Bits, bytes, bluetooth and blu-ray! Technology is all around us and it moves at such a rapid pace, it can sometimes leave you in a daze. To bring you back to reality we take a look at some of the latest and greatest technological achievements from around Australia. Dr Rob discovers a machine that gets under your skin, we explore technology in cricket with a device designed to catch out fowl bowlers and we have a look at a device that allows anyone to create their very own work of art.NO BALL MACHINENo ball calls can be a real problem for bowlers and can cost a fielding team a free hit. For this reason, Sam James from the Queensland University of Technology and Troy Cooley from the National Cricket Centre have collaborated to develop a device that's going to knock no balls for six!ROBOT RECOVERYAfter extreme weather events emergency operators want to find and move survivors to safety as quickly as possible. For this reason Laith Al Shimaysawee from Flinders University has developed a unique algorithm to detect and locate people in emergency situations faster and with more efficiency.
