Researchers from the Brown University School of Engineering have developed a new imaging system that can see and track moving objects in partially opaque environments like dense fog or muddy water.This post was originally published […]

What if the energy powering your home or office could be generated, stored and used all in the same place? This is the hope for the next generation of buildings, powered by renewable sources with […]

Researchers have demonstrated a technique that uses powdered eggshells to produce high-quality magnesium alloys, which have a wide variety of automotive, aerospace and biomedical applications. The eggshells are used as a low-cost, environmentally sustainable alternative […]

From our smartphones to advanced industrial systems, cameras have become an integral part of modern life. Conventional cameras capture scenes as a sequence of frames at fixed time intervals. In contrast, event cameras detect changes […]

University of Birmingham scientists have discovered a new materials and processing approach that could help engineers develop stronger, more reliable materials for two different technologies: future fusion reactors and next-generation aerospace components.This post was originally […]

Garbage left outside starts smelling unpleasant very quickly, especially in warm, humid climates that accelerate food decay. In ACS’ Environmental Science & Technology, researchers report a solar-powered lid insert that fits onto standard wheeled trash […]

A research team led by Nae-Eung Lee, a professor at the School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), has developed a material that can stretch like rubber while generating electricity. Using […]

When designing new computer chips, engineers need to make various decisions about how to connect their underlying components while efficiently using limited space. Planning these connections involves combinatorial optimization, or, in other words, a search […]

An international team of engineers has adapted a medical imaging technique to give 3D-printed materials the ability to sense where they are being damaged and track how that damage develops in real time.This post was […]
