In the visions of researchers at the University of Oulu, light does far more than illuminate. It provides, among others, a new way to transmit data securely and efficiently, while also offering a sustainable energy […]

Wearable electronics could be more wearable, according to a research team at Penn State. The researchers have developed a scalable, versatile approach to designing and fabricating wireless, internet-enabled electronic systems that can better adapt to […]

X-ray imaging is useful for seeing inside objects without causing damage, but until now it was not practical for use underwater. Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have developed the first X-ray imaging system that clearly […]

Northwestern University engineers have developed the first haptic device that achieves “human resolution,” meaning it accurately matches the sensing abilities of the human fingertip.This article was originally published on this website.

Virtual keyboards are a frequent source of frustration for augmented reality (AR) users. The virtual surfaces are slow and error prone, and raising an arm to type on them can cause muscle strain known as […]

Two UBC Okanagan engineering students are transforming classroom research into a practical tool for communities facing increasing wildfire risk.This article was originally published on this website.

Traditional deployable systems—relying on pneumatic pumps, electric motors, magnets, or manual assembly—often require bulky power systems or multiple steps. We began exploring whether a simpler, non-electronic alternative was possible using only geometric and material intelligence.This […]
