The University of Utah has made a microcircuit capable of surviving high levels of radiation. The university previously made this tiny micro-electro-mechanical system capable of cutting a single hair.

Google and others have developed smart clothing with built-in integrated circuits, but what if the textile itself formed the circuit? That's the idea behind The Embroidered Computer, an interactive ...

In deciding patent eligibility of computer-implemented claims, courts consider whether the claims merely implement a generic computer or whether they improve the functioning of the computer itself.

Researchers at PARC and Thinfilm Electronics have finally managed to print -- as in, using a printer that is similar to the one attached to your computer -- a computer circuit consisting of ...

Teenagers swear they study better with music blaring in the background, though parents may disagree. Now engineers have made digital circuits work better in “noisy” environments too. For circuits, the ...

Braden Katterheinrich, Richard Marsh, Jr. “We do not read Alice to broadly hold that all improvements in computer-related technology are inherently abstract and, therefore, must be considered at step ...
