The APEC 2023 Professional Education Seminars program is finalized. The seminars deliver in-depth discussions on complex power electronics topics and will be held Sunday and Monday, March 19-20, before the exhibition opens. Covering topics…

AI models are exploding. In virtually every industry, deep learning involves image processing, natural language processing, and recommendation systems. The ability of AI to use personal data that infringes on privacy rights is increasing,…

Octopus arms have almost infinite degrees of freedom and perform complex movements such as reaching, grasping, fetching, crawling, and swimming. The abilities come from the intricate organization and biomechanics of the internal muscles.…

Russia launched a rescue ship to the International Space Station for two cosmonauts and a NASA astronaut after their original ship sprang a leak while parked at the ISS. In December, there was a capsule leak said to be caused by a…

MedUX announced the release of its 5G QoE Benchmarking Report in Europe, which they will present at the Mobile World Congress in Spain Pavilion. It highlights key findings on the performance and end-user experience of 5G networks in major…

Microsoft's Bing search engine played second fiddle to Google's. However, now it is AI-enhanced and has great search results—and bizarre comments. According to an ABC News story, AI chatbots are saying they want to release nuclear secrets,…

It seems that infants can detect what motivates other people's actions, outperforming AI at the same task. A study performed by researchers at New York University shows the fundamental differences between cognition and computation and where…

Volkswagen Group Technology unveiled pending electric car innovations in batteries, charging, and electronic components, with a focus on the electric drive system of the future. In addition to batteries and electric motors, Volkswagen is…

For the first time, University of Wisconsin–Madison researchers directly measured the fluid-like flow of electrons in Graphene at nanometer resolution. They published their results in Journal Science. Graphene’s atom-thick sheet of…

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) developed an innovative software tool to assemble complete (gapless) genome sequences from various species. Dubbed Verkko, “network” in Finnish, the tool makes creating the sequences…

Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research and the Heidelberg University announced the creation of a new technology designed to assemble matter in 3D. They based their research on using multiple acoustic holograms to…

Ford stopped production of its top-selling electric pickup, the F-150 Lightning. Pre-delivery vehicle inspections discovered a possible battery problem. According to Ford, this doesn't apply to you if your Lightning is sitting at the…

Spain is the first country to lead a global network of autonomous observatories. The BOOTES network performs space surveillance and the study of transient cosmic phenomena. The U.S. and Russia, among others, have similar projects that are…

There’s some noise in every quantum system that can cause unavoidable errors. They typically use “parametric” amplification to “squeeze” or decrease the noise affecting one variable while increasing the noise that affects its conjugate…

A recent Nature Energy paper reports progress toward lithium-metal batteries that can charge in about an hour based on quickly grown lithium metal crystals. Using a crystal growing surface that lithium doesn't "like," the seed crystals grow…
