JAKARTA, Aug 8 (Reuters) — U.S. carmaker Tesla (TSLA.O) has signed contracts worth about $5 billion to buy materials for their batteries from nickel processing companies in Indonesia, a senior cabinet minister told CNBC Indonesia.

Southeast Asia’s biggest economy has been trying to get Tesla to set up a production facility in the country, which has major nickel reserves. President Joko Widodo met with Tesla founder Elon Musk earlier this year to drum up investment. read more

“We are still in constant negotiation with Tesla … but they have started buying two excellent products from Indonesia,” Coordinating Minister for Maritime and Investment Affairs Luhut Pandjaitan said in an interview broadcast on Monday.

Wearable human-machine interface devices, HMIs, can be used to control machines, computers, music players, and other systems. A challenge for conventional HMIs is the presence of sweat on human skin.

In Applied Physics Reviews, scientists at UCLA describe their development of a type of HMI that is stretchable, inexpensive, and waterproof. The device is based on a soft magnetoelastic sensor array that converts mechanical pressure from the press of a finger into an .

The device involves two main components. The first component is a layer that translates mechanical movement to a magnetic response. It consists of a set of micromagnets in a porous silicone matrix that can convert the gentle fingertip pressure into a magnetic field variation.

In today’s video we take a deep dive into the Future of Transportation. There has been no denying the fact that for several years in the past, the world has been undergoing massive changes, thanks to the advancement in technology. However, when it comes to transportation, the changes have not been that great. Transportations method such as cars, trains, ships, and planes have improved somewhat in functionality over time, but since their creation, they have in large part stayed the same.

With that being said however, when we look at the latest advancements in technology, it looks that the rate of change is about to make a dramatic acceleration. If you are interested in knowing what the future holds when it comes to transportation, then make sure to stick with us all the way till the end.

In this video, we will unveil some amazing future transportation technologies that without a doubt will absolutely blow your mind!

The technologies we look at will include; Earth-to-earth rockets, which will let you travel from one side of the earth to the other in less than 1 hour. This technology utilizes the famous Starship from Elon Musk’s SpaceX; Hyperloop Systems, which is a cutting-edge new technology that makes use of a vacuum-sealed tube to send passengers or freight at high speeds; Fully Autonomous Vehicles, looking into the various level of autonomation available today and what will be there in the future.

The video also covers Magnetic Levitation Trains, which is a type of high-speed ground transportation technology that uses magnetic fields that lets the train levitate and move without making contact with the ground. Lastly, we cover Flying Taxis and Hypersonic Air Travel. The flying taxis, like the ones being constructed by Volocopter, is a new mode of transportation that could very well take the world by storm in the future. The future of hypersonic air travel will let passenger again take to the sky in hypersonic aircraft similar to the Concord in the past, only much safer and considerably faster.

A University of Minnesota Twin Cities-led team has found that electrical stimulation of the body combined with sound activates the brain’s somatosensory or “tactile” cortex, increasing the potential for using the technique to treat chronic pain and other sensory disorders. The researchers tested the non-invasive technique on animals and are planning clinical trials on humans in the near future.

The paper is published in the Journal of Neural Engineering, a highly regarded, peer-reviewed scientific journal for the interdisciplinary field of neural engineering.

During the experiments, the researchers played broadband sound while electrically stimulating different parts of the body in guinea pigs. They found that the combination of the two activated neurons in the brain’s somatosensory cortex, which is responsible for touch and pain sensations throughout the body.
