Scientists just built a computer that doesn’t require electricity
A steel bar pivots. A spring stretches. Then, with a small shove, the whole setup flips into a new state and stays there until the next push. That simple motion sits at the heart of a mechanical ...
Researchers from St. Olaf College built a computer made entirely of mechanical components that can perform simple computations without electricity or batteries.
Researchers from St. Olaf College and Syracuse University in the US have unveiled a computer that functions entirely through ...
Researchers have developed a kirigami-inspired mechanical computer that uses a complex structure of rigid, interconnected polymer cubes to store, retrieve and erase data without relying on electronic ...
Back in the 70’s when computers were fairly expensive and out of reach for most people, [David Hagelbarger] of Bell Laboratories designed CARDIAC: CARDboard Illustrative Aid to Computation. CARDIAC ...
Nextbigfuture has covered the nanomechanical computer design created by Ralph Merkle, Robert Freitas, Tad Hogg, Thomas E. Moore, Matthew S. Moses and James Ryley several times. A team from UCLA and ...
