Martin Baechle, Head of System Development Future Brake Systems, on why its new system is a “gamechanger”.

Continental has taken “significant” orders for its Future Braking System It claims this will change the way we think about braking systems forever.

The ultimate aim is “vision zero” — no traffic fatalities, injuries, or crashes.

At number 14 on IE’s 22 best innovations of 2022, is a new heatshield technology from NASA that’s helping put out fires.

As the global space industry gears up for human space exploration of Mars and beyond, it will need technologies that make atmospheric entries innumerably safer.

It essentially acts as a massive inflatable break system for spacecraft, making spaceflight much safer.

AI-powered assaults will definitely excel at impersonation, a tactic utilized frequently in phishing, as per the study.

A recent cyber analytical report has warned that artificial intelligence (AI) enabled cyberattacks which are quite limited until now, may get more aggressive in the coming years.

The Helsinki-based cybersecurity and privacy firm WithSecure, the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency, and the Finnish National Emergency Supply Agency collaborated on the report, according to an article by Cybernews on Thursday.

It all began with a molecular cloud.

A study in GeoScienceWorld.

It all began with a cloud. That cloud was mostly hydrogen, water’s main component, with a touch of helium, oxygen, and carbon.

The three major lessons on energy security.

On October 19, European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen announced that the EU had replaced two-thirds of its Russian gas imports since February by switching to other suppliers. Such a turnaround seemed unattainable last spring when the invasion of Ukraine turned Moscow from an EU business partner into a military threat.

Despite the EU’s reduction of its energy dependence on Russia, there is work to be done in the long term. To achieve autonomy from Russian energy, the Union could learn from the experience of one of its members, Lithuania – a country which, since declaring its independence from the USSR in 1990, has been able to adapt to a complex geopolitical context to ensure its energy security.

The innovation was inspired by the measles virus.

In a world-first, researchers at Tel Aviv University have conceived of a way to control the encapsulation and release of drug molecules by exposure to UV light, according to a press release by the institution published on Monday.

The scientists now hope that this new efficient encapsulation will allow for the high loading capacity of molecules leading to further development of delivery systems for the controlled release of biomolecules and drugs in the body by external stimuli using light.

More than 15,000 cameras have been placed throughout the eight stadiums and along roads and transportation infrastructure in Doha.
