A new generation of robotics: Researchers design self-healing robotic hands that don’t require human intervention
Scientists are now developing robots that can feel pain and sense damage. Better yet, these robots will not only be able to sense that they’ve been damaged, but they will also be able to repair the damage themselves without human intervention. These self-healing robots have soft, robotic hands made through 3D printing using a jelly-like plastic […]

Another attempt at the super soldier? Researchers develop artificial muscles that can lift 1,000 times their own weight
Three different – and independent – groups of researchers have designed extremely powerful artificial muscles. They claim that the muscles can lift 1,000 times their own weight. The synthetic muscles are designed around either coiled or coiling fibers that can, much like natural muscles, stretch and contract. These artificial muscles could be used for various […]

Researchers are working on turning plastic into fuel that could power homes
With nearly 80 percent of the world’s plastic waste ending up on landfills, all this plastic pollution needs to be reused quickly, or it may clog up the world’s oceans — potentially killing millions of animals, and seep into the air and the soil, threatening the health of groundwater and food crops. Researchers are proposing […]

Scientists use modified 3D printer to make LIQUID MAGNETS: Magnetic device could be used to make “flexible liquid robots”
Scientists from the Department of Energy‘s Office of Science, working at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, have created the first ever liquid magnet. This substance retains its magnetism even when it changes its shape. According to the researchers, this makes the material attractive for the creation of flexible liquid robots that can change their shape at will […]

DGIST researchers unveil AI radar system that can detect miniature drones from 3 km away
On March 24, 2014, a North Korean drone was spotted in the city of Paju, just south of the Korean Demilitarized Zone that cuts the Korean peninsula in half. Several weeks later, another drone from the north crashed in the border island of Baengnyeong in the Yellow Sea. In response to these incidents and the […]

Scientists develop artificial nervous system that can soon give robots a sense of touch
Scientists from the National University of Singapore have developed “an ultra responsive and robust artificial nervous system” that may be used by robots and prosthetic devices to give them a sense of touch. This artificial nervous system is called the Asynchronous Coded Electronic Skin (ACES). According to tests done by the NUS team, the ACES system has […]

Plant-based power: Researchers monitor remote rainforests by plugging in camera traps to PLANTS
Conservationists working at the London Zoo are busy cultivating Pete, a maidenhair fern that will hopefully be able to take photos that can help scientists monitor remote areas of rainforests all over the world. The current trial is hoping to develop a way to use plants that can generate enough electricity to power equipment used by conservationists […]

Swiss fashion company creates 100% compostable clothes
Freitag, a fashion company based in Zurich, Switzerland, is creating clothes that are 100 percent compostable – down to the last thread. After two to five months of use, they will begin decomposing, leaving nothing behind, contributing to the fight against clothing waste. Founded by brothers Markus Freitag and Daniel Freitag in 1993, Freitag gained […]

Researchers use AI to simulate the universe: The simulation works, but it’s “a great mystery” that’s yet to be understood
Researchers have announced that, for the first time in human history, artificial intelligence (AI) has been able to create a simulation of the universe in a way that seems to work like the actual thing. However, the researchers aren’t entirely sure how it works. In their study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of […]

NASA considering the use of “starshade” tech to look for alien planets
NASA has announced its plans to use “starshade” technology on exoplanet-hunting missions. Recent research from the space agency suggests that while the plans may be technologically daunting, it’s not impossible and well within NASA’s reach. Astronomers all over the world have been detecting exoplanets for over a decade now. However, their work has been done only […]
