Error-free quantum computing gets real
In modern computers errors during processing and storage of information have become a rarity due to high-quality fabrication. However, for critical applications, where even single errors can have serious effects, error correction…
China’s TCab Tech tests transition flights with half-scale E20 eVTOL demonstrator
China’s TCab Tech has released footage of its transition flight test using its half-scale E20 eVTOL demonstrator. The E20 50% subscale demonstrator features a 6-m wingspan, two lift propellers and four tilt…
Ultrathin fuel cell uses the body’s own sugar to generate electricity
Engineers have developed a glucose power source that could fuel miniature implants and sensors. Glucose is the sugar we absorb from the foods we eat. It is the fuel that powers every…
MIT researchers develop a paper-thin loudspeaker using straightforward fabrication process
MIT engineers have developed a paper-thin loudspeaker that can turn any surface into an active audio source. This thin-film loudspeaker produces sound with minimal distortion while using a fraction of the energy…
