Micro-Fitness: Mastering Health in the Bits and Pieces of Your Day
What is Micro-Fitness? Micro-fitness is a health management approach that involves engaging in physical activity during short time segments, typically lasting 5-10 minutes or even less. Its core idea is to make use of fragmented time in daily life—such as breaks between work tasks, waiting for the bus, or watching TV—to perform simple exercises like jumping, squats, or stretching. This method is especially suitable for people who struggle to find large blocks of time for traditional long-duration workouts, including busy
From Sci-Fi to Reality: Manus and the Wild Future of AI Agents
The question of the first global AI agent is complex, but it seems likely that Manus, launched in March 2025 by the Chinese startup Butterfly Effect, is a key contender. It can autonomously handle tasks like creating travel itineraries or analyzing stocks, drawing global attention (MIT Technology Review). Earlier systems, like ELIZA from the 1950s, are sometimes mentioned, but Manus is seen as a general AI agent, a step forward in autonomy. Future Outlook for AI Agents Looking ahead, AI

Technological Advancements: How Smart Devices Improve the Quality of Life for AMD Patients
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of vision loss among individuals aged 50 and older, significantly affecting daily activities such as reading, driving, and facial recognition. With the global population aging, the prevalence of AMD is steadily increasing. As of 2024, approximately 11 million people in the United States are affected by AMD, accounting for about 12% of the population aged 50 and older. In the U.S., AMD is the primary cause of visual impairment, particularly
The Emerging Dream-Sharing Platforms: When Your Nightmare Becomes Someone Else’s Creative Material – Psychological and Technological Explorations for Low-Vision Users
Throughout human history, the concept of “dream sharing” has captivated our imagination. From the multi-person dream scenarios in the movie Inception to real-world scientific attempts to establish communication during sleep, dream-sharing technology is moving from science fiction to reality. Dream sharing refers to the use of advanced technological methods to allow multiple individuals to perceive, communicate, and even participate in each other’s dreams. In 2024, remarkable breakthroughs have been made in this field: researchers have utilized brain-computer interface (BCI) technology,

The Phenomenon of Digital Side Dishes: Why Do We Need Dining Videos?
In modern society, eating is no longer just about “filling the stomach.” The companionship at the dining table has gradually shifted from family and friends to screens. With the widespread use of smartphones, more and more people have developed the habit of watching videos while eating, creating a unique phenomenon—“dining videos.” Behind this behavior lies not only the demand for food but also insights into social, cultural, and psychological changes. Today, we explore this phenomenon and analyze how “digital side

The New Trend of Smart Digital Healthcare – Low-Vision Patients May “No Longer Need to Visit Hospitals”
In the wave of smart digital healthcare, the way low-vision patients receive care is undergoing a dramatic transformation. With the rapid development of technology, especially in telemedicine and smart devices, low-vision patients no longer need to frequently visit hospitals to access convenient medical services. These new technologies not only provide more accessible medical care for low-vision patients but also effectively alleviate the challenges and pressures they face in the healthcare process.
