Quantum internet inches closer thanks to new chip — it helps beam quantum signals over real-world fiber optic cables
Researchers used the Q‑Chip to send quantum data over standard fiber using Internet Protocol (IP), showing that future quantum networks could run on today’s internet infrastructure.
Farewell to the computer mouse? Bizarre new designs could reduce wrist injuries, scientists say.
Researchers built two prototype mice, one with a squeezable body and another with a hinged A-frame, in an ergonomic overhaul of the desktop PC staple.
Tiny cryogenic device cuts quantum computer heat emissions by 10,000 times — and it could be launched in 2026
Scientists invent a new device that aims to solve thermal interference from electronic components — one of the biggest barriers to commercial quantum computing.
Microsoft's new light-based computer is inspired by 80-year-old technology — it could make AI 100 times more efficient
Microsoft's latest computing system uses micro-LEDs and camera sensors to perform calculations.
Scientists cram an entire computer into a single fiber of clothing — and you can even put it through your washing machine
A new fiber computer contains eight devices that work together as a single computing entity, and scientists want to weave many of them so they can work together as cohesive smart garments.
China's 'Darwin Monkey' is the world's largest brain-inspired supercomputer
Darwin Monkey or 'Wukong' features over 2 billion artificial neurons and more than 100 billion synapses — similar to the neural structure of a macaque.
Japan launches its first homegrown quantum computer
Japan's first entirely homegrown quantum computer uses superconducting qubits and components made entirely domestically.
Meet the 'neglectons': Previously overlooked particles that could revolutionize quantum computing
When mathematicians revived ignored mathematical structures, they found that overlooked particles, called "neglectons," could complete the quantum computing puzzle.
