🧠 AI-powered ring translates sign language in real-time!
Researchers at Cornell University have created SpellRing, a tiny wearable device that uses micro-sonar and AI to track finger movements in American Sign Language (ASL). The ring, no bigger than a U.S. quarter, translates fingerspelled words with an impressive accuracy of up to 92%.
This breakthrough could revolutionize digital communication for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, making interactions with smartphones and computers smoother and more inclusive.

🔋⚛️ ETERNAL POWER: China Launches Nuclear Battery with 50-Year Lifespan
Imagine a device you won’t need to recharge for half a century. Chinese researchers have turned this concept into reality!
What is BV100?
• The world’s first commercial 3V betavoltaic battery by Betavolt
• Coin-sized nuclear battery using nickel-63
• Operational lifespan: 50 years without recharging 😱
• Converts radiation energy into electricity using semiconductor absorbers
Potential applications:
• Pacemakers and medical implants
• Spacecraft and satellites
• Remote sensors in hard-to-reach locations
• Deep-sea monitoring systems
Is it safe? 🤔
Absolutely! The beta particles from nickel-63 are so weak they can be blocked by a simple aluminum layer or even a sheet of paper. All radiation remains contained within the hermetically sealed casing.
The bigger picture:
• While the US and other countries are still developing prototypes, China has established a complete production chain
• Another Chinese project in development: carbon nuclear battery with up to 100 years of service life
• Low power output compared to conventional batteries, but revolutionary for specific applications
• High production costs, but game-changing for critical devices
This technology represents a significant milestone in creating truly long-lasting power sources for mission-critical devices.
