| Brain computer interface turns mental handwriting into text on screen Posted: 12 May 2021 08:56 AM PDT Researchers have, for the first time, decoded the neural signals associated with writing letters, then displayed typed versions of these letters in real time. They hope their invention could one day help people with paralysis communicate. |
| Giant sea lizard fossil shows diversity of life before asteroid hit Posted: 12 May 2021 08:55 AM PDT Scientists have identified the fossil of a giant mosasaur in Morocco that grew up to 8 meters long. |
| Study of ancient corals in Indonesia reveals slowest earthquake ever recorded Posted: 12 May 2021 05:34 AM PDT A 'slow-motion' earthquake lasting 32 years - the slowest ever recorded - eventually led to the catastrophic 1861 Sumatra earthquake, researchers have found. |
| How to thermally cloak an object Posted: 11 May 2021 05:11 PM PDT Can you feel the heat? To a thermal camera, which measures infrared radiation, the heat that we can feel is visible, like the heat of a traveler in an airport with a fever or the cold of a leaky window or door in the winter. Researchers report a theoretical way of mimicking thermal objects or making objects invisible to thermal measurements. |
| Tiny, wireless, injectable chips use ultrasound to monitor body processes Posted: 11 May 2021 02:41 PM PDT Researchers report that they have built what they say is the world's smallest single-chip system, consuming a total volume of less than 0.1 mm3. The system is as small as a dust mite and visible only under a microscope. In order to achieve this, the team used ultrasound to both power and communicate with the device wirelessly. |
| Engine converts random jiggling of microscopic particle into stored energy Posted: 11 May 2021 01:07 PM PDT Researchers have designed a remarkably fast engine that taps into a new kind of fuel -- information. This engine converts the random jiggling of a microscopic particle into stored energy. It could lead to significant advances in the speed and cost of computers and bio-nanotechnologies. |
| Genetics: Biosynthesis pathway of a new DNA nucleobase elucidated Posted: 11 May 2021 09:37 AM PDT DNA is composed of nucleobases represented by the letters A, T, G and C. They form the basis of the genetic code and are present in all living beings. But in a bacteriophage, another base, represented by the letter Z, exists. This exception, the only one observed to date, has long remained a mystery. Scientists have now elucidated the biosynthesis pathway of this base. |
| Laser light makes a comeback (literally) Posted: 04 May 2021 08:25 AM PDT Researchers find a phenomenon of reciprocating propagation of laser pulse intensity in free space. |
