In robotics, movements must be precise and well-controlled. As robots are asked to do more as industry becomes more familiar with the technology, there will be an increasing need for high accuracy ...

Abstract: Facing the product characteristics of nanometer resolution optical encoder, such as long life, high reliability, and variability of products of the same model and batch, this paper proposes ...

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming our world, but its growing complexity demands massive computational power and energy. Optical Neural Networks (ONNs), which use light instead of ...

Chinese artificial intelligence developer Moonshot AI today debuted Kimi K2.5, an open-source model that it says can outperform GPT-5.2 across several benchmarks. The launch comes a few days after ...

Modern artificial intelligence models have an environmental impact, especially when it comes to image generation. But as demand for these models grows, UCLA engineering professor Aydogan Ozcan and his ...

Adapter-based optical compression for long documents using DeepSeek's DeepEncoder with Qwen3-VL-2B. Built on DeepSeek-OCR by DeepSeek-AI. This repo includes deepencoder.py from DeepSeek-OCR ...

We cross-validated four pretrained Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT)–based models—BERT, BioBERT, ClinicalBERT, and MedBERT—by fine-tuning them on 90% of 3,261 sentences ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

What would a Tesla be without controversy and split opinions? The Tesla Model Y’s midcycle refresh brought significant enough changes to earn it a spot in our 2026 SUV of the Year competition. The ...

Bowerbirds create stages that make them look bigger to potential partners. Fish and butterflies can flash what looks like a large, staring eye to intimidate predators or deflect attacks. Male peacock ...
