Dilin Anand: 10 books

Integrating electronics onto the human body is nothing new in this age of wearables. Neil Harbisson has taken this to the next level with the eyeborg— an antenna implanted into his skull that lets him ‘hear’ colours. He is now the world’s first government-recognised cyborg. Neil Harbisson speaks with Dilin Anand in an interview with EFY

The theoretical education imparted at engineering colleges does very little to help an engineer learn how to develop products. So, how do you get started? Eben Upton, founder of the Raspberry Pi Foundation and SoC architect with Broadcom, speaks with Dilin Anand of EFY on the eve of Raspberry Pi 2 launch

By leveraging advances in electronics, software and communication systems, the automation sector has improved a lot in the past decade. It has helped industries improve productivity and throughput. But at what point does it get too fast for its own good? Find out, as Glen Smith, CEO, Mouser Electronics, speaks with Atul Goel and Dilin Anand of EFY

The Raspberry Pi has spurred so much interest in last one year that we decided to uncover what makes it such a great catalyst for innovation

Going by the effort being put in to make robots smarter, we would be seeing ‘intelligent’ robots in no time. This article points to some latest technologies that are being developed which could take over this world

Branded as the most overhyped technology by Garner’s hype cycle report, the Internet of Things (IoT) has seen a large number of technologies being built to harness the symbiotic relationship between data from the IoT and analytics of Big Data.

In the two years since its release, the Raspberry Pi has literally gone placesfrom reaching near-space in a balloon to crossing the Atlantic. Let us take a look at the latest slew of crazy innovations powered by this little board.

Technology-aided behaviour analysis and modification has been there since four years now. However, earlier devices had the tendency to be more about delivering technology in a wearable device than about affecting behavioural change in the user.

Neil Harbisson, 32, can receive phone calls directly into his head. He can perceive colours invisible to the human eye. He has an antenna that sprouts from the occipital bone in his Bluetoothenabled skull. Neil is not a sci-fi movie character, nor from the future; he is the world’s first legally-recognised cyborg. 

Building projects for flight and space is one of the most popular areas in recent times. From building mini satellites to setting up weather balloons that fly to what is termed as near space, open source hardware and software solutions are driving the poor man’s space program.
