Researchers have long sought to harness the power of light for computing, aiming to achieve higher speeds and lower energy consumption compared to traditional electronic systems. Optical computing, which uses light instead of electricity to perform calculations, promises significant advantages, including high parallelism and efficiency. However, implementing complex logic operations optically has been a challenge, limiting the practical applications of optical computing.Researchers have long sought to harness the power of light for computing, aiming to achieve higher speeds and lower energy consumption compared to traditional electronic systems.

Modash is flipping the influencer marketing script by connecting brands with the long tail of creators
Estonia-based startup Modash has raised a $12 million Series A led by henQ, a Dutch VC firm that prides itself in “funding the odd ones.” And what’s odd about Modash, according to CEO Avery Schrader, is that its team “has a really strong opinion in a space that nobody really has much faith in anymore.” […]

Before engineers at Carnegie Mellon University begin conducting additive manufacturing (AM) experiments in two dedicated labs that are equipped with an impressive range of 3D printing equipment, they often times rely on the power of artificial intelligence to develop models that can be used to monitor and control the build process. Among the many models they are currently developing and testing is one that can precisely monitor and control temperature.Before engineers at Carnegie Mellon University begin conducting additive manufacturing (AM) experiments in two dedicated labs that are equipped with an impressive range of 3D printing equipment, they often times rely on the power of artificial intelligence to develop models that can be used to monitor and control the build process.

The safe use of lithium-ion batteries, such as those used in electric vehicles and stationary energy storage systems, critically depends on condition monitoring and early fault detection. Failures in individual battery cells can lead to serious issues, including fires.The safe use of lithium-ion batteries, such as those used in electric vehicles and stationary energy storage systems, critically depends on condition monitoring and early fault detection.
