Biosensor technology promises to bring mind control one step closer
To create these dry wearable sensors and overcome issues of corrosion, durability and skin contact resistance, researchers used graphene and combined it with silicon.
Mass spectrometer to fly for NASA
When NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft launches in 2024, the mission will bring a new mass spectrometer to the Jovian system to determine if the moon can support life.
Triage drone promises to improve casualty rates on the battlefield
Under the ATRACT (A Trustworthy Robotic Autonomous system to support Casualty Triage) project, researchers are developing a flying drone that assists with and expedites triage on the battlefield, aiding frontline medics in decision-making in the moments following trauma.
Mitsubishi Electric Trane HVAC US introduces its intelli-HEAT Dual Fuel System
The intelli-HEAT Dual Fuel System is compatible with any thermostatically controlled furnace and works with both single-zone and multi-zone systems.
Purdue's "talking" concrete communicates real-time concrete conditions
The Purdue team has determined that adding sensors to concrete pours could effectively communicate the condition of the concrete, in real time, to engineers.
New 1/2 NPT hollow cone liquid nozzle for cooling and washing
These liquid atomizing spray nozzles provide a hollow cone spray pattern for pressurized liquids.
Seco Tools 3D manufacturing creates new opportunities
The advantages include shorter lead times, improved tool life and increased sustainability.
New Mixed Case Palletizer introduced by Smart Robotics
According to the company, the system is designed to improve warehouse delivery speed by removing one of the biggest obstacles: manual palletizing of mixed products or stock-keeping units (SKUs).
Smarter wastewater management with AI
The utility of artificial intelligence (AI) in automating and monitoring waste catchments is being trialed by one of the largest U.K. water companies.
Soft robot easily shifts from land to sea
Researchers constructed a bistable actuator composed of 3D-printed soft rubber featuring shape-memory alloy springs that respond to electrical currents through contracting, thereby causing the actuator to bend.
A sensor for predicting the freshness of foods
The 2 mm in length by 10 mm wide sensor is reportedly small enough to be incorporated into food packaging like plastic wrap.
These robots automate weeding
The new line features the Titan and the Vulcan robots, both with hundreds of tiny blades that are directed by AI to cut around crops.
Soft photonic crystal robot detects methanol
The design of the soft robot, according to its developers is unlike similar robots, moving in response to its surroundings rather than controlled via computing.
AI-based robot to reassemble relics from Pompeii
The RePAIR tech uses AI to solve puzzles, examining the dispersed pieces of a Roman vase, for instance, and determining how they fit together while a set of robotic arms physically pieces the relic together.
Team creates paper airplane-making robot
The researchers have automated the trial-and-error process of finding the appropriate design for paper airplanes, accomplishing the goal of both increasing flight time and distance.
Video: Nanosensor fingers mercury levels in water
A robotic hand equipped with a triboelectric nanosensor quickly gauges water quality.
Report: The global state of smart manufacturing
A growing number of manufacturers have deployed or plan to use smart manufacturing technology over the next one to two years.
Earthworm-inspired robot developed for underground exploration, search and rescue
To mimic the locomotion of earthworms, the IIT team constructed a peristaltic soft actuator (PSA) that elongates when air is pumped into it and that compresses when air is removed.
