WiFireNet Uses Wi-Fi to Spot Concealed Handguns, but It’s Still Experimental
Sweden’s FOI researchers trained WiFireNet to detect concealed handguns through Wi-Fi signals, opening new security possibilities with major limits.
IonQ announces quantum computing breakthrough with industry’s first end-to-end realtime quantum error decoder.
IonQ says it has cleared an important obstacle on the road to useful quantum computers: it demonstrated a system that can identify and interpret quantum-computing errors in real time using a single ordinary computer processor, without materially slowing the quantum calculation. If independently reproduced and extended to real hardware at larger scale, the work could…

It’s like the Iron Dome, but for mosquitoes. The Photon Matrix targets and zaps up to 30 mosquitoes each second using precise laser pulses.
Photon Matrix is an AI-guided laser system designed to detect and destroy mosquitoes mid-flight. Resembling an “Iron Dome” for mosquitoes, this device, roughly the size of a smartphone, uses laser pulses to zap up to 30 mosquitoes per second without harming people or pets. Invented by Chinese engineer Jim Wong, it employs LiDAR technology and…
