The femtosecond lasers. And the powerful computing.

"Researchers led by UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering Professor Giulia Gall, together with collaborators in Sweden, used theoretical and computational approaches to discover how defects in simple calcium oxide can produce qubits with a handful of promising properties.

They can pump energy to systems with a very high accuracy. The femtosecond laser can make new noiseless qubits. The reason why researchers are worried about the qubit's noise is the noise is the energy loss.  That noise is one thing that can break the qubit's security. Following that noise, the outside system can see data that the system loads into that qubit. Quantum computers are vulnerable on the surface, which transports information and changes it to the quantum

New AI-based operating systems revolutionize drone technology.

"University of Missouri researchers are advancing drone autonomy using AI, focusing on navigation and environmental interaction without GPS reliance. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, AI Unleashed: Revolutionizing Autonomous Drone Navigation) The GPS is an effective navigation system. But the problem is, how to operate that system when somebody jams it? The GPS is a problematic system. Its signal is quite easy to cut. And otherwise, if the enemy gets the GPS systems in their hands, they can get GPS frequencies. That helps to make the jammer algorithms against those drones. The simple GPS is a very vulnerable thing.  Done swarms are effective tools when researchers want to control large areas. The drone swarm's power base is in a non-centralized calculation methodology. In that model, drones share their CPU power with other swarm members. This structure allows us to drive complicated AI-based solutions. And in drone swarms, the swarm operates as an entirety. That ca

New photonic solutions transform computing.

"Optical image of a fully-packaged hybrid integrated erbium-laser based on silicon nitride photonic integrated circuit, providing fiber-laser coherence and previously unachievable frequency tunability. Credit: Andrea Bancora and Yang Liu (EPFL)" (ScitechDaily, Sharper, Smaller, Smarter: Scientists Develop Groundbreaking Miniature Fiber Laser) The new lasers revolutionize photonic technology. The new miniature fiber laser is smarter, smaller, and sharper than any other laser system. This ability makes it possible to adjust the energy levels of other atoms or conduct energy with very high accuracy into photons. That is trapped in the frames. The high-accurate lasers can adjust the qubit's energy levels. Or the system can minimize the waste heat. This is very important for photonic microchips. Temperature can make those processors oscillate. And that destroys the photonic channels where information travels in those systems.  "Researchers have developed a new intelligent

New and innovative robot suit for moving people.

"In testing with human subjects, the researchers found that study participants used 24.3% less metabolic energy when walking in the robotic exoskeleton than without the exoskeleton. Participants used 13.1% less energy when running in the exoskeleton, and 15.4% less energy when climbing stairs. Credit: Hao Su, NC State University" (ScitechDaily, AI Magic: Robotic Suits That Help You Run Easier and Faster) New robot suits can decrease energy use very much. And this kind of system is a good help for free time and heavy work. The new robot suit base is in the Human Universal Load Carrier HULC by Lockheed Martin. But the new robot suits are more compact, lightweight, and easy to use. They can operate for a longer time.  The biggest problem with HULC has been its 20-kilometer range. The solar-powered system can use changed batteries that the MULE system or camel can carry. Advanced battery technology allows those systems to be lightweight. Users who use this system can use those ro

How can brains sort information?

"If researchers want to make complex systems that handle data. They require full knowledge and interactions of the system. Without that knowledge, the system cannot sort, connect and handle information, as it should handle it. And if the system cannot control and sort the information, it's useless. " (ScitechDaily, How the Brain Masters Complexity Without Descending Into Chaos) Another thing that the system should know is if something goes wrong. Error detection is one of the key things in computing systems. If the system cannot detect errors, that causes a situation, in which the system makes huge mistakes. And in those cases is better to leave things undone that make errors.  When new types of neural- and morphing neural networks handle information from multiple sources, they must deny chaos in the system. Chaos is like a rush that stops everything. And that is the thing that complex systems must avoid. One of the most complex systems in the world is the human brain.  H

Swirling photons can make an advance to quantum computing.

"A novel vortex phenomenon involving photon interactions was identified by scientists, potentially enhancing quantum computing. Through experiments with dense rubidium gas, they observed unique phase shifts that mimic other vortices but are distinct in their quantum implications. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Vortex Power: The Swirl of Light Revolutionizing Quantum Computing) Photonic whirls can act as pillars and quantum superposition entanglement can made between those pillars. If we think that light is fluid, and there are whirls in that fluid, we can make the ultimate quantum computers. Maybe researchers can use formulas created for models to simulate the fluid or water molecule behavior for the model of photons interacting in 3D space. Whirls are easy to create in fluid, but photons are much faster and smaller than water molecules. That makes it hard to control photons.   In the case where the system uses formulas, made to predict fluid behavior. The quantum f

Photonic microchips and spintronics can revolutionize computing and material research.

 Researchers created the world's first universal, programmable photonic microchip.  "A team from Universitat Politècnica de València and iPRONICS has developed the world’s first programmable and multifunctional photonic chip, enhancing data flow management in telecommunications and AI systems. (Artist’s concept). Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, The Future of AI and 5G: Scientists Develop the First Universal, Programmable, and Multifunctional Photonic Chip) This new microchip is a powerful system. That can be a breakthrough in binary and quantum computers, and it can act as a base for the new AI-driven computing architecture. The microchip-based AI is a tool that can create new robots, mobile applications, and many other things possible. The new phonic microchips can operate the ultra-secured data communication lines.  And the new 5- and 6G mobile architectures require this kind of application. That can share data with different routes. The system can send part of

The problem with fusion energy is simple: how to control 150 million degrees plasma?

"Recent research has revealed that a photon’s polarization is a topological property that remains constant across different environments, an insight that could enhance fusion research by improving the design of light beams used in plasma heating. Credit: SciTechDaily" (ScitechDaily, Photon Polarization: The Next Breakthrough in Fusion Technology?) The AI can control fusion. And the Princeton researchers made a big work with the AI and its ability to control high-temperature systems. AI is a tool that can control the magnetic fields and plasma-energy interactions with a very high accuracy. The form of fusion reactor is forming. The most promising version is the Tokamak. The Tokamak reactor is a donut-shaped accelerator. In that reactor, magnetic field and laser rays push plasma into high pressure and raise its temperature to 150 million degrees Celsius.  The problem is this. The system must compensate for the pressure in the sun's nucleus. The system raises plasma temperat

The new tool in antibiotics is fibers.

"By assembling into large structures, the antibiotic plectasin latches onto its target on the bacterial cell surface. This is comparable to how both sides of Velcro form a bond. Credit: Gloria Fuentes, edited" (ScitechDaily, Velcro vs. Bacteria: A New Twist in Antibiotic Warfare)   The miniature Velcro fiber can surround bacteria. "Researchers discovered a novel antibacterial mechanism of plectasin, an antibiotic derived from a fungus. The study reveals that plectasin forms Velcro-like structures that trap crucial bacterial components, preventing their escape and enhancing drug effectiveness. This mechanism could guide the development of new antibiotics to fight antimicrobial resistance".(ScitechDaily, Velcro vs. Bacteria: A New Twist in Antibiotic Warfare)  Those nanotechnical Velcro fibers act like tentacles in cancer cells. Those things pull energy out from other cells. And that makes it hard for immune cells to destroy cancer cells. Those nanotubes pull energy o

What would you do with a three-atom thick lens?

"The thinnest lens on Earth, made of concentric rings of tungsten disulphide (WS2), uses excitons to efficiently focus light. The lens is as thick as a single layer of WS2, just three atoms thick. The bottom left shows an exciton: an excited electron bound to the positively charged ‘hole’ in the atomic lattice. Credit: Ludovica Guarneri and Thomas Bauer" (ScitechDaily, Just Three Atoms Thick – Scientists Have Developed the World’s Thinnest Lens) The world's thinnest lens has three atom layers. And that is the new kind of system that can manipulate light. The new lens can focus laser rays into small points. A small and thin lens can make quantum dots onto layers. And it can make it possible to create new types of electronics. This way of focusing energy has limitless use. The system can observe things like cell proteins and other details in the structure.  Miniature lenses can also push atoms into structures. The system focuses energy impulses on the atom or molecules. And

X-59 Quesst tested over many U.S. cities.

50 years ago, congress banned civilian supersonic flight over the U.S. area. The reason for that ban was a sonic boom, that broke windows. Today NASA and Lockheed Martin work to decrease the sonic boom effect in the X-59 Quesst program. The idea is to make an aircraft, that creates a very tapered pressure cone behind the plane. That shape maximizes the time a pressure wave uses. When it travels from the airplane to the ground that air has time to release its energy.  NASA tested X-59 over many U.S. cities. The purpose of those tests is to test if the aircraft alarms people. The same technology, developed for X-59 can apply to use in far faster hypersonic aircraft. And one thing that slows the hypersonic aircraft development is the sonic boom.  And that makes supersonic flight quieter than ever before. This kind of body and wing geometry makes it possible to create SST that will not break windows on the ground. The X-59 program allows to make the a new type of supersonic aircraft, that

Crystals are impressive tools.

"The new technique allows scientists to see each particle that makes up colloidal crystals and to create dynamic three-dimensional models. Credit: Shihao Zang, NYU" (ScitechDaily, Inside the Crystal Matrix: New “X-Ray Vision” Technique Sees Inside Crystals) The quartz crystals can give electric signals to the quartz clocks. And those clocks' accuracy depends on the purity of those crystals. Atom clocks based on cesium-  or some other radioactive isotope decay in the controlled environment. The measurement accuracy in those systems depends on the fully controlled environment. And things like incoming electromagnetic radiation causes changes in radioactive decay.  The energy impulses increase the decay speed of the radioactive nucleus. The other thing. That decreases the atom clock's accuracy is the impurity in that crystal. The other radioactive atoms, like radium, cause anomalies in cesium decay. And that affects the cesium clock's accuracy.  And that thing is the

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot

The AI is not emphatic, and it's not intelligent as we know intelligence.

The AI is not emphatic if we talk about tests that measure the AI's ability to be emphatic. The AI might look very emphatic, and when we cry, the AI can ask what is the problem. The emphatic AI makes that thing like this: the AI sees the person using the camera. And then it finds things like tears. That launches an algorithm. That makes the AI ask if there is some kind of problem. All reactions and things that the AI asks. Are connected with its program.  The algorithm is the thing that determines the reaction. And the AI can search the voice or observe the email and other communications. And it can search words. That connected with the emotional reactions. When somebody has a baby, the AI can congratulate that person and then ask who will come to godfather. The AI can seem very emphatic human, but all those reactions are in its algorithms. This thing is called pseudohuman. The 2D virtual brain structure might look like this: The brain shell, diencephalon, and lower brain structure
