A patent from Nokia — featured in the latest patent round-up from New Scientist — describes a way of infusing plastic cases with a material, structurally similar to diamond, made from coal.

The article also touches on a technique for welding with 'ice bullets', and an airport scanner that protects the dignity of travelers."
