********************
The Antikythera mechanism is the oldest computer in the world. It is about 2000 years old. It was discovered in 1900 in the sea and is believed to have been made by Greek astronomers. It contains many gears and is made from bronze. After much investigation scientists believe that the instrument was used as a calendar and as a tool for astronomical information. It also could predict eclipses, show the position of the sun and moon and tell when the Olympics would take place. It has been described in Nature as one of the most complex machines ever to have been invented.

Honda Motor Company has created a scooter that can be operated without a handle. The mobility device allows the driver to control the speed and direction by shifting their weight. It can also be controlled with a smartphone if users cannot manoeuver with their body. The devices are due to be tested at two locations in Japan; in Tokyo and in Kyoto. If they are successful, the devices could be used for getting people with walking difficulties around public libraries or even airports. (by Prof. Simon Smith)
