- 1Polymer-tuned perovskite boosts underwater solar cell efficiency▼Polymer-tuned perovskite creates high-efficiency underwater solar cells
Researchers report that a polymer-tuned perovskite material has enabled high-efficiency underwater solar cells, according to Physics World. By modifying the perovskite with a polymer, the cells can operate effectively in the light conditions found underwater, opening possible uses in subsea sensors, marine monitoring equipment and autonomous underwater vehicles powered directly by ambient light rather than batteries or cables.
- 2Ukrainian robot grenade launchers hit Russian positions in Operation Vivaldi●👁 Військові операції. Роботи з гранатометами атакують позиції росіян під час операції "Вівальді". Про це повідомили в Тр
Ukraine's Third Army Corps says ground robots fitted with grenade launchers attacked Russian positions during an operation dubbed 'Vivaldi'. The robots, equipped with Bullspike grenade launchers, shelled occupant shelters, drove inside and detonated, according to the corps, which says the strikes destroyed Russian equipment and positions.
- 3US military expands AI with autonomous vehicles for Marines▼US military expands AI technology with autonomous vehicles for Marines
The US military is expanding its use of artificial intelligence by introducing autonomous vehicle technology for the Marine Corps. The move is part of a broader effort to modernize US armed forces with AI-driven systems, reducing the need for human operators in transport and battlefield roles.
- 4Nio to Run Separate Battery Swap Network for Geely's Cao Cao Fleet●Nio to Run Separate Swap Network for Geely’s Cao Cao Fleet and Robotaxis
Chinese electric vehicle maker Nio will operate a dedicated battery swapping network for Geely's ride-hailing brand Cao Cao Mobility and robotaxi fleets, according to an industry report. The arrangement would give Geely's commercial fleets access to Nio's fast battery swap technology through a segregated network, separate from the one serving Nio's own customers, as both automakers push deeper into fleet and autonomous mobility services.
- 5Tycho.AI to build autonomous counter-drone interceptor for USSOCOM●Tycho.AI to develop small autonomous counter-drone interceptor for USSOCOM
Tycho.AI has been selected to develop a small autonomous interceptor designed to counter enemy drones for US Special Operations Command. The system would give special operations forces a compact way to neutralize hostile unmanned aerial vehicles. The announcement draws attention to the accelerating push within the US defense sector to field AI-driven counter-drone technologies as drone threats multiply across conflict zones.
- 6Zoox begins testing autonomous vehicle technology in Denver▼Autonomous vehicle company Zoox training technology in Denver
Autonomous vehicle company Zoox is training its self-driving technology on the streets of Denver, according to CBS News. The move marks an expansion of the Amazon-owned robotaxi firm's testing operations, bringing its driverless vehicle program to a new US city. Details on the scope and timeline of the Denver testing have not yet been made public.
