For many years, the idea of controlling machines with the mind was confined to science fiction. Now, it is starting to become a reality. Researchers and governments are investing heavily in technology that enables a direct connection between the human brain and electronic systems. Recent clinical trials show rapid progress, and experts suggest that real-world […]

A detailed examination of Bennu’s rocks uncovered a surprising hint that altered the narrative. One of NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission’s most surprising discoveries was Bennu’s actual surface. Contrary to earlier Earth-based predictions of many smooth regions, the asteroid revealed itself as a rugged, uneven terrain strewn with massive boulders. “When OSIRIS-REx arrived at Bennu in 2018,

Scientists at Cranfield University have developed WANDER-bot, an affordable, 3D-printed robot that runs on wind power. WANDER-bot, designed for harsh, windy environments—from deserts to polar or extraterrestrial terrains—runs without a battery, enabling longer uninterrupted operation. Movement typically consumes about 20% of a robot’s battery, so harnessing natural energy makes WANDER-bot an efficient option for extended

Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have created an experimental chewing gum that can cut viral levels in saliva by over 95%, targeting viruses like influenza, herpes, and SARS-CoV-2. Plant-Based Molecular Decoys That Trap Viruses in the Mouth The gum includes recombinant proteins—such as plant-based ACE2 and FRIL from lablab beans—that attach to viruses in

RMIT University engineers in Australia created a remote-controlled minibot that cleans oil spills with a sea urchin-inspired filter. Oil spills are a global threat, damaging ecosystems, endangering wildlife, and costing billions to clean up. To address the global issue, the team built the “Electronic Dolphin” minibot to safely and precisely remove oil from water. The

This isn’t teleoperation. Chinese researchers have tested a faster, more efficient method for training robots in tennis, showing a major leap in AI and machine learning. What does it take to be a capable athlete? Extremely precise perception, coupled with strong coordination, sharp anticipation, quick reflexes, and mastery of sport-specific techniques. That last part has

An unusual graduate captured attention at a Chinese high school last week—a humanoid robot named Shuang Shuang. The graduation ceremony for the 25th class of Shuangshi High School, held in early July in Fujian province, symbolized another step toward integrating robotics into the country’s public and cultural life.

Acne vulgaris is a widespread skin disorder driven by several factors, including the proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes and persistent inflammation. Managing it remains challenging, as standard treatments—such as topical creams, oral medications, and laser procedures—often face issues like inadequate drug penetration, low patient compliance, and inconsistent outcomes. Physicians frequently advise combining water-soluble (hydrophilic) and fat-soluble

A Japanese tech startup has created a device that can transmit a person’s full-body movements and physical force. H2L’s Capsule Interface enables immersive shared experiences between humans, robots, and avatars, expanding remote interaction possibilities. Resembling a massage chair, the system turns the user’s body into a control interface that can operate a humanoid robot. The
