(PhysOrg.com) -- Bigger speakers, bigger sound - this is the music lover`s creed. Flat panel loudspeakers offer an alternative to those who would rather not or cannot clutter up their homes with speakers. These speakers can be integrated inconspicuously on walls or in furniture. At the Internationale Funkausstellung IFA in Berlin, Germany, from September 4 to 9, Fraunhofer scientists are presenting a completely new concept for ultra-flat loudspeakers that still deliver full sound reproduction. http://www.physorg.com/news171211002.html Technology Thu, 03 Sep 2009 15:37:26 EST news171211002 By reversing a process that converts electrical signals into sounds heard out of a cell phone, researchers may have a new tool to enhance the way computer chips, LEDs and transistors are built. http://www.physorg.com/news156432003.html Physics Mon, 16 Mar 2009 14:20:28 EST news156432003 (PhysOrg.com) -- With much of the mobile world yet to migrate to 3G mobile communications, let alone 4G, European researchers are already working on a new technology able to deliver data wirelessly up to 12.5Gb/s. http://www.physorg.com/news155488774.html Technology Thu, 05 Mar 2009 15:20:09 EST news155488774 (PhysOrg.com) -- Lip reading is a critical means of communication for many deaf people, but it has a drawback: Certain consonants (for example, p and b) can be nearly impossible to distinguish by sight alone. http://www.physorg.com/news154884567.html Technology Thu, 26 Feb 2009 15:30:28 EST news154884567 Researchers have discovered that a frog that lives near noisy springs in central China can tune its ears to different sound frequencies, much like the tuner on a radio can shift from one frequency to another. It is the only known example of an animal that can actively select what frequencies it hears, the researchers say. http://www.physorg.com/news135937929.html Biology Tue, 22 Jul 2008 09:32:09 EST news135937929
