Tech Xplore / Noninvasive AI-based system translates brain signals into written text
Some physical injuries and neurological conditions can temporarily or permanently impair movement, leaving some people unable to speak, type on keyboards or use electronic devices. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), systems ...
Tech Xplore / Adaptive decision support can fight overreliance on AI
From doctors diagnosing symptoms to judges intervening in court cases, humans make complex decisions every day. Increasingly, artificial intelligence tools are being used to help with those decisions.
Tech Xplore / Connected-grid AI could reduce blackout risk with more precise power predictions
A new artificial intelligence tool developed by researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and Florida State University's Center for Advanced Power Systems could help make electric grids more reliable and reduce operating ...
Tech Xplore / Turning molecules into reliable electronic devices with a new fabrication platform
Molecules are among the smallest building blocks available for making next-generation devices. Their unique, customizable properties enable promising applications in emerging computing, sensing, optical and quantum technologies.
Tech Xplore / Adaptive organic transistor for wearable electronics switches roles as salt concentration changes
Wearable electronics are gradually evolving from simple sensors into feature-rich devices that can make basic decisions and support medical care in real time. To fully realize this vision, wearable systems must be soft and ...
Tech Xplore / Existing power grids draw data centers to cities, study finds
When people picture a data center, they often imagine something remote: a huge warehouse humming quietly far from the city. New research from NYU Tandon School of Engineering shows that assumption is largely wrong.
Tech Xplore / AI reduces sensory hallucinations, even at night or in smoke
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs), which process multiple types of sensory information, such as text, images and audio, at the same time, are rapidly expanding the range of applications for artificial intelligence ...
Tech Xplore / Ion pumping platform simultaneously cleans salty wastewater and recovers valuable metals
Industrial wastewater from electronics manufacturing, metal processing and other sectors often contains two difficult pollutants at once: high levels of salt and toxic heavy metals. Current treatment methods typically address ...
Tech Xplore / Popular vs. reliable sources—a blind spot in how LLMs assess information
Large language models (LLMs), the artificial intelligence (AI) systems underpinning ChatGPT and similar conversational platforms, are now used by many people worldwide to find and summarize information and generate different ...
Tech Xplore / Massive quantities of undeclared uranium are exported from the DRC, study reveals
University of Wisconsin–Madison and Princeton University nuclear engineers have identified a major blind spot in nuclear accounting with global nuclear security implications.
Tech Xplore / Muscle radar unlocks potential for future robotic limbs
University of Queensland researchers have developed new noninvasive sensors that measure muscle forces, unlocking new possibilities for wearable robotic mobility devices. Ultra-wideband radar sensors measure electromagnetic ...
Tech Xplore / New microwave neural network method could compress and secure wireless communications
One year after unveiling a first-of-its-kind "microwave brain" microchip capable of computing on ultrafast data and wireless signals, researchers from the Cornell Duffield College of Engineering have shown how the chip can ...
