following a regatta in Antiqua. At two o'clock, a full bulletin. But

:00:00.:00:00.

now it is time to Click. Time to meet the gun but asks

:00:07.:00:08.

questions first and shoots later. This week on Click, we will find out

:00:09.:00:30.

why there is so much controversy over this, the smart gun that only

:00:31.:00:37.

lets its own fire it. Imagine being able to print your own

:00:38.:00:43.

body parts? We meet the closest to 3D printing people.

:00:44.:00:48.

Can this teach us better bedside manner?

:00:49.:00:54.

And some healthy options that we can all make use of.

:00:55.:01:03.

Welcome to Click. Many of the products that we use every day

:01:04.:01:10.

acquire the time smart thanks to the addition of new technology from

:01:11.:01:12.

smart fabrics that reacts to the environment to smartphones that our

:01:13.:01:17.

pocket computers. But adding the word smart to firearms is bound to

:01:18.:01:23.

cause controversy. We have travelled to Germany to discover the smart

:01:24.:01:32.

gun. The iP1 is a tutu calibre handgun,

:01:33.:01:35.

which differs in a major way from other firearms. This is a

:01:36.:01:44.

21st`century handgun. It contains 21st century technology. Inside it

:01:45.:01:47.

is a Radio`frequency identification chip. That communicates with this

:01:48.:01:55.

watch. The watch is more than 40 centimetres away from the gun, begun

:01:56.:02:02.

simply will not fire. This has been designed by German company Armatix

:02:03.:02:08.

as a safety feature. First of all, only the owner is able to use the

:02:09.:02:13.

gun. If the gun is lost or stolen, nobody else can use the gun. Or in

:02:14.:02:19.

case of the policemen getting involved in a fistfight and takes

:02:20.:02:25.

away your gun, this particular bad guy can aim at the policemen, but

:02:26.:02:28.

will not be able to shoot at the policemen. The watch is activated

:02:29.:02:35.

with a code and can be programmed to limit the duration of the time it

:02:36.:02:41.

allows the gun to fire. A colour`coded LED on the back of the

:02:42.:02:48.

gun displays its condition. The blue light shows that the magazine is

:02:49.:02:56.

still missing. With a red light, the watch is requested. Once the watch

:02:57.:03:05.

is inside the range, it switches to green mode. I can shoot the gun. I

:03:06.:03:12.

am invited to try out a separate add`on that can be plugged into the

:03:13.:03:17.

iP1. It will only allow the gun to fire if it is pointed in a

:03:18.:03:21.

particular direction. The target is marked by infrared. Technology which

:03:22.:03:32.

has been designed to make this particular firearms safer. In the

:03:33.:03:36.

United States, one of the largest markets for guns in the world, it is

:03:37.:03:40.

this very technology that has proved controversial. When news of its

:03:41.:03:45.

introduction spread, and online backlash followed. Gun stores

:03:46.:03:54.

suspect it of selling the pistol received e`mail threats. Gun stores

:03:55.:03:59.

insisted they would not be stocking the iP1. US gun safety advocates

:04:00.:04:07.

have a different attitude. You hear almost every single day in the

:04:08.:04:10.

United States about a child being accidentally shot by a playmate or

:04:11.:04:17.

find a gun under a pillow or night stand. Or they commit suicide, young

:04:18.:04:22.

people will know where guns are. A lot of deaths occur because guns do

:04:23.:04:28.

not have safety features and are not locked away properly by gun owners.

:04:29.:04:34.

If you had smart guns, this would prevent a lot of these deaths.

:04:35.:04:39.

Ironically, it could be a law introduced as a gun`control

:04:40.:04:44.

measure, which is stalling sales of this kind of technology. The state

:04:45.:04:48.

of New Jersey passed a law which requires that want a smart gun goes

:04:49.:04:52.

on sale anywhere in the US, all guns assaulted New Jersey must be smart

:04:53.:04:59.

guns within three years. This has some members of the pro`gun lobby

:05:00.:05:02.

concerned about the possibility of future electronic restrictions. We

:05:03.:05:08.

approached the National Shooting Sports Foundation in America for

:05:09.:05:12.

comment on the technology. They declined their request, but sent us

:05:13.:05:14.

this statement. We also approached the National

:05:15.:05:33.

Rifle Association. We are still awaiting a response. I think

:05:34.:05:38.

Americans recognise the commonsense in making a product as little as a

:05:39.:05:44.

gun smarter or safer. It is about safety, it is about public health

:05:45.:05:49.

and consumer safety. I believe guns should be regulated by the consumer

:05:50.:05:53.

products safety commission. Why should they be excluded? A state

:05:54.:05:58.

senator who sponsored the New Jersey smartphone war has offered to repeal

:05:59.:06:01.

it if the pro`gun lobby changes its stance on the technology. For now, a

:06:02.:06:08.

stand`off remains. Meanwhile, Armatix has a variety of firearms

:06:09.:06:12.

safety products in the offering, including locks and cabinets. Using

:06:13.:06:21.

fingerprint technology, owners can unlock their gun in under a second

:06:22.:06:24.

when they needed. In the United States, a company called Sentinel

:06:25.:06:30.

has a biometric scanning Loch in the works. So the technology is on its

:06:31.:06:40.

way. But its path to adoption in America still seems a long way from

:06:41.:06:45.

hitting the target. Your thoughts on this would be very

:06:46.:06:49.

welcome. I am sure there will be many of them coming our way.

:06:50.:06:55.

Next up, and look at this week's tech news.

:06:56.:07:02.

EBay is making its users change their passwords after hackers

:07:03.:07:05.

compromised one of its data bases. The company said in a financial data

:07:06.:07:09.

has been revealed. However, information including names are

:07:10.:07:13.

encrypted passwords, dates of birth and physical addresses have been

:07:14.:07:18.

accessed. The attack managed to get into a spear`phishing attack

:07:19.:07:30.

directed at some employees. China's government says it will not

:07:31.:07:34.

be using Windows eight on its new computers. It claims the decision

:07:35.:07:38.

was based on Microsoft no longer offering support for the older

:07:39.:07:42.

Windows XP operating system. It is unlikely they will be first to buy

:07:43.:07:46.

the newly unveiled Surface Pro three in that case. Microsoft hopes the

:07:47.:07:54.

latest tablet will compete with laptops rather than tablets when it

:07:55.:07:59.

is launched. There has been more friction between

:08:00.:08:02.

the US and China after the Americans accused five Chinese army officers

:08:03.:08:07.

of economic cyber`espionage. America says the offices stalled trade

:08:08.:08:12.

secrets and internal documents from companies and a labour union. They

:08:13.:08:19.

are the first criminal hacking charges the US as final against

:08:20.:08:23.

specific foreign officials. China has issued a statement denying the

:08:24.:08:26.

charges. And Google has warned users of its

:08:27.:08:33.

glass specs not use them for long periods of time. They could cause

:08:34.:08:37.

eye pain. The technology was not designed for moving icons or reading

:08:38.:08:44.

War and peace. Because of the position of the screen, users can

:08:45.:08:48.

spend a lot of time looking upwards. A movement that most of us are not

:08:49.:08:56.

used to. We have talked a lot on Click about

:08:57.:09:01.

3D printing. Everything from food to guns. But what if one day you could

:09:02.:09:11.

print yourself a replacement on? We have been to Holland where one

:09:12.:09:14.

University Hospital has been experimenting in the field of 3D

:09:15.:09:19.

bioprinting. Stem cells are one of our body's a

:09:20.:09:24.

sick building blocks. They have the potential to transform into any

:09:25.:09:31.

other type of cell the body is built from. That is everything from

:09:32.:09:34.

individual blood cells to the complex cell structures that make up

:09:35.:09:41.

entire organs. Here at the University medical Centre Utrecht

:09:42.:09:43.

they are experimenting using stem cells in 3`D by a printing. `` in

:09:44.:09:53.

the 3D bioprinting. A one`day hope to print replacement body parts.

:09:54.:09:57.

This printer works the same way as the ones we have seen in

:09:58.:10:01.

manufacturing. It deposits biological material later by Lehrer.

:10:02.:10:07.

There are some significant differences. When you look at

:10:08.:10:13.

materials like plastic, there are high temperatures involved. We have

:10:14.:10:17.

to extract that count of the process. We have to redesign the

:10:18.:10:22.

whole process. We use something that is like the human body. Based on

:10:23.:10:27.

water. We use it at a temperature close to body temperature. By

:10:28.:10:36.

printing using a special bio`ink. The cells are taken from patient

:10:37.:10:40.

biopsies or stem cells. A layer of gel is placed between each layer of

:10:41.:10:48.

bio`ink. We combine strong materials, degradable plastics that

:10:49.:10:50.

have been approved for medical use and we integrate that in our ranking

:10:51.:11:01.

process. You get reinforced. One of the challenges is creating a

:11:02.:11:06.

vascular systems to supply blood to tissue. The focus is on creating

:11:07.:11:09.

tissue like structures to test toxicity of drugs or medical

:11:10.:11:19.

advancements. In the future, 3D bioprinting skin and replacements

:11:20.:11:22.

for damaged or disease body parts may become reality. But for now,

:11:23.:11:32.

traditional methods continue. This was also the first hospital in the

:11:33.:11:36.

world to implant a 3`D printed skull. This operation happened

:11:37.:11:40.

earlier this year. The patient is recovering well. Another innovation

:11:41.:11:45.

from the University of Wollongong in Australia is this BioPen which

:11:46.:11:51.

allows surgeons to implant cells directly onto a patient's injury. An

:11:52.:11:57.

experimental tissue lab is opening and the University will offer the

:11:58.:12:01.

world's first joint degree programme in by a fabrication. It will teach

:12:02.:12:07.

technical skills and ethical issues. You need to bring in good evidence

:12:08.:12:18.

and things like integrity. This is a field that everybody likes. But we

:12:19.:12:21.

need to be terrible. We are going great steps. We actually have the

:12:22.:12:31.

printer right here. Back in 2011, many people were impressed when a

:12:32.:12:35.

doctor showed off the first bioprinted kidney. You can actually

:12:36.:12:41.

see the kidney as it was printed earlier today. But despite the

:12:42.:12:48.

showcase, this prototype cannot be implanted. That is what the

:12:49.:12:55.

researchers are focused on. Something that surgeons can actually

:12:56.:13:01.

use. That being said, we have got three

:13:02.:13:09.

space back in the office. Until you can print yourself a better body, it

:13:10.:13:14.

is best to keep the one you have got in top condition. These days there

:13:15.:13:17.

are plenty of wearable bits and bobs that monitor your statistics. But

:13:18.:13:22.

one bit that comes to our attention once to fill you breathe. Why? To

:13:23.:13:27.

measure your metabolic rate, of course. Tell the accompanying

:13:28.:13:32.

application your age and weight, something I am sure the company will

:13:33.:13:40.

not broadcast, you are ready to go. You breathe through the mouthpiece

:13:41.:13:44.

for about a minute. This will send data to your smartphone or tablet.

:13:45.:13:48.

You can see the results on the application. The only thing you have

:13:49.:13:51.

to make sure of is that no air escapes from your nose. The pinnacle

:13:52.:13:56.

of my broadcasting career starts now. By measuring how much oxygen

:13:57.:14:06.

has been turned into carbon dioxide in your breath, it can work out how

:14:07.:14:10.

fast or slow your metabolism is, which is crucial if you want to

:14:11.:14:13.

watch your weight because it tells you how many calories you personally

:14:14.:14:19.

should consume each day. To get an accurate result, you also must take

:14:20.:14:23.

a resting measurement, Chye was more than happy to provide. You also get

:14:24.:14:28.

to find out what types of food your body is burning energy from, whether

:14:29.:14:37.

it is carbohydrates, fat, or both. Is this the perfect way to lose

:14:38.:14:41.

weight? Launching this summer at a price of ?200, I wouldn't hold your

:14:42.:14:49.

breath. One thing technology is often criticised for his lack of

:14:50.:14:54.

emotional intelligence. It misses the human touch. That is very

:14:55.:14:57.

important when it comes to healthcare. At one British

:14:58.:15:02.

university, augmented reality is being used to add emotion. It is

:15:03.:15:07.

teaching training nurses to be more apathetic. Have you got any pain at

:15:08.:15:16.

the moment? In a profession like nursing, care and compassion are

:15:17.:15:26.

key. The training here at Sheffield is split between working on a real

:15:27.:15:32.

ward and working with this chap. He can blink and it looks like he is

:15:33.:15:35.

breathing, plus, it seems that he can give blood. This is still a

:15:36.:15:40.

dummy. If I wanted to actually engage with him, that would feel

:15:41.:15:48.

quite unnatural and that is where the AR comes in. The 3`D image

:15:49.:15:56.

recognition translates the dummy into a real person. When you can see

:15:57.:16:03.

that distress, the whole situation certainly feels a lot more real.

:16:04.:16:07.

That is what the students here are finding. This app consists of

:16:08.:16:13.

burying setups which have been recorded by actors to put a

:16:14.:16:17.

person's face and an image of distress in their mind. It has been

:16:18.:16:24.

bad all`night. If you could just sit me up, I would probably be a bit

:16:25.:16:33.

better... The manikin can be controlled with a computer. Live

:16:34.:16:38.

actors could be used, but the lecturers here believe that the

:16:39.:16:41.

recorded performances are allowed for a more cost`effective and

:16:42.:16:48.

consistent way of learning. The students interact quicker and more

:16:49.:16:53.

often with the manikin. That lets us look at the students and see how

:16:54.:16:57.

they talk, how they care, and how they provide compassion to the

:16:58.:17:01.

manikin is. Even with 12 to 14 chefs, `` shifts, it is important

:17:02.:17:11.

the right level of care and compassion is maintained. Nursing is

:17:12.:17:17.

challenging and when you are caring for a patient, it is not just about

:17:18.:17:27.

talking to somebody. It is about thinking about the technical skill

:17:28.:17:31.

that you are doing as well. The students who have learnt this way

:17:32.:17:34.

felt it made the scenarios feel more realistic. It is about engaging

:17:35.:17:40.

straightaway. Once you are actually listening to the patient, you can

:17:41.:17:44.

look at the expressions on their face, the tone in their voice, so it

:17:45.:17:51.

enables you to empathise straightaway as opposed to a

:17:52.:17:55.

when he almost feel silly. There could be other uses for this system

:17:56.:17:59.

as well. Reports this month suggest some healthcare workers could be

:18:00.:18:06.

missing vital clues in spotting asthma attacks. We can use augmented

:18:07.:18:10.

reality to simulate what somebody actually looks like with asthma,

:18:11.:18:15.

because it is all right as a lecturer saying, the patient is

:18:16.:18:18.

breathing quickly, but what does that look like? A need to be able to

:18:19.:18:26.

see it. It seems the possibilities for the mannequins are huge. Just,

:18:27.:18:38.

be gentle. Continuing with our health theme

:18:39.:18:42.

this week, Kate Russell has been doing the rounds and has come up

:18:43.:18:49.

with some apps which could be good for all of us. Eating well is an

:18:50.:18:53.

important part of staying healthy and food and in is a new app which

:18:54.:19:03.

brings you nutritional information and links it back to a shopping

:19:04.:19:14.

list. Link up with your Microsoft account and you can link the data

:19:15.:19:18.

with multiple devices and friends and family, taking distress out. You

:19:19.:19:29.

can build collections for later. These pages are picture rich, which

:19:30.:19:34.

makes them mouthwatering A`League irresistible, but slow to load if

:19:35.:19:46.

you are not on Wi`Fi. Gaming gets more social all the time, and a

:19:47.:19:51.

number of dedicated platforms exist to help you connect with like`minded

:19:52.:19:55.

enthusiasts. Play for hours among the best known where you can set up

you can go to BBC.Click. One of the great things about all social media

:21:02.:21:04.

is that it wrecks down geographical boundaries and connects you with

:21:05.:21:13.

people all over the world. But how far a field to your Twitter

:21:14.:21:18.

connections stretch? This helps you find out with a simple mapping

:21:19.:21:23.

tools. It is absolutely fascinating seeing your map plot out. As this is

:21:24.:21:30.

a global show, we have mentioned is coming in from all over the world.

:21:31.:21:34.

My personal account was a little less exotic but I have a lot of

:21:35.:21:38.

global connections through my gaming as well, though it was still a

:21:39.:21:44.

fascinating experience. Once the animation is complete, you can click

:21:45.:21:47.

on the markers to see who and what was tweeted. To finish on a healthy

:21:48.:21:56.

theme, a mental health awareness app has been launched. It contains

:21:57.:22:02.

videos of the veterans telling their own stories. As I came off the back

:22:03.:22:10.

of the helicopter, the helicopter took off and my detonators exploded

their friends and families recognise and offer help for any conditions

:22:18.:22:28.

they may be experiencing. If you would like to suggest a site

or app, e`mail us or tweet us. Before we go, I have found something

:22:39.:22:41.

that has been making waves online this week from the middle of the

:22:42.:22:48.

Pacific. This mesmerising website follows the migration tracks of

:22:49.:22:51.

different species of whales around the coast of Hawaii. The data comes

:22:52.:23:02.

from a larger research project from someone who has been studying marine

:23:03.:23:06.

mammal behaviour since the 1980s. We spend 30 to 60 days on the water

:23:07.:23:11.

every year, and doing a particular field projects, we might tag three

:23:12.:23:18.

or four individual whales. What the tax to is give us the information on

:23:19.:23:21.

whether Wales go when we are not with them. A lot of what they are

:23:22.:23:29.

doing is driven by what is going on in the environment in terms of ocean

:23:30.:23:33.

current, so integrating the current data that matches up with the whale

:23:34.:23:38.

movement data is going to be very useful. Part of what we are trying

:23:39.:23:46.

to do is educate people but also inspire people. To get them

:23:47.:23:50.

interested in the animals in the first leg. If the webpage does that,

:23:51.:24:03.

it is a good step. That really is it from us. If you

:24:04.:24:09.

would like more, you can go to our website. Thanks for watching, we

:24:10.:24:11.

will see you next time. Is a bank holiday dawns on a fairly

:24:12.:24:35.

unsettled note with some scattered and heavy showers on the cards.

:24:36.:24:41.

There with the weather, it will improve as we head through the

:24:42.:24:44.

second half of bank holiday weekend for most places. There will be some

:24:45.:24:47.

heavy showers around, but
