Student View: Challenging the quantum advantage boundary
My interest in quantum computing started for a pretty simple reason: The mathematical symbols looked really cool and complicated.
At the time, I did not know what most of them meant. But I wanted to.
Helping wireless devices find their location without GPS
We expect our phones, cars and other connected technologies to know where they are and to communicate wherever we go. The Global Positioning System, or GPS, helps make that possible, but the satellite signals GPS uses can’t reach everywhere. Inside buildings, underground and among tall buildings, those signals can be blocked or disrupted. Now, Michigan State University researchers have demonstrated how wireless systems can work together without relying on GPS.
MSU AI innovation supports 2.2M US workers exposed to toxic dust
From coal miners and construction crews to engineered stone countertop fabricators and foundry workers, more than 2.2 million U.S. workers inhale fine particles of rock, sand or coal every day on the job. After years of exposure, trapped dust can cause thick scar tissue to build up inside the lungs leading to long-term lung damage commonly known as black lung or silicosis.
