Nikola Labs at IDTechEx Show! Cell Phone Case that Extends Battery

Video interview with Will Zell, CEO of Nikola Labs at the Energy Harvesting & Storage USA event.

Solar roads find many uses

Installing photovoltaics in roads seems a daft idea at first. It sounds expensive and unlikely to work unless cleaned, free of snow and ice and in direct sunlight - all too infrequent in most places. Indeed, roads are constantly dug up by utilities, repairmen and others. How do you do that with sheets of glass?

The new Ultra HD standard and why it matters for quantum dot suppliers

The UHD Alliance has launched a new standard for TV. Our analyst explains why it will help new display technologies based on quantum dots.
