Necrobotics is a field of engineering that builds robots out of a mix of synthetic materials and animal body parts. It has produced micro-grippers with pneumatically operated legs taken from dead ...

There's no better time to find an excuse to start 3D printing your own products than during Cyber Monday sales, because that's when 3D printers drop to their lowest prices of the year. Bambu is widely ...

If you've not dipped into 3D printing yet, you're missing out. The hobby has never been easier to jump into, thanks to auto-leveling, smarter setup tools, and some seriously capable machines from ...

We’ve often thought that 3D printers make excellent school projects. No matter what a student’s interests are: art, software, electronics, robotics, chemistry, or physics, there’s something for ...

A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR-based systems and sensor ...

Early-stage disease diagnosis relies on the highly sensitive detection of biomarkers. Optical whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microcavity sensors have emerged as a highly promising technology for ...

As robots increasingly enter human spaces, robotics companies will need to think about safety differently than they did when robots were largely siloed from their human counterparts. Sonair thinks its ...

Tactile sensors are widely used in robotics, prosthetics, wearable devices, and healthcare monitoring. These devices detect and convert external stimuli such as pressure and force into electrical ...

A superintendent at a Pennsylvania school is helping to reduce costs for families with students interested in playing a musical instrument. Once a popular choice, the violin can cost hundreds of ...

Many criminals have been caught because they used a typewriter. The most famous case is probably Ted Kaczynski (aka “The Unabomber”), who mailed a typewritten manifesto to the New York Times ...
