Friday Night Baseball terá transmissões imersivas para o Apple Vision Pro

10 August 2026 at 18:48

Pela primeira vez, o Friday Night Baseball será transmitido ao vivo no formato Apple Immersive, permitindo que usuários do Apple Vision Pro assistam às partidas em 3D. O primeiro jogo transmitido no formato será entre o Boston Red Sox e o New York Yankees, no dia 28 de agosto (uma sexta-feira).

A Apple informou em um comunicado que as escalações das equipes e as estatísticas aparecerão flutuando na tela e que haverá uma vista do estádio com Áudio Espacial durante as pausas na partida.

Os espectadores com Vision Pro vivenciarão a icônica rivalidade entre Red Sox e Yankees a partir de ângulos de câmera exclusivos que os colocam dentro do jogo, imersos na tensão de cada duelo entre rebatedor e arremessador, nas comemorações no banco de reservas após uma grande rebatida, nas jogadas decisivas junto ao muro do campo externo e muito mais.

Quatro das sete partidas do Friday Night Baseball até setembro serão transmitidas em Apple Immersive; a programação completa pode ser conferida abaixo.

Wolfenshine é uma versão modernizada do clássico jogo Wolfenstein 3D

4 August 2026 at 13:00

O popular jogo Wolfenstein 3D (um dos primeiros games de tiro em primeira pessoa do mercado) foi reconstruído do zero como parte de um novo projeto para modernizá-lo.

O objetivo dessa empreitada, denominada Wolfenshine, foi superar as limitações técnicas da época em que o jogo foi lançado e que o impediam de ter coisas como sombras, luzes coloridas, neblinas e outros efeitos.

O novo projeto, por sua vez, faz uso dos arquivos de mapas, inimigos, armas, sons e gráficos do jogo original — que não são distribuídos junto do Wolfenshine, mas lidos a partir de uma cópia própria do usuário (seja a versão shareware gratuita ou a completa, com as seis fases) — e acrescenta uma camada de efeitos modernos por cima, levando um pouco da tecnologia atual para o game.

Com isso, salas que teoricamente deveriam ser iluminadas por uma lâmpada passam a realmente contar com iluminação, corredores passam a exibir a luz originada por uma porta aberta, dentre outras coisas bem legais.

A jogabilidade, cabe destacar, continua exatamente a mesma. Como o game usa os mesmos arquivos da versão original, basta apertar F2 no teclado para alternar entre o visual clássico e o do Wolfenshine, num passe de mágica.

O Wolfenshine é um projeto de código aberto. O código-fonte e todos os detalhes técnicos (incluindo o passo a passo para a sua instalação) estão disponíveis no repositório oficial no GitHub, onde ele pode ser baixado em versões para macOS, Windows e Linux.

Researchers Have Created a 3D Thermal Cloak That Renders Objects Invisible to Heat

20 July 2026 at 18:07

A three-dimensional thermal cloak that can conceal objects from heat, while also shielding them from extreme temperatures, has been developed by researchers in a breakthrough with significant potential for quantum electronics and military stealth technologies.

The breakthrough, led by University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign civil and environmental engineering professor Shelly Zhang in collaboration with colleagues at the Technical University of Denmark, differs from past thermal cloaks that only function in two dimensions, or in a single direction.

The team’s new device is capable of guiding heat around an object, regardless of the origin point of the heat source. When used with an infrared camera, the cloaked object effectively disappears, while the temperature inside the protected region remains stable.

The team’s achievement was detailed in a new study published in Nature Communications.

A Novel Approach to 3D Thermal Cloaking

Unlike previous thermal cloaks, which only worked in two dimensions or from a single direction, the new device guides heat around an object regardless of where the heat originates. To an infrared camera, the cloaked object effectively disappears, while the temperature inside the protected region remains stable.

“A real thermal cloak should work no matter where the heat comes from,” Zhang said in a recent statement. “Our device can hide a complex 3D object in an infinite number of directions while keeping the temperature inside stable and protected.”

As opposed to blocking heat, Zhang and her team’s new cloak redirects it around an object, preserving the temperature field in the surrounding area as though nothing were present.

Although the concept has existed theoretically for many years already, researchers have encountered challenges when it comes to practically leveraging such capabilities.

Redirecting Heat Around Hidden Objects

To overcome past hurdles engineers have faced, Zhang and her team designed a novel lattice-based material, which exhibits thermal properties that allow it to be “tuned” with a great degree of precision in three dimensions.

By combining a 3D-printed aluminum lattice, which serves as a good heat conductor, with a molded rubber-like material that functions as a thermal insulator, the team was able to control the flow of heat through different regions of the device. Additional lab testing helped to confirm its functionality as intended.

Placed between hot and cold environments, the cloak redirected heat around hidden objects, producing an external thermal pattern which they say appeared essentially undisturbed. Simultaneously, temperatures within the cloaked region remained largely uniform, despite the surrounding thermal gradient.

As a further demonstration of its capabilities, the researchers then successfully concealed objects with highly complex three-dimensional geometries, which included detailed head-shaped models that they say surpassed the performance of past versions of thermal cloaks.

Defense and Security Applications

Zhang says the technology could have a wide range of potential applications, especially where precise thermal control is a requirement.

“Any field that needs precise control of heat or needs to protect something from being detected thermally could benefit from this work,” Zhang said in a statement, “But we also see it more broadly: it’s about hiding and protecting information that is carried by heat.”

Additionally, the technology could have applications involving the use of similar cloaks to protect sensitive electronics and microchips from damaging heat, improve thermal management in advanced computing systems, and shield equipment from detection using infrared, which may be useful in security and defense technologies.

Going forward, the team plans on exploring more advanced designs capable of concealing objects that generate their own heat, which could pave the way toward more active thermal cloaks in the coming years that could dynamically manipulate heat and still remain effectively invisible to infrared sensors.

The team detailed their research in a recent paper, “Free-form thermal cloaks in three dimensions,” which appeared in Nature Communications.

AMD extends Socket AM5 support through at least 2029; AM4 refuses to die

1 June 2026 at 18:02

One of the benefits of building an AMD PC is that the company has historically supported its processor sockets for longer than Intel does, allowing the same motherboard (and RAM kit, if you want) to power your PC through multiple CPU upgrades. Today at Computex, AMD announced chips for the current AM5 socket and the improbably-still-around AM4 socket that will help extend their lives a little further, a nod to just how expensive it has become to build a new PC or perform a major upgrade these days.

The first of these announcements is something we knew about already: the relaunch of 2022's Ryzen 7 5800X3D, the first of AMD's commercially available 3D V-Cache processors. Dubbed a "10th Anniversary Edition" in reference to how long Socket AM4 has been around, the re-released chip is slower than regular 8-core Ryzen 5000-series CPUs in general productivity tasks but comes with 64MB of extra L3 cache that disproportionately benefits games. If you're trying to use a high-end GPU with an AM4 motherboard, it could help keep your CPU from being a performance bottleneck. The 5800X3D (re-)releases on June 25 for a suggested retail price of $349, which is less than it currently costs to buy secondhand.

As for the current AM5 socket, AMD officially announced that it was extending its support to at least 2029—it was originally planned to last until 2025, then until "2027+," so that means between two and four years of additional support, depending on how you're counting.
