A new study by the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) found that Volvo XC60 midsize SUVs outfitted with a standard collision-avoidance feature called City Safety are far less likely to be involved in low-speed crashes than comparable vehicles without the system. These protocols build on the established IEEE 802.11 Source: Weigle 2008.

The concept behind V2G had gained traction in the late 1990s after California’s landmark zero-emission-vehicle (ZEV) mandate went into effect and compelled automakers to commercialize electric cars. And with the revival of the EV, the V2G concept was reborn. The experiment seemed to prove the feasibility of the technology.

Advances in magnet technology have enabled researchers at MIT to propose a new design for a practical compact tokamak fusion reactor that might be realized in as little as a decade: the ARC (affordable, robust, compact) reactor. The proposed tokamak (donut-shaped) reactor is designed to have 500 MW fusion power at 3.3

The question when programming an intelligent robot is, at what practical size do those deep-learning building blocks exist?" I think it comes down to the notion of combining multiple low-level neural networks to express higher level concepts, and I do not believe that we understand how to do that yet."
