Northwestern University researchers from multiple disciplines – including chemists, materials scientists, and biomedical engineers – have teamed up to create a transistor that is expected to be optimal for bioelectronics that need to be high-performance, Read More
Engineers at Ben-Gurion University (BGU) of the Negev in Israel have developed a very fast and efficient amphibious robot with potential uses in search and rescue operations and marine agriculture. The bot relies on an Read More
A team at Nanyang Technological University has created an artificial skin that surpasses human skin in its sensitivity to detect pressure applied by an object and its approach. The skin is made up of two Read More
A team at The University of Tokyo recently introduced SPIDAR – a SPherIcally vectorable and Distributed rotors assisted Air-ground amphibious quadruped Robot. SPIDAR is a novel air-ground amphibious quadruped robot that has multimodal locomotion capability Read More
A team at Carnegie Mellon University has developed a technique of tracking human bodies through walls using WiFi signals. While the technology has already existed for a few years, the new technique has the WiFi Read More
Visible light communication (VLC) – a wireless method that enables high-speed transmission of data with visible light – is a promising technology for future 6G networks. The use of visible light for data transmission has Read More
The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) has developed a method that allows a flapping-wing robot to land autonomously on a horizontal perch using a claw-like mechanism. Until now, flapping-wing vehicles – called ornithopters Read More
Researchers at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) – along with Leonardo S.p.A and GMV – recently unveiled a new prototype tripedal robot for use in space. The MARM (Multi-Arm Relocatable Manipulator) platform is part Read More
Researchers at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) have developed a new method to chemically break up poly- and per-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) – also called Forever Chemicals. PFAS are used to make fluoropolymer coatings and Read More
Researchers at Ontario’s University of Waterloo have created a drone-powered airborne scanning device that can triangulate the location of every WiFi-connected device within a building. The device – called Wi-Peep – engages in what the Read More
