Don't say "metaverse". Say "Internet".

Maybe "metaverse" is a new way to say "Internet". It's the future of digital interaction. The AI-based chatbots can connect with data glasses, and the user can give spoken commands to the system. The data glasses can be connected to a mobile telephone, and the user can give spoken commands to it.  In those systems, the calculation and other operations are outsourced to central computers, that are in data centers. That makes the carried devices lighter. But batteries are the main problem with those systems.  Things like virtual keyboards can help the user in a noisy environment.  In the ultimate versions of the metaverse, the user can use data glasses, with the integrated brain-computer interface, or,  BCI user interface. In those systems, the user can communicate with computers using BCI.  The BCI operates like systems that compile voice in police stations. The BCI records the EEG and then it connects those curves with curves that are stored in its memories. The

Researchers can use holograms to teach the AI. Or they can use holograms to fix architectural errors.

"In the quest to train robots for real-world tasks, researchers have created “Holodeck,” an AI system capable of generating detailed, customizable 3D environments on demand, inspired by Star Trek’s holodeck technology. This system uses large language models to interpret user requests and generate a vast array of indoor scenarios, helping robots learn to navigate new spaces more effectively. (Artist’s concept.)

That it can interact with humans. The camera systems can locate the person's position and hand movements etc. make possible to copy those movements to the hologram. Then the hologram can be used to make sure, that the robot makes things right. Then computer can drive those movements to the physical robots.  The user of this kind of holo chamber can use VR glasses or the hologram system c

Morphing neural networks: modern Frankenstein.

"Researchers at Georgia Tech are advancing neural networks to mimic human decision-making by training them to exhibit variability and confidence in their choices, similar to how humans operate, as demonstrated in their study published in Nature Human Behaviour. Their model, RTNet, not only matches human performance in recognizing noisy digits but also applies human-like traits such as confidence and evidence accumulation, enhancing both accuracy and reliability.

And those systems are important for controlling robots. The machine, which thinks like a human is the tool, that can control quantum computers. AI-based operating systems can also make morphing neural networks more powerful than before.  The main thing in morphing neural networks is that there is always a gate open when the system

Light can control superconductivity.

"Mid-infrared laser pulses coherently drive atomic modes in YBa2Cu3O6.48 and stabilize superconducting fluctuations at high temperature. This quantum coherence leads to the ultrafast expulsion of a static magnetic field. Credit: S. Fava / J. Harms, MPSD" (ScitechDaily, Light-Induced Superconductivity: A New Frontier in Quantum Physics) "This light-induced superconductivity has been shown to replicate crucial features like zero electrical resistance and expulsion of magnetic fields, suggesting potential applications in high-speed devices and extending superconductivity to ambient temperatures." (ScitechDaily, Light-Induced Superconductivity: A New Frontier in Quantum Physics) Many materials reach superconductivity in very low temperatures. Things like UV- or IR  lasers can adjust the temperature in the superconducting structures. That is one way to control the electricity in the superconducting 2- or 3D structures. The laser can switch superconductivity on and off. T

Remarkable possibilities of hypersonic technology.

Above: X-43 thermal image.  The hypersonic aircraft can travel over the Atlantic Ocean in 30 minutes. That means the entire world in three or at least 5 hours range from the base, where that kind of aircraft stays. Hypersonic aircraft that use hydrogen as fuel don't leave pollution behind them.  That means the hypersonic aircraft can be excellent tools for cargo and passenger flights. But the problem is that. Hypersonic aircraft are also weapons. The hypersonic aircraft can turn into a powerful kamikaze drone even if it cannot drop bombs.  Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine.  Connecting rocket applications with turbojets is possible to create spacecraft, that can operate from regular runways. In rocket turbojet, the hatch closes the air inlet and engine compressor face. The reason for that is this.  By closing the air inlet the system denies the gas flow to the front of the engine. Then the system starts to inject oxygen with propellant to the turbo-engine.  New technology

The metasurface tractor beam.

"Researchers at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems, TMOS have developed a metasurface-enabled solenoid beam that can pull particles towards it, potentially revolutionizing non-invasive medical procedures like biopsies. This technology, which uses a thin layer of nanopatterned silicon, offers a lightweight, portable alternative to the bulky equipment previously required for such beams. Credit: University of Melbourne" (ScitechDaily, Not Science Fiction: Researchers Have Developed Metasurface Tractor Beams) The acoustic tractor beam is like a tornado. The system must have a hole in the plate and the phonons or some other acoustic systems. Those are on rotating plates and must make the whirl.  The whirl closes the space inside it. The whirl denies the air channel fill from inside it, and then it forms the chimney where the air flows upwards. That kind of system requires, that there is a lower pressure area on the other side of the system.  Multi

Quantum materials and AI can turn the object invisible.

The new materials and AI are the ultimate pair.                                               "Researchers have introduced a novel method that integrates computational analysis with precision fabrication to accelerate the identification of quantum defects, enhancing potential applications in computing and telecommunications. Their work has led to significant advancements and the establishment of a publicly accessible quantum defect database. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unlocking the Power of Quantum Materials With Breakthrough Technology) The thing that can make this kind of material invisible to at least radars is the possibility of creating a structure where energy travels in only one direction. The idea is that there is an energy pothole in the material. And energy can travel in those potholes. The material can involve quantum sping or so-called quantum trapezium. The quantum trapezium could form a standing wave. That can affect the reflecting radio wave frequ

Terahertz systems have a new capacity to manipulate light.

"Researchers have created a new method to generate structured terahertz light beams using programmable spintronic emitters, marking a significant advancement in terahertz technology. This innovation allows for the generation and precise manipulation of light with both spin and orbital angular momentum."(ScitechDaily, Terahertz Breakthrough: New Technique Offers Unprecedented Control Over Light) "The technology has potential applications in security, medical imaging, and communication. This development overcomes previous challenges in generating and controlling terahertz light, paving the way for novel devices with enhanced capabilities. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Terahertz Breakthrough: New Technique Offers Unprecedented Control Over Light) New terahertz systems use spintronics to create radiation. The system uses spintronic-based programmable spintronics. And those spintronics have an important role in the new terahertz systems that can open paths to

The photonic neural networks make messages safer.

"Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light have developed a simpler and potentially more sustainable method for implementing neural networks using optical systems." (ScitechDaily, Neural Networks Made of Light: Photon Power Drives the Next AI Revolution) The AI requires a very secure data transmission. The purpose of ultra-secured data transmission is that the outside effects don't harm information.  When data travels in a complex structure high-level encryption guarantees that only receivers of the data can receive it. Because the entire network will not handle the same data, that leaves reserve in that network.  That guarantees that neural networks cannot be stuck. If there are some kind of problems with the photonic or electric routers the system can put information to travel in other routes.  This structure where the system follows the minimum force principle saves energy. But it allows the system to handle multiple missions at the same time. If

The AI with an empathy gap can turn dangerous.

"New research at the University of Cambridge identifies a significant “empathy gap” in AI chatbots, posing risks to young users who often see these systems as lifelike confidants. Highlighting incidents where AI interactions led to unsafe suggestions, the study advocates for a proactive approach to make AI child-safe. It proposes a comprehensive 28-item framework to help stakeholders, including companies and educators, ensure AI technologies cater responsibly to children’s unique needs and vulnerabilities. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Cambridge Study: AI Chatbots Have an “Empathy Gap,” and It Could Be Dangerous) Researchers created the empathy gap for AI so that it can turn to feel like humans. The idea is that AI can make customer service missions, and that thing makes it feel like human. There are already services that people can transfer things like salesmen calls to the AI, that discuss with sales agents. The idea is that this thing takes those salesmen's
