Someday, umbrellas may do more than just keep people dry. A researcher in the Netherlands has designed a simple sensor (传感器) that “listens” to rain. And that sensor can turn an umbrella into a rain measuring expert. Tools like this can let anyone gauge the weather. That can help scientists make sure that radar (雷达) systems that track storms are doing a good job.
“Rain radar is a beautiful way of seeing where rainfall(降雨量) is up in the air. But you never know where it hits the ground,” says Rolf Hut. He designed the umbrella sensor.
Researchers want to know how much rain makes it to the planet's surface. Not all rain that falls from a cloud reaches the ground. And it can be difficult for radar to measure that rain, particularly in cities. A host of big buildings can change how air and rain move during a storm. “It also explains why a single, expensive sensor—the kind that might be found at an official weather station—won't give accurate city wide data,” says Hut. But by putting a low cost rain measuring tool into people's hands, scientists can learn more about how much rainfall differs in these and other hard to measure places.
On the inside of the umbrella is a small, yellow disk. It is the rainfall sensor. The sensor is attached to a black Bluetooth headset that sends the collected data to a smartphone.
Hut came up with the idea to stick the same type of sensor on an umbrella when he was talking to kids about science. He showed them a photo of a policeman who was holding an umbrella and talking to a crowd in a microphone. Why not put the two together He thought it could make a cool rainfall sensor.
When a storm came, Hut compared the umbrella's new “ear” for rain to official rain measuring equipment. And to his delight, he found the umbrella's measurements were “pretty good”. His next step is to improve the umbrella sensor to make it more accurate.

Anything made of plastic or metal can be 3D printed nowadays—bicycles, toys, tools...even replacement body parts! But the latest trend in 3D printing may be food. Scientists and chefs are putting their heads together to create printed food.
Several 3D printers designed for food are now on the market. Anything that can be made into a soft wet mixture can be squeezed (挤压) from a tube in a 3D printer. Instead of ink, these printers can use fruit, vegetables, proteins, sweets, and more. This makes for lots of combinations that can be healthy, yummy, and even artistic.
Most 3D printers don't actually cook the food, at least not yet. Engineers at Columbia University's Creative Machines Lab invented an oven (烤箱) that cooks 3D printed pizza with laser beams (激光束). A special computer program controls the lasers, heating each part of the pizza to perfection. Unlike regular ovens, lasers can carefully cook each thin piece of 3D printed food.
In the future, food can be made with a 3D printer to meet our needs. For example, a hospital could design meals to meet patients' dietary needs. Vitamins, minerals, and even medicines can be mixed right in. A 3D printer can make food appealing. Foods that someone may not like might be more attractive after 3D printing. Maybe that food you dislike wouldn't seem so bad if it looked like a castle!
The idea of 3D printed food may seem very modern. In fact, NASA (美国国家航空航天局) has been researching the topic for more than ten years. On a long travel, it's important to have food that is easy to make and tastes good, and has the nutrients astronauts need to stay healthy. Printing food on demand may soon be into the space!
