Researchers at Rice University have developed an engineered wood that is stronger than its natural counterparts and can sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) from the surrounding air. To accomplish this, the team delignified – disintegrated the Read More
A team from the DOE’s Ames National Laboratory has developed a microscope that uses terahertz waves to collect data on material samples. This new characterization tool is also unique in that it shines the terahertz Read More
Researchers at Tufts University’s Silklab have created a new biopolymer sensor that detects bacteria, toxins, and dangerous chemicals in the environment. It can be printed like ink on almost any material, or embedded into films, 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
A group of researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Northwestern University, and other collaborating institutions have developed hybrid bioelectronic robots, which they state are the first to combine soft materials, living muscle, and microelectronics. Read More
Researchers from the Australian Research Council Center of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems (TMOS) have developed a tiny nitrogen dioxide sensor that could help protect the environment from vehicle pollutants that cause health problems and Read More
UCLA has collaborated with a group of researchers from around the world to develop a method of incorporating perovskite into solar cells while also protecting it from the conditions that cause it to deteriorate. The 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
For the first time, scientists from the Israel Institute of Technology (Technion) have been able to use a plant to create a living “bio-solar cell” that runs on photosynthesis. The researchers expect that their method Read More
