VIDEO: Transformative Food Could Reshape the Way Food is Transported
MIT’s Media Lab and Tangable Media Group have teamed up to revolutionize food printing called the transformative appetite. Using food printing technology, pasta is printed in a 2-D shape that is flat until it is put into boiling water.
Processes Enabling Nanomanufacturing
The processes that nanomanufacturing engineers use to fabricate nanomaterials, nanoelectronic devices and other nanotechnology products depend on their nanotechnology approach and the specific nanotechnology product being manufactured. Two major approaches to nanomanufacturing are top down and bottom up. Nanofabrication processes enable the bottom-up approach. Nanoimprinting and self-assembly processes are newer nanofabrication processes under development. Powder and particle fabrication methods enable the top-down approach.
Detecting Hazardous Radioactive Substances from Even Greater Distances
A new method for detecting hazardous radioactive substances from remote distances has been developed by Professor Eunmi Choi and a team of UNIST researchers.
First Monolayer Magnet Discovered
Breakthrough research has identified the first material—chromium triiodide, CrI3--that retains its intrinsic magnetic properties when formed in a single layer.
Autonomous Machines On Track Toward Greater Independence
As in the case of autonomous vehicles becoming more reality than a work of science fiction, so too is the inevitability that machines will become more independent in the future, according to a study published in EPJ B.
Video: Project Wing Just Took a Major Step Toward Successful Drone Delivery
Google‘s Project Wing, a drone and automated aircraft delivery service that is quickly jumping over all the hurdles. This week, the drones successfully passed tests by the FAA and NASA for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).
