Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists and engineers combed mechanical computing with 3D printing to create “sentient” materials that respond to changes in their surroundings, even in ...

YouTuber Steve Mould has created a great demonstration of computer logic gates using water, tubes, and 3D printed components. This innovative approach provides a tangible and visual way to understand ...

It may seem a paradox, but in the future tiny computers may dump electronics and return to their mechanical roots. At the macroscale, mechanical computers are fussy and slow, but when your area is ...

A new technical paper titled “Non-Traditional Design of Dynamic Logics using FDSOI for Ultra-Efficient Computing” was published by researchers at University of Stuttgart, UC Berkeley, Indian Institute ...

A new technical paper titled “Semiconductor-free, monolithically 3D-printed logic gates and resettable fuses” was published by researchers at MIT. “This work reports the first active electronics fully ...

Forward-looking: Semiconductors are essential for today's electronics, providing computational capabilities and the ability to control electric signals. They are also highly complex and costly, so ...

Even without a brain or a nervous system, the Venus flytrap appears to make sophisticated decisions about when to snap shut on potential prey, as well as to open when it has accidentally caught ...

A logic gate is an electronic component (or set of them) that performs a logic operation, in which the binary values 0 and 1 are represented with two different voltage values, as seen in the previous ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Science; DOI 10.29026/oes.2022.220010 considers optical logic gates in future computers. If you are reading this on your smartphone, its CPU (central processing ...

A solid knowledge of logic gates is at the basis of programming and electronics. This is required in any project. Truth tables are a great way to visualize the results of various combinations of ...
