Reports: Tesla’s prototype Optimus robots were controlled by humans
But the prototypes used "artificial intelligence" to control their walking. After Elon Musk provided his "long-term" vision for autonomous, humanoid robots at last week's "We, Rob.....»»
Biological control generates "desirable outcomes" within all One Health dimensions, research reveals
New CABI-led research has revealed that biological control generates "desirable outcomes" within all One Health dimensions—mitigating global change issues such as chemical pollution, biocide resistance, biodiversity loss, and habitat destruction......»»
First coherent picture of an atomic nucleus made of quarks and gluons
The atomic nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons, particles that exist through the interaction of quarks bonded by gluons. It would seem, therefore, that it should not be difficult to reproduce all the properties of atomic nuclei hitherto observ.....»»
Dual-species atomic arrays show promise for quantum error correction
A study in Nature Physics has realized a dual-species Rydberg array combining rubidium (Rb) and cesium (Cs) atoms to enhance quantum computing and its applications......»»
Physicists uncover behavior in quantum superconductors that provides a new level of control
A new study has uncovered important behavior in the flow of electric current through quantum superconductors, potentially advancing the development of future technologies like quantum computing......»»
Expansion in situ genome sequencing innovation makes hidden DNA-protein interactions visible
Harvard scientists have unveiled a new technique called expansion in situ genome sequencing (ExIGS) that combines existing in situ genome sequencing (IGS) with expansion microscopy (ExM). The innovation allowed researchers to link nucleus abnormaliti.....»»
Hackers take control of robovacs and use them to yell slurs
An attack using Ecovacs robot vacuums seems more mischievous than anything else, but it's still unsettling for those affected......»»
I’m so glad I didn’t ignore the iPhone 16’s Camera Control
I almost shrugged the iPhone 16's new Camera Control off as a bit useless, but after seeing how it works with the updated Photographic Styles, I'm converted......»»
Interdisciplinary advances in microcombs: Bridging physics and information technology
Researchers are excited about the potential of microcombs, miniature devices that generate precise time and frequency standards. These microcombs could revolutionize fields from high-speed communication, high-resolution measurements to precise atomic.....»»
Engineering perovskite materials at the atomic level paves way for new lasers, LEDs
Researchers have developed and demonstrated a technique that allows them to engineer a class of materials called layered hybrid perovskites (LHPs) down to the atomic level, which dictates precisely how the materials convert electrical charge into lig.....»»
Study proposes that proteins can compartmentalize and form droplets inside cells
In physics, a system composed of two substances can be modeled in accordance with classical mixture theory, which considers the fraction corresponding to each constituent and the interactions among constituents. Examples include the coexistence of hi.....»»
A tiny iPhone 16 Pro feature is my sleeper hit of the year
If you were asked to list off the iPhone 16 Pro’s changes, what would come to mind? Likely Camera Control, better battery, improved cameras, the forthcoming Apple Intelligence, and so on. These are clearly the headliners. But there’s one tiny upg.....»»
Plant stem cells: Understanding the biological mechanism of growth control
Researchers from the University of Freiburg have identified the HAN molecule as an important regulator that controls plant growth in conjunction with WOX5. Understanding this mechanism is relevant for breeding more resilient or higher-yielding crops......»»
Red milkweed beetle genome offers evolutionary insights into plant-insect interactions
Studying the secrets of how the common red milkweed beetle can safely feed on a toxic plant helps illuminate the ecological, evolutionary and economic impact of insect-plant interactions from a genomic perspective......»»
Animal social interactions could speed up evolution
Scientists typically predict how species evolve by looking at their genes and the environment they live in, but new research from the University of Aberdeen has highlighted a key factor that's often overlooked: social interactions, where the genes of.....»»
Increasing plant diversity in agriculture can promote soil carbon sequestration
A study carried out at the University of Helsinki demonstrates that boosting plant diversity in agriculture can increase plant biomass and improve plant–microbe interactions, both of which promote the storage of carbon in the soil......»»
I created the perfect iOS 18 Control Center
iOS 18 let's you customize your Control Center more than ever before. I finally tried it out myself, and I created something I'm really happy with......»»
Ketch Third Party Risk Intelligence provides control over trackers, tags, and cookies
Ketch launched Third Party Risk Intelligence, a new suite of diagnostics and management tools for brands to manage how third party vendors collect data across digital properties. As regulatory enforcement increases and wiretapping lawsuits surge, bus.....»»
Sludge sequencing: High-throughput single-cell method reveals novel species and genetic diversity
Activated sludge is essential for removing contaminants from wastewater, and understanding the diverse microbial communities it harbors has been a significant task. Traditional methods fail to capture the full spectrum of microbial interactions. Due.....»»
