As a matter of evolution, we are highly sensitized to signs of trouble over all other signals in our environment. And with the US 2nd quarter US GDP report we got what appears to be a flashing red light when the reported headline number declined for the second quarter in a row signaling, in classical terms, […]
The company leverages micro-transfer printing (mTP) for a new high-density laser spectrophotometer chip. One of the reasons smartwatches have thrived in the wearable market (in contrast to, say, AR/VR glasses) is that these devices provide continuous health monitoring. To do this, smartwatches generally rely on optical monitoring techniques such as photoplethysmography and spectrophotometry. Source: Photonics […]
One of the largest funding rounds raised this year by a single tech company came from a sector that won’t surprise longtime Massachusetts tech observers: batteries. Form Energy, a maker of iron-air batteries that can store clean energy for days without incurring in high costs, said on Tuesday it raised $450 million in a late-stage […]

He said the new class of next-generation guided-missile destroyers (DDG(X)) would replace the service’s Arleigh Burke-class destroyers and the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile […]
DARPA has a new program, Ancillary, and they hope it will develop and demonstrate new technologies that promise to leap VTOLs, vertical takeoff and landing vehicles, forward. Ancillary, which stands for AdvaNced airCraft Infrastructure-Less Launch And Recovery X-Plane program (it’s a loose acronym) wants to build a plane that can launch from any environment or […]
Growing consumer demand for electronics, the surge in the adoption of high-end tech devices and affordable pricing on electronics are all driving a growth in the semiconductor market. Even while the sector continues to grapple with worldwide shortages, it’s posting double-digit sales growth. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), worldwide sales of semiconductors totaled […]
