Deep & Emerging TechMeet the Battery Startup Taking on China’s Giants
Solid-state batteries are a bet on both safety and supply-chain rebalancing—if non-Chinese players can crack mass production, EV and storage OEMs get real leverage. If your product roadmap depends on energy density or thermal safety, start scenario-planning around when, not if, solid-state becomes a viable option in your tier.
Deep & Emerging TechSK Hynix Chief Expects Memory Shortage to Last Into Next Decade
If a top DRAM supplier expects shortages beyond 2030, AI and data-heavy roadmaps are now capacity-constrained, not just budget-constrained. Lock in long-term memory supply and design for higher memory efficiency — architectures that waste HBM will get priced out.
Deep & Emerging TechTop Diamond NV-Centre Quantum Computing Companies in 2026
Diamond NV-center qubits running at room temperature shift quantum from lab-scale fridges to potentially more practical hardware footprints. If you’re in sensing, secure comms, or niche compute, start tracking NV-center roadmaps—they may hit deployable form factors before gate-based general-purpose quantum does for your use case.
Deep & Emerging TechOur expert praised Creality's K2 Plus 3D printer after his workshop tests — and it's just got a massive summer discount
High-end 3D printing at discount pricing keeps pushing advanced prototyping and small-batch production down-market. Hardware teams should revisit what they outsource — some vendor work can now be pulled in-house with modest capex.
