Researchers at Australia’s CSIRO have demonstrated a new way to protect the integrity of vaccines against high temperatures. A proof-of-concept study has shown the method keeping vaccines viable at temperatures up to 37 degrees Celsius for three months… Continue reading New method allows vaccines to be stored for months without refrigeration
In order for it to be truly soft, a soft-bodied robot can’t contain any hard, rigid components. That’s why we’ve already seen soft batteries, circuits and actuators. Now, a squishy, stretchable thermometer has joined that list.Continue ReadingCategory:… Continue reading Stretchable, flexible thermometer could find use in soft robotics
While it’s possible to make pizza from scratch at home right down to the dough itself, it’ll be a struggle to replicate the taste and exquisite mouthfeel without a pizza …read more Continue reading Portable Pizza Oven Has Temperature Level Over 900
They say time is money, but if that’s true, money must also be time. It’s all figurative, of course, but in the case of this NTP server heater powered by …read more Continue reading Bitcoin Mining ASICs Repurposed to Keep NTP Server on Track
Although digital body-temperature thermometers may be easier to read than their analog counterparts, there’s always the chance that their battery will go flat between uses. That’s where the BCool thermometer comes in, as you just give it a few shakes t… Continue reading Capacitor-packin’ BCool digital thermometer has no need for a battery
The 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, for their work uncovering the receptors that allow us to perceive temperature and pressure.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, ScienceTags: No… Continue reading First 2021 Nobel Prize awarded to pioneers of biology behind touch
Quantum computers have the potential to drastically outperform traditional computers, but for now they’re mostly limited to labs and big experimental setups. Japanese researchers have now made a step towards more accessible quantum computing devices, f… Continue reading Twisted light makes for breakthrough quantum computer chip
Physicists in Germany have produced the coldest temperature ever recorded – a chilly 38 trillionths of a degree above absolute zero. The strange experiment involved dropping a quantum gas, and switching a magnetic field on and off to bring its atoms to… Continue reading Quantum gas free fall experiment creates coldest temperature ever recorded
Electronics, and batteries in particular, are vulnerable to very high or very low temperatures, but a new thermal switch could help deal with both. It’s made from (what else) graphene foam that can dynamically trap heat when it’s cold out, or allow hea… Continue reading Graphene foam “thermal switch” keeps batteries warm or cool on demand
