Playing violent video games may alter individuals’ perceptual processing. People who play violent games at least 5 hours a week are far less sensitive to emotionally negative content than those who don’t. Video games have become...
New passive cooling system provides effective cooling in hot environments without using any fuel-produced power. In dry environments, it can provide cooling of up to 40°C below the ambient temperature. It could supplement existing cooling systems...
Researchers invent a new method to reduce the volume of objects of any shape and structure. It works for a wide range of materials, including metals, quantum dots, and DNA. The technique can be used in the field of robotics, medicine, and optics...
Imagine charging your laptop and phone only twice a month. Batteries based on negatively charge ion of fluorine can make this possible. For the first time, researchers have made a rechargeable fluoride-based battery that properly works at room...
Leonardo da Vinci may have had an eye disorder called intermittent exotropia. It occurs irregularly and somewhat controllable. This may have given Leonardo an unprecedented ability to capture things on the flat canvas. Many famous artists have...
MIT researchers use deep neural networks to reveal invisible objects in complete darkness. It can image biological cells and tissue without exposing them to harmful rays and intense light. Most imaging systems only yield distorted or partial data...
Astronomers observe unusual binary stars that have a mass ratio of 80:1. The observation has been made possible by a large telescope network, Atacama Large Millimeter Array. One of these stars is 40 times more massive than our Sun, while the other...
With the new brain-computer interface, paralyzed patients can effectively interact with commercial electronic devices. They can use various applications by just thinking about moving cursor and clicking mouse buttons. They performed 22...
The new technique decreases carbon emissions from wastewater treatment systems and generates clean hydrogen energy. It uses purple photosynthetic bacteria and electric current to process the organic substance in human waste. Typical wastewater...
Sony’s new patent describes a smartphone with transparent display at both the front and back side. The display contains self-illuminating pixels, and each pixel is associated with a light control element. The see-through display technology...
Researchers used a photonic chip and an AI algorithm to configure the properties of broadband light sources. The technology will help in the development of various smart optical systems through self-optimization methods. In our everyday life, we...
Researchers demonstrate a new type of video-to-video synthesis. It allows developers to render fully interactive 3D environments from real-world videos. It can create 30-seconds long videos of 2K resolution. Almost two decades ago, NVIDIA came up...
