In late September, Yahoo announced that
at least 500 million user accounts had been compromised . The data stolen included users’ names, email addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth and encrypted passwords, but not credit card data. Large data breaches have become increasingly common: Just in 2016 we have found out about Yahoo’s breach as well as the LinkedIn hack (compromising 167 million accounts) and the MySpace breach (360 million accounts).
The Yahoo breach affected more users than the other two, but all of them share a crucial element: They were announced to the public years after the fact .

Engineers from MIT and the Masdar
Institute of Science and Technology have developed a new solar cell that combines two different layers of sunlight-absorbing material to harvest a broader range of the sun’s energy.
The cost of solar power is beginning to reach price parity with cheaper fossil fuel-based electricity in many parts of the world, yet the clean energy source still accounts for just slightly more than 1 percent of the world’s electricity mix.
Solar, or photovoltaic (PV), cells, which convert sunlight into electrical energy, have a large role to play in boosting solar power generation globally, but researchers still face limitations to scaling up this technology. For example, developing very high-efficiency solar cells that can convert a significant amount of sunlight into usable electrical energy at very low costs remains a significant challenge.
A team of researchers from MIT and the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology may have found a way around this seemingly intractable tradeoff between efficiency and cost. The team has developed a new solar cell that combines two different layers of sunlight-absorbing material to harvest a broader range of the sun’s energy. The researchers call the device a “step cell,” because the two layers are arranged in a stepwise fashion, with the lower layer jutting out beneath the upper layer, in order to expose both layers to incoming sunlight. Such layered, or “multijunction,” solar cells are typically expensive to manufacture, but the researchers also used a novel, low-cost manufacturing process for their step cell.

Engineers from MIT propose that a new lithium-oxygen battery material could be packaged in batteries that are very similar to conventional sealed batteries yet provide much more energy for their weight.
Lithium-air batteries are considered highly promising technologies for electric cars and portable electronic devices because of their potential for delivering a high energy output in proportion to their weight. But such batteries have some pretty serious drawbacks:
They waste much of the injected energy as heat and degrade relatively quickly. They also require expensive extra components to pump oxygen gas in and out, in an open-cell configuration that is very different from conventional sealed batteries.

THE HAGUE: Amsterdam's iconic canals may soon see the world's first driverless boats, doing everything from moving people and goods to providing "pop-up" bridges and cleaning up thousands of dumped bicycles, the project's scientists said.
.. The first prototypes of the so-called "Roboat" will launch next year, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions (AMS) said.
"Imagine a fleet of autonomous boats for the transportation of goods and people," added MIT professor Carlo Ratti, who heads the Roboat research programme.
. . The boats could also stack together to form bridges across the canals, for instance to alleviate crowding during busy events.



"Roboat offers enormous possibilities," said AMS scientific director Arjan van Timmeren, adding that the boats could also be used to help carry out "further research on underwater robots that can detect (water-borne) diseases at an early stage".
. . "Or we can use Roboats to rid the canals from floating waste and find a more efficient way to handle the 12,000 bicycles that end up in there every year," Van Timmeren said.
. . With some 165 canals, totalling a length of 50 kilometres (31 miles) according to the Dutch capital's marketing office, Amsterdam is the "ideal place for developing Roboat", researchers said.

Could This be True "Magic picture frame slow time or so it seen
Gave you ever wish that you could speed up time, may be we all have, but unless you have Hermione Granger's Time Turner, the ability to control the click hand is probably not in your took box.



However, an invention calledthe " Slow Dance " frame opens a window into that it might look like to See things move in slow motion in the real world.
When you place them in fronto f the frame delicate object such as leaves and feathers quiver and undulate, as you might expect them to when they're stirred by a gentle breeze.
Here is the difference
The moment appear to happen at a fraction of the normal speed taking place right in frontvif your eye
The "slow Dance" wooden frame measure 12.5 inches (31. wide by 14.5 inches (10.2) hight. Light weight object can be attached to springs within the frame, and are illuminated recessed lighting variable controls allows users to cycle between different "frame rate" changing the motion pattern if the object as the move.

wow is this really
Move over, earphones! You may soon be able to answer phone calls just by placing your finger in your ear. Thanks to a new wearable smart watch strap developed by a Korean company.
Sgnl is a smart strap that can be attached to existing smart watch, and enables the user to answer phone calls through their finger tip.
When you place your finger to your ear, your finger not only transmit the sound but it also block out background noise, it said
The device receive voice signal from the phone through Bluetooth when a voice signal is received, it generates vibration through it's Body Conduction Unit (BCU) which transmit the vibration through the hand to the finger trip.

As transmission is going on through vibration, there is no risk of harm to the human body; the company said when the finger tip is placed to the ear the vibration echoes to create amplified sound in the ear.

NEW DELHI : The turning phone cadenza . It comes with "voice on" technology which enable the smart phone to be switched on/off using voice command. You can use these voice commands for biometric authentication 



This phone features a 58-inch Quad HD display of 144x2560 pixel resolution. It is powered by not one but, two Quality comm snap dragon 830 ( even though the same hasn't been officially announced)  CPU paired with an astonishing 12GB of Ram and 1 (TB)  of internal storage. The storage can be further expanded up to 500GB by installing a mircoSDcard .

Using technology akin to X-ray vision, scientists can read closed books, identifying letters printed on stacks of paper up to nine sheets thick.
This finding could lead to office machines that can scan reams of paper at once, or help researchers scan ancient books that are too fragile to open. The researchers also said it could perhaps help spies read mail without opening envelopes.
The prototype device uses terahertz radiation, the band of electromagnetic radiation between microwaves and infrared light. Previous research has found that terahertz rays, or T-rays, possess a number of advantages over X-rays, ultrasound waves and other kinds of radiation that can penetrate surfaces. For instance, terahertz rays can distinguish between ink and blank paper in a way that X-rays cannot. They can also scan across depths to yield higher-resolution images than ultrasound can accomplish, according to the researchers.
The new system relies on how different chemicals absorb different frequencies of terahertz radiation to varying degrees, the scientists said. As such, it can tell the difference between paper that has ink on it versus paper that does not.

Moreover, the new system exploits the fact that air and paper each bend light to a different degree, and that pages of a book trap air pockets between them. These pockets may only be about 20 microns deep — about one-fifth of the average width of a human hair — but this can be enough for the device to distinguish the signals from different pages of a book , the researchers said.

The researchers used a terahertz camera to scan a stack of card-size, 300-micron-thick sheets of paper. Each had a single letter about 0.3 inches (8 millimeters) wide written on only one side in pencil or ink.
