China’s Tianhe-1A created by the National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) has been crowned as the world’s fastest Supercomputer. The fully operational supercomputer was revealed at the HPC 2010 China and runs at a record 2.507 petaflops, measured by LINPACK benchmark. Tianhe-1A has managed to achieve this extraordinary feat by integrating a whopping 7,168 […]
Ortus Tech creates world’s first 4.8-inch full HD display
So you think Apple’s Retina Display is the ultimate screen for a device? Well, Ortus Tech from Japan thinks otherwise. They’ve developed the world’s first 4.8-inch display that supports full HD (1920×1080) resolution. The new display uses company’s HAST (Hyper-amorphous silicon TFT) technology and is able to show 458 pixels per inch (PPI) which […]
Samsung demoes WiMAX 2 in Japan, goes up to 330Mbps
We do know that Samsung is working to support the WiMAX 2 standard and now at the CEATEC in Japan, they’ll demonstrate the WiMAX 2 trial system with UQ Communications. The new mobile WiMAX standard is based on IEEE 802.16m that enables more faster, efficient data communication and is compatible with already deployed Mobile […]
Canon’s new CMOS image sensor records 60fps video in low-light conditions
Canon has announced that they’ve created a new CMOS image sensor, which is the world’s largest that can be produced from a 12-inch (300mm) wafer. The sensor measures 202x205mm, making it 40 times larger than size of Canon’s largest commercial CMOS sensor and is capable of gathering more light for an image or a […]
Canon develops 120 megapixel CMOS sensor
Canon has successfully managed to create a APS-H size CMOS sensor that can take pictures to up to 120 megapixel resolution (13,280×9,184 pixels). This new sensor has the world’s highest resolution for its size and when compared to Canon’s current highest-resolution CMOS sensor, the new APS-H size sensor is 7.5 times larger and 2.4-fold […]
Bluetooth SIG officially adopts Bluetooth 4.0 with low energy technology
Bluetooth 3.0’s adoption may not be as much as Bluetooth SIG have expected to be but that is not letting them to advance to the next version. The Bluetooth Special Interest Group has announced the formal adoption of core specs of Bluetooth 4.0. Bluetooth 4.0 features include low power consumption during peak, average or […]
NETRA helps to check our vision through cellphones
MIT researchers have developed a new way to check our eyesight which is way cheaper and portable than the current solutions available. The technique dubbed as NETRA (near-eye tool for refractive assessment) uses a plastic that costs about $2 and a phone loaded with the NETRA software. NETRA works by user placing its eye […]
Microsoft Instaload batteries can be installed either way
Microsoft has developed a new technology that makes it easy for consumers to install batteries in gadgets, toys or virtually anything that requires CR123, AA, AAA, C or D size batteries. The technology known as Instaload and unlike regular batteries, it does not depend on positive or negative polarity making it easy to install […]
MIT’s Flow Switching could help to achieve faster internet speeds by at least 100 times
Researchers at MIT have developed a new technique that would help the internet to be 100 or maybe 1,000 times faster than what is today. Currently, optical fibers transmit heaps of data whereas router that receives the different wavelengths of light loaded with data converts those optical signals to electric ones and then sends […]
Video: Toshiba LCD panel zooms in/out on bending
Toshiba has created a display that can zoom in or out on bending the panel. The display prototype was showcased at the SID expo last week where it was demoed with Google Earth being used to zoom in and out without effort. The LCD panel uses a bend sensor that is located at the […]
