Researchers at Rice University created a flexible material that combines the characteristics of a high-energy battery and high-powered supercapacitor that has potential use in portable, wearable electronics.

A team of researchers at the University of Southern California collaborated with Samsung to develop a model that interprets how fast wireless devices can capture and store energy to demonstrate that complex networks can be run on renewable energy sources.

A new wireless technology is being developed that makes better use of the wireless spectrum and uses a different approach than current wireless technology. This new technology, pCell, uses signal interference where signals overlap and create small personal mobile internet cells.

The Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) has introduced a new program to incite small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to collaborate with the agency. A*STAR will grant royalty-free and exclusive intellectual property (IP) licenses for the first 18 months of the program.

A new battery material has been developed that can store ten times the amount of energy that lithium-ion batteries can store. The new material has the potential to increase the battery life of portable electronics and electronic vehicles.
