The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has recently introduced a groundbreaking approach for detecting defects in additively manufactured components. This method aims to address the challenge of identifying flaws in components produced through additive manufacturing, which can be intricate and difficult to examine due to their complex three-dimensional shapes and concealed internal features. The innovative technology
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not just a buzzword in the aviation industry; it is a game-changer that is already transforming the way airlines operate. According to industry experts, AI is a fantastic tool for the aviation sector, providing new ways to boost productivity and gain a competitive edge. Geoffrey Weston, a top consultant at Bain
Metal halide perovskites, known for their remarkable optoelectronic properties, have emerged as promising candidates for the development of cost-effective thin-film transistors. Recent studies focusing on tin (Sn) halide perovskites have successfully fabricated p-type transistors with impressive field-effect hole mobilities exceeding 70 cm2 V−1 s−1. However, the challenge lies in the development of n-type transistors with
The upcoming tech expo in Taiwan, Computex, is generating significant buzz in the chipmaking and artificial intelligence industries. This year’s edition will see the presence of key players such as Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm, and Intel, with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang poised to deliver a highly anticipated keynote speech. Huang’s roots in Taiwan have elevated his
As Japan experiences a surge in tourists, one of the country’s most sought-after luxuries is gaining worldwide attention – the high-tech bidet toilet. Renowned for their warm seats and intricate spray technology, bidet toilets are a common feature in more than 80% of Japanese households. Sales of these high-tech toilets are on the rise internationally,
In the realm of robotics, the potential of teams of robots working together has been a topic of great interest. The idea of multiple robots collaborating to accomplish complex missions opens up a plethora of possibilities, such as covering vast distances in shorter timeframes, exploring multiple sites simultaneously, or monitoring large geographical areas effectively. Recent
Artificial intelligence has taken a significant leap forward with the unveiling of the “Correction and Planning with Memory Integration” (CPMI) framework by researchers at Shanghai University. This innovative approach leverages large language models (LLMs) to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of robots in executing complex, instruction-based tasks. Traditionally, robots have struggled with unexpected challenges and
The Australian government is currently investigating claims made by a hacking group known as ShinyHunters, who have allegedly stolen the information of 560 million customers from the global events giant Ticketmaster. The stolen data reportedly includes names, addresses, phone numbers, and partial credit card details of the customers. The group has offered to sell the
When artificial intelligence (AI) is embraced, systemic issues can jeopardize women’s safety, and prevalent gender biases in commonly used AI systems can impede the positive utilization of AI in the realm of peace and security in South-East Asia. The women human rights defenders (WHRDs) and women’s Civil Society Organizations (WCSOs) in the area are particularly
