Level 4 Autonomous Driving: In a crucial development for autonomous mobility and remote‑vehicle oversight, Japanese technology giant NTT, Inc. has announced that it has developed a “Parametric object‑recognition‑ratio­‑estimation model” to assess whether video transmitted from an autonomous vehicle to a remote control station is of sufficient quality to reliably detect objects in front of the…

Goverment Migrates 12Lakh Emails: India’s central government has initiated a large‑scale migration of official email accounts—approximately 12 lakh (1.2 million) accounts—to the domestic email platform Zoho Mail, signalling a major milestone in the country’s push for digital self‑reliance and data sovereignty.  Strategic Context Why the Shift Matters For years, India’s public‑sector departments and government employees have relied…

Ultrathin Transistor Material: The research team at the University of Chicago, in collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory, fabricated a transistor device that uses a layer of atomically thin semiconductor topped by a sheet of molecular crystal. Unlike traditional transistors which rely on stacking diverse semiconductor materials (n‑type/ p‑type), this device leverages charge localization—a phenomenon where electrons…
