built-in self protection. The demo model has a camera, a wrist mounted
stunner and lots of room for future improvements. The idea came to David
while talking to his friend, Kevin Costner.

With a pleasant name for a gross procedure, the Zero Liquid Discharge,

While it can't tell you if you're the fairest of them all, the Medical
Mirror can tell you your heart rate, which is probably more valuable in

reflected light on your face, and an algorithm translates that into
heartbeats.
