World Record: Internet speed of 319 Tb/s over 3,001 km - Tech …
Jul 26, 2021 — NICT scientists from Japan have broken the previous record of 178 Tb/s by achieving 319 Tb/s over 3,001 km using four-core optical fiber and wavelength division multiplexing technology. The fastest internet speed is expected to be used for long-range industrial data transmission, such as terrestrial space exploration data exchanges.
Meet SAM: a Construction Robot That Works 500% Faster Than …
Apr 9, 2017 — A New-York-based company called Construction Robotics have developed a revolutionary brick- laying robot called SAM (Semi-Automated Mason). It works six times i.e., 500% faster than a human labour.
Engineers 3D print strong, multilayered glass bricks for building ...
Sep 20, 2024 — The new circular masonry design was inspired by MIT’s Glass Lab, where Becker and Stern, undergraduate students, first learned glassblowing. They aimed to create 3D-printable glass bricks that were as sturdy and stackable as traditional ones. Using the Glass 3D Printer 3 (G3DP3) and soda-lime glass, they printed prototype bricks with interlocking pegs and a removable material to prevent ...
Meet ZenRobotics 4.0, an AI-powered waste-sorting robot - Tech …
Feb 16, 2024 — ZenRobotics, a Finnish high-tech company, has presented ZenRobotics 4.0, its fourth generation of waste sorting robots. These robots can recognize over 500 waste categories, improve efficiency, and reduce commissioning times.
New, low-cost cathode could radically improve lithium-ion batteries
Sep 27, 2024 — A Georgia Tech team led by Hailong Chen has developed iron chloride (FeCl3) as a cathode material that costs 1-2% of typical cathodes and offers the same energy storage capacity. FeCl3 is compatible with chloride-based solid electrolytes and could revolutionize battery technology for EVs and energy storage.
New model helps understand stress-strain behavior in ultra-high ...
Sep 28, 2024 — To tackle these challenges, the researchers crafted a cutting-edge model that factors in the influence of stress-path dependency. By fine-tuning the confining pressure and introducing a new equation for the confining pressure gap, the team successfully integrated this crucial element into their analysis-oriented model.
New catalyst produces methane out of carbon dioxide and water
Oct 4, 2024 — Researchers at the University of Bonn and the University of Montreal have developed a revolutionary catalyst that efficiently converts carbon dioxide and water into methane using electricity.This innovative process has the potential to produce methane in a highly sustainable manner, making it largely climate-neutral when powered by green electricity.
Pain: Dominant symptom in long Covid - Tech Explorist
Aug 28, 2024 — Anxiety and depression (18.4%), fatigue (14.3%), and dyspnoea (shortness of breath) (7.4%) were the other most common symptoms.. The analysis found that symptom intensity, especially pain, increased by an average of 3.3% each month since initial registration. Significant disparities were found among different groups when considering the impact of demographic factors on the severity of symptoms.
Producing hydrogen peroxide continuously from just air, water, …
Oct 24, 2019 — A portable electrolyzer splits water into hydrogen and oxygen, and a mediator molecule carries the hydrogen to react with oxygen and form hydrogen peroxide. The process is energy-efficient, scalable, and can be used for disinfection, sterilization, and water treatment.
