Researchers Build "Squishy" Memory Device

Posted by samzenpus on from the memory-stuck-between-my-fingers dept.

ShipLives writes "Researchers have developed a memory device that is soft and functions well in wet environments, which could lead to new biocompatible electronic devices. 'We’ve created a memory device with the physical properties of Jell-O,' says Dr. Michael Dickey, an assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering at NC State and co-author of a paper describing the research."

    Are there no Star Trek fans online today? I thought for sure there would be references to bio-neural gel packs by now.

      Of course there are Star Trek fans, it's just that we all hate Voyager.
