Digital health is booming, and this young startup has ambitious plans to take patient care to the next level
Ukrainian med-tech startups are offering innovative and exciting solutions for patients and medical workers alike. One young startup is enjoying early success.
Tesla Bot: A concept humanoid robot embedded with Tesla's vehicle AI
Tesla expects to have a prototype of its concept robot ready sometime next year.
UNSW researchers 'growing' semiconductors for smaller electronics
'Growing' electronic components directly onto a semiconductor block could mean avoiding messy, noisy oxidation scattering that slows and impedes electronic operation, researchers out of Sydney said.
Australian government hands out AU$79m to fund digital health tech development
Four organisations will each receive AU$19.75 million to help Australian SMBs commercialise their medical research.
Using artificial intelligence for early detection and treatment of illnesses
Artificial intelligence (AI) will fundamentally change medicine and healthcare: Diagnostic patient data, e.g. from ECG, EEG or X-ray images, can be analyzed with the help of machine learning, so that diseases can be detected at a very early stage based on subtle changes.

Robots are out front of the push to map the world's oceans.
Intel unveils Alder Lake hybrid architecture with efficient and performance cores
Covering desktop, laptop, and ultra mobile form factors, Alder Lake processors will have cores optimised for lower power consumption while other cores are optimised for raw performance.
Baidu debuts Brain 7.0 alongside mass production of Kunlun II chip
Baidu has debuted version 7.0 of its open AI platform Brain alongside reporting that mass production has begun of its second-gen Kunlun chip.
Now That Machines Can Learn, Can They Unlearn?
Privacy concerns about AI systems are growing. So researchers are testing whether they can remove sensitive data without retraining the system from scratch.
New Zealand could take a global lead in controlling the development of 'killer robots' — so why isn't it?
New Zealanders are worried about autonomous weapons. But military alliances with the US and Australia, and potential economic gains from local robotics research, mean NZ won’t yet take a tough stand.

The secrets of perspective of Jan Van Eyck's paintings unveiled by computer vision
Perspective is the technique that enables objects to be represented in three dimensions on a flat surface by giving them an effect of depth. During the Renaissance, linear perspective revolutionized Italian painting, notably with Giotto and the notions of convergence points and the horizon line.
This high-performance computer just smashed a world record for solving a millennia-old math problem
Calculating the number Pi has always captured mathematicians' interest. This high-performance computer just took the challenge one step further.
Neural network helps augment 3D micro-CT images of fibrous materials
Researchers from Skoltech and KU Leuven have used machine learning to help reconstruct three-dimensional micro-CT images of fibrous materials. This task, which is required for the advanced analysis of these materials, is extremely difficult and tedious for humans.
