Researchers have developed a new type of neural implant that could restore limb function to amputees and others who have lost the use of their arms or legs.

Researchers have created classification models that enable accurate and automated sorting of various types of plastics.

Research reveals that detecting and removing smartphone spyware applications is challenging.

The maker of Angry Birds video games has agreed to be bought by the Japanese gaming giant behind the Sonic the Hedgehog character.

Researchers identify factors affecting the quality of edible materials produced by additive manufacturing.

Researchers have achieved a breakthrough to enable ‘perfectly secure’ hidden communications for the first time.
The method uses new advances in information theory methods to conceal one piece of content inside another in a way that cannot be detected.
This may have strong implications for information security, besides further applications in data compression and storage.

HRL Laboratories, LLC, has published the first demonstration of universal control of encoded spin qubits. This newly emerging approach to quantum computation uses a novel silicon-based qubit device architecture, fabricated in HRL’s Malibu cleanroom, to trap single electrons in quantum dots. Spins of three such single electrons host energy-degenerate qubit states, which are controlled by nearest-neighbor contact interactions that partially swap spin states with those of their neighbors.

The device could help workers locate objects for fulfilling e-commerce orders or identify parts for assembling products.
