A robotic ocean float was lost under the Antarctic ice for eight months, but it miraculously reappeared, bearing some ...

To build the experimental stations of the future, scientists at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility at DOE's ...

Researchers in the the labs of Ron Alterovitz, a Lawrence Grossberg Distinguished Professor in the Department of Computer Science, and Jim Cahoon, a professor and chair of the Department of Chemistry, ...

Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables.

In a joint advance from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan, engineers have designed the smallest fully programmable autonomous robots ever built – ...

Autonomous free-flying robots aboard the International Space Station (ISS) frequently lose their bearings. Without gravity to distinguish up from down, even precision sensors suffer from accumulating ...

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and University of Michigan have created the world’s smallest fully programmable ...

New footage shows an expressionless iRonCub MK3 robot taking off using four thrusters — two where its arms should be and two in a jetpack on its back. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

In a lab experiment that sounds closer to science fiction than engineering, researchers have unveiled what they describe as ...
