Out of date date May 2011 More references date May 2011 ProteinCoatedDisc PCD is a theoretical optical disc technology currently being developed by Professor Venkatesan Renugopalakrishnan, formerly of Harvard Medical School and Florida International University . PCD would greatly increase storage over Holographic Versatile Disc optical disc systems. It involves coating a normal DVD with a special light sensitive protein made from a genetically altered microbe, which would in principle allow storage of up to 50 Terabyte s on one disc. Working with the Japan ese NEC NEC Corporation , Renugopalakrishnan s team created a prototype device and estimated in July, 2006 that a USB disk would be commercialised in 12 months and a DVD in 18 to 24 months. ref cite web date July 11, 2006 url http www.getusb.info 50 terabyte flash drive made of bug protein title 50 terabyte flash drive made of bug protein author Richard Blanchard publisher GetUSB info & ABC News Australia accessdate 17 Mar 2012 ref ref cite web date July 12, 2006 title New Research Promises 50TB on DVD size Discs author Tuan Nguyen url http www.dailytech.com Article.aspx?newsid 3265 publisher DailyTech ref The technology uses the photosynthetic pigment bacteriorhodopsin created from bacteria.

Dodge disc or dodge Frisbee after the trademarked brand name is a flying disc game, based on dodgeball but using a disc in place of the ball or balls. As in dodgeball, if a player is hit by a disc and fails to catch it, then the player is out and exits the field of play. If a player catches the thrown disc without its touching the ground, either before or after being hit by it, or before or after it hits another player, then the player who threw the disc is out instead. The game ends when there is only one player left. The game usually ends with a shootout between two players, each with several discs. The final players tend to execute several simultaneous attacks until one is hit without catching a disc thrown by the opponent. A variant of the game, Dodgebee, is a trademark of Hero Discs. The Dodgebee disc is very soft, and thus can be thrown very fast without injuring any of the players.
