ELECTRONICS December 11, 2019 Scientists Just Created Quantum States in Everyday Electronics
By: Loknath DasQuantum computing has the potential to revolutionise the processing power at our fingertips, but for the moment a lot of it is just potential. Researchers have been uncertain on whether we’ll ever be able to harness quantum computing in a practical, affordable, realistic way. But we might have an exciting new lead. Two new studies show how quantum […]
ELECTRONICS November 11, 2018 Battery Fashion: Scientists Weave Rechargeable Electronics Into Clothes
By: Loknath DasWearable electronics are nothing new, but the technology has been limited by the question of how to power them for long periods without toting around a bulky charge storing device. Not any longer. Thanks to UMass Amherst materials scientist Trisha L. Andrew, a battery can now be stitched directly into your lapel. Andrew and her […]
ELECTRONICS July 17, 2017 Stanford scientists unveil ultra-thin electronics that can dissolve into the body
By: Loknath DasA group of scientists from California have developed a series of organic electronic components that will harmlessly dissolve into their environment after use. Led by Stanford Professor of Chemical Engineering Zhenan Bao, the team’s inventions include a biodegradable semi-conductive polymer, disintegrable and flexible electronic circuits, and a biodegradable substrate material for mounting these electrical components onto. Totally flexible and biocompatible, […]
CLOTHING April 24, 2017 Stanford University scientists make cool clothing
By: Loknath DasScientists from the Stanford University have engineered a low-cost plastic material that could result in clothing that cools the wearer, reducing the need for energy-consuming air conditioning in hot climates. The material works by allowing the body to discharge heat in two ways, making the wearer feel nearly four degrees Fahrenheit cooler. The research, carried […]
ALL DEALS May 27, 2016 German scientists are training robots to ‘experience’ pain
By: sristy Sahaache is important. It triggers an appropriate response to save you even more accidents or maybe tosave your life. a couple of German researchers suppose so too, so they’re running on a manner to make robots “feel” — or, greater accurately, to detect and reply to — pain. That way, they are able to moveaway […]
NEWS April 13, 2016 Scientists Discover Hot Super-Earths Being Stripped by Host Stars
By: sristy SahaUsing data from Nasa’s Kepler space telescope, astrophysicists from the University of Birmingham have discovered extra-solar planets whose atmospheres have been stripped away by their host stars. According to them, planets with gaseous atmospheres that lie very close to their host stars are bombarded by a torrent of high-energy radiation. Due to their proximity to […]
NEWS March 22, 2016 Google Mastered a Game That Vexed Scientists – and Their Machines – for Decades
By: sristy SahaArtificial intelligence took a historic step forward last week when a Google team announced that it taught a machine to master the ancient Chinese game Go, a feat researchers have chased for decades. While computers learned to outclass humans at checkers and chess in the ’90s, Go – a 2,500-year-old game – was still vexing […]
