Yes, I know, I have already reported on this several times. So I’d like to start with a quote attributed to Winston Churchill. “Americans find the best possible solution to every problem after they have tried everything else.” Churchill was…
Scientists from Queen Mary University of London have cracked a major barrier in electric vehicle (EV) technology, successfully suppressing lithium plating and increasing charging speed. Lithium plating, a common issue during fast charging, shortens battery life and can even pose…
The global semiconductor industry has become a focal point of geopolitical tensions in recent years, with Europe emerging as a critical battleground. A new report by Strider Technologies sheds light on China’s systematic and organized efforts to obtain intellectual property…
In the ongoing saga of chip supremacy, Nvidia, a prominent US chip manufacturer, has sounded the alarm on the potential “permanent loss” that American companies could face due to extended US export restrictions on China. The rationale behind these export…
Despite the promise of universal connectivity, the realm of USB-C is tangled in a web of compatibility issues, variable charging rates, and transfer speeds. USB-C is not one standard, it is a family of standards which share a connector. Not…
The ten winners have been chosen and are already warming up for their stage performance. The drinks and food have been ordered (all vegetarian – if you keep writing about a world in transition, it serves no goal to act…
In a remarkable stride forward for neuroscience and artificial intelligence, researchers from UC San Francisco and UC Berkeley have developed a brain-computer interface (BCI) that enables a paralysed woman to communicate through a digital avatar. The system decodes brain signals…
As Northvolt assembles its first battery systems at Northvolt Dwa in Poland, the company raised $1.2 billion to finance plans for its further European and North American expansion. The funding is an extension of the $1.1 billion convertible note signed…
In a pioneering development, MIT researchers have created a novel algorithm for aerobatic trajectory generation in vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) tailsitter flying wing aircraft. The researchers published their findings in IEEE Xplore. Differing significantly from existing fixed-wing trajectory generation…
Researchers at Radboudumc have found that the adversities we go through trigger lasting changes in our brains and are linked to anxiety symptoms. These findings could help predict who is more at risk of developing psychiatric disorders. The impact of…
