Researchers have devised a way to make computer vision systems more efficient by building networks out of computer chips’ logic gates. Networks programmed directly into computer chip hardware can ...

Researchers at the University of Rochester and the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg have created the fastest logic gates ever. If the process is ever brought to market, the ...

Why it matters: For decades, scientists have dreamed of building computer chips that use light instead of electricity to process information. While our current silicon chips are incredibly fast, ...

Before we plunge headfirst into the fray with gusto and abandon (and aplomb, of course), let’s remind and reassure ourselves that—although the following discussions focus on the devices and ...
