The recovery team found the OceanGate Titan submersible's camera housing damaged but the internal SanDisk SD card remained intact. The SD card contained 12 stills and nine videos, but none were from the sub's implosion. The camera's PCBs showed some damage, with components like the Qualcomm SD820 processor and Teensy 4.0 or 3.2 MCU identified. Through data recovery efforts, 12 stills and nine videos were successfully retrieved from the SD card, revealing images taken near the Titanic wreck's logistical base, not from the accident dive itself.

New 3D device computes using living brain cells — bioelectronic device uses 3D electronic mesh design paired with living tissue

Researchers at Princeton University have developed a 3D bioelectronic device that merges living brain cells with advanced embedded electronics to create a neural network capable of computational tasks. The device features a 3D mesh design with living tissue that can differentiate patterns using computational techniques. Unlike previous methods using brain cells for computation, this device allows for recording and stimulating neurons' electrical activity at a finer scale. The team successfully trained the device to identify recurring pulse patterns and differentiate between distinct patterns, aiming to scale it for more complex tasks. This technology not only delves into brain computing secrets but also holds potential for understanding and treating neurological diseases while addressing AI's energy consumption challenges.

Apex Gaming PCs recalls nearly 18,000 power supplies over missing safety labels — the fix is a warning sticker sent by mail, units are entirely safe

Apex Gaming PCs is recalling nearly 18,000 power supplies due to missing safety labels that identify electrical shock and electrocution hazards. The affected units were sold between December 2021 and February 2026, both as standalone components and pre-installed in gaming desktops. The recall is not due to a hardware defect, as the power supplies are safe to use, but lack necessary warning labels. Customers will receive warning stickers by mail or can request a replacement PSU. The company advises users to stop using the recalled PSUs and not to open or service them.

1,200-V SiC Half-Bridge Modules Offer Easy Upgrade Path for IGBT-Based Designs

1,200-V SiC Half-Bridge Modules Offer Easy Upgrade Path for IGBT-Based Designs

SemiQ Inc. has introduced the QSiC Dual3 family of 1,200-V half-bridge MOSFET modules designed for applications like motor drives in data center cooling systems and grid converters in energy storage systems. These modules feature 1-mΩ on-resistance SiC MOSFETs and parallel SiC diodes for enhanced power-conversion efficiency. The QSiC Dual3 modules are created to facilitate the replacement of IGBT modules with minimal redesign, offering benefits like high power density and low junction-to-case thermal resistance. The modules have undergone rigorous testing and aim to simplify system design with smaller, lighter heatsinks.
