Like moths to a flame, kids gravitate toward iPad and iPhone games. But for parents that want their children to still be exposed to real-world toys, a new startup called ZowPow is offering a way that they can do both.
The company makes plush toys that can control gameplay.
One of their very first toys is a tiny plane that can control up-and-down movement for a paired game called “Tiny Plane,” which is published by EA’s Chillingo.
The game controller they built has built-in sensors and accelerometers that can tell which direction the plane is facing, so that the plane in the game mimics its movement through Bluetooth LE (see the video below).
Amazon’s plans to deliver packages by drones, which it predicts “will be as normal as seeing mail trucks on the road today,” has been widely dismissed as little more than clever self-promotion.
Yet, in some contexts, drone delivery has shown potential. Last year, a startup called Matternet in Palo Alto, California, tested drones as a way to deliver supplies to refugee camps in Haiti and found it cost only 20 to 70 cents to deliver a two-kilogram package 10 kilometers—at least a fivefold savings compared to standard truck delivery.
Researchers say their proof-of-concept is a major step toward designing a nanocage that carries medicine around the body and targets specific diseased cells.
The nanocage consists of eight unique DNA molecules that respond to temperature changes to close (left) or open (middle) and ultimately trap (right) an active enzyme called horseradish peroxidase (HRP).

Sherlock Holmes and his literary sidekick, Dr. Watson, meet for the first time in a chemical lab, right after the detective identified a substance that can reveal the protein hemoglobin present in the red blood cells. “I’ve found it! I’ve found it,” Holmes is shouting as Watson walks in. “Why, man, it is the most practical medico-legal discovery for years. Don’t you see that it gives us an infallible test for blood stains.”
