Introduction Video
In this episode of Invention Factory, we see the ways in which technology is changing how we view our world. From laser scanning that maps the world in amazing 3D detail, a new 4D ultrasound that gives our health a whole new dimension, to the potential uses of holographic imaging–we'll never look at things the same way again.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we explore how scientists are harnessing the power of the mind to achieve what once seemed impossible. From microelectronic brain implants that allow us to control machines with our thoughts, to training the brain to push the body to new limits – we'll test the limits of human potential and see what we are truly capable of through science and technology.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we explore the evolution of robotics. From robots that can be our friends, exoskeletal suits that can make us faster and stronger, and machines that learn like humans–welcome to the true age of robotics.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we explore the future of flight. From Xcor, a company making private space travel a growing reality, to GE's 3D printing technology that is helping to create better, smarter, faster engines–billions more people will have access to fast, affordable global travel.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we try to understand the logic of love. From mining the data of billions of online connections, to charting the brain's reaction to love – we search for enlightenment by exploring the patterns in the chaos of human emotion.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we uncover the mysteries of the earth's final frontier, the oceans. From creating machines that work at extreme depths, to mapping and recording the entire ocean landscape – we'll take a deep dive into this largely unknown region and see how technology is helping us understand, utilize and protect the last frontier on earth. Language: Portuguese with English subtitles.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we look at sustainable energy sources generating power in unexpected ways. From trash to the ocean's tidal energy – all the energy we could ever need is all around us if we look in the right places. Language: Portuguese with English subtitles.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we probe the cutting edge of medical technology that is making the world a healthier place. From cutting-edge CT scanners, to human genome sequencing, to 3D printing parts of our body – technology is helping us live happy, healthy, longer lives.
In this episode of Invention Factory, we examine how the world works when we give machines a brain – enhancing them with the intelligence to know where they are, how they are working and how to perform at their best. From cutting edge diagnostics on a championship race car, to smart bicycles that give us insight into the chaotic world of China's biggest city, we'll see how more intelligent machines are changing the way we live. Language: Chinese with English subtitles.
