  • AI tool turns drone images into real-time disaster maps for emergency responders

    CLARKE relies on artificial intelligence (AI) and drone imagery to assess damage to buildings, roads and other infrastructure in mere minutes.

  • Safer nonstick coating that reduces reliance on ‘forever chemicals’

    The new material repels water and grease as well as traditional nonstick coatings, but with significantly lower amounts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which is a family of chemicals that have sparked environmental and health concerns.

  • Solar drone soars for 3 days

    The drone completed 73 hours of live testing, culminating in the aircraft meeting energy balance parameters for extended flight operations.

  • Can phase-change materials supplant compressor cooling technologies?

    Learn how phase-change materials are a promising option to complement or even replace traditional compressor-based cooling in particular applications.

  • Slingshot Aerospace debuts AI agent for spacecraft operations training

    The new simulation tool imitates satellite actions in training and simulation environments and is designed to learn and replicate tactics like space warfare maneuvers.

  • Seaweed powder cuts concrete’s carbon footprint without impacting its strength

    To develop this new type of concrete, the team mixed dried, powdered seaweed with cement and reported that the seaweed-fortified cement has 21% lower global warming potential while retaining its strength.

  • Battery bricks bring on the heat

    Electrically conductive firebricks store and deliver extreme heat using renewable electricity supplied to a thermal battery.

  • All in! arburgSOLUTIONworld: Everything to deliver customer success

    Visitors to the K 2025 trade fair will glean valuable information from ARBURG on topics such as sustainability, digitalization and automation, and discuss issues facing plastics processors.

  • Magnetic micro-robot promises to dissolve kidney stones with less discomfort

    The robot strip is a 1 mm x 1 mm x 12 mm filament composed of a hydrogel and elastomer blend that is loaded with urease, which is an enzyme that can break down kidney stones, and that features a small magnet at one end.

  • Toothpaste with human hair protein promises to repair enamel and prevent decay

    According to the toothpaste's developers, keratin, a protein found in hair, skin and wool, can reportedly restore enamel and prevent early tooth decay.

  • How to reduce the hidden environmental costs of supply chains

    The infrastructure that supports global supply chains — ports, highways, railways, data servers — has expanded dramatically, increasing the distance goods travel from production to consumption to disposal. These “supply chain miles” are a major contributor to ecological degradation.

  • Bio-based hydraulic fluids: Are they the future?

    Sensible or not, the road to sustainable fluid power transmission is hindered by several factors.

  • Amazon’s new robot has a sense of touch, but it’s not here to replace humans

    The inevitable question that always comes up is: will robots like this replace human workers? In fact, Vulcan is a good example of how robotics are being designed to work with people, not against them.

  • High-tech drones are changing warfare – terrorists may soon follow the same playbook

    The evolution in drone use as part of the conflict in Ukraine reveals the potential to amplify the threat. During the past two years, improvements in accessibility, affordability, range and speed have transformed commercial drones into precision strike platforms capable of inflicting mass casualties at low cost.
