Embedded sensors may provide robots with sensory capabilities
Not satisfied with the nature-inspired soft robots they’ve already created, a Harvard University (Harvard) research team is planning to install embedded sensors that will let their creations sense movement, pressure, touch, and temperature like living organisms do. In fact, reported an AlphaGalileo article, they based the idea upon the sensory capabilities of the human body. Previous Harvard-designed robots can […]

New flexible lithium ion battery flexes like a spine; may revolutionize wearable electronics
With the emergence of flexible — as in bendable — consumer electronic devices like smartphones and smartwatches, the demand has increased for similarly flexible high-performance batteries. This was the main motivation behind a study conducted by researchers from Columbia University, who now claim that they have successfully created a remarkably flexible, high energy density battery […]
