There's a significant difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, so it's important that patients are diagnosed correctly. Thanks to a new microchip developed by a team at Stanford University, doing so could soon be quicker, cheaper and easier than ever before.
-
Researchers at MIT are experimenting with a radically new design for multicore microchips that takes hints from the way internet routers work to make data flow between cores faster and more reliably.
-
The waxing of cross-country skis can be a tricky business. Norwegian ski manufacturer Madshus has set out to simplify the process, however, with microchip-equipped skis.
-
Scientists at Stanford University are predicting that stanene, a new 2D material, could conduct electricity with one hundred percent efficiency at room temperature and lead to computer chips that are faster, consume less power, and won't heat up nearly as much.
-
Physicists at the University of Cambridge have developed a spintronic shift register that allows information to be passed between different layers of a 3D microchip.
-
ScienceMIT researchers have built the smallest transistor ever made from a material other than silicon, which could lead to more powerful processors.
-
Microchip Technologies has developed the world's first gesture recognition chip based on measuring changes in a 3D electric field.
-
ScienceIBM researchers have succeeded in creating a chip with transistors made from carbon nanotubes, instead of the traditional silicon.
-
ScienceResearchers have built an “inexact” prototype silicon chip that is allowed to make the occasional mistake, but which they claim is at least 15 times more efficient than current technology in terms of speed, energy consumption and size.
-
IBM has created an optical chip that is capable of transferring one trillion bits of data per second.
-
Researchers are designing chips that are faster and more energy-efficient than conventional chips, by "pruning" out the portions of circuits that are used the least.
-
In a new, more efficient approach to solar powered microelectronics, researchers have produced a microchip which directly integrates photovoltaic cells.
