Digital data in DNA!
Researchers have found a way to store digital files such as music, images, text, or the like in the DNA, and then almost completely incorrect reading it out again. But how is that possible?
In one experiment, an audio file of Martin Luther King Jr., digital photos and works of Shakespeare in a DNA were stored. Previously had a software ones and zeroes of the files in the DNA bases adenine (A) to convert guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T). After recording the data they tried to read these files back and with an accuracy of 99.99 percent of them succeeded in the miracle then.
This is an extremely important development for the future of data storage. In a cup of DNA could 100 million hours video material is stored at the highest resolution.
But there are still many years pass before it could come to a practical use, because the saving still makes very little cost. The researchers expect that it will take more than 10 years.
Now you can Upload all your files to your wife ;) I hope it will be plug&play.
