The Apple Vision Pro launched on Friday, and I was the first person in part of the DC area to get a demo and buy the device.

As someone who has been working in the XR industry for a long time, I know this day was years in the making and will be a catalyst for future experiences to come.

After being quickly seated at the Apple store near me, I received the first demo of the day.

The newly identified compound will alleviate Neuropathic pain resulting from nerve injury and notoriously difficult to treat.

Raytheon to package cutting-edge commercial devices to create a compact microelectronics package that will convert radio frequency energy to digital information.

Explore the groundbreaking partnership between RTX and AMD as they work together to develop a next-generation multi-chip package.

What sets Tong Tong apart from other models is that she can assign herself tasks.

Chinese scientists have unveiled what they are calling the world’s first artificial intelligence (AI) child.

Developed by the Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence (BIGAI), Tong Tong or Little Girl’s virtual AI avatar was recently introduced for the first time in Beijing.

Dive into the world of advanced robotics as Carnegie Mellon University pioneers a modular robotic system for inspecting and repairing natural gas pipelines.

See how CMU’s wheeled robot helps gas pipeline maintenance, from mapping the hidden pipelines to on-the-spot repairs.

Mastercard has announced that it has developed an in-house generative AI to help combat fraud on its payment processing network.

Instead of relying on textual inputs, Mastercard’s algorithm uses a cardholder’s merchant visit history as a prompt to determine whether a transaction involves a business that the customer would likely visit. The algorithm generates pathways through Mastercard’s network, akin to heat-sensing radar, to provide a score as an answer.

NASA has set its sights on sending human crews back to the moon and establishing a permanent base on the lunar surface. The agency wants to return to the moon, build a lunar outpost, and eventually send humans to Mars. But these missions come with risks and challenges.

As humans venture deeper into space and explore other worlds, they face daunting challenges.

The idea of time crystals sparked much controversy and skepticism among physicists, who doubted such a phenomenon could ever be observed.

These ‘photonic time crystals’ can amplify microwave frequencies, but the team that developed them is confident they could work on longer wavelengths too.

SNAP’s 144 gold-coated silicon microneedles, each shorter than a hundredth of an inch, can bypass pain receptors and ensure comfort during prolonged wear.

Engineers from Korea and the United States have developed a wearable patch, which is slated to have the potential to further technologies related to human-machine interaction and healthcare.

Like a Band-Aid, the stretchable microneedle adhesive patch (SNAP) sticks to your skin and detects signals from muscles. In tests, people used it to control robotic exoskeletons better. These machines copy and improve the strength of human muscles and bones.
