Italy hopes to begin constructing the world’s largest suspension bridge connecting Sicily to the Italian mainland this summer amid widespread skepticism that it will ever be built.This post was originally published on this site

Scientists have developed a low-cost, durable, highly sensitive robotic “skin” that can be added to robotic hands like a glove, enabling robots to detect information about their surroundings in a way that’s similar to humans. […]

Infrared thermography (IRT) is an effective inspection technique in manufacturing due to its contactless and noninvasive imaging mode. However, existing IRT techniques can only produce 2D results of subsurface structures. The limitations of finite 2D […]

Green hydrogen is a key part of the energy transition. In the coming years, it’ll be made in wind farms in the German Bight. With recent technology, this process creates waste heat and brine, which […]

A team of researchers at NYU Tandon School of Engineering has developed a novel method to detect hidden GPS tracking devices in vehicles, offering new hope to victims of technology-enabled domestic abuse.This post was originally […]

University of Michigan chemist Charles McCrory and his research group, along with Jesús Velázquez’s lab at the University of California, Davis and Anastassia Alexandrova’s lab at the University of California, Los Angeles, have developed a […]

A research team has developed a novel auditory technology that allows the recognition of human positions using only a single microphone. This technology facilitates sound-based interaction between humans and robots, even in noisy factory environments.This […]

An ultra-compact, low-power 150 GHz radio module enabling high data rates in mobile devices has been developed by researchers from Japan.This post was originally published on this site

Lithium-ion batteries power everything from electric cars to laptops to leaf blowers. Despite their widespread adoption, lithium-ion batteries carry limited amounts of energy, and rare overheating can lead to safety concerns. Consequently, for decades, researchers […]
