Confocal Displacement Sensors for Extreme Accuracy
Micro-Epsilon
 Confocal Displacement Sensors for Extreme Accuracy
Using Micro-Epsilon's revolutionary technology, the new optoNCDT2401 confocal displacement sensors can measure any target — opaque or transparent, liquid or solid  with the highest precision. Profiling of curved specular or transparent targets is possible. The extreme small consistent spot size enables measurements with microscopic resolution. These sensors are available in standard and worldwide unique miniaturized design. Confocal sensors measure on many different surfaces with different reflection properties and are used for one-sided thickness measurement.

Painting Plastic Without Waste
 Painting Plastic Without Waste
General Motors has partnered with FTS Technologies to change the way the company paints plastic auto parts, like door panels, without using a primer. The technology uses a robotic system, seen in this video, to alter the molecular surface of the part, making paint adhesion possible without primer. The process almost eliminates solid and liquid waste, and reduces air pollutants by 90%.

Form and Function of Future Communications
 Form and Function of Future Communications
To get a sense of what future communications will be like, study the patents that pathfinders are pursuing. These signs foretell plans to move communications beyond conventional constructs. For example, tech watchers believe Apple will re-invent TV to include content-aware widgets (see video) to deliver services that augment programs you're watching. Experts also think the company plans to integrate projectors in its devices to display information on flat surfaces and to rely on voice identification to unlock functionality. These technologies and others are also driving a dramatic shift that blends the personal with the professional by creating untethered enterprise platforms.
