Eyeglasses read to the blind

A unique pair of eyeglasses developed by an FIU student team could revolutionize the lives of the blind, enabling them to walk into a library or a store, pick up any book or a can of soup, and read it. By using a pair of eyeglasses and lightweight components, Eyestalk will allow a blind user to access printed material while walking around a store or library, which now requires bulkier, more expensive equipment. The Eyestalk, still in its development stage, is designed to be portable, affordable, and operate without requiring an Internet connection. Future versions of Eyestalk will target a global market and enable users to hear information aloud in one of many languages.

Will the Moon be the 51^st State in the US?

Have you ever believed that the Moon will be the 51^st state, or even the 52^nd state (The Mars)? You can’t believe but that is the truth because America had the first people landed on the Moon in 1969. From that time, Americans have researched and tried how to use this planet. They discovered that the Moon has a lot of important resources as in the Earth such as gas, minerals and so on. How to gain this target early? That is we have to study well. Do you think so!
