According to scientists from the University of Lancaster and spin out company Quantum Base, current authentication solutions, such as anti-counterfeit tags or password-protection, base their security on replication difficulty, or secrecy, which can be broken or forged. Looking to solve this problem, the team is using nanomaterials to create an unbr...

Huawei has unveiled a range of quick charging lithium-ion batteries that have achieved a charging speed 10 times faster than that of normal batteries, reaching around 50% capacity in minutes.Two demonstrations were shown at the 56th Battery Symposium in Japan showing two types of quick-charging li-ion batteries: one with a 600mAh capacity was s...

Jennova has introduced an Electrodynamic Energy Harvesting (EH) technology designed to simplify the capture and amplify the energy produced from the rotation or spin of devices and to power smart sensors and IoT applications.“Jennova has worked to create a technology that is virtually error-free and harvest the energy that is typically lo...

AppliedMicro has announced third generation of X-Gene, its so called Server on a Chip. Called X-Gene 3, the device is targeted at TSMC’s 16nm FinFET process and will feature 32 ARM v8 cores operating at up to 3GHz, eight DDR4-2667 memory channels and 42 PCIe Gen 3 lanes.
