Quantum Computer Made from Photons Achieves a New Record

“The limited system made a notable advancement on the road to beating classical machines. In the race to create a quantum computer that can outperform a classical one, a method using particles of light (photons) has taken a promising step …

Research team lays groundwork for nanoscale particle discoveries

“Materials made from nanoscale particles, ranging in size from a few atoms up to less than one-percent of the width of a human hair, create opportunities to design new functional materials having unique responses to external stimuli, such as light …

Researchers have developed self-healing soft electronics

“While flexible electronics can pose certain advantages, they are often subject to a rather short life, and can be difficult if not impossible to repair. As a solution to this conundrum, researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of …

Smart Dustbin with Garbage Level Monitoring

“An advanced smart dustbin project. Hey all! How’s you doing? Ever wondered making Smart Dustbin that monitors garbage level..?? I am back with a similar type of project. In this video I made Smart Dustbin that open and closes …

Spiders and ants inspire metal that won’t sink

“University of Rochester researchers, inspired by diving bell spiders and rafts of fire ants, have created a metallic structure that is so water repellent, it refuses to sink—no matter how often it is forced into water or how much …

Starlink Mission

“SpaceX is targeting Monday, November 11 at 9:56 a.m. EST, 14:56 UTC, for launch of 60 Starlink satellites from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. A backup launch opportunity is …

Structured light promises path to faster, more secure communications

“Quantum mechanics is embracing patterns of light to create an alphabet that can be leveraged to build a light-based quantum network. Structured light is a fancy way to describe patterns or pictures of light, but deservedly so as it promises …

syncing time via VGA

“The title is slightly misleading :-) What it really is, and this is a TL;DR too: PPS via Arduino into the I2C pins of a VGA connector of a Linux-running-PC which then gets interfaced to NTPd. how As described …

Thorium superconductivity: scientists discover a new high-temperature superconductor

“A group of scientists led by Artem Oganov, Professor at Skoltech and MIPT, and Dr. Ivan Troyan at the Institute of Crystallography of RAS have succeeded in synthesizing thorium decahydride (ThH10), a new superconducting material with a very high critical …

TipText Lets You Enter Text Using Thumb-Tip Gestures

“TipText features a tiny 2 x 3 grid QWERTY keyboard wrapped around the index finger. Engineers from Dartmouth College, City University of Hong Kong, Saarland University, and Stony Brook University have designed an eyes-free text entry platform that uses a …
