"Quantum computers could pose a major security risk to current communication systems in 12-15 years with their exponentially greater speed and code-breaking ability. (ScitechDaily, Today’s Most-Secure Communications Threatened by Future Quantum Computers) Quantum computers can break entire binary cryptography. And that makes all communication unsecured. That is one of the greatest threats in quantum computing. And this brings the arms race to the quantum age. The quantum computer can create codes that any binary computer can break. But the quantum computer can also break old-fashioned codes. And that makes it an ultimate weapon and sabotage tool.   Quantum computers can change the measurements of the ammunition in factories by changing the system calibration. Or it can delete databases from the opponent's computer systems. This thing can delete all SIM cards from mobile telephones. In peacetime, the hackers that operate using quantum systems can steal the names of the counter-...

The new humanoid robots are more fantastic than nobody thought. The BMW's new humanoid manufacturing robots are impressive tools. When humanoid robots work in manufacturing platforms under the dome of the full-scale WIFI transmission and the control of the same supercomputer, they can form multi-level morphing neural networks. They can communicate with supercomputers or with each other. And that is the impressive thing.  The robots that understand accents are easier to control using spoken words. They can understand natural languages, and people's natural way of communicating. In regular robotics, the user must use grammatically correct language. But modern robots and computers have started to follow orders, that accent-using users can give. The first portal in those systems is the speech-to-text application that transforms spoken words into text. That it drives to the robot's control.  The system requires only an accent wordbook that can translate orders to literal languag...

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...

"The artist’s impression shows how the HIV capsid penetrates the jelly-like permeability barrier of a nuclear pore. To smuggle its genome through this defense line into the cell nucleus, it has evolved into a molecular transporter. Credit: Johannes Pauly / Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences" (ScitechDaily, The Invisible Assault: New Research Reveals How HIV Outsmarts Cellular Security) The thing how HIV takes entire cells into control is been a mystery. The researchers found the answer. The virus' genetic material is packed in the ball, or pore there are thousands of proteins. HIV uses that thing to cheat the cell and transport its DNA to the nucleus.  Another way would be that HIV takes some cell organelles under control by sending the RNA to that organelle. That thing allows the virus to order cell organelles to produce new viruses. But in this method, the HIV starts to take the entire cell under control.  And the thing how that virus makes this thing i...

"Focused ion beam technology is pivotal in nanoscale materials processing, with a new EU report outlining its broad applications and potential for future breakthroughs in science and technology. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Ion Beams Unleashed: The Nanotechnology Game Changer) Ion engines use ions as thrusters. The ion accelerator pushes ions back into the magnetic track. Then those ions will transport craft forward.   Ion beams are particle flows that are formed by electrically loaded particles. The systems can use ion beams to transport material over distances. The system can ionize things like raw materials and send them to the receiver. That must only remove electricity from ions and turn them into neutral atoms.  The ion beams can also destroy cancer cells and disinfect surfaces. In some visions. Sometimes in the future, the ion systems can used to create giant 3D structures. And that makes it possible to create space stations using ions and anions that a...

  "NASA is developing solar sail technology for deep space exploration. This innovative propulsion system, powered by sunlight reflecting off its surface, has recently achieved a new readiness level, making it suitable for future science missions. Solar sails offer a fuel-free, environmentally friendly method of propulsion, capable of propelling low-mass missions to novel orbits and distant planets. Credit: NASA" (ScitechDaily, Harnessing Helios: The Science Behind NASA’s Solar Sail Breakthrough) In traditional form solar sails get their movement energy from the sun. The solar wind pushes that thing into the interplanetary journey. The solar wind is an effective thruster. However, its use is limited in the internal solar system, inside the asteroid belt.  But some active components may make those things more effective than they were. There are models where there are small gas pockets or gas tanks in the solar sail. And when solar energy hits the craft, it boils that gas. ...

Credit: Lockheed Martin / Michael Jackson" (ScitechDaily, NASA X-59 Experimental Aircraft’s Quiet Revolution in Supersonic Flight) The X-59 Qesst (Quiet SuperSonic Technology) means a new shape for supersonic and hypersonic aviation. This type of system is extremely streamlined. And that makes it very thin and gentle pressure waves. Those pressure waves travel as long as possible before they hit to ground. And that means those pressure waves can deliver as much energy as possible before they reach the ground.  That technology is useful in both, super- and hypersonic bodies. The silent supersonic and hypersonic systems can revolutionize things like civil and military aviation, and if those turbines use hydrogen, they will not cause emissions. The same thi...

Technology advances. And modern prostheses might have the ability to feel things. This kind of prosthesis is a new tool for medical operations, and it can interact with the human nervous system using intelligent electrodes that deliver and receive nervous signals.  This kind of system can used with intelligent neural wristbands. Those wristbands can connect the user's nervous system to the prosthesis.  The same technology created for prostheses can used in hand-shaped manipulators. That prosthesis can also connected with a robot, that communicates with users over the internet.  They can also used with remote-control human-shaped robots. In those systems, the controller can control robots using the BCI  (Brain-computer interface) or in more practical models the user can use the VR (Virtual Reality) Glasses, data gloves, and intelligent wristbands, that send neuro-impulses to the robot.  That new prosthesis can increase the ability to make people's lives better af...
