@kalam_labs Why do you lie with 35 km altitude That’s 115.000 feet. No UAV can reach that high Why do Indians lie so much?

#DefenceCentral: #Bayraktar TB3 Completes First Flight from TCG Anadolu Türkiye's Bayraktar TB3 unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) achieved a historic milestone last month by completing its first flight from the deck of the TCG Anadolu aircraft carrier. This marks the first successful takeoff and landing of a UAV on a short-runway carrier. The TB3, with folding wings and a payload capacity of 280 kg, is designed for long-range missions, operating alongside the jet-powered Bayraktar Kızılelma in an innovative unmanned fleet. It boasts a mission radius of 2,200 km and a maximum altitude of 30,000 ft.

India's Vimag Labs Cracks Rare Earth Monopoly With Magnet-Free Motor A five-person Bengaluru startup has achieved what Tesla and GM could not: filing a fifth foundational patent for an electric motor that runs on zero rare-earth magnets, cracking China's grip on global electric vehicle supply chains. Let’s break down Vimag Labs' Virtual Magnet Synchronous Motor architecture, why this fifth patent protects the core design that competitors cannot engineer around, the $5 million Series A backing its scale-up across India, Europe and the United States, and what a magnet-free motor means for India's electric vehicles industry and its dependence on China's rare earth monopoly.

Austria-based startup CycloTech is developing flying aircraft powered by CycloRotor technology instead of traditional propellers. The company plans to build a four-seater air taxi with four CycloRotors, offering an 85 km range, 40 minutes of flight time, and a cruising speed of 150 km/h. Each CycloRotor uses rotating wings that continuously change their angle to generate thrust, allowing the aircraft to move precisely in any direction.

“At Pine Labs, 50% of customer interactions are now handled by A.I. and 18% of the code is written by GenAI. We won’t hire even one more person beyond the 1000 engineers we have today.” That’s Pine Labs CEO Amrish Rau on #YoungTurksReloaded, breaking down how A.I. is reshaping one of India’s biggest fintech players, and why this shift has led to a complete freeze on tech hiring.

ICYMI: Brains are trending.. OpenAI made a direct investment into Merge Labs' $252M Seed at $850M valuation Merge Labs Labs is a Brain-Computer Interface ("BCI") research lab co-founded by Sam Altman, Alex Blania, & key frontier tech leaders (below) with expertise in neuroscience, bioengineering, hardware, AI systems, & foundational research. Unlike Elon Musk's Neuralink, which utilizes surgical implants, Merge Labs is developing non-invasive, high-bandwidth brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). The company uses a combination of ultrasound, AI-driven signal interpretation, and potentially genetic engineering to read neural activity without surgery. Founding Team: Alex Blania (Alex Blania) – Co-founder of World, an Altman-co-founded digital proof of human protocol; co-founder of Merge Labs. Sam Altman (Sam Altman) – CEO of OpenAI; co-founder of Merge Labs participating in a personal capacity. Altman has been reported as likely to serve in a strategic role but not in day-to-day operational management of Merge Labs. Mikhail Shapiro (Mikhail Shapiro (same on bsky)) – Professor of Chemical and Medical Engineering at Caltech and founding scientific leader for Merge Labs. He has also served as an adviser to Forest Neurotech. Sumner Norman (Sumner L Norman) – CEO of Forest Neurotech, a nonprofit research organization focused on ultrasound-based brain-computer interface technologies; also a co-founder of Merge Labs. Sandro Herbig (Sandro Herbig) – Identified as a technology entrepreneur and co-founder of Merge Labs with prior systems and product experience, including work with Blania on Tools for Humanity and World. While specific current corporate title at Merge hasn’t been publicly detailed, he is recognized as part of the founding leadership team. Tyson Aflalo – Chief Scientific Officer of Forest Neurotech prior to Merge Labs; co-founder and technical lead at Merge Labs with expertise in neural engineering and ultrasound BCI research. . . . "It’s a direct investment from OpenAI, not their venture arm, so it’s an actual collaboration. As we were discussing the investment, there were many different dimensions where collaboration could make sense. One area is protein design. We’re working extensively with proteins, and that’s an area that’s broadly interesting to OpenAI. It’s one of the most compelling applications of AI — for example, the work Google did with AlphaFold. More broadly, AI has significant implications for biology and for accelerating that part of what we’re building. Another area is chips. Eventually, once we have a clear scientific understanding of what we’re building and how it will work, a major focus for many years will be on making these chips highly energy efficient."

🇮🇳⚡️A Bengaluru-based Indian startup has developed technology that global automobile manufacturers have been working on for years. This achievement has dealt a blow to one of our biggest enemies and also helped reduce the electric vehicle industry's dependence on China's rare earth magnet supply chain. A Bengaluru startup called Vimag Labs just secured its fifth Indian patent for an electric motor that runs without any rare-earth magnets, using software and power electronics to generate its magnetic field instead. It’s a small, $5-million company taking a swing at a problem that has stumped Tesla, GM, and every major automaker for years:

PM Narendra Modi has a phenomenal memory. On 16th Jan, 2016, when we launched Startup India only Startup founders were seated with PM on the dias. Suchi Mukherjee, founder of Limeroad had shared her mother's apprehensive reaction to her startup ambitions, encapsulated in the word "sarvanash," meaning disaster. This anecdote was recounted by the PM today at Startup Mahakumbh. From a modest beginning with around 150 startups in 2016, India has burgeoned into the world's third-largest startup ecosystem, boasting over 125,000 startups, including more than 115 unicorns with a combined valuation exceeding $350 billion. Steered by PM Narendra Modi's foresight & vision and fueled by the innovative spirit of India's youth, this growth marks a departure from skepticism to an era where entrepreneurship is celebrated and pursued by the nation's brightest minds. This journey from "sarvanash" to “safalta” (success) encapsulates the essence of India's startup revolution.
