Soccer officials already rely on cameras to see who’s offside and who sent the ball out of bounds. But during this World Cup, refs will use digital twins of each player to view plays from every angle.

Most of us think of espresso as a hot, high-pressure ritual. Finely ground coffee goes into a machine, boiling water is forced through it, and in about 30 seconds we get a concentrated shot with crema ...

Quantum computers get a lot of attention, even though they are not ready for prime time, but quantum sensors are already doing useful work. These sensors measure fields, forces and motion so small ...

Door sensors are some of the simplest smart home devices you can get. Instead of anything fancy like measuring the heat or motion, all they do is detect when their two halves are separated. Yet, that ...

After three generations, Google is apparently saying goodbye to its built-in temperature sensor on Pixel 11 Pro. 2023’s Pixel 8 Pro introduced one of Google’s first new hardware features in some time, ...

What really happens after you hit enter on that AI prompt? WSJ’s Joanna Stern heads inside a data center to trace the journey and then grills up some steaks to show just how much energy it takes to ...

In physics, a mechanical kink marks the point of transition between different internal states of a material. Researchers have now succeeded in creating a model in which they were able to move the kink ...

Researchers in Ania Bleszynski Jayich’s lab use a mechanical resonator to enable greater entanglement for potentially more powerful sensors. Most people think of diamonds as high-end adornments. Not ...

Water has long been the go-to when it comes to fighting a fire. But what about sound waves? It might be hard to wrap your head around the concept at first, but the San Bernardino County Fire ...
