  Nvidia launches new supercomputer with monster AI performance . Perlmutter could complete tasks in days that would normally take months.                             Perlmutter(left) was named after the astrophysicist Saul Perlmutter(right)   The newest   big-na m e supercomputer  might help solve some of astrophysics' most important questions.  Nvidia  has fired up a new   supercomputer  said to be the fastest in the world for AI workloads at the National Energy Research Scientific Computer Center (NERSC)  in California.  T he National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center has officially  dedicated   Perlmutter , billed as one of the fastest supercomputers for AI, and it will start by  helping to build the largest-ever 3D map of the visible universe to study the dark energy accelerating the cosmos' expansion.   The supercomputer is  nam...

Imagine a video call where the person on the other side of the screen feels real, almost as if they are really present in front of you.  A 3D real-life version of themselves and yourself in a video call, instead of the flat two-dimension look we are used to at the moment. Call it hyper-telepresence. Call it whatever you want. Project Starline brings a more personal feel to the conversations. It is almost like a holographic touch and you feel that the person you are conversing with is right here. What is Project Starline?   Project Starline is an experimental video communication method currently in development by Google that allows the user to see a 3D model of the person they are communicating with. Google announced the product at its 2021 I/O developer conference, saying that it will allow users to "talk naturally, and make eye contact". Google says it using "research in computer vision, machine learning, spatial audio, and real-time compression" to make these rea...

The year 2020 has made everyone realize the significance of face masks. People who have not even heard of it are using it for everyday purposes. Even though there are so many options, it is hard to find the one that is reusable and packed with advanced features like N95. Fortunately, we have a cool face mask today, UV Mask, one of the coolest looking, feature packed and tech enabled face masks.  The Significance of UV Light: An ultraviolet mask uses UV light to sterilize the air. It has been developed to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the mask in protecting the consumer from harmful pollutants. Design of UV Mask Features of UV Mask: Some of the important features of the UV Mask are: Dual Protection:  The UV Mask purifies both the air inhaled and exhaled, henceforth protecting both the user and those around. Natural Breath: The UV mask is 100% airtight, which ensures that the air inhaled passes through the filters of the mask. Breathing is made easy and natural by...

“Virtualization software (for 5G) means different things to different people.”  While earlier generations of cellular technology (such as 4G LTE) focused on ensuring connectivity, 5G takes connectivity to the next level by delivering connected experiences from the cloud to clients. 5G is the 5th generation mobile network. It is a new global wireless standard after 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G networks. 5G enables a new kind of network that is designed to connect virtually everyone and everything together including machines, objects, and devices. 5G technology should improve connectivity in underserved rural areas and in cities where demand can outstrip today's capacity with 4G technology. 5G wireless technology is meant to deliver higher multi-Gbps peak data speeds, more reliability, massive network capacity, increased availability, and a more uniform user experience to more users. What are the underlying technologies that make up 5G? 5G is based OFDM (Orthogonal frequency-division multipl...
