New inventions and inventors

Here are some recent inventions and their inventors:

  1. Foldable Smartphone: Royole Corporation's foldable smartphone, released in 2019, is the first commercially available foldable phone. The company was founded by Dr. Yang Yang, a Chinese-American inventor and entrepreneur.
  2. 3D-Printed Heart: A team of researchers at Tel Aviv University, led by Dr. Tal Dvir, created the first 3D-printed heart in 2019. The heart is made of a combination of human cells and biomaterials.
  3. Smart Contact Lenses: Mojo Vision, a company founded by Dr. Steve Sinclair, has developed smart contact lenses that can display digital information and take photos. The lenses are still in development, but they have the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with technology.
  4. Artificial Pancreas: The artificial pancreas, developed by Dr. Roman Hovorka and his team at the University of Cambridge, is a device that can automatically monitor and regulate blood sugar levels in people with type 1 diabetes.
  5. Self-Healing Materials: Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led by Dr. Yiannis Koutsiaris, have developed self-healing materials that can repair themselves when damaged. These materials have the potential to be used in a wide range of applications, from medical devices to consumer products.
  6. Brain-Computer Interface (BCI): A team of researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), led by Dr. Edward Chang, have developed a BCI that allows people to control devices with their thoughts. The device has the potential to help people with paralysis or other motor disorders.
  7. Water-Repellent Fabric: Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led by Dr. Yiannis Koutsiaris, have developed a water-repellent fabric that can be used to create clothing and other textiles that are resistant to water and stains.
  8. Portable COVID-19 Test: A team of researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), led by Dr. Joseph DeRisi, have developed a portable COVID-19 test that can detect the virus in just 5 minutes. The test is still in development, but it has the potential to be used in remote areas where access to medical testing is limited.
  9. Artificial Intelligence-Powered Prosthetic Limbs: Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led by Dr. Gerald Loeb, have developed artificial intelligence-powered prosthetic limbs that can be controlled by the user's thoughts. The prosthetics have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of amputees.
  10. Solar Windows: Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led by Dr. Shanhui Fan, have developed solar windows that can generate electricity while still allowing light to pass through. The windows have the potential to be used in buildings and homes to reduce energy consumption.

These are just a few examples of recent inventions and their inventors. There are many more innovations being developed every day, and it's exciting to think about the potential impact they could have on our lives.
