Samsung has unpacked its Galaxy S series phones for 2022, spruiking the usual crop of improvements and new features. So are they worth the upgrade from last year’s models? New Atlas compares the specs and features of the Galaxy S22, S22+ and S22 Ultra … Continue reading Samsung Galaxy S22, S22+ and S22 Ultra vs. Galaxy S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra
Astronomers had a tense few days in January, as a newly discovered space rock became the riskiest asteroid in a decade – and then hid behind the Moon for a week. Thankfully, further observations have now found that it poses no risk to Earth when it swi… Continue reading The tense journey from “riskiest asteroid in a decade” to no threat
Researchers have built an artificial retina out of perovskite materials that can detect light in a similar fashion to the human eye. In tests, the device was even able to recognize handwritten numbers.Continue ReadingCategory: Electronics, ScienceTags:… Continue reading Perovskite artificial retina can read handwritten numbers

Nature is a never-ending source of inspiration for scientists, but our artificial devices usually don’t communicate well with the real thing. Now, researchers at Linköping University have created artificial organic neurons and synapses that can integra… Continue reading Artificial neurons connect to biological ones to control living plants
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are poised to become one of the most pressing health problems in coming decades, with these superbugs predicted to claim up to 10 million lives a year by 2050. Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have found a … Continue reading New superbug treatment disables drug resistance in deadly bacteria
Continuing its drip feeding of details about the PlayStation VR2, Sony has finally revealed what the next-gen headset will actually look like.

“My whole life flashed before my eyes” is a phrase we often hear regarding near-death experiences – and there just might be some truth to it. Scientists have recorded the activity of a dying human brain for the first time ever, revealing brain wave pat… Continue reading First-ever recording of dying human brain reveals dreaming-like activity
Regrowing or replacing bone lost to disease is tricky and often painful. In a new study Australian researchers have found a relatively simple way to induce stem cells to turn into bone cells quickly and efficiently, using high-frequency sound waves.Con… Continue reading Sound waves convert stem cells into bone in regenerative breakthrough
Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a strange new nanocrystal material that can switch between gel and liquid states in response to temperature or other triggers. This could be used to make light filters or even active therm… Continue reading State-switching nanocrystal gel makes for cooling or thermal camouflage
