The new design is stackable and reconfigurable, for swapping out and building on existing sensors and neural network processors.

Internet-connected appliances tempt people with science fictionlike conveniences, but beneath the sparkling surface lurk potential privacy violations.

Smart devices can make our lives easier. But they also present security risks.

Engineers build a lower-energy chip that can prevent hackers from extracting hidden information from a smart device.

The rechargeable battery can be woven and washed, and could provide power for fiber-based electronic devices and sensors.

We believe fitness trackers keep us healthy, and connected toys keep children safe – but such devices are easily abused.

In a first, the digital fiber contains memory, temperature sensors, and a trained neural network program for inferring physical activity.

A new way to harvest power from 5G networks could make many of the batteries that power our devices a thing of the past, researchers say.

A smart thermostat quickly learns to optimize building microclimates for both energy consumption and user preference.
