Features
New printable ink electrifies wearable technology
The technology will be embedded in wearable sensors that can help seniors prevent heart failure, manage diabetes and improve quality of life.
New photonic chip-based satellite communications tech
By placing photonic (light-manipulating) components onto microchips, laser beams could soon be used to deliver secure, high-speed internet anywhere.
Better driving using LiDAR for autonomous vehicles
LiDAR technology helps self-driving vehicles "see" using a laser, a scanner, a specialized GPS receiver and signal processor.
