Trust between humans and robots is improved when the movement between both is harmonised, researchers have discovered.
Flying robots capable of inspecting and repairing building envelopes, interacting with natural ecosystems, and monitoring climate change and biodiversity are being developed and tested at the DroneHub at Empa's NEST.
This study introduces a fibrous amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide material (IGZO) integrated into sensory face masks, providing real-time respiratory monitoring via a wireless flexible circuit. Enhanced surface area promotes gas diffusion, enabling precise detection of respiratory states. This innovation in wearable health monitoring highlights a promising direction for continuous physiological assessment.
Robots that can sense touch and perceive temperature differences? An unexpected material might just make this a reality. At Empa's Laboratory for High-Performance Ceramics, researchers are developing soft and intelligent sensor materials based on ceramic particles.
Newly published research by Grainger Engineers in Mechanical Science and Engineering describes an unprecedented computational model that captures the intricate muscular architecture of an octopus arm.
A school of bio-robotic fish with advanced sensors will create a versatile network capable of maneuvers and station-keeping beyond current vehicles both in shallow coastal areas and in deep ocean environments.
Layered assembly of 2D materials such as graphene have potential roles in the development of new electronic devices. Manufacturing these materials at a large scale while making them atomically clean is a major challenge. In this study, researchers used a special robotic system to assemble graphene heterostructures into large sheets with atomically clean interfaces.
Superweeds that have developed resistance to common herbicides is jeopardizing weed management in agriculture. Robots for mechanical weeding is an emerging technology that could potentially provide a solution. A new study from the University of Illinois estimates farmer adoption of weeding robots.
Dr. Avimanyu Sahoo, a researcher at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), has been awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) award totaling $299,969 to characterize the vulnerability of the learning-based intelligent cyber-physical systems (CPS) and defend them. The CPS represents a symbiotic integration of physical systems, sensors, actuators and learning-based intelligent controllers through communication networks such as smart grids, robotic swarms and autonomous vehicles.
Hackensack University Medical Center now offering robotically assisted knee replacement surgery with the TMINI Miniature Robotic System.
Chulalongkorn University extends its congratulations to Associate Professor Dr. Ronnapee Chaichaowarat, a lecturer from the International Engineering Program at the Faculty of Engineering, for reaching the final round of the 2024 Young Technologist Award, organized by the Foundation for the Promotion of Science and Technology under the Patronage of His Majesty the King.
Cheers of excitement, high-fives all around, and wide, beaming smiles 鈥� they鈥檙e all the signs of a team success. But this is not a sporting field 鈥� this is the camaraderie found among the next generation of teachers learning the very latest, world-class robotics programs so they can excite and inspire students about STEM.
University of Washington researchers created MobiPrint, a mobile 3D printer that can automatically measure a room and print objects onto the floor. The team鈥檚 graphic interface lets users design objects in a space that the robot has mapped out. The prototype, which the team built on a modified consumer vacuum robot, can add a range of objects to rooms.
Teleoperated robots for gathering moon dust are a step closer, according to new research by scientists at the University of Bristol.
Scientists from Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University for the first time obtained cobalt complexes-based self-oscillating gels. Such gels can occasionally change their geometric parameters, thanks to that they can be used for creation of chemomechanical materials, that transform chemical energy into the energy of mechanical oscillations. The emergence of propagating chemical waves inside such gels enables to use material for creation of devices, processing information using cooperation of chemical waves. Results of the research are published in magazine Gels.
A study introduces an AI-powered attention-based model for the rapid detection of structural cracks in cross-sea bridges, significantly improving the accuracy and efficiency of maintenance operations. This development offers a fresh approach for ensuring the safety and service life of critical infrastructure.
Using mechanisms inspired by nature to create new technological innovations is a signature of one Virginia Tech research team. The group led by Associate Professor Michael Bartlett has created an octopus-inspired adhesive, inspired by the shape of octopus suckers, that can quickly grab and controllably release challenging underwater objects.
