"PROSTHESIS: Chips unravel vision mysteries"
Enabling the blind to see again is moving beyond the realm of Biblical prophecy as researchers around the world tackle the problem head-on. Recently, several researchers showed off artificial-retina prototypes at the International Joint Conference on Neural Networks.

"AI: creating a veritable cognitive mind"
Marvin Minsky, MIT professor and AI's founding father, says today's artificial-intelligence methods are fine for gluing together two or a few knowledge domains but still miss the big AI problem. Indeed, according to Minsky, the missing element is something so big that we can't see it: common sense.

"AI: quest goes small-concept"
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in recent years has poured hundreds of millions into every aspect of big artificial intelligence-expert systems, neural networks, genetic algorithms, evolutionary programming, fractal geometry, chaos theory, cellular automata, artificial life. And that just scratches the surface on the software side; legions of cognitive hardware architectures have also been beneficiaries of Darpa largesse. But thus far the far-flung investment has yielded little tangible return in solving the big-AI problem-getting machines to think like humans, learning from experience and applying logic and common sense to solve real-world problems. Given laymen's expectations of robots as fully cognitively functional assistants, that lack of quantitative progress has been a thorn in the agency's side.

"QUANTUM LED: Sandia's bright idea--hybrids that emit full-spectrum light"
Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories have blended quantum dots with an LED to produce a solid-state white-emitting device that does not depend on phosphors or multiple light sources.

"VR: Sympathetic' haptic device feels every remote move"
Countless science fiction books muse about systems that let one person share another's sensory experiences. Now a group at the State University of New York at Buffalo's Virtual Reality Lab is applying the concept in a haptic device for real-world applications.
