A research team led by Professor Jo Woon Chong of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), in collaboration with researchers from KAIST and Texas Tech University in the United ...
Tech Xplore / Trusting me, trusting you: How researchers are redesigning relationships between humans and intelligent machines
From the Ferranti Mark I to empathetic AI, Manchester researchers are exploring how intelligent machines can understand human behavior, respond to social cues and earn trust in our workplaces, hospitals and homes.
Tech Xplore / From molecules to networks, siibra integrates brain data into a unified atlas
In the current issue of the journal Nature Methods, siibra is introduced as a software suite that integrates data from different multimodal sources into a comprehensive atlas of the human brain and makes the data easily accessible—for ...
Tech Xplore / Dutch students unveil 'world-first' solar-powered ambulance
A Dutch student team on Tuesday unveiled what it believes to be the world's first solar-powered ambulance, which it hopes can bring much-needed medical care to the remotest parts of the globe.
Tech Xplore / Fine-tuned perovskites make blue LEDs more vibrant
Over the past decade, perovskite LEDs have become increasingly vibrant and affordable to produce. With careful tweaks to their chemical composition, these crystal-based light emitters can be tuned across the visible spectrum—matching ...
Tech Xplore / Programmable metasurface turns keyboard commands into dynamic holograms in milliseconds
Metasurfaces are ultrathin optical components engineered with arrays of nanoscale structures that can control light in ways that are difficult for conventional optics. Unlike traditional optical components, which typically ...
Tech Xplore / Shade-resistant solar cells keep 97% efficiency after 2,000‑hour stress test
It is common for solar panels to be shaded by trees, clouds, birds or buildings. For thin-film solar technologies, however, such shading can cause shaded areas to develop reverse-bias stress (negative voltage), which can ...
Tech Xplore / New electronic skin brings self-healing sensors to underwater robots and divers
Underwater environments are among the harshest operating conditions for electronic devices. Divers and underwater robots depend on sensors to navigate, communicate and handle objects, but conventional sensors are fragile, ...
Tech Xplore / Mechanical engineers develop buttons that rise with light
No wires. No actuators. Shine light on the metal surface, and it rises like a button. KAIST researchers have developed a metal structure that changes shape using light, without any light-absorbing coating. This technology ...
Tech Xplore / Hybrid-electric aircraft clears 30,000 feet for first time in test flights
An aircraft powered by a megawatt-class hybrid-electric engine developed in collaboration with NASA and built by GE Aerospace, demonstrated flight of an innovation that can inform new generations of fuel-saving aircraft power ...
Tech Xplore / Weak AI regulation may be worse than none at all, researchers say
A new modeling study finds that weak AI regulation may be worse than no regulation at all when it comes to the safety of AI products and services.
Tech Xplore / 'Ouroboros' AI system changes what edge devices see video in real time
A research team led by Kyunghan Lee, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Seoul National University College of Engineering, has developed an artificial intelligence system, "Ouroboros," ...
