Efficiency Record: Chinese Scientists Create Full-Sized Perovskite Panels Surpassing Silicon

Technology 08/18/2026, 02:26
🇨🇳 Chinese scientists from Nanjing University and RenShine have created record-breaking perovskite panels (0.72 m²) with 22% efficiency. In real-world tests, they outperformed silicon by 5.81% in the heat and showed phenomenal stability, losing only 2% of power over 1300 hours of testing. A breakthrough in treatment chemistry allowed the technology to be scaled. ☀️⚡ #Solar #Perovskite #RenewableEnergy

Humanoid UBTECH robots in a futuristic setting, symbolizing the delay of mass adoption until 2030

The Renaissance Illusion: Why Mass Adoption of Humanoid Robots is Delayed Until 2030

Technology 08/17/2026, 02:29
🤖 The Renaissance Illusion: Why Mass Adoption of Humanoid Robots is Delayed Until 2030 Despite a boom in shipments in 2026, the actual use of robots in industry accounts for only 15%. The rest go to demonstrations and software tests. 📉 Forecasts: from 60k to 100k robots per year, but mass production — no earlier than 2027. 💰 Price tag: up to $40k (currently more expensive), payback period unclear. 🛑 Barriers: safety, training complexity, and data fragmentation. #Robots #Technology #AI #Industry #XABinfo

China's Shadow Market: Mass Production of Modified GeForce RTX 4080 with 32GB Memory

Technology 08/12/2026, 06:17
🇨🇳 China has launched mass production of modified GeForce RTX 4080 cards with 32GB of memory. 🚀 In August 2026, a surge in offers for RTX 4080 cards was recorded on the secondary market in the Middle Kingdom, with memory volume increased from 16 to 32 GB. The cost of such "chipped" cards is around $1480. 🛠 Essence of the modification: physical replacement of memory chips and BIOS flashing. Bus width remains the same (256 bits), but the memory volume allows running heavy AI tasks. ⚠️ Risks: - Lack of official warranty. - Need to use modified drivers. - Questions regarding soldering reliability and longevity. For AI enthusiasts, this is currently the cheapest way to get 32 GB of memory, but the price is system stability. #RTX4080 #ChinaTech #HardwareMod

Infinite Flight: Chinese Scientists Create In-Air Laser Charging System for Drones

Technology 08/12/2026, 05:07
🇨🇳 Chinese scientists have created a breakthrough technology for drones, allowing them to charge from a laser directly in flight. Scientists from the Civil Aviation University of China developed a wing-mounted receiver using a tandem architecture: perovskite cells capture green laser light, while a thermoelectric generator converts heat into energy. 🔬 Key innovations: - Use of antimony triselenide nanocrystals to protect against overheating up to 90°C. - Integration of air cooling into the wing structure to increase efficiency. - The drone operated without power drops at 7820 rpm during tests. Despite the success, experts point out risks: difficulty aiming the laser in turbulence and safety threats. In the context of the ban on Chinese drones in the US (2025), this technology could become a new ace for Beijing. 🚁⚡️
