Solar Drone with Wingspan Wider Than Jumbo Jet Could Fly for Months - A major leap for aerospace

  Solar Drone with Wingspan Wider Than Jumbo Jet Could Fly for Months In a major leap for aerospace engineering and sustainable flight, a new solar-powered drone boasting a wingspan wider than a Boeing 747 is poised to change the way we think about long-endurance aerial missions. Designed to operate at stratospheric altitudes for months at a time, this high-altitude pseudo-satellite (HAPS) drone could revolutionize global connectivity, environmental monitoring, and disaster response. A Giant in the Sky The drone, developed by [Insert Company or Organization if known], stretches over 80 meters (260 feet) across — wider than the iconic Boeing 747’s 68.5-meter wingspan. Despite its massive size, the aircraft is ultra-lightweight, constructed from carbon fiber composites and powered entirely by solar energy. During daylight hours, solar panels mounted on the wings charge onboard batteries, allowing the aircraft to remain aloft through the night. Its design is optimized for slow, st...

Spotting Image Differences in Visual Software Testing with AI: A Smarter Approach to Quality Assurance

  Spotting Image Differences in Visual Software Testing with AI: A Smarter Approach to Quality Assurance In today’s fast-paced digital ecosystem, delivering pixel-perfect software interfaces is essential. As applications become increasingly visual—especially across platforms like mobile, web, and embedded systems— visual software testing has taken center stage in quality assurance. At the heart of this transformation is AI-powered image comparison , a method revolutionizing how developers and testers identify UI regressions and rendering anomalies. 📷 What Is Visual Software Testing? Visual testing ensures that a software application appears as intended to the end user. Unlike functional testing, which validates logic and backend processes, visual testing focuses on: UI layout accuracy Font, color, spacing, and style adherence Image placement and resolution Cross-browser/device rendering consistency Traditionally, testers would manually compare screenshots or re...
