Lyric Semiconductor has unveiled its first device, which promises to dramatically raise computing efficiencies for applications performing complex tasks. In contrast to standard processors designed to perform binary calculations based on strings of zeros and ones, Lyric`s chips are able to natively process probabilities, the chipmaker said Tuesday. Spun out from MIT and funded by the Defense Adva
If you find yourself without a WLAN router for wireless Internet access, you can turn your computer or smartphone into a hotspot with a few simple steps. To do so, you`ll need a Windows 7-ready PC, a Mac with Internet access, or a mobile phone that can support UMTS or WLAN. To turn a PC or notebook into a hotspot, one needs to use the Windows 7 Virtual WiFi function. The first step is to activa
Is there any connection between poplar tree and computers? Yes. Scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have succeeded in showing how it is possible to greatly expand the memory capacity of future computers through the use of memory units based on silica nanoparticles combined with protein molecules obtained from the poplar tree. In doing so, they have developed an alternative avenue
A tablet computer for $35. That`s the estimated retail price of a prototype basic touchscreen tablet developed by the government of India. The device, which uses the open-source Linux operating system, was unveiled Thursday by Kapil Sibal, India`s human-resource development minister. "This is our answer to M.I.T.`s $100 computer," he told the Economic Times. $10, Eventually His reference is t
Taiwanese electronics firms displayed a slew of e-readers at an industry show Tuesday, with one maker unveiling a lightweight model that can display a full magazine page in color. The color model -- developed by Delta Electronics Inc. and expected to go on sale by December -- stood out among a number of monochrome e-readers at the Computex Show in Taiwan. Named e-Magazine, the model uses particl
So you bought a new computer to run Windows 7, and you`re happy with the new PC`s speed. It`s fast and responsive. But here`s the challenge: how to keep it that way? It`s not as easy as you think. If you`ve spent much time at all with PCs, you know that over time, your computer seems to run slower, takes longer to boot up, and might even start to exhibit erratic behavior. But you can fight back b


Pacemakers, defibrillators, cochlear implants... and many other medical devices on the implant track, are at risk for hacking, just as the medical community and patients with implants feared.  But it was reported today that an implant hacking actually took place, when a British scientist became the first human to be infected by a computer virus through his implant.



 




Nolan Herbut, an industrial design student at the University of Alberta, has created two really `impressionable` and interactive designs from computer keyboards: the Wolfgang Keyboard Bench and the Keyboard Parts Lamp. Come play along, come play along, come play along with me...
