Marc Ivan Manalac, a third-year computer engineering student, and three other college students in the U.S., created a plan for a long-range outdoor fire detecting system in just two weeks. Manalac’s team was one of 10 finalists out of more than 450 entries in the “Beat the Blaze” competition hosted by the National Security Innovation Network ( NSIN). Although his team did not win one of the three $15,000 top prizes, Manalac still hopes to apply for other funding opportunities to further ...

Power/Performance Bits: April 20 Multiplexing twisted light; flexible body heat harvesting; carbon quantum dots. Multiplexing twisted light Researchers from University of California San Diego and University of California Berkeley found a way to multiplex light by using discrete twisting laser beams from antennas made up of concentric rings. “It’s the first time that lasers producing twisted light have been directly multiplexed,” said Boubacar Kanté, an Associate Professor at UC Berkeley�...

ITU When Nora Al Matrooshi was selected to join the United Arab Emirates space programme, she became the Arab world’s first woman astronaut. Her selection – alongside male compatriot Mohammed Al Mulla – echoes the UAE’s focus on gender equality and equal opportunities. The country continues to incorporate more women into technology sectors, expanding their role as they gain recognition for their contributions. Casting off stereotypes Over the last five decades, the traditional image of ...

New wireless implant can help measure oxygen levels deep inside the body Engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, have created a tiny wireless implant that can provide real-time measurements of tissue oxygen levels deep underneath the skin. The device, which is smaller than the average ladybug and powered by ultrasound waves, could help doctors monitor the health of transplanted organs or tissue and provide an early warning of potential transplant failure. The technology, created in...
