ripeSense by Josh Rubin
ripeSense sensor changes color by reacting to the aroma released by fruits as they ripen. The ripeSense packaging protects the fruit while in transit—and there is no longer a need for shoppers to squeeze and feel ‘is it ripe yet’, once the sensor reaches the desired ripeness level, you can just pop it in the ’fridge to slow down the ripening process. How long till wee see these widely used in the US? My guess, not long. --Josh Spear

NanoFlowers
While developing a new water repellant coating for solar cells, Cambridge University PhD student Ghim Wei Ho generated these phenomenal microscopic organisms. If you're brainy enough to follow, here's how he does it: [ he ] passes a methane gas over silicon carbide wires, grown from Gallium, to cause these structures -- called nanobouquet, nanotrees, and nanoflower -- to condense, depending on the temperature...

Nordaq Fresh Water Filtration System
Nordaq Fresh is a new Swedish water filtration system that may change the way restaurants think about drinking water. We hit Napa this weekend and one of the many pleasures was an afternoon at The French Laundry (thanks for the hook up, José). When our waiter explained our water options—locally filtered flat or sparking, on the house) we were pleasantly surprised. He went on...
