In this week's show Paul Otellini kicks off Intel Developer Forum, the Tokyo Game show lets attendees play Final Fantasy XIII, Sony shows off the PS3 Motion Controller, Alienware launches new gaming PCs, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison rants about cloud computing, a new iPhone app integrates 3D objects into images and Logitech expands the Squeezebox line.

In the past few years, we have experienced a dramatic rise in the number of electronic devices—cell phones, digital cameras, laptops, etc.—that we use in our everyday lives. Most of these devices are powered by batteries which need to be recharged very often. The costs, resources and management of multiple, incompatible power cords, bricks, etc. are already a nightmare for the typical user.

WREL [Wireless Resonant Energy Link], in contrast to surface-based systems (―power pads‖), demonstrates wireless power transfer whose efficiency can be nearly independent of orientation, distance, and load over a wide range of operating conditions. This technology could allow people to cut that last cord.

Ellie takes a look at the projects at "Research@Intel Day" to learn about emerging technologies.

Ray Kurzweil's latest graphs show that technology's breakneck advances will only accelerate -- recession or not. He unveils his new project, Singularity University, to study oncoming tech and guide it to benefit humanity.

Have a look at the inside of a human being. In this installation, with the help of an easy to use multi touch interface, the user can freely interact with stunning volumetric 3D datasets of real scanned human bodies.

The datasets in this demo have been created with state of the art techniques within medical imaging; Dual Energy Computed Tomography and by using new methods in the field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The data has been imported straight from the scanners and has not been edited or modified before rendering, what you see is not a 3D model, its a full volumetric description of a human body.

The visualization techniques used in this table is already utilized successfully as a compliment to the conventional autopsy. Apart from avoiding cutting in the body the medical experts, such as coroners, can see things that are difficult to discover in a conventional autopsy. Furthermore, the technique opens up for new opportunities in countries where autopsies are not accepted due to cultural reasons. The technique will revolutionize the traditional health care in many areas.

Watch how future technology will help people make better use of their time, focus their attention, and strengthen relationships while getting things done at work, home, and on the go

Peter Diamandis, Chairman and Co-Founder of Singularity University, discusses the best way to predict the future, and shares his personal philosophies on innovation and the commercial space industry.
