“Robots aren’t generally meant to get confused, but modeling confusion might help make them more useful workmates. As part of an effort to explore ways for humans and robots to work together more naturally and effectively, a team of …

“Many measurement techniques, such as spectroscopy, benefit from the ability to split a single beam of light into two in order to measure changes in one of them. The crucial device that separates the beam is the beam-splitter. These have …

“New research from North Carolina State University has found that combining digital and analog components in nonlinear, chaos-based integrated circuits can improve their computational power by enabling processing of a larger number of inputs. This “best of both worlds” approach …

“Using silicon and carbon materials, researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed a tactile sensor that can act as skin for robots, which can absorb shock and distinguish various forms of touch. Current robotic …

“Mobile base stations for 5G solutions will consist of hundreds of small antennas. Benefits include faster transmission, improved energy efficiency, better security and wider coverage. Researchers at Aalborg University are at the forefront of developing the new antenna technology. As …

“At 11:50 A.M. on April 21 MIT Rocket Team successfully fired a rocket motor printed from plastic! We think this is the first time anyone has done so. Matt V, Kelly M, and Charlie G. have spent the …

“The list of materials that can be produced by 3-D printing has grown to include not just plastics but also metal, glass, and even food. Now, MIT researchers are expanding the list further, with the design of a system that …

“For a robot to be of any real help around the home, it will need to be able to tell the difference between a coffee table and a child’s crib—a simple task that most robots can’t do …
