The Javabot is the coffee machine of the future - completely next generation. It is the fully-automated system that runs the Roasting Plant Coffee Company in New York. |
|
It delivers a coffee with your favourite blend of seven beans, plus how they are roasted, ground and the temperature at which the coffee is brewed, all inside 30 seconds. It’s the only walk-in coffee machine in the world right now, but we suspect the number will grow rapidly once people understand what it delivers. [RoastingPlant]

AuthenTec has announced a thin, durable, waterproof, and surface-mountable covering for its TruePrint biometric fingerprint sensors. Known as TouchStone, the thin casing triples the protective coating over the sensitive technology, shielding it from accidental scratching by coins, keys, pens and anything else you may find in your pocket. |
|
Unlike fingerprint sensors that rely on optical, thermal, or DC capacitive technology, the TruePrint system uses small RF signals to detect the “live” layer of skin beneath the surface. Not only does this provide better image quality, it also allows the semiconductor-based sensors to be covered by a greater variety of protective coatings. The first AuthenTec product available in TouchStone packaging will be the AES1711 low-power sensor for the wireless market, with production quantities expected in the fourth quarter. [AuthenTec]
