By sensing the subtle changes in the finger’s own magnetic field, this new technology could one day make for ultra-sensitive prosthetic hands.
The U.S. Army Research Laboratory has developed a dataset of faces to train facial recognition that works in darkness
There's a new Cybertruck competitor, and an arcade-style TMNT game.
Holograms are one of those sci-fi promises that always seem to remain just out of reach. Now a former MIT Media Lab researcher is crowdfunding a desktop 3D hologram printer that can create images that pop out in 3D, and even appear to move.
Innovative dual-sensor system enables beekeepers to thwart swarming, robbing efforts
Smartphone input can now generate photorealistically lit and shadowed 3D human faces, viewed from any angle
Although certain celebrities are widely considered to be nice-looking, beauty does still ultimately lie in the eye of the beholder. A new AI-based system is able to ascertain which features are found most attractive by individual people, and then create faces combining those qualities.
Boise-based Albertsons Companies started sending robots on to the streets around a few of its stores recently. It’s the latest in a series of ideas to add more tech. to the long-standing grocery chain’s services. Albertsons launched a trial at two of its Safeway stores in Northern California that al...
What goes up must come down, but as any aerodynamics engineer will tell you: getting it up is the hard part. On Earth, where our atmosphere is rather dense compared to many planets, we’re able to send aloft objects that are massive enough to be anchored to the ground through gravity via engineering ...
Deep-sea fish inspires robot that can withstand the crushing pressures of the Mariana trench
What can 5G do for you? How about handling enough data to get inked by a tattoo artist in a remote location? London-based technologist Noel Drew and tattoo artist Wes Thomas made it a reality.
This cute character with the big, Hollywood-movie personality, is here just in time to deal with the loneliness epidemic.
As battery demand soars, researchers are turning to artificial intelligence for more effective and sustainable methods
Genealogy company MyHeritage is putting deepfake technology to a creatively unsettling use with a new feature called Deep Nostalgia. The system animates photographs of long-deceased loved ones, turning old still portraits into uncanny blinking and smiling videos.
Computer vision combined with deep learning can replicate the sense of touch in some social robots
Although we've been hearing about various agricultural robots that are still in development, there's at least one which is already commercially available. It's called the Slopehelper, and it's made mainly for use in vineyards.
Chemotherapy and radiation can cause too much collateral damage to treat some brain tumors. Crumb-sized robots could be the solution.
The U.S. space agency "NASA" announced on Friday that the probe "Perseverance" had succeeded in traveling a few meters on Mars for the first time since it
SpaceX is certainly no stranger to missions that don’t go as planned. While getting the Falcon 9 ready for prime time, the company certainly suffered some rocket losses. Currently, SpaceX has…

This Arduino-compatible watch uses an ESP32 microcontroller and an e-ink display
Researchers at Tel Aviv University have managed to create a kind of cyborg, by integrating the ear of a locust into a robot. The robot was then able to respond to noises that the biological sensor picked up, which could pave the way for more sensitive and efficient sensors.
Tiny wobbles of distant stars may soon help reveal life-sustaining worlds
The construction industry eyes 3D printing to build affordably and rapidly—and for the next few billion
