Ever heard of bone conduction headphones? They're not like your usual earbuds. Instead of sending sound waves through your ear canal, they vibrate your skull bones to let you hear music. This might sound weird, but it's actually how our own voice reaches our brain! These headphones are great for run
Imagine celebrating New Year's Eve without worrying about drunk drivers. That's the promise of Waymo, a self-driving car service. Dr. Brian Hoeflinger, a neurosurgeon from Ohio, knows the pain of losing a loved one to a drunk driving accident. His son Brian died in 2013. Now, he's hoping that Waymo
In a surprising turn of events, the U. S. Treasury Department revealed that their systems were breached by Chinese hackers. The intrusion happened after a third-party software service provider was compromised. This allowed hackers to access some workstations and unclassified documents. The Treasury
Apple might be cooking up a new budget iPhone set to launch early next year. Instead of calling it the iPhone SE 4, sources suggest it could be named the iPhone 16E. Why the rebrand? Probably to make it more appealing to customers. Rumors point out that this new iPhone will have a design similar to
In the heart of Los Angeles, a curious collision occurred on December 27. A self-driving robotaxi from Waymo and a sidewalk delivery bot from Serve Robotics unexpectedly met at an intersection in West Hollywood. A video posted online shows the Serve bot trying to cross the street and make its way on
Rolling bearings play a crucial role in the safety and performance of rotating machines. While recent years have seen advances in intelligent fault diagnosis, noise in vibration signals remains a challenge. This is where GMSCNN comes in—a method that combines Gram Matrix (GM) and Multi-Scale Convolu
Imagine you're on a road trip across Slovakia, capturing everything from the bustling city streets to the peaceful countryside lanes. That's exactly what a team did using a Land Rover Defender equipped with high-tech gear. They clocked almost 33 hours of driving, using a top-notch camera that snaps
Smart cities, with their data-driven approaches, are revolutionizing urban living. But as these cities grow smarter, concerns about data privacy, security, and citizen participation grow too. So, how do we balance innovation with protecting people’s rights? That’s where regulations come in. One key
Traffic forecasting on freeways has long relied on deep learning models, especially graph neural networks that blend graph theory with deep learning. These models are great at learning complex time and space patterns. However, traditional graph convolutional networks (GCNs) sometimes struggle with l
Imagine having the ability to identify sports activities just by using basic motion data. This is exactly what a new method called Human Activity Recognition (HAR) does. By using sensors and special learning algorithms, HAR can tell the difference between various sports activities with impressive ac
