Engineers at the University of Colorado of Boulder and Sandia National Laboratories have developed a new design for padding that can better withstand strong impacts than conventional materials. The new padding could be used wherever Read More
The first fire-resistant, onsite-built, concrete accessory dwelling unit (ADU) will soon be constructed in Northern California using a robotic 3D printer. ADUs can be a cost-effective way to address the current housing shortage issue in Read More
The formation of ice on wind turbine rotor blades causes a variety of problems, including rotational imbalance which leads to increased wear and tear. The Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials (IFAM) and Read More
Researchers at EPFL’s Reconfigurable Robotics Lab (RRL) have designed a sensor that can simultaneously detect multiple stimuli – such as bending, stretching, compression, and temperature shifts – by using color. The new sensor shows promise Read More
Norse Atlantic Airways has partnered with Avinxt to use AI robots to perform regular maintenance functions, such as de-icing and washing. The airline points out that the use of this technology will both reduce carbon Read More
A team led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBL) has designed a new self-assembling nanosheet that has the potential to radically accelerate the development of functional and sustainable nanomaterials for electronics, energy storage, health and Read More
Researchers from MIT, Inkbit – an the MIT spinout, and ETH Zurich have designed a 3D inkjet printing system that not only expands the range of materials available, but also demonstrates a much higher speed Read More
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has funded the development of a microgrid orchestrator designed to establish a network of microgrids that can be managed as a single cluster – essentially creating a grid of Read More
Dr. Qiushi Guo of CUNY has demonstrated a novel approach for creating high-performance ultrafast lasers on nanophotonic chips. His work is focussed on miniaturizing mode-locked lasers – unique lasers that emit a train of ultrashort, Read More
A team from the University of Barcelona has trained a group of mini robots to reach a consensus on tasks by copying processes displayed by honeybees. The study could lead to the development of “simple Read More
