Waymo robotaxis to map Boston
Waymo is sending a small fleet of robotaxis to map the city of Boston. The cars won’t be driving autonomously. Instead, the vehicles will have trained, human autonomous specialists behind the wheel at all times. The post Waymo robotaxis to map Boston appeared first on...
Harvard equips its RoboBee with crane fly-inspired landing gear
Nearly eight years ago, Harvard University researchers unveiled RoboBee, a small, hybrid robot that could fly, dive, and swim. Now, engineers at the Harvard Microrobotics Laboratory have outfitted RoboBee with its most reliable landing gear to date, inspired by the...
Have You Heard About the Ozaki Scheme? You Will
Using accelerators in HPC has pushed performance to new levels. Starting with early GPUs, the ability to take advantage of the parallel processing hardware (in the form of SIMD processing) has been a huge boon for HPC performance. As a result, the HPC market has been...
Quantum Case Study: Merck, Amgen, Deloitte, and QuEra Tackle Clinical Trial Prediction
A recent collaboration involving Merck, Amgen, Deloitte, and QuEra Computing has explored a novel approach—quantum reservoir computing (QRC)—to better handle these small-data scenarios for molecular property prediction. The success of this project not only illuminates...
