Imagine heading out for a run on a cold winter day clad in athletic gear with sensors and microelectronics woven into the very fiber to constantly monitor your vital signs, even running the occasional ...

A new fiber computer contains eight devices that work together as a single computing entity, and scientists want to weave many of them so they can work together as cohesive smart garments. When you ...

Density, latency, and real-time data movement are now the make-or-break variables in modern data center design.

Schematic diagram and microscopic observation of an optical fiber doped with rare-earth atoms. The fluorescence from the entire optical fiber can be seen. (b) Schematic diagram and microscopic ...

Scientists have incorporated key computing components into a single, flexible fiber that you can run through your washing machine. The researchers hope to one day weave together many of these fibers ...
