Imagine this: a biobattery fueled by the human gut. What about a battery that could work after 100 years? Sound like science fiction? It's not. Last year, researchers at Binghamton University and State University of New York published…

Gartner, Inc. identified the top 10 government technology trends for 2023 that can guide public sector leaders in accelerating transformation as they prepare for post-digital government. Government CIOs should consider the impact of …

Mitsubishi has developed technology that detects serious physical conditions experienced by vehicle drivers, including loss of consciousness. The technology estimates pulse rate, changes in blood pressure, and other biometric data collected…

Elon Musk said he plans to launch an artificial intelligence (AI) platform called "TruthGPT," challenging Microsoft and Google. Musk has been open about his concerns regarding OpenAI training ChatGPT to lie. OpenAI is no longer an open…

If you're an AI expert drawn to everything about space, here's a challenge for you. The Ariel Data Challenge 2023 is inviting AI and machine learning experts from industry and academia to help astronomers understand exoplanets. Dr. Ingo…

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has been unlocking many mysteries, and now it's finding multiple galaxies that grew massive too soon after the Big Bang if the standard model of cosmology is to be believed. In a study published in …

Researchers from the University of Manchester report record-high magnetoresistance in graphene under ambient conditions, publishing their findings in Nature. Potential applications include vehicles and computers with multiple tiny magnetic…

Optical manipulation of material properties could bring about new functions. For example, exciting electrons with strong light can lead to exotic quantum effects. The periodic perturbations from the strong light field cause electrons to…

China is moving to regulate artificial intelligence (AI). Under draft regulations released this week, Chinese tech companies must register generative AI products with China’s cyberspace agency and submit them for a security assessment…

I recently wrote an article on an individual achieving an award from a professional organization based on their commitment and delivery to the organization and their industry segment. I asked him why individuals/companies join such an…

The University of Cambridge researchers have created a low-cost and energy-efficient robotic hand that grasps a range of objects without dropping them. Their success lies in using just the movement of its wrist and the feeling in its…

Electronic noses, or e-noses, are systems that combine chemical gas sensors, signal processing, and machine learning algorithms to mimic the sense of smell. E-noses can be used for checking food quality, monitoring air pollution, diagnosing…

A NASA instrument designed to provide unprecedented resolution in monitoring major air pollutants (down to four square miles) was launched on April 7. The Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) instrument will help improve…

Duke University engineers produced the world’s first fully recyclable printed electronics, replacing chemicals with water in the fabrication process. The industry could substantially reduce its environmental footprint and human health risks…

Space is always at a premium inside cars, planes, machines, and devices. Overall, weight is another consistent challenge. A research team at Saarland University and the Center for Mechatronics and Automation Technology (ZeMA) in Saarbrücken…
