Zeabur backups captured replacement keys before renewed abuse ↗
The October incident shows why replacing credentials is not enough when unsafe copies remain possible.
EgoThumb uses a camera to decide when an extra thumb should grip ↗
Visual control shares the work of grasping and releasing with a wearer. A three-person experiment also shows how performance can fall when object locations change.
RES-Q fits overdose rescue hardware inside an injection needle ↗
Miniaturization advances an existing rescue concept, but reliability remains the critical test.
Dyson CameraJet targets tooth gaps with a camera, but still takes practice ↗
