#Nvidia recalls all Shield Tablets due to battery fire hazard Nvidia promised spectacular, unprecedented gaming performance from its 8-inch Shield Tablet last year,
The company is now recalling its first Android tablet device due to a potential fire hazard posed by the battery,
but apparently its battery hasn't lived up to the same high standards. Nvidia has set up a replacement program
#New Battery Design is hybrid between Flow batteries and Conventional Solid Ones Cambridge, Mass. -based Battery Company 24m and researchers at MIT have developed a new manufacturing approach for lithium-ion batteries.
The approach will not only prove cost effective, but will improve their performance and make it easier to recycle.
Not much change has been noticed in the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries in the two decades.
and pumped through different compartments of the battery. Scientists said that the new battery design is a hybrid between flow batteries and conventional ones.
The research published in the Journal of Power Sources unveiled that the new approach has simplified manufacturing.
Also, the batteries become flexible and resistant to damage. Research paper'senior author Chiang said that after presenting the earlier research on the flow battery,
The new system leads to the production of battery that is more flexible and resilient. Around 10,000 batteries have been made by the company on its prototype assembly lines.
They will undergo testing by three industrial partners s
#Fiber Networks Ready for a Revamp, Engineers Unveil Method to Dispel Noise Effects The fiber optic data transmission will soon be enhanced significantly as electrical engineers at the UC San diego Qualcomm Institute have divulged a method to increase the capacity limit of high-bandwidth fiber optic cables.
#Gogoro's Electric scooter Has Swappable Batteries Taiwanese company, Gogoro has come up with a smart electric scooter that runs on swappable electric batteries.
Instead, this electric scooter functions on batteries, which can easily be changed when they are drained of power.
The scooter can cover about 60 miles on one battery with a Panasonic cell. The Gogoro electric scooter can reach 50 km h in 4. 2 seconds.
where the drivers can change the old battery with a new one, in just a few moments.
The batteries include 25 sensors a NFC technology, and a 256-bit security. Gogoro designed the battery in collaboration with Panasonic
and it an 18650-size automotive grade lithium ion cell. el go in and deploy vending machines,
and our job will be to make sure there is always a battery ready. One station per mile is
