Arduino is a microcontroller designed for real-time hardware control with very low power use. Raspberry Pi is a full computer that runs operating systems and handles complex tasks. Arduino excels at ...

NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming ...

Researchers at NYU have developed a way to use light to precisely direct how microscopic particles assemble into crystals. The findings, published today (February 24) in the Cell Press journal Chem, ...

A new optical device allows researchers to generate and switch between two stable, donut-shaped light patterns called skyrmions. These light vortices hold their shape even when disturbed, making them ...

Not sure where to start with smart plugs? At CNET, these are the tricks we use to make our homes smarter and routines faster.

Physical AI is not merely a product feature. It is an architectural shift. When intelligence lives next to the phenomenon it observes, we gain what the cloud alone cannot consistently provide: low ...

From a father–son engineering duo, the WOWCube is tactile play alongside spatial computing. Bridging STEM learning and gaming.

When 12-year-old Matteo Mucchetti mapped out an amusement-style attraction that he wanted to create in his family’s basement and then showed it to his older brother Nico, the high-school sophomore was ...

Researchers have built a paper-thin chip that converts infrared light into visible light and directs it precisely, all without mechanical motion. The design overcomes a long-standing efficiency-versus ...

LED lights are famous for their efficiency and long lives, but how does that turn into cash? We did the math and found out. Tyler Lacoma Editor / Home Security and Smart Home Tyler has worked on, ...

Imagine a line of affordable toys controlled by the player’s brainwaves. By interpreting biosignals picked up by the dry ...

During the acquisition of correct rejection response, rankings of functional connection separated for cortical and subcortical regions, which is predictive of the peak timing of visual information ...
