Welcome to today's tech update! Researchers from The University of Texas at Dallas and Seoul National University have developed an imager chip that brings Superman's X-ray vision to your pocket! This revolutionary chip can see inside…

A lot of people got into houseplants during the pandemic. I was among them. One of the things I learned was the importance of fertilizing. My daughter, a biologist, would bring me nutrient-rich water when she cleaned her aquarium so I could…

Nvidia just signed a deal with Qatari telecoms group, Ooredoo, allowing the company to use its AI technology in data centers in five Middle Eastern Countries. This is Nvidia's first big launch in a region where the Biden Administration …

Gas separation is essential for industries, from medical applications like extracting nitrogen and oxygen to carbon capture and natural gas purification. Traditional methods, such as cooling air to separate oxygen and nitrogen, are…

Who eats tree bark, dead wood, and ferns with antibiotic and anti-inflammatory effects? Chimpanzees. Chimpanzees seek out plants' medicinal properties to treat themselves when sick, according to a study published in the journal PLOS ONE …

Scientists in China claim a game-changing development in batteries. The drawback of current lithium-ion batteries is safety. Although lithium-ion batteries are typically safe from fire unless severely damaged, cheaper "off-market" units…

Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) developed a way to study electrochemical processes at the atomic level with unprecedented resolution, resulting in new insights into a popular catalyst material. They…

How do you feel about making technology standards that prevent you from speeding in your vehicle? It surprised me that, according to a new Insurance Institute for Highway Safety survey, most American drivers would be okay with it. The…

Mitsubishi's robot, TOKUFASTbot, has taken on the Rubik's Cube, and set a new world record in the process. Breaking the 3.13-second record for solving the Rubik's Cube set by Max Park in 2023, the robot did it in only 0.305 seconds—that's…

A new intelligent photonic-sensing computing chip processes, transmits, and reconstructs images of a scene within nanoseconds. This will enable extremely high-speed image processing edge intelligence for machine vision apps, including…
