Ever wondered how to speed up radar systems without breaking the bank? Well, an innovative team has found an answer: using Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) in a clever way. Traditional FPGA-based radars often struggle with low processing speeds, which leads to lost data. But this new approach
Scientists have been exploring how different sensors can help in the diagnosis and treatment of common cancers like breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate. By diving into research articles from 1991 to 2021, they found that biosensors are crucial in all these types of cancer. Electrochemical sensors
Former President Trump brought back an old plan to make it simpler to fire federal employees who shape policies. He wants to take away their civil service protections and says it will make the government workforce more accountable. This isn't the first time Trump has tried this. He did it in 2020, b
On his first full day back in office, Donald Trump gathered influential tech figures like Oracle's Larry Ellison, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and SoftBank's Masayoshi Son. They had a big plan up their sleeves: a $500 billion AI project called Stargate. This isn't just any AI project; it's about creating en
California-based space company Rocket Lab is all set to launch more hypersonic test vehicles for the U. S. Military. This comes as the Department of Defense (DOD) continues to invest heavily in hypersonic technology. Rocket Lab, known for its workhorse Electron launcher, is part of a team led by def
Silica is famous for its tiny holes, or pores. These pores can be as small as 5-10 nanometers. Understanding these pores is crucial because they can be used in many ways. In this study, scientists made silica with different methods, like using chemicals or tiny particles in the air. They then used s
Could we be entering an era where life-changing drugs like Wegovy and Zepbound become commonplace? That's what former U. S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers suggested at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. He believes we're in a time of incredible technological possibilities that are dri
Everyone loves wireless earbuds, but they sometimes fall short when we stream high-quality music. Bluetooth isn't strong enough to handle hi-res lossless streams from services like Tidal or Qobuz. But, there's good news! Qualcomm has invented XPAN technology, which promises to bring WiFi earbuds to
Imagine if you could easily check your fruits for pesticides before you bite into them. Scientists have come up with a nifty solution: a mini sensor made from titanium carbide and carbon nanotubes. This tiny tool can detect a specific pesticide, paraoxon-ethyl, in both green and red grapes, even whe
OpenAI has something exciting on the horizon. In a few weeks, they're dropping a new AI model called o3 mini. This isn't just any model; it's designed to handle tough subjects like science, code, and math. The company's CEO, Sam Altman, shared the news, saying the model will be ready for users of AP
