330 million US dollars! This laser ophthalmic treatment developer has been acquired

Real time and high-precision optical flow estimation is crucial for analyzing dynamic scenes in computer vision. Although traditional methods are fundamental, they often encounter issues with computation and accuracy, especially when executed on edge devices. The emergence of deep learning has driven the development of this field, providing higher accuracy, but at the cost of sacrificing computati...

As humans stand at the forefront of a new era of space exploration, the National Laboratory of the International Space Station is taking the lead in carrying out a groundbreaking initiative that may completely change the way we understand and utilize space for research and development. In a recent development, Northrop Grumman's 20th commercial supply service mission has become an innovative light...

The hydrogel material made of nano cellulose and algae was tested as an alternative and more environmentally friendly building material for the first time. This study from Chalmers Institute of Technology and the Wallenburg Wood Science Center in Sweden demonstrates how to 3D print rich sustainable materials into various building components, using much less energy than traditional building methods...
