On the road to smart: lighting intelligence for everyone
Lighting is a huge consumer of global energy, contributing to around 20% of all the electricity consumed globally. Approximately 80% of that lighting is attributed to professional applications such as building, office, industry or street lighting, and about 20% to private residential lighting.
Switch transmits data at record-low temperatures
A silicon optical switch newly developed at Sandia National Laboratories is the first to transmit up to 10 gigabits per second of data at temperatures just a few degrees above absolutezero. The device could enable data transmission for next-generation superconducting computers that store and process data at cryogenic temperatures. Although these supercomputers are still experimental, they could potentially offer computing speeds ten times faster ...
