Swiss-Made TESLAR Watches’ Internal Chip Mimics Earth’s Natural Frequency

Together, this distinct process means that the watch itself mimics and distributes the frequency of planet Earth.

The Continued Quest for Pain-Free Microneedles

Produced through a process of 3D printing with polymers—altogether referred to as “4D printing” because of its core of programmable, shape-shifting material—rapidly developing microneedles may replace painful hypodermic needles in the next decade. Professor Howon Lee, who has lead the research from Rutgers University, has filed a patent on this new technology, which produces hollow needles that are barbed, much like the stinger of a …
