Firefighting AI Drones

We currently see AI-controlled drone swarms with a 500 km range capable of inflicting damage on an enemy. The concept involves leveraging this technology and swarming techniques to monitor areas prone to seasonal fires—such as the hills of Los Angeles—and to conduct targeted strikes on nascent fires in forests or inaccessible terrain.

Room-Temperature Photonic Continuous Time Crystal Based on Photorefractive Lithium Niobate

Continuous Time Crystals (CTCs) have emerged as a fundamentally new class of nonequilibrium systems that spontaneously transform continuous energy input into periodic temporal order. While the earliest theoretical proposals focused on isolated quantum many-body systems, recent advances have demonstrated that continuous time-crystalline behavior can also emerge in dissipative nonlinear systems driven far from equilibrium.
