Using drones for agriculture! Technology used to benefit one of the oldest industries. đ
Designed for use in agriculture, the new DJI T20 is bringing the latest tech to one of the worldâs oldest industries đ đ.
There are more to come.
Scientists using the Low-Frequency Array detected a cold, faint brown dwarf, also called a âsuper-planet.â This discovery represents the first substellar object found using a radio telescope.
Researchers from Tel Aviv University (TAU) in Israel have demonstrated that the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system is very effective in treating brain and ovarian cancers, without side effects.

Chakrabarttyâs tunneling barrier was built in just such a way that âyou can control the flow of electrons. You can make it reasonably slow, down to one electron every minute and still keep it reliable.â
The team is hoping the technology could one day power glucose or even brain activity monitors without the need for batteries.

The first video games debuted in the1950s, later reaching mainstream popularity in the 1970s and 80s with arcades and home video systems like Atari and Commodore 64. Remember SpaceWar! and Pong? While limited by the capabilities of the hardware, they laid the foundation for the games we develop and play today, which by 2025 is expected to be a whopping $256 billion industry.
This history and the importance of these early video games was not lost on Qiskitâs James Wootton. In 2017, he created the worldâs first video game for a quantum computer, Cat-Box-Scissors, based on Rock-Paper-Scissors. He continued creating other quantum games, in the process attracting quantum enthusiasts and video game developers who wanted to try something new. And soon, games incorporating quantum computing concepts will be available for anyone to play.
Cloudy days pose a real problem for solar panels. But a new innovation can convert UV light to energyâeven if the sun isnât shining.
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) include more than 600 types of nervous system disorders in humans that impact tens of millions of people worldwide. Estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO) suggest NDDs will increase by nearly 50% by 2030. Hence, development of advanced models for research on NDDs is needed to explore new therapeutic strategies and explore the pathogenesis of these disorders. Different approaches have been deployed in order to investigate nervous system disorders, including two-and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) cell cultures and animal models. However, these models have limitations, such as lacking cellular tension, fluid shear stress, and compression analysis; thus, studying the biochemical effects of therapeutic molecules on the biophysiological interactions of cells, tissues, and organs is problematic. The microfluidic âorgan-on-a-chipâ is an inexpensive and rapid analytical technology to create an effective tool for manipulation, monitoring, and assessment of cells, and investigating drug discovery, which enables the culture of various cells in a small amount of fluid (10â9 to 10â18 L). Thus, these chips have the ability to overcome the mentioned restrictions of 2D and 3D cell cultures, as well as animal models. Stem cells (SCs), particularly neural stem cells (NSCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have the capability to give rise to various neural system cells. Hence, microfluidic organ-on-a-chip and SCs can be used as potential research tools to study the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) disorders. Accordingly, in the present review, we discuss the latest progress in microfluidic brain-on-a-chip as a powerful and advanced technology that can be used in basic studies to investigate normal and abnormal functions of the nervous system.
Trillion-transistor chip can run real-world simulations with over a million variables faster than real-time.
