The last time we saw a simplified GPS homing device about, we weren't too terribly impressed. Sure, the premise was solid: press one button to lock in the position of your car (or the gold of Dresden), and it will return you to its location after your day at the mall (or after you've successfully ev ...

氣喘跟 GPS 能扯上什麼關係呢？用 GPS 幫氣喘病患找醫院嗎？啊哈，代誌可不是憨人所想的那麼簡單。來自威斯康辛大學麥迪遜分部的 David Van Sickle 正打算在氣喘吸入器上裝設 GPS 設備，用來記錄患者會在什麼時間、什麼地點使用它。藉由這些資訊，科學家便能夠更輕易地分析出哪些地點有可能會有不為人知的過敏原出現。 舉例來說，在 80 年代，巴塞隆納曾發生一場莫名的流行性氣喘，疫情持續了好長一段時間，科學家們整整投入了八年的時間才找出原因是巴塞隆納港口的黃豆粉塵造成的。若是當時就有這些患者的行蹤記錄，或許就能夠將可疑地區縮小鎖定，大幅縮短研究時間。 目前這項計畫還在初期召募階段，年 ...
