  • Aerial robots use AI to monitor, map wildfire smoke

    The team used a swarm of AI-guided aerial robots to capture several angles of the smoke plumes to build 3D reconstructions and analyze flow patterns.

  • Lab-grown oils promise deforestation-free cosmetics and food

    This solution is expected to address the environmental and ethical concerns associated with the manufacture of palm, coconut and other botanicals, including deforestation, habitat loss, fertilizer and water use, and labor abuses.

  • Ultrasonic device removes salt from sea sand to boost building applications

    The team has created an ultrasonic desalination device that enables more effective removal of salt from sea sand.

  • New wearable patch performs diagnostics using sweat, not blood

    The smart patch can precisely observe internal changes through sweat when attached to the body where it can simultaneously and in real-time analyze multiple metabolites.

  • "Bone-gun" can generate bone grafts directly onto fractures in animals

    The so-called bone gun has already been trialed in rabbits, quickly creating complex bone implants without having to prefabricate in advance.

  • Nanoparticles offer quick virus detection in food and water supplies

    According to the researchers, the approaches test for bacteria and viruses in food and water, thereby reducing the wait for results from days to hours, offering real-time results in the field.

  • US scientists turn frozen tofu into inspiration for no-melt ‘jelly ice’

    To develop the jelly ice, the team took inspiration from frozen tofu, which retained water internally but released it upon thawing.

  • WEAV3D launches FLEXSPEC structural thermoforming panel

    Thermoformable sheets are designed to achieve bending stiffness equivalence with a wide range of steel and aluminum sheet metal gauges while increasing load capacity and weight.

  • Glide-Line unveils custom-engineered Zero Contact Zoned Conveyor for heavy-duty applications

    The system eliminates product collision entirely while significantly improving efficiency and reducing wear and tear on the conveyor.

  • Here’s how to bring additive manufacturing tooling in-house

    Using additive manufacturing for tool and jig development has the potential to save both time and money, without restricting new product designs.

  • AI-triggered airbag system forms protective bubble in plane crashes

    The system, developed under the title Project REBIRTH, relies on external airbags that inflate, thus enveloping the aircraft and reducing impact during abrupt landings.

  • Geothermal fracking is heating up in 2025

    Advances in geothermal fracking technology could help unlock roughly 60 GW of steady, carbon-free capacity by mid-century.

  • Fueling fusion at room temperature

    The effect of electrochemical loading on nuclear fusion reaction rates at room temperature was explored.

  • IML medical exhibit demonstrates the added value of labeled medical technology products

    Ready-to-use centrifuge tubes with functional labels made of PP will be produced at the event with a system concept that can be transferred to many different medical technology products.

  • Makers of new robotic applications should have thoughtful conversations with gear manufacturers

    Between advanced industrial robots, collaborative systems that bridge the gap between man and machine, and advanced robot designs including humanoids that fully integrate into society, it is hard to fathom the ways in which new robotics solutions will transform everyday life.

  • Variable Dispense Pump launched by Diener Precision Pumps for mission-critical tasks

    The Exacta Variable Dispense Pump provides accurate, repeatable dosing with the flexibility of varying the dispensed volume with a simple command.

  • COMAU highlights the potential of AI to promote the development of the industrial system at ETFA 2025

    Comau presented its vision on the strategic use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the manufacturing sector at the recent event.
