Tech Xplore / Cyber-attacks could disrupt smart factories by targeting time itself
A cyber-attack does not always need to steal data or shut systems down to cause damage. Sometimes it only needs to shift the clock. Researchers at the University of East London (UEL), in collaboration with industry, have ...
Tech Xplore / Security vulnerabilities in Tesla's Model 3 and Cybertruck reveal how connected cars can be hacked
Hackers could exploit wireless systems in Tesla's Model 3 and Cybertruck to track vehicles, disrupt communications, and interfere with network performance, according to research from Northeastern University posted to the ...
Tech Xplore / New gel electrolyte points to stronger, safer anode-free lithium batteries
Researchers at Columbia Engineering have developed a new gel electrolyte that both improves the lifetime and safety of anode-free lithium batteries, an emerging battery architecture that could dramatically boost energy density ...
Tech Xplore / What does 'flexibility' actually look like? New findings suggest speed limits for wearable devices
Flexible electronics are often sold on a simple promise: bendable screens, lightweight solar cells or wearable devices that can bend and flex without breaking. But what does that "flexibility" actually look like at the molecular ...
Tech Xplore / 'Learn-to-Steer' method improves AI's ability to understand spatial instructions
Researchers from the Department of Computer Science at Bar-Ilan University and from NVIDIA's AI research center in Israel have developed a new method that significantly improves how artificial intelligence models understand ...
Tech Xplore / Parking-aware navigation system could prevent frustration and emissions
It happens every day—a motorist heading across town checks a navigation app to see how long the trip will take, but they find no parking spots available when they reach their destination. By the time they finally park and ...
Tech Xplore / Choosing experiments randomly can help scientists develop better theories, new model reveals
The race to develop a virtual scientist—an AI creation that conducts every stage of research, from idea to publication—has consumed researchers, start-up founders, and tech juggernauts alike.
Tech Xplore / OpenAI's Altman tells leaders regulation 'urgently' needed
The world urgently needs to regulate artificial intelligence, OpenAI head Sam Altman said Thursday at a summit in New Delhi to address the risks and opportunities posed by the fast-evolving technology.
Tech Xplore / Laser-etched glass can store data for 10,000 years, Microsoft says
Thousands of years from now, what will remain of our digital era? The ever-growing vastness of human knowledge is no longer stored in libraries, but on hard drives that struggle to last decades, let alone millennia.
Tech Xplore / 3D printing platform rapidly produces complex electric machines
A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a replacement part, they may have to order one from a distributor hundreds of miles away, leading to costly ...
Tech Xplore / New polymer alloy could solve energy storage challenge
In the race for lighter, safer and more efficient electronics—from electric vehicles to transcontinental energy grids—one component literally holds the power: the polymer capacitor. Seen in such applications as medical ...
Tech Xplore / Repairable infrared lens can cut costs and bring thermal imaging to more devices
The days of dropping a thermal imaging camera and replacing an expensive lens are coming to an end with a new repairable lens developed by Flinders University scientists. The high-performance lens for infrared cameras invented ...
