Scientists at ETH Zurich and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne have developed a device that directs sound waves in one direction without wasting energy. This breakthrough sound wave ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...

Optical neural networks may provide the high-speed and large-capacity solution necessary to tackle challenging computing tasks. However, tapping their full potential will require further advances. One ...

Researchers have now created a new type of glass using nothing but sound waves and salt. Sure, that might sound like one heck of a science experiment—and in a way, it is—but it's also a major ...

The film "LearningAboutSound" explores the science of sound, detailing how vibrations create sound waves that travel through different mediums like air, water, and solids. It explains key concepts ...

No rainstorm is needed for this rainbow — it’s made out of sound. Using an oddly shaped plastic device, scientists have created an acoustic rainbow, separating white noise according to its various ...
