Robots have steadily become smaller, cheaper, and more capable—but until now, true autonomy stopped at around the millimeter scale. Below that threshold, conventional designs...

Along the huge advantages of big data as a source of efficient, real-time insights for the benefit of commercial and security sector applications, this...

Browser extensions have long been treated as harmless productivity tools, but their growing access to sensitive data is becoming a serious security concern. As...

Autonomous systems struggle most at close range. While long-distance sensing is relatively mature, many accidents and failures occur within tens of meters, where blind...

China has made another step in the direction of developing hypersonic flight technology. Beijing is building a hypersonic wind tunnel to test hypersonic aircraft...

As wireless systems push toward higher frequencies and wider bandwidths, one technical bottleneck keeps resurfacing: the hardware itself. Radio-frequency (RF) switches are essential for...

Air combat is becoming increasingly complex as threats multiply and reaction times shrink. Pilots are expected to manage dense sensor data, coordinate with multiple...

A new embedded wireless vibration/shock sensor solution has been launched recently. The G-Link-200-OEM sensor is small, light, easy to integrate and produces high-speed vibration...

As more personal information moves online, individuals are increasingly exposed to identity theft, harassment, and privacy violations. Search engines often serve as the first...

For mobile robots operating in the real world, knowing their exact position is not optional. Autonomous navigation depends on continuous, accurate localization. Yet satellite-based...

A new thermal imager, the first uncooled 10-micron thermal camera core on the market for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), has been launched by Leonardo...

Electric motors power everything from household appliances to industrial systems. Most rely on magnetic fields generated by electric current to create rotation. While electrostatic...

Video data link handheld radios were required in order to help US special forces personnel receive, transmit, and display full-motion video for situational awareness....

Transmitting information between underwater and airborne systems has long posed a technical challenge. Sound behaves very differently in water compared to air due to...

Modern online platforms increasingly rely on background data collection to secure their systems and optimize performance. However, as these mechanisms become more sophisticated, they...

Everyone who has been a soldier, and more specifically a fighter, knows that carrying an assault rifle or a machine gun on a long...

Accessing visual information through AI typically requires smartphones, cameras, or wearable devices like smart glasses. However, these solutions often come with trade-offs: high power...

Organizations are rapidly adopting AI to automate workflows, but visibility into how these systems operate is not keeping pace. While much of the discussion...

China, the world’s main distributor of armed drones, is increasingly popular among Middle Eastern countries locked-out of purchasing American-made drones. With increasing degree of...

The modern battlefield is becoming increasingly crowded and complex. Drones, sensors, cameras, radars, and weapons systems all operate simultaneously, generating enormous volumes of data....

A new underwater system provides a highly flexible undersea vehicle that can deliver payloads at distances of hundreds of miles without human intervention in...
