Squid-inspired ‘invisibility stickers’ could help disguise soldiers, UCI’s Gorodetsky says at ACS
Squid are the ultimate camouflage artists, blending almost flawlessly into the background so that unsuspecting prey can’t detect them. Using a protein key to this process, UCI researchers have designed “invisibility stickers” that could one day help soldiers disguise themselves, even when sought by enemies with tough-to-fool infrared cameras. Assistant professor of chemical engineering & materials […]
UCI engineers develop prototype of low-cost, disposable lung infection detector
Irvine, Calif., Oct. 14, 2014 – Imagine a low-cost, disposable breath analysis device that a person with cystic fibrosis could use at home along with a smartphone to immediately detect a lung infection, much like the device police use to gauge a driver’s blood alcohol level. Timely knowledge of a lung infection would let people […]
