The Hadrian X can grip construction blocks weighing up to 99 pounds (45 kg)FBRA robotic truck with a 105-ft (32-m) telescopic boom arm has recently traveled from Australia to Florida. Now, this construction robot is set to begin constructing up to 10 houses, aiming to establish itself as the preferred choice for building entire...
A new "smart soil" infused with hydrogel allows crops to grow larger with less water. Credit: PixabayWatering and fertilizing crops to meet global food demands is a significant challenge in agriculture. Scientists at the University of Texas at Austin have now developed a “smart soil” that enhances plant hydration and provides a controlled nutrient...
This new discovery blurs the line between being asleep and awake . Credit: PixabayScientists have made a groundbreaking discovery: a small region of our brain shuts down briefly to take microsecond-long naps while we're awake. Interestingly, these same areas become active during sleep. These findings could provide crucial insights into neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases associated...
