Other fascinating #emergingtech news today out of Bristol: diamond batteries!
Scientists from the University of Bristol and the UK Atomic Energy Authority have created the world's first carbon-14 diamond battery, which can run continuously for thousands of years.
The micropower technology encases radioactive material in diamonds, creating a safe and long-lasting power source that could be used for everything from space applications to bio-compatible use cases (implants, hearing aids, pacemakers) to RF tags. Functionality is similar to solar panels, but instead of capturing photons the technology captures electrons from within the diamond structure.

far and away the most interesting things happen at the intersection of disciplines, and this particular area (3D printing and medicine) has been delivering amazing breakthroughs for years now. The latest example: an ultrasound-based 3D printing process using a biocompatible sonicated "ink" that can be injected into the body, then polymerized into a solid form (mimicking various types of tissue) using an external ultrasound source.
tl;dr injectable implants that can be assembled on-site, with minimally invasive surgery - or no surgery at all.

New Atlas · New ultrasound tech could be used to 3D-print implants inside the bodyIn order to keep surgeries minimally invasive, it would be great if implants could be injected into the body in liquid form, then solidified once in place. Well, a new ultrasound-based 3D printing process may one day make that very thing possible.

In #Warsaw now, last week #Budapest, reflecting on contrasts:
While #DataCooperatives spark interest in the #US (citizen-driven sovereignty), in #postcommunist Eastern #EU, they [ #cooperatives ] still evoke state-owned associations, needing clarity
From my decade in #Mondragon exploring promise of #Cooperatives for #Web3 + #AI
Grateful for being kindly invited to contribute to an interesting event in #WashingtonDC about #DataCooperatives, a research topic that keeps my mind busy, having worked in #Mondragon #cooperative group for a decade while connecting+ #EmergingTech ongoing #Web3 trends
I think I boosted this last week, but research is showing that bioengineered donor cells can treat not just severe autoimmune diseases but also blood cancers. “Instead of making one treatment for one person, therapies for more than 100 people could be made from one donor’s cells.”

The chart breaks down how different technologies were adopted by companies in 2023 and how far along businesses are in implementing specific technologies, from fully scaling to just experimenting, or not investing at all.
From experiment to enterprise - emerging tech like Generative AI is scaling fast, with cloud and edge computing leading the way. As companies adopt these technologies, the road from pilot projects to full-scale enterprise use is crucial for future innovation.
This article explores how hackers could potentially exploit HDMI cables using radiation and AI, revealing the unexpected vulnerabilities in everyday technology.

“A robotic leg that can be fully controlled by the brain and spinal cord has enabled seven people who had lost a lower leg to walk roughly as fast as people without amputations.”
... and without conscious thought! This is my favorite aspect of #emergingtech - where discplines overlap (in this case, robotics, life sciences, and embedded systems) is where we see the most interesting (and most beneficial) developments.
