The Elemind headband is a soft, lightweight, and flexible wearable designed to be worn throughout the night, regardless of one’s sleeping position. It can collect information using brainwaves and pairs with a smartphone, where users can find details about their sleep patterns.

Where the headband is effective is its ability to use neuromodulation to impact the brainwaves, directing them from wakeful patterns to those of deeper sleep. “Elemind works like noise-cancellation for the brain. You can switch off the world, switch off the stress, and go to sleep faster,” explained Meredith Perry, the CEO and co-founder of Elemind.

Chinese state-owned automaker Dongfeng Motor is partnering with robotics firm UBTech to introduce the latter’s humanoid into its manufacturing process.

The industrial version of the Walker S humanoid robot from Ubtech will be used on the production line of Dongfeng Motor to carry out various manufacturing duties.

According to reports, it will involve conducting safety belt inspection, door lock testing, body quality checks, oil filling, and label application. The robot will integrate with traditional automated machinery to handle complex scenarios in unmanned manufacturing.

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has introduced its newest artificial intelligence (AI) processor, the MI325X. This advanced version of the MI300 series is expected to be available in the fourth quarter.

At the Computex technology trade show in Taipei, AMD also announced that it will develop AI chips over the next two years to challenge Nvidia’s dominance.

It should be noted that Nvidia has an almost 80% share in the market of AI semiconductors.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has unveiled plans to build a next-generation AI platform called Rubin — named after astronomer Vera Rubin.
