Quantum Watch: Neutral Atoms Draw Growing Attention as Promising Qubit Technology
Currently, there are many qubit technologies vying for sway in quantum computing. So far, superconducting (IBM, Google) and trapped ion (IonQ, Quantinuum) have dominated the conversation. Microsoft’s proposed topological qubit, which relies on the existence of a...
Sandia Supercomputer Model Simulates a Melting Diamond
Even the toughest materials on Earth are vulnerable under the most extreme conditions. A supercomputer simulation visualized just that by cracking, melting and recrystallizing a virtual diamond under immense pressure and unimaginable temperatures. The post Sandia...
GE’s Pipe-worm robot clears, maps pipeline networks
GE has upgraded its worm-like tunneling robot with highly-sensitive whiskers, similar to a cockroach’s whiskers, that give it enhanced perception capabilities for industrial pipeline monitoring, inspection and repair. The post GE’s Pipe-worm robot clears, maps...
Researchers aim to create soft, shape-changing robots
A research team from the Universities of Bath and Birmingham are hoping to reinvent the way we design robots. Typically, robots, like robotic arms, are controlled by a single central controller. The research team, however, is hoping to create robots that are made...
