Blockchain technology rose to prominence in the past years. what is blockchain technology? what are the benefits of blockchain?
What is Machine Learning?
Artificial Intelligence is all around us. The most widely used form of AI is called Machine Learning and you probably interact with it every day. Find out what Machine Learning is and how it’s changing our world.
So Where Exactly Are We With Nanotechnology? | Answers With Joe
We’ve been hearing for years how nanotechnology is going to change the world. In movies and in headlines, nanotechnology is almost like “future magic” that will make the impossible possible. But how realistic are those predictions? And how close are we to seeing some of them come true? Let’s take a look at the state of nanotechnology.

This week’s episode of TechThat! delves into how blockchain actually works and how we can benefit from it.
Solar 3.0: This New Technology Could Change Everything
In this video we’ll explore the world’s fastest improving new solar technology, and provide an exclusive peek inside the lab of a team working on this breakthrough material.
Imagine an inexpensive solution of perovskite crystals that can make a photovoltaic cell so thin, that just half a cup of liquid would be enough to power a house. A solar panel so lightweight, that it can be balanced atop a soap bubble. That is known as the holy grail of solar energy. So when will we see perovskite solar panels used for a solar power system for your home? Maybe sooner than you expect.
Currently, only 2% of global electricity comes from solar power. And 90% of that, comes from crystalline silicon-based solar panels, the dominant material technology.
While abundant, silicon has downsides related to efficiency, manufacturing complexity, and pollution that prevent it from being an absolute no brainer. Emerging thin films like perovskites present a bright future. Imagine solar cars like a solar tesla, solar yachts, or a solar plane.
Solar cell technologies can be classified into two categories, wafer-based or thin-film cells. Perovskites are the leading contender in emerging thin films. Topics covered in this video include applications, perovskite crystal structure, working principle of perovskite solar cells, efficiency limits, multi-junction solar cells, shockley-queisser limit, how solar works, solar simulator, band gap, manufacturing, vapor deposition, how solar panels are made, and the future of solar power.

The Truth About Solar Powered Cars
Electric vehicles are gaining in popularity, but there are aspects of the user experience holding some people back. One of the big things is how long it takes to charge electric cars and access to plug in charging. If you live in an apartment building or the city, plug in charging can get a bit challenging. But what if you didn’t have to use a charger? Some companies have a solar-powered car available for pre-order today, but what’s the reality behind these solar cars? Can they really provide enough power to fit the bill, and at a cost that won’t break the bank?
The Problem With Tesla’s Solar Roof
Tesla and Elon Musk have been on a mission to make their Solar Roof tiles the go-to solution if you’re considering a new roof plus solar panels. Why buy and install two separate products when you can make one that does both? I don’t know about you, but my neighborhood has a lot of solar panels, but is still looking a little scrimpy on the solar roof front. So what happened? Increased prices, installation times that still take the better part of a week, and new solar roof tile and shingle competition that may beat Tesla on price and installation time. There’s some interesting solar tile and shingle competition out there now, like new solar roof shingles that got a lot of buzz at this year’s CES. But where are they?
MIT’s Mini Cheetah robot runs faster than ever
A new method allows MIT’s Mini Cheetah to learn how to run fast and adapt to walking on challenging terrain. This learning-based method outperforms previous human-designed methods and allowed the Mini Cheetah to set a record for speed.
