News Technology Is Honeywell the New Frontrunner in Quantum Computing? Earlier last month, thermostat-company Honeywell announced that it had managed to create the world’s most powerful quantum computer, leaving behind the two major rivals in the field – Google and IBM. Honeywell claimed that its system works using more efficient technology. IBM and Google use superconducting quantum bits (“qubits”) in their systems, but Honeywell decided […] Written by Alizah Gul Memon 2020-05-012021-04-26 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Life Science News Technology A Brain Implant that Uses Live Feed From a Camera to Help Blind People See Eduardo Fernandez, director of neuroengineering at the University of Miguel Hernandez, Spain has presented a particularly unique approach to cure blindness. His method uses technology embedded directly in the rear of the brain as opposed to previous techniques which usually involved prosthetic eyes or retinas. The mechanism uses a modified pair of glasses fitted with […] Written by Farheen Fawad 2020-03-282021-04-27 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
News Technology Electronics that Beat the Heat by Sweating Electronics are not very good at handling heat which is why most appliances such as refrigerators and laptops use fans to cool them down. However, what if electronics could release sweat like humans to help them cool off? Picturing your laptop release sweat as you use it at your office may seem absurd but it […] Written by Aliza Khan 2020-03-212021-04-27 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
