A 100-year-old physics problem has been solved at EPFL

“EPFL researchers have found a way around what was considered a fundamental limitation of physics for over 100 years. They were able to conceive resonant systems that can store electromagnetic waves over a long period of time while maintaining a …

A PSoC-Based Digital Load Box

“If you’ve ever had to build a power supply, you may have needed to test it to a certain current limit. Too often, the way to do this is by stacking up large wattage resistors in series and parallel …

Artificial intelligence suggests recipes based on food photos

“There are few things social media users love more than flooding their feeds with photos of food. Yet we seldom use these images for much more than a quick scroll on our cellphones. Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and …

Elon Musk says he has a green light to build a NY–Philly–Baltimore–DC hyperloop

“Elon Musk just tweeted that his Boring Company tunnel project has received “verbal [government] approval” to build a hyperloop connecting New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, DC. While we work to verify his claim, Musk is continuing to tweet …

ESP8266 Basement Monitor

“My basement gets wet when it rains a lot so I wanted a way to monitor it. I decided to try using an ESP8266 as it has built in WiFi. I paired that with a DHT22 Humidity & Temperature Sensor and …

“Since the last Guardian Robot project, we’ve gotten a number of requests to add a servo and LED to the head – In this project, we’ll show you how to do that! Mounted to the eye is a 10mm …

Intel Democratizes Deep Learning Application Development with Launch of Movidius Neural Compute Stick

“Today, Intel launched the Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick, the world’s first USB-based deep learning inference kit and self-contained artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator that delivers dedicated deep neural network processing capabilities to a wide range of host devices at …

July 20, 1969: One Giant Leap For Mankind

“July 1969. It’s a little over eight years since the flights of Gagarin and Shepard, followed quickly by President Kennedy’s challenge to put a man on the moon before the decade is out. It is only seven months …

New experiment confirms violation of Bell’s inequality

“Physicists led by Professor Harald Weinfurter and Dr. Wenjamin Rosenfeld have carried out measurements to test Bell’s inequality. Their results clearly contradict certain fundamental assumptions of classical physics. The study appears in the journal Physical Review Letters. “Nature is …
