A new technology has been developed that could see people using their own bodies to transfer data from one device to another in future.

Communications provider KDDI has developed a new form of memory storage that could replace memory cards and flash sticks by making it far simpler to transfer information and less likely to be damaged in transit.

The company has discovered that the transfer of data such as video and music can be achieved at a frequency of less than 40MHz, Tech Digest reports.

This information could allow for video downloads by mobile phones to be made via human body in future, via glasses fitted with copper coils that touch the wearer’s forehead.

When the metal heart is touched, video is transmitted to the glasses, as well as to an external PC monitor.

If the technology can be successfully developed, it could revolutionise the way information is transferred.

The long-awaited new line of all-in-one iMacs has been released by the California-based computer giant Apple.

Brand new 20 and 24-inch widescreen displays encased in aluminum and glass give the machines a modern, sleek look.

Intel Core 2 Duo processors, an iSight video camera and the digital media organiser iLife 08 are all included with the machine.

Apple’s chief executive, Steve Jobs, said: ‘This new iMac is the most incredible desktop computer we’ve ever made.

‘Our new design features the innovative use of materials, including professional-grade aluminum and glass, that are highly recyclable.’

The designers built the new iMacs with an eye on cutting down desktop clutter and creating a streamlined multi-tasking tool.

A new cutting-edge keyboard is only 0.33 inches thin at the front and users have the option to buy the new wireless keyboard.

Apple has also updated some of their other lines such as the Mac Mini and the iLife & iWork software packages.

Last month saw the release of the wildly popular iPhone, which functions as a phone, mp3 player and web browser.
