Leonardo UK has publicly rolled out its BriteStorm electronic warfare system that allows air forces to penetrate hostile airspace by creating phantom squadrons of fighter planes and missiles to jam and spoof radar defenses.Continue ReadingCategory: Mil… Continue reading Electronic warfare system creates fleets of phantom aircraft
An underreported regulation being proposed in the United States could have a sweeping impact on car drivers in the country, and possibly other parts of the West. But the people feeling its immediate sting will be American motorcyclists.Continue Reading… Continue reading US considering ban on ‘connected vehicle’ tech with China/Russia ties
Anyone sharing a home with a musician will appreciate advances in technology that make for quieter practice. Wearing headphones while playing electronic drums is already a good way to keep the noise down, but Roland’s latest release is claimed to deliv… Continue reading Roland declares war on in-room noise with V-Drums Quiet Design
Autonomous vehicles are said to be safer than human drivers – but would you trust a mushroom behind the wheel? A new kind of “biohybrid” robot moves in response to signals from the nervous system of a fungus.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, Technolo… Continue reading Fungus learns to drive in “biohybrid” robots
Diamond is more than a pretty face – it knows how to keep its cool, thanks to its excellent thermal conductivity. Now, engineers at Fraunhofer have taken advantage of that, using ultra-thin diamond membranes to drastically cool electronic components an… Continue reading Diamond nanomembranes make electronics 10x cooler, 5x faster to charge
Around this time last year, as part of its 50-year celebrations, California’s Drum Workshop announced the upcoming release of an acoustic/electronic drum set featuring wireless triggering tech. Now the DWe convertible kits have officially launched.Cont… Continue reading Acoustic/electronic drumkits cut cable clutter with wireless triggering
Scientists have found that a “superatomic” material is the fastest and most efficient semiconductor ever. Taking advantage of a tortoise-and-hare mechanism, the new material can transport energy much faster than silicon.Continue ReadingCategory: Electr… Continue reading “Superatomic” material beats silicon for fastest semiconductor ever
It seems there’s no end to surprises from everybody’s favorite wonder material, graphene. MIT physicists have now discovered yet another brand new electronic state hiding in this overachieving little material – something they give the bizarre name of “… Continue reading Bizarre new electronic state discovered in five-layer graphene
AI machine learning uses so much computing power and energy that it’s typically done in the cloud. But a new microtransistor, 100X more efficient than the current tech, promises to bring new levels of intelligence to mobile and wearable devices.Continu… Continue reading Ultra-efficient machine learning transistor cuts AI energy use by 99%
The estimated shipping date for successful Kickstarters can often prove to be a bit ambitious, but backers of the Oscilloscope Watch project are finally being rewarded for their patience – almost 10 years after the campaign ended.Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading Oscilloscope Watch nears end of epic 10-year development journey
