Machine vision is a rapidly developing field in robotics, integrating cameras, sensors, and algorithms into systems for capturing and analyzing images. Modern conditions require that collected data be processed as quickly as possible, ideally within the device itself—whether in a smartphone, laptop, or car. For such edge computing needs, specialists from Tsinghua University in China…
Despite US sanctions, the textile industry in Xinjiang is demonstrating record growth thanks to the implementation of artificial intelligence and 5G. Textile exports from this region reached 108 billion yuan ($14.8 billion) last year, with yarn and other raw material volume increasing by 74%, and clothing by 30%. The implementation of AI and 5G has…

Whether extraterrestrial civilizations and other intelligent beings exist remains unknown, though scientists have long speculated on this topic. In the mid-20th century, astrophysicist Frank Drake formulated an equation to estimate the number of extraterrestrial civilizations in the galaxy based on variables such as the number of sun-like stars, planets with suitable conditions, or the time…
The new rocket “Changzheng-6C” (Long March 6 °C) successfully placed four satellites into orbit during its first launch with a payload. The two-stage carrier, standing 43 meters tall, can deliver 2.4 tons of cargo to a sun-synchronous orbit and 4.5 tons to a low Earth orbit. The rocket employs more environmentally friendly fuel based on kerosene…
Today at 02:38 Moscow time, the Chinese automatic interplanetary station “Chang’e-6” successfully launched from the Moon into a selenocentric orbit. On board the probe are rare samples of lunar soil collected from the far side of the satellite. If the remaining stages of the space expedition proceed as smoothly, the valuable cargo will arrive on…
The test was conducted on a prototype of the Polestar 5 car equipped with a new 77 kWh battery. The charging speed during the test started at 310 kW and increased to over 370 kW by the end. The project aimed to validate the experimental concept of the Extreme Fast Charging (XFC) battery technology from…
OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman is confident that GPT-5 will far surpass its predecessor, GPT-4. According to him, GPT-4 will look “awkward, to say the least,” in comparison to the new model. GPT-5 is expected to be a significant leap forward in AI development, with unprecedented power, functionality, and intelligence. Altman states that the new model…
Scientists have presented the results of the first phase of clinical trials involving 14 people with inherited blindness, specifically Leber congenital amaurosis. Significant improvements in vision parameters have been observed with the application of CRISPR gene editing technology. Leber congenital amaurosis is characterized by a mutation in the CEP290 gene, resulting in severe vision loss,…
