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 […]

Are Google’s ‘preferred sources’ a good thing for online news?

March 5, 2026 Tech Xplore

Why do you see the results you do when you search for information online? It’s a complex mix of what the source is, its relationships to other sources online, and your own past browsing history […]

Technology

Photonic chips advance real-time learning in spiking neural systems

March 5, 2026 Tech Xplore

Researchers have developed photonic computing chips that overcome key limitations for a type of neural network known as a photonic spiking neural system. By enabling fast learning and decision making using purely light-based processes—no electronics-based […]

Technology

AI and 3D printing help researchers create heat‑ and pressure‑resistant materials for aerospace and defense applications

March 4, 2026 Tech Xplore

From hypersonic aircraft to nuclear-powered submarines, many of today’s most advanced defense systems rely on a special class of materials known as refractory alloys. This class refers to metals that do not melt or weaken […]

Technology

Heavy-metal-free quantum dots hit record solar hydrogen photocurrent of 15.1 mA/cm²

March 4, 2026 Tech Xplore

A research team has developed a technology to precisely control the concentration of anion defects in eco-friendly quantum dots through joint research. Through this technology, the research team achieved world-class solar hydrogen production efficiency in […]

Technology

Next-generation memory material has the surprising property of shrinking when heated

March 3, 2026 Tech Xplore

Most materials we use in everyday life expand slightly when heated and return to their original size when cooled. In addition to such thermal properties, materials can also have electrical properties or magnetic properties, and […]
