Technology

Needle-tip chip can secure pacemakers and insulin pumps against quantum attacks

April 23, 2026 Tech Xplore

As quantum computers advance, they are expected to be able to break tried-and-true security schemes that currently keep most sensitive data secure from attackers. Scientists and policymakers are working to design and implement post-quantum cryptography […]

Tiny, knotted robots jump, fly and plant seeds

April 23, 2026 Tech Xplore

When a knot lets go, it doesn’t just fall apart. It snaps. That simple observation led Penn Engineers to rethink what a knot can do. Instead of treating it as something that holds tension, they […]

Teaching AI models to say ‘I’m not sure’ in cases of calibration errors

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

Confidence is persuasive. In artificial intelligence systems, it is often misleading. Today’s most capable reasoning models share a trait with the loudest voice in the room: They deliver every answer with the same unshakable certainty, […]

Technology

Lasers turn parchment paper into high-performance electronic circuits

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

What if the next generation of disposable electronics—the sensors in your food packaging, the diagnostic strips in a medical clinic, the environmental monitors scattered across a farm—were built not on silicon or plastic, but on […]

How AI bias can creep into online content moderation

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

A University of Queensland study has shown large language models (LLMs) used in AI content moderation may be prone to subtle biases that undermine their neutrality. A team led by data scientist Professor Gianluca Demartini […]

Technology

Silicon photonics just gained a powerful new ally, and it could reshape next-generation data links

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

The popularity of cloud computing and AI—driving massive data flows—pushes demand for ultra-high-speed, energy-efficient optical links within and between data centers; links that must be able to deliver data rates well beyond today’s 200Gb/s standard. […]

This vibrating pillow makes nighttime emergencies impossible to sleep through

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

A smart pillow sleeve that vibrates to alert people who are deaf to fire and burglar alarms in the night has been created by scientists at Nottingham Trent University (NTU). Developed with members of the […]

Technology

This simple solar cell manufacturing tweak could solve perovskites’ biggest weakness

April 22, 2026 Tech Xplore

A technique that improves the performance and stability of next-generation solar cells—without adding any chemicals or coatings—has been demonstrated by researchers from Korea University and the University of Surrey.This article was originally published on this […]
