done to bring a little outdoor comfort to the office-bound. They built a dynamic luminous ceiling which allows office dwellers to gaze at clouds without ever leaving their desks. <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/dynamic-luminous-ceiling-sky-office/21005/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/orangutans-use-ipads-skype-other-apes/20992/">Orangutans using iPads at zoos - soon to use Skype</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/author/eric-mack/">Eric Mack</a></p> <p><em>10:44 January 4, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/orangutans-use-ipads-skype-other-apes/20992/#comments">6 Comments</a> </p> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/orangutans-use-ipads-skype-other-apes/20992/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/appsapes.jpg" title="Orangutans at select zoos are now using iPads, and will soon start Skyping orangutans at o..." alt="Orangutans at select zoos are now using iPads, and will soon start Skyping orangutans at o..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Turns out we aren't that different from other apes after all. Our primate cousins at a handful of zoos love to use iPads to combat boredom just as much as humans. Zookeepers say that the device is perfect for orangutans, and many have been taking part in guided touchscreen interactions with all sorts of apps, including music, games, movies, cartoons, art, painting, drawing, photos and videos. The orangutans have been playing with the iPads for the past several months, and now a U.S. charity is hoping to round up more of the tablets so the apes can Skype with orangutans at other zoos. <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/orangutans-use-ipads-skype-other-apes/20992/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/portal-boxes-interactivity/21000/">Portal boxes let you reach inside the screen</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jonathan-fincher/">Jonathan Fincher</a></p> <p><em>00:36 January 4, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/portal-boxes-interactivity/21000/#comments">4 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/portal-boxes-interactivity/21000/pictures">7 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120112150256/http://www.gizmag.com/portal-boxes-interactivity/21000/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120112150256im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/portal-box.png" title="With Portal boxes, two people connected to the internet can literally reach behind a video..." alt="With Portal boxes, two people connected to the internet can literally reach behind a video..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Thanks to touchscreens and motion controls, we're able to interact with anything with a screen like never before; but this still leaves that glass barrier between us and the virtual world that we see behind it.

Well, given that we're now probably at about the time in history when the series was set, perhaps it only makes sense that we may soon be able to get a smartphone app that does pretty much the same thing as Edison's camera.
