West Lafayette, Ind.-based Ixana, inventor of a new wireless technology with the potential to transform human computer interaction, won the award for Startup of the year during TechPoint’s 24th annual Mira Awards gala honoring the best of tech in Indiana.

To keep up with the U.S.’s manufacturing goals set out in the CHIPs for America and CHIPS and Science Acts, the U.S. must invest in its workforce, according to panelists that spoke during a summit hosted by Purdue University on Tuesday.

Purdue University announced that the school is making huge investments in computer science, AI, and semiconductors, which will push the school to the forefront of defining artificial intelligence.

On the latest “UnPHILtered,” we are joined by Purdue President Mung Chiang, and discuss what Purdue has planned for their future in technology.

Despite the fast-evolving capabilities of AI chatbots to write code as well as human language, many computer science educators see significant limits for these tools in accuracy, security and copyright infringement.

Will Purdue University help Indiana become the Silicon Valley of the Midwest?

On Monday night’s “UnPHILtered,” News 8 anchor Phil Sanchez talked with Mark Lundstrom, a distinguished professor of electrical and computer engineering at Purdue, to learn why the school has been named one of the most innovative in the world and what it means for the Hoosier State.

What if you could drive your electric car anywhere in America and the road would charge it for you? Wireless EV charging may sound like science fiction, but it’s happening in Indiana, where researchers from ASPIRE are paving the way for an electrified future.

Keeping indoor spaces comfortable takes a lot of power. About half the energy Americans use in their homes goes toward heating and cooling, accounting for a sizable chunk of both utility bills and greenhouse gas emissions.

Microchip fab plants in the United States can cram billions of data processing transistors onto a tiny silicon chip, but a critical device, in essence a “clock,” to time the operation of those transistors must be made separately – creating a weak point in chip security and the supply line.

It is important to recognize and leverage diversity, not just race but skills in work environment! It helps in an overall team environment. Soft skills that include looking beyond the traditional diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, etc. Diversity of skills in developing future job offerings is critical in the workplace.

Researchers at Purdue University have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of thermal radiation, uncovering a new method for generating spinning thermal radiation in a controlled and efficient manner using artificially structured surfaces, known as metasurfaces.
