New quantum approach to big data Geeta | 29/01/2015 Machine learning systems can help researchers deal with this ever-growing flood of information. Some of the most powerful of these analytical tools are based on a strange branch of geometry called topology, which deals with properties that stay the same even when something is bent and stretched every which way. Continue reading New quantum approach to big data
Diesel Is Now Better Than Gas Modern diesel cars emit less pollution generally than cars that run on gasoline, says a new six-nation study published today in Scientific Reports whose groundwork was laid in part by an American chemist now working at Université de Montréal. And since diesel is so much cleaner than before, environmental regulators should increasingly shift their focus to dirtier gasoline-powered cars and other … Continue reading Diesel Is Now Better Than Gas
BRIEF: 5G Internet is the Next Big Thing in Light Pollution The fast-growing next-gen mobile network may threaten future radio astronomers’ ability to detect signals from space During last week’s American Astronomical Society meeting in National Harbor, Maryland, astronomers detailed the rise of a new and unexpected source of light pollution: radio waves. Although the human eye can’t see them, the waves are an important … Continue reading BRIEF: 5G Internet is the Next Big Thing in Light Pollution
Will Passengers Ever Fly on Pilotless Planes? The technology is progressing quickly, but the main challenge may be overcoming our fears. Autonomous cars from companies like Google, Uber and Tesla will soon become commonplace on our roads, according to some experts, and aircraft manufacturers are betting that it will only be a matter of time before the skies are filled with autonomous planes as well. … Continue reading Will Passengers Ever Fly on Pilotless Planes?
A New Way of Making Plastic Could Help Boost Recycling An improved process for recycling plastic, researchers say, might lead the world to view the material as a valuable raw material rather than waste. BY MATT SMITH PUBLISHED ON 04/26/2018 A new process for making plastics might help break down one of the barriers to recycling, researchers at a Colorado university say. Plastics are formed … Continue reading A New Way of Making Plastic Could Help Boost Recycling
Street Lighting With Glowing Trees Technology, 27 Jan – 2018 , Posted by : Dr. S. S. VERMA; Dept. of Physics, S.L.I.E.T., Longowal; Distt.-Sangrur (Punjab)-148 106 Ever increasing day and night movement activities of mankind irrespective to their urban or rural base greatly need street lighting for their safe night movements all around. Electricity based street lighting facilities are an integral part of urban town planning … Continue reading Street Lighting With Glowing Trees
New A.I. application can write its own code Computer scientists have created a deep-learning, software-coding application that can help human programmers navigate the growing multitude of often-undocumented application programming interfaces, or APIs. Designing applications that can program computers is a long-sought grail of the branch of computer science called artificial intelligence (AI). The new application, called Bayou, came out of an initiative aimed at extracting … Continue reading New A.I. application can write its own code
This new device may give humans ‘cat-like hearing’ Scientists are developing an atomically thin device that could receive and transmit signals across a radio frequency range far greater than what humans can hear. The “drumhead” device being developed by researchers at Case Western Reserve University in the US is trillion times smaller in volume and 100,000 times thinner than the human eardrum. The advance may lead to … Continue reading This new device may give humans ‘cat-like hearing’
New carbon fibre artificial muscles can lift 12,600 times their weight Scientists have designed new carbon fibre-based artificial muscles capable of lifting up to 12,600 times their own weight. The strong muscles are made from carbon fibre-reinforced siloxane rubber and have a coiled geometry. When electrically actuated, the artificial muscles show excellent performance without requiring a high input voltage, according to the study published in … Continue reading New carbon fibre artificial muscles can lift 12,600 times their weight
Solar cells that work in low light could charge devices indoors By Robert F. Service Apr. 23, 2018 Imagine never having to charge your phone, e-reader, or tablet again. Researchers report that they have created solar cells that work at a record efficiency for making electricity from the low-intensity diffuse light that is present inside buildings and outside on cloudy days. The solar cells could one … Continue reading Solar cells that work in low light could charge devices indoors
