Gallium nitride (GaN)
We’ve heard about the magic materials that are slated to replace silicon as the semiconductor material of choice for the electronics industry for years now, without much in the way of actual…
Compiler aims at Wood fabrication
We tend to think that software, and compilers in particular, are concerned with other software rather than the real world. The Carpentry Compiler is different – its target really is wood. Researchers at…
Thermomechanical Material Point
Computer graphics isn’t the same thing as simulation. It doesn’t have to be accurate, it simply has to look right. What about baking? Watch bread, cookies and pancakes cook in “fake baking”…
Tech gauges how brain learns faces
Real-world, unconstrained images like these (a) are used to train facial recognition networks. Testing for the study was done on highly controlled laser-scan data varying by viewpoint (b, columns), illumination (b, rows)…
Transistors now process and store
A computer chip processes and stores information using two different devices. If engineers could combine these devices into one or put them next to each other, then there would be more space…
25 year old manufactures Nigeria’s first ‘carbon fibre’ sports car
Jerry Isaac Mallo, a 25-year-old fabricator, broke record as he made Nigeria’s first carbon fibre sports car named Bennie Purrie – Unlike cars made from aluminium and galvanized sheet, the fibre material…
Multi-objective optimization for socially aware robot navigation
Mobile robots are gradually making their way into a number of human-populated environments, including hospitals, malls and people’s homes. In order for these robots to interact with humans in their surroundings, they…
E.coli could be the next Raspberry Pi
With a little more knowledge and a change in the way we view biology, hardware hackers could revolutionize the way many tasks are done. The paper by Raph…..
