Computers

Deep AI training gets more stable by predicting its own errors

March 9, 2026 Tech Xplore

Artificial intelligence now plays Go, paints pictures, and even converses like a human. However, there remains a decisive difference: AI requires far more electricity than the human brain to operate. Scientists have long asked the […]

For precision tech, a hydrogen-tuned crystal could cancel thermal expansion

March 9, 2026 Tech Xplore

Scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University have discovered that a hydrogen-absorbing material shrinks in one direction upon heating, so-called negative thermal expansion (NTE). They found that this NTE is driven by a phase transition in the […]

Liquid-metal pupil helps an artificial eye adapt to sudden light changes

March 6, 2026 Tech Xplore

Computer vision technologies are artificial intelligence (AI)-powered systems that can capture, analyze, and interpret visual data captured from real-world environments. While these systems are now widely used, many of them perform poorly under some lighting […]

Technology

Carbon nanotube fiber ‘textile’ heaters could help industry electrify high-temperature gas heating

March 6, 2026 Tech Xplore

A cross-disciplinary team at Rice University has developed a new type of electric heating element—one that looks less like a traditional metal coil and more like a high-performance thread. In a study published in Small, […]

Technology

Ultrasonic sensor eliminates inspection blind spots in extreme environments

March 5, 2026 Tech Xplore

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed an ultrasonic sensor technology that applies a waveguide to detect defects in all directions without directly attaching sensors to the inspection target. By enabling […]
