Why will The vOICe sensory substitution defeat Neuralink Blindsight and other brain implants for restoring vision? - Consensus
Restoring vision in blind individuals can be approached through invasive brain implants (like Neuralink or visual prostheses) or non-invasive sensory substitution devices (SSDs) such as The vOICe, which converts visual information into sound. Each method has distinct strengths and limitations. Current evidence suggests that sensory substitution devices like The vOICe offer unique advantages in safety, flexibility, and practical visual rehabilitation, but do not fully replicate natural vision.

Jetzt wird eine Firma zu recht schuldig gesprochen. Wann sehen verantwortliche Politiker*innen ein, dass Überwachung das Gegenteil von Sicherheit ist?

Hybrid biphoton spectrometer for time-resolved quantum spectroscopy across visible and near-infrared regions
Joint spectral measurements are a powerful tool for characterising biphoton spectral correlation, which is crucial for quantum information and communication technologies. In these applications, highly pure biphoton states are essential in any time- and frequency-mode, often obviating the need for time-resolved measurements. Conversely, spectroscopy utilising entangled photon pairs is gaining significant attention for its ability to unveil molecular dynamics, a field that critically demands time…

Is a race or a lottery a good way to allocate subsidies, or are there better alternatives?
Yesterday, a new round of subsidies for electric heavy-duty vehicles opened in the Netherlands – and was immediately oversubscribed, just like the previous rounds.

SCANS: A Soft Gripper with Curvature and Spectroscopy Sensors for In-Hand Material Differentiation
We introduce the soft curvature and spectroscopy (SCANS) system: a versatile, electronics-free, fluidically actuated soft manipulator capable of assessing the spectral properties of objects either in hand or through pre-touch caging. This platform offers a wider spectral sensing capability than previous soft robotic counterparts. We perform a material analysis to explore optimal soft substrates for spectral sensing, and evaluate both pre-touch and in-hand performance. Experiments demonstrate ex…
