A team of scientists from Canada and Germany joined forces to develop a room-temperature superconductor. The new material uses a highly compressed silicon-hydrogen compound named ’silane’ and confirms the speculations that, under enough pressure, hydrogen would superconduct at room temperature.
The researchers stated that they want superconductors to be operated at higher temperatures, so they are […]

A recent study by the University of South Florida researchers show that red-light cameras may be harmful for the drivers, instead of keeping them safe. The study reveals that there are many crashes caused by drivers that suddenly stop at camera intersections, trying to avoid passing on the red light. “If used in Florida, cameras […]

Science fiction literature and movies have flirted with the idea that the images we perceive from television programs can rewire our brains. How crazy is that, right? I mean, there’s nothing to prove that this is true? Wright? Wrong! Researchers have shown that everything you look at, including movies, can change the neurological connections in […]

Scientists have developed a spy robot which will help the army and soldiers gather as much information as possible. The robot measures six-inches and is designed like a bat. The concept received $10 million for a five-year research from the University of Michigan College of Engineering and it could receive an additional $12.5 million for […]

Scientists from the University of Winsconsin School of Medicine and Public Health have uncovered the secret of how digits are growing. They studied an embryonic bird foot and they built a model which shows exactly how they are formed and they also explain that each finger is very different from the others.
The researchers agreed that […]

I am not sure what Alex Dragulescu is trying to show with his Malwarez Project which consists of a “series of visualization of worms, viruses, trojans and spyware code”, but I can only make a guess based on he said. It looks like you can write an algorithm based on “their frequency, density and grouping” […]

Scientists managed to capture on film the first electron in motion. Until now it was impossible to film an electron because it moves very fast. The camera that was able to capture the moment is based on attosecond physics, a technology that generates short pulses from intense laser light.
For the future the scientists are planning […]

Researchers from the University of Utah have developed a study project which could tell where has been a person with the help of its strand of hair. By reading the human hair, you can determine the isotope proportion of oxygen and hydrogen, also it can tell if your diet is healthy.
Thure Cerling and Jim Ehleringer […]

Many people in the world are paralysed and are tied to the wheelchair for the rest of their life. Around half of them are paralysed from neck down - they are called quadriplegic. Now, the scientists came up with a project which could help them to live a better life. Researchers have developed the MAIA […]

Scientists from the University of Illinois are the first to have created a mixed reality system. In order to create this concept, the researchers have combined a physical system with a computer based on a virtual system. This process resulted in a single system and it made a connection between the virtual and the […]
