A robotic hand. Credit: Pixaobay Scientists at the California's University San Diego have developed a novel approach, inspired by human dexterity, to enable a robotic hand to rotate objects solely through touch, eliminating the need for visual input. The team equipped a four-fingered robotic hand with 16 touch sensors on its palm and fingers. These...
Credit: Pixaobay Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery by identifying the genetic cause of virgin birth in an unexpected species, the fruit fly ''Drosophila melanogaster''. Once this ability is activated in a female fruit fly, it can be inherited by successive generations. In this process, females can reproduce either sexually with the presence of males...
In the last few years, smartphones have made big progress in technology and what they can do. They are not only important for communication and staying organized but are also becoming a popular choice for playing games. Because of better hardware and software, smartphones can now offer gaming experiences that are as good as...
We all have observed the rapid growth in China in the most important sector in the last years. Currently, China´s government pointed out the need for a 31st point Plan. Many businesses in China don't advocate for democracy, but they do ask for more transparency. As part of a 31-point plan, there are some promises...

Like copper and iron, metals possess free-flowing electrons that enable them to conduct electricity, while insulators, such as glass and rubber, tightly bind their electrons, making them non-conductive. The intriguing aspect of insulators is that they can be...

Research team leader Joanne Cole, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Informatics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, stated that they have identified genes associated with sensory pathways, including taste, smell, and texture, which may also impact the brain's reward response. However, these genes could potentially be utilized...
South Africa's power crisis will persist until 2025, with blackouts phasing out in 5 years. South Africa is facing a severe electricity crisis with increasing enforced power cuts, leaving people without electricity for up to 10 hours a day. The root cause is the frequent breakdowns in the country's aging coal power plants, which...
