Wearable health tracking is increasingly moving beyond fitness into serious medical-risk detection, and recent research suggests that the Apple Watch could play a role in identifying stroke risk earlier than conventional methods. By continuously monitoring heart rhythm and alerting users to irregular patterns, the device may help flag conditions linked to stroke — particularly atrial fibrillation (AFib) — long before symptoms become obvious. Apple Watch Health Features in Action Here’s an example of how wearable heart monitoring is being used in real-world contexts: This video illustrates how Apple Watch sensors and algorithms can pick up heart irregularities — the same…
Apple has formally unveiled the second-generation AirTag, marking its first major update to the ground-breaking item tracker since its original launch in 2021. The new AirTag 2 combines hardware upgrades with refined connectivity to deliver greater precision, louder alerts and expanded compatibility across Apple devices — all while retaining the affordable pricing of its predecessor. What’s New Under the Hood At first glance, AirTag 2 looks very familiar: the same compact circular form factor that many users already sling to key rings, backpacks and luggage remains intact. But under the surface, Apple has re-engineered crucial elements to bring meaningful enhancements:…
In 2026, Google is poised to reignite the smart glasses market with a fresh pair of AI-enabled spectacles — nearly 13 years after the original Google Glass debuted to fanfare and controversy. Once derided and quickly pulled from the consumer market, Google Glass has been something of a cautionary tale in wearable tech. Yet, after two earlier attempts (2013’s consumer version followed by a workplace-focused refresh in 2017), Alphabet is betting that the time is finally right to make eyewear a mainstream computing platform. A Third Time’s the Charm? Google’s latest strategy positions two distinct “AI Glasses” for 2026 —…
Personal technology is increasingly moving beyond convenience and connectivity, focusing instead on wellbeing, beauty and everyday performance. Two devices attracting growing attention — Elemind Technologies’ sleep headset and the DERMAFLASH LUXE+ — highlight how innovation is empowering individuals with science-backed, at-home solutions once limited to clinical or professional settings. Together, they reflect a broader shift toward technology that delivers tangible benefits, blending intelligent design with measurable results. Elemind: redefining sleep and brain health In the fast-evolving wellness technology space, Elemind has emerged as a standout for its novel approach to sleep and cognitive wellbeing. Rather than relying on medication or…
Microsoft and the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team have announced a multi-year strategic partnership that will place cloud computing and enterprise artificial intelligence at the heart of one of Formula 1’s most successful organisations. As the sport prepares for sweeping regulation changes in 2026, the collaboration signals a decisive shift toward data-driven performance, with Microsoft’s cloud and AI technologies embedded across the team’s operations — from factory development to real-time race strategy. Technology meets a changing Formula 1 landscape Formula 1 is entering a transformative phase. The 2026 regulations will place greater emphasis on electrification, energy efficiency and sustainability, increasing…
AtmosZero is tackling one of the hardest problems in the global energy transition: how to decarbonise industrial steam, a cornerstone of manufacturing that still relies heavily on fossil fuels. By electrifying steam boilers using advanced heat-pump technology, the company is offering a practical alternative to gas- and oil-fired systems that power industries ranging from food and beverage to chemicals, pharmaceuticals and paper production. Why steam is such a big emissions challenge Steam has underpinned industrial processes for more than two centuries. It is essential for heating, sterilisation, distillation and chemical reactions — but it is also one of the largest…
Dental laboratories and practices are increasingly turning to advanced printer technology to transform the way restorative and surgical work is produced. What was once a labour-intensive, multi-step process is becoming faster, more predictable and significantly more efficient — helping teams reduce manual workloads while improving precision and turnaround times. As digital dentistry matures, next-generation printing systems are emerging as one of the most powerful tools for modernising lab operations. From manual production to automated precision Traditional fabrication methods often require extensive hand-finishing, curing and adjustment. By contrast, modern dental printers are capable of producing components that emerge fully cured, highly…
Apple’s next generation of iPhone, widely expected as the iPhone 18 series, is generating unusual excitement in the tech world — not for incremental specs, but for what may be one of the biggest visual redesigns in years. Early leaks and insider whispers suggest that Apple could be preparing to dramatically alter the look of its flagship models, especially the Pro and Pro Max versions, with changes that go far beyond the usual year-on-year tweaks. Under-display Face ID and a smaller front cut-out One of the most talked-about rumours centres on Apple’s Face ID technology — the biometric system introduced…
Alberta is on the brink of a major shift in how it approaches online gambling. After years of discussion and planning, the province has now set out a comprehensive framework to regulate iGaming and sports betting, laying the groundwork for a competitive market that could rival established models in Canada. This represents a clear break from the previous system, which was dominated by a single government-run platform, and signals a new chapter in Alberta’s gaming landscape. A framework built with Ontario in mind Alberta’s blueprint for regulated online gambling draws inspiration from the success of neighbouring Ontario’s regulated market, which…
Artificial intelligence leader OpenAI has taken a significant step into the healthcare technology space with the acquisition of health-tech startup Torch, signalling its ambition to become a foundational player in AI-driven health services. The move reflects a broader shift within the AI sector, where general-purpose models are increasingly being tailored for complex, high-stakes industries such as healthcare. By bringing Torch into its ecosystem, OpenAI is positioning itself at the intersection of artificial intelligence, personal health data and patient-centred digital care. Unifying Fragmented Medical Data Torch was built to address one of healthcare’s most persistent challenges: fragmented patient data. Medical records…
