The world's largest 3D printer creates nearly zero-cost homes out of mud

WASP has built the world's largest delta-style 3D printer that can build full-size buildings out of mud and clay for nearly zero cost.

Hydrogen molecule falls to quantum computer

We are at the beginning of a revolution. Quantum computer calculates ground state of hydrogen with just two qubits.

Wi-fi from lasers

New fabrication of white light makes data transfer up to 20x faster. Soon we could use normal lighting for our wireless connectivity.

Remote control : LoRa offers a cheaper link to the Internet of Things

The future of communications may be 5G, where mobile networks push bandwidth-heavy video to phones and pull data from self-driving cars, but some firms see an alternative - a technology called LoRa.

Scientists develop small, reprogrammable quantum computer

Quantum computing has hit another milestone, US researchers say, with the development of a computer that can solve three algorithms and be reprogrammed.

Self-Driving Taxis Schedule To Be Released In Singapore

A pilot project for self-driven taxis in Singapore is scheduled to be released early next year. As such, it becomes one of the first projects to implements real-world tests, on auto-self drive with no direct human influence.

Scientists develop new self-movable humanoid robot

Japanese scientists have developed a new humanoid robot that can move naturally by itself utilising embedded neural network. Robot Alter has a ‘human-like’ face and is powered by 42 pneumatic actuators and a central pattern generator.

China Building a Supercomputer Much Faster Than Current World Record Holder

Right in the heels of bagging the title for the fastest supercomputer in the world, Chinese scientists are already building a new machine that will vastly surpass their current record holder.

Ultrathin, transparent oxide thin-film transistors developed for wearable display

Ultrathin and transparent oxide thin-film transistors have been developed for an active-matrix backplane of a flexible display by using the inorganic-based laser lift-off method.

Ray Kurzweil: To Merge With Technology Is to Enhance Our Humanity

Technological shifts outpace our awareness of them. While we're busy with our day-to-day lives—getting a new smartphone or downloading the next updates—we often don't notice how these incremental changes shape our relationship with technology.

China's new quantum satellite paves the way for unhackable satellite internet

CHINA is on the brink of launching a groundbreaking new satellite capable of conducting quantum experiments in space, leading some to predict it will usher in the beginning of a new space race.

New movie screen allows for glasses-free 3-D at a larger scale

A team from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) and Israel’s Weizmann Institute of Science have demonstrated a display that lets audiences watch 3-D films in a movie theater without extra eyewear.

Facebook's solar-powered internet drone takes flight

Facebook’s solar-powered drone has completed a successful test flight.

Google's DeepMind AI to use 1 million NHS eye scans to spot diseases earlier

The five-year research project will draw on one million anonymous eye scans which are held on Moorfields’ patient database, with the aim to speed up the complex and time-consuming process of analysing eye scans.

Smallest hard disk to date writes information atom by atom

Every day, modern society creates more than a billion gigabytes of new data. To store all this data, it is increasingly important that each single bit occupies as little space as possible. A team of scientists managed to bring this reduction to the ultimate limit.
