I guess this place is mostly used for character discussion and stuff like that, but since I am "something of a designer myself", I decided to share this article I found not that long ago. It's about creating the HUDs in the first Iron Man film, and I absolutely love how they broke it down there. Maybe some of you find it great as well.

There's a certain amount of people who went study engineering because of Iron Man movies, but there's also quite a lot of folks who turned into VFX, design and animation after seeing those mind-blowing interfaces. I guess, almost every motion designer had an "Iron Man alike HUD/FUI" project on their hard drive at some point. I mean, I had one too :D

So if you're into Iron Man, film making and design - that's a solid recommendation for reading. There's the link:

Spin-to-Charge Conversion Without Magnetic Electrodes

Measurements reveal the physical processes occurring where a magnetic insulator and few-layer graphene abut each other. [...] A central goal of spintronics is to create and manipulate spin-polarized currents. Typically, spintronic devices rely on magnetic electrodes for spin injection. However, a graphene–antiferromagnet interface could potentially offer a more efficient and energy-saving way to control current, functioning like an electrostatic gate. Theorists have predicted that magnons—collective spin excitations in a material—could couple to electrons at this interface, thereby mediating electron transport. Now Sujan Maity of the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science and his colleagues have measured the predicted electron–magnon coupling [1]. The interaction at the interface allows for direct spin-to-charge conversion without the need for magnetic electrodes.

One of the really interesting/instructive things about VR finally getting to a place where it operates more or less like scifi always envisioned it(relatively lightweight headsets; hand controls) has been finding out that it's actually Shit for information processing. Like: Great for entertainment applications apparently(I've never used it tbf and I'm not currently interested in doing so), seeing HUGE use for just, like, Hanging Out online in improbable spaces, but from everything I've heard/read it's not only clunky and slow for navigating/organizing/processing information, but that whole Thing of "grabbing" and moving stuff around, resizing it and the like, seems to make some people really nauseous.

So, while VR's THERE now, we're probably not going to see VR interfaces taking over internet use anytime soon, cuz it turns out that terminal computers are just Functionally Better -faster, more legible, more comfortable to use- at navigating, organizing, and manipulating data. So like: it seems like we'll definitely have a future of Randos hanging out in impossible cyberbars wearing infinitely creative bodies, but coders will still be out Here, typing away at mechanical keyboards plugged into towers :p

Siempre me gustaron las interfaces de las computadoras de "La Femme Nikita", adelantada serie para la época.

OMG, some of these are so fantastically CHAOTIC EVIL, I can't :D.

Thank you, /r/ProgrammerHumor, I love you endlessly.

Researchers advance substrate engineering pathways to improve power electronics

As the growth in global electricity need and supply continues to accelerate, efficient power electronics will be key to improving grid efficiency, stability, integration, and resilience for all energy sources. Advances in wide-bandgap materials for semiconductors offer the potential to enable greater power handling in power electronics while reducing electrical and thermal losses. Wide-bandgap materials also allow for smaller, faster, more reliable, and more energy-efficient power electronic components than current commercial silicon-based power electronic components. Researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the Colorado School of Mines, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory examined a potential route to achieve peak performance of aluminum gallium nitride, AlxGa1-xN, a key material for increasing power electronics' energy efficiency and performance, through growth on optimized substrate materials.
