Robots can help find objects you’ve lost, thanks to new ‘artificial memory’. Engineers at the University of Waterloo have discovered a new way to program robots to help people with…
Fix the slide, adjust, start with the lowest magnification and then focus through the specimen: This routine is particularly familiar to biology students from microscopy classes. Now, the process also…
… that can traverse difficult landscapes. Centipedes are known for their wiggly walk. With tens to hundreds of legs, they can traverse any terrain without stopping. “When you see a…
Joint expertise from industry and research: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a groundbreaking imaging technique that generates high-resolution cross-sectional images of transparent and semitransparent media. It is used both in…
Breakthroughs in ancient genome reconstruction and biotechnology are now revealing the rich molecular secrets of Paleolithic microorganisms. In a new study published in Science, a transdisciplinary team of researchers led…
Reversible logic gates designed for large scale integer factorization. Large numbers can only be factorized with a great deal of computational effort. Physicists at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, led…
