Here’s how the Apple Watch blood oxygen feature could return after Masimo shakeup
One of the biggest barriers to upgrading to a new Apple Watch this year is that, if you’re in the US and currently own a model with blood oxygen measurement, you wouldn’t get that feature in your new model. That’s due to the patent dispute b.....»»
Researchers use carbon nanotube derivatives to strengthen recyclable plastics
Reducing the environmental impact caused by plastics can be addressed through different strategies, such as the manufacture of more durable plastics or recycling. In general, there are two main types of plastics. The first is thermoplastics, which ca.....»»
