A Southern California start-up backed by Google and prominent venture capital firms announced on Wednesday a technology it claimed could slash the electricity consumption of a wide range of devices like industrial motors, hybrid cars, computers and cellphones.
The result could be electric cars that drive farther without recharging, the disappearance of bricklike device chargers and solar panels that generate more electricity, according to the founders of Transphorm.
The company, based in Goleta, Calif., has developed a power conversion module that it says cuts energy waste by 90 percent. Currently, about 10 percent of the energy generated in the United States is lost as electricity because it is converted from alternating current to direct current and back, according to Umesh Mishra, Transphorm’s chief executive.

Saw a PBS special last week about Living Forever and learned that biomechanical, lab grown organs, are now a reality. So many advances in just the last two years really changed how I viewed the future. I saw a video of a perfect set of lungs, grown from living cells, in a jar in a lab, respirating normally. I was totally blown away. This video from two years ago is an example of what science can achieve:
