Popularized by the book Angels and Demons by author Dan Brown, antimatter bombs have been used by science fiction writers for decades. Often considered the most powerful and destructive weapons that humans could develop, these bombs echo the mysterious interest that antimatter arouses among scientis

Flight delays and cancellations have become commonplace today, leading to the frustration of travelers who are not always clearly advised of the causes of these incidents. While these situations are frustrating, there are many things that can cause an aircraft to fail to take off. Even if it is co

Among the various apocalyptic scenarios involving new technologies, artificial intelligence certainly holds the top of the podium. However, the researchers looked at other possible outcomes involving advanced technologies. This is the case of the “grey jelly” scenario, in which self-replicating nano

3D printing, a rapidly developing technology, both technically and economically. 3D printers are constantly gaining in efficiency and costs are falling:plastic, polymer or even metal, it is now possible to print in many materials. It is for this reason in particular that companies are now turning mo

Unlike other physical reactions, matter-antimatter annihilation results in the release of all of their mass-energy equivalence as energy, without loss. This very quickly made it a science fiction concept, a field in which antimatter is often used as a source of energy for weapons or as fuel. But wha

On some tombs in Japan, the country that launched the idea, it is now possible to use your smartphone to scan a specific QR code present on the tombstone. What for ? Its simple:access photos and other detailed information, online, about the deceased in question. It all started with a Japanese tomb

Intelligent buildings enjoy an indisputable interest. Unsurprisingly, this phenomenon evokes more than promising global trends. According to multiple predictions, what will be the future of these connected homes? Why is it essential to secure these installations via a VPN or other effective solution

Although it may surprise many Internet users, artificial intelligence is an essential tool for music streaming platforms. Why is this technology radically transforming these services loved by music lovers? What is a VPN and what can it do for you when playing your favorite music? This article will g

Over the past few years, the development of advanced machine learning algorithms has enabled artificial intelligence to achieve remarkable performance in performing tasks and solving complex problems. However, machines still have great difficulty performing basic tasks of daily life. For neuroscient

Over the past decade, research into bionic prostheses has led to the development of prosthetic systems that reproduce sensations such as pressure or heat. However, human sensations encompass a much wider range of stimuli, including pain. A team of researchers has thus developed an electronic skin th

Have you ever wondered how a projector lamp works? One of the key elements in the operation of these faithful companions in classrooms and corporate conference rooms. Projector lamps are very different from traditional lamps or lamps used in other projection applications, and heres why. The projec

A social credit system has been introduced in China. Will we one day see this veritable “digital dictatorship”, with very real consequences, arrive in Europe? Are we running straight into the wall of dystopia? How free are we really from social media? For the past ten years, social networks have l

If you are often outside (and even at home), you have surely noticed how quickly your phone, tablet, or other electronic device discharges quickly. For this, some opt for universal external batteries, allowing them to charge their devices anywhere and anytime. This could be your case, but you may no

The problem of phone autonomy is one of the realities of 21e technologies century. It is for this reason that external batteries, also known as power banks, are also in demand in the market. These small, portable power sources are capable of supplying sufficient charge to a smartphone, tablet, Blu

As all objects above absolute zero emit radiation in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum, infrared sensing allows you to see in the dark. That is, to form images when light in the visible part of the spectrum is scarce or absent. Infrared imaging is also useful for detecting heat sou

Liquid expansion thermometers Their operation is quite simple to understand. A reservoir is linked to an extremely fine capillary. The known expansion of the liquid under the effect of the heat applied to the tank propels it into the graduated capillary:the fineness of this capillary as well as the

An emerging technological phenomenon of increasing importance in human society, artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized a large number of fields, from medicine to the economy, including the army and road traffic. But it also plays a crucial role in science, where it stands out today as an es

Emerging paper-based electronics represent a simple, biodegradable and affordable alternative to mainstream electronics and could significantly reduce the amount of electronic waste produced each year. Scientists have particularly focused on the development of bio-batteries made of biodegradable pap

Digital is now an integral part of our daily lives, and we can say that it is downright omnipresent in our lives. With hundreds of millions of active Internet users in Europe alone, digital communication is a golden medium for companies and their brands. Since his arrival, marketing has continued

Imagine this:you wake up one day and find that you have no notifications on your phone. Odd. You turn on your computer and try to go on the Internet, read your e-mails or connect to Facebook, but nothing helps, the pages are simply inaccessible . When we talk about the apocalypse, we often imagine t
