Under some circumstances, however, you might also want to isolate the transmission of power – in situations where traditional copper wire might prove unsafe or impractical, for instance. That’s why researchers at Sandia National Laboratories are developing a power-over-fiber (PoF) communications cable. It carries not only data, but also optical power. <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/hybrid-data-power-optical-cable/21335/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details newsbyte"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/automotive/" style="float: left; ">AUTOMOTIVE</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/mercedes-new-commercial-van-the-citan/21337/">Mercedes new commercial van - the Citan</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By Gizmag Team</p> <p><em>00:23 February 4, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/mercedes-new-commercial-van-the-citan/21337/pictures">3 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="summary"> <p> <a class="noback" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/mercedes-new-commercial-van-the-citan/21337/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/related/mercedes-benz-citan-urban-commercial-vehicle.jpg" title="The Mercedes Benz Citan will come in crewcab and mixed use interior as well as panel van" alt="The Mercedes Benz Citan will come in crewcab and mixed use interior as well as panel van" class="newsbyte_img"/></a> Mercedes-Benz’ is to launch a new urban delivery van later this year named the Citan (“city” and “titan”)- the little brother to the Sprinter and Vito. The Citan will be first seen at the IAA Commercial Vehicle Show in Hanover in September. The new van will be available with petrol, diesel and electric drivetrains, and with panelvan, crewbus and mixed use bodies, and in a variety of lengths and weights. My bet is that there's an ideal base for a small campervan there too. <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/mercedes-new-commercial-van-the-citan/21337/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details "> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/health/" style="float: left; ">HEALTH AND WELLBEING</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/nirs-stroke-patient-brain-oxygen/21334/">Head patch measures blood flow in stroke patients' brains</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></p> <p><em>14:18 February 3, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/nirs-stroke-patient-brain-oxygen/21334/pictures">2 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/nirs-stroke-patient-brain-oxygen/21334/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/nirs.jpg" title="A new device known as NIRS uses light to non-invasively monitor blood oxygenation in the b..." alt="A new device known as NIRS uses light to non-invasively monitor blood oxygenation in the b..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p> Approximately one third of stroke patients experience another stroke while they’re still in the hospital. Nurses therefore keep a close eye on them, and arrange for them to be taken for tests if a subsequent stroke is suspected. Unfortunately these tests can be invasive, and in some cases are even potentially harmful to the patient. A new device being developed at the Mayo Clinic in Florida, however, could watch for strokes simply by shining light onto a patient’s forehead. <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/nirs-stroke-patient-brain-oxygen/21334/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details "> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/games/" style="float: left; ">GAMES</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/south-korea-kinect-theme-park/21333/">South Korea opens a Kinect-powered theme park </a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jonathan-fincher/">Jonathan Fincher</a></p> <p><em>13:30 February 3, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/south-korea-kinect-theme-park/21333/pictures">5 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/south-korea-kinect-theme-park/21333/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/live-park-kinect.jpg" title="Visitors to the Live Park 4D World Tour wear RFID wristbands that allow the displays to id..." alt="Visitors to the Live Park 4D World Tour wear RFID wristbands that allow the displays to id..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p> New media entertainment company, d'strict, is pushing the concept of virtual reality to a new level with the "Live Park 4D World Tour," a new theme park that recently opened in South Korea. The park is comprised of 65 different attractions over a 10,000 sq. foot (929 sq m) space, which houses several large interactive displays as well as some installation art pieces. Visitors wear RFID wristbands that allow the displays to identify them, while Kinect sensors detect their movements, voices, and faces. Many of the attractions center around having users create an avatar of themselves that they can interact with and take on a virtual adventure, which is portrayed using 3D video, holograms, and augmented reality technology. <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/south-korea-kinect-theme-park/21333/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details "> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/sports/" style="float: left; ">SPORTS</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/ski-goggles-bluetooth-intercom/21238/">Buhel Speakgoggle lets you talk through your nose bones</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/author/chris-weiss/">Chris Weiss</a></p> <p><em>13:09 February 3, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/ski-goggles-bluetooth-intercom/21238/pictures">2 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/ski-goggles-bluetooth-intercom/21238/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/buhelspeakgoggleg33.jpg" title="The Buhel Speakgoggle G33 Intercom eliminates wires and microphones" alt="The Buhel Speakgoggle G33 Intercom eliminates wires and microphones"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p> Traditionally just big, goofy optics designed to protect your eyes from cold, snow and bright light, ski goggles have taken all kinds of new roles over the past few winters.

Recent additions include the Abarth and Cabrio versions, and now the 500L (the L stands for Large) is something completely different again. It's a compact five-seat people carrier, combining the passenger space of an MPV with the feel of a small SUV on the road and the restrained dimensions and efficiency of a B segment car. The 500L will debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March and will hit European markets in late 2012, with a choice of two petrol engines and the 1.3 liter MultiJet II turbodiesel engine. <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/fiat-500l/21323/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <center class="snap_noshots"> <div class="next_prev"><strong> <span>1</span> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/page/2/">2</a> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/page/3/">3</a> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/page/4/">4</a> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/page/5/">5</a> <a href="/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/page/2/">Next </a> » </strong></div> </center> <div class="dotsontop">  <div id="search_form_bottom"> <form action="https://web.archive.org/web/20120204102744/http://www.gizmag.com/search/" id="cse-search-box-bottom"> <span class="title">Looking for something?
