Tech Xplore / Quantum scheme protects videos from prying eyes and tampering
We have developed a new way to secure video transmissions so even quantum computers in the future won't be able to break into private video livestreams or recordings. We are computer scientists who study computer security. ...
Tech Xplore / New tool offers direct lighting control for photographs using 3D scene modeling
Lighting plays a crucial role when it comes to visual storytelling. Whether it's film or photography, creators spend countless hours, and often significant budgets, crafting the perfect illumination for their shot. But once ...
Tech Xplore / AI tools identify promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries for energy storage
Researchers from New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) have used artificial intelligence to tackle a critical problem facing the future of energy storage: finding affordable, sustainable alternatives to lithium-ion batteries.
Tech Xplore / Most US homes can save money and affordably weather blackouts with solar plus storage
Most U.S. households could reduce their electricity costs and endure power outages by installing rooftop solar panels and battery packs, according to a new Stanford University study, though people may need to buy the equipment ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers find new method for developing stronger, lighter 3D-printed parts
Engineers at the University of Maine are developing a new method to more accurately predict the strength of lightweight 3D-printed objects. This research, conducted at the university's Advanced Structures and Composites Center ...
Tech Xplore / Flexible optoelectronic device with minimal defects fabricated at just 90°C
Dr. Jung-Dae Kwon's research team at the Energy & Environmental Materials Research Division of the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) has successfully developed an amorphous silicon optoelectronic device with minimal ...
Tech Xplore / Scientists give robots a sense of touch with fabric that mimics human skin
Robots excel at many things, but having a good sense of touch is not among them. Whether dropping items or pinching them too tightly, which crushes the object, many robots struggle with these basic skills that humans have ...
Tech Xplore / New AI tool learns to read medical images with far less data
A new artificial intelligence (AI) tool could make it much easier—and cheaper—for doctors and researchers to train medical imaging software, even when only a small number of patient scans are available.
Tech Xplore / Experts outline evidence-based strategies for responsible AI policy development
As policymakers in the U.S. and globally consider how to govern artificial intelligence technology, Berkeley researchers have joined with others to recommend opportunities to develop evidence-based AI policy.
Tech Xplore / Google must open Android to rival app stores: US court
A US federal court ruled Thursday that Google must open its Android operating system to rival app stores, after the internet giant lost an appeal in an antitrust case filed by Fortnite maker Epic Games.
Tech Xplore / New strategy can directly pattern 2D materials into high-quality wafer-scale arrays
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, materials that can conduct electricity and are only a few atoms thick, are promising alternatives to the conventional silicon-based semiconductors currently used to fabricate many electronics. ...
Tech Xplore / Freestanding hafnium zirconium oxide membranes can enable advanced 2D transistors
To further reduce the size of electronic devices, while also improving their performance and energy efficiency, electronics engineers have been trying to identify alternative materials that outperform silicon and other conventional ...
