Gurman: Apple exploring future wearable ideas including AirPods with cameras, smart glasses
In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Mark Gurman writes that Apple is exploring various form factors for future wearable products. That includes smart glasses similar to the Amazon Echo Frames or the Meta Ray-Bans, which offer some sm.....»»
Apple smart ring, glasses, camera-equipped AirPods rumored in wearables push
Apple has been deeply investing into wearables for years, and a report about smart glasses, smart rings, and AirPods details what the future might hold.Oura Smart RingApple already sells a number of wearable devices to consumers, including its Apple.....»»
Electrons become fractions of themselves in graphene, study finds
The electron is the basic unit of electricity, as it carries a single negative charge. This is what we're taught in high school physics, and it is overwhelmingly the case in most materials in nature......»»
Spintronics research finds magnetic state of certain materials can be switched using surface induced strain
Electronics are based on electrical charges being transported from one place to another. Electrons move, current flows, and signals are transmitted by applying an electrical voltage. However, there is also another way to manipulate electronic current.....»»
Hands on with Apple Vision Pro ZEISS optical inserts
If you need glasses or contacts, there's a solid chance you'll need optical inserts to use Apple Vision Pro. Here's what you need to know about these magnetic lenses.Apple Vision Pro ZEISS optical insertsApple Vision Pro is designed to fit the user's.....»»
Uncovering the physics of how electrons screen against conductivity-killer in organic semiconductors
California's Silicon Valley and Utah's Silicon Slopes are named for the element most associated with semiconductors, the backbone of the computer revolution. Anything computerized or electronic depends on semiconductors, a substance with properties t.....»»
Study shows how proteins guide electrons to the right place
Cells need energy to function. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg can now explain how energy is guided in the cell by small atomic movements to reach its destination in the protein. Imitating these structural changes of the proteins could le.....»»
Apple Vision Pro just doesn’t support my eye prescription
Well, this is awkward. As it turns out, I won’t be able to use Apple’s new product called Vision due to my own vision. Like a lot of people, I wear glasses to correct my eyesight. I can pass an eye exam and drive a motorcycle, but I cannot use Ap.....»»
XREAL (formerly Nreal) Air AR glasses are so cool but need some serious work
The XREAL (formerly Nreal) AR glasses provide an immersive external monitor experience, but the augmented reality and 3D offerings are disappointing. When I was a kid, I was given a Virtual Boy — Nintendo’s very ‘90s predecess.....»»
Researchers solve a foundational problem in transmitting quantum information
Future quantum electronics will differ substantially from conventional electronics. Whereas memory in the latter is stored as binary digits, the former is stored as qubits, which can take many forms, such as entrapped electrons in nanostructures know.....»»
This airline is first to offer in-flight AR glasses
There's plenty of room for upgrades to in-flight entertainment, and airlines are starting to explore advanced AR glasses to expand what's possible......»»
How semiconductor defects could boost quantum technology
In diamonds (and other semiconducting materials), defects are a quantum sensor's best friend. That's because defects, essentially a jostled arrangement of atoms, sometimes contain electrons with an angular momentum, or spin, that can store and proces.....»»
There’s a software update available for Ray-Ban Meta glasses – here’s how to install it
I recently wrote about my experience using the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which basically look like regular glasses but have built-in cameras, speakers and microphones. And since this thing is smart, Meta has now released a software update for its g.....»»
These 39-gram AR glasses have me excited for the future
You can get AI help with Brilliant Labs low-cost, multimodal smart glasses that accept input from voice or camera and display results on a display......»»
Quantum materials: A new state of matter with chiral properties
An international research group has discovered a new state of matter characterized by the existence of a quantum phenomenon called chiral current. These currents are generated on an atomic scale by a cooperative movement of electrons, unlike conventi.....»»
