While the 3D bioprinting of tissue and organs does hold great promise in the field of medicine, the printed materials typically have quite a short shelf life. An experimental new bio-ink, however, allows bioprinted tissue to be stored in a frozen state… Continue reading New bio-ink may allow 3D-printed organs to be frozen for storage
Food additives known as emulsifiers are widely used to combine two liquids which ordinarily don’t mix, such as oil and water. And while most emulsifiers are made from dairy proteins or egg yolks, a new one uses spent brewer’s grain which might otherwis… Continue reading Beer-brewing waste used in eco-friendly, nutritious food emulsifier
For some time now, it has been known that modern birds are direct descendants of the dinosaurs. Now a fresh analysis of a fossilized dinosaur embryo has brought that prehistoric relationship into a new and particularly sharp focus.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading Fossilized embryo underscores the link between dinosaurs and birds
If you hear gunshots in an urban setting, it’s important to get the police to their source as quickly as possible. A new system is being developed to help, by combining autonomous drones with an existing shot-locating technology.Continue ReadingCategor… Continue reading New policing system will send drones to the source of gunshots
For some time now, Mitsubishi has been using its Emirai concept cars to showcase emerging automotive technologies. The latest one, the Emirai xS Drive, monitors drivers and passengers while also using its headlights to highlight potential road hazards…. Continue reading Mitsubishi Emirai xS Drive system watches drivers – and the road
California-based manufacturer Rungu is already known for its crazy dual-front-wheeled electric fatbikes. Well, the latest versions of the go-anywhere Dualies now feature not only a longer battery range, but also better ground clearance.Continue Reading… Continue reading Rungu Dualie three-wheeled e-fatbike gets a battery boost for 2022
As 3D-printed electrical circuits become more widely produced, the problem of electronic waste could correspondingly get worse. That’s why Swiss scientists have developed a new natural-source “e-ink” that biodegrades once discarded.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Biodegradable e-ink makes for eco-friendlier 3D-printed electronics
When it comes to robotic hands, there are ones that can grasp tough items firmly, and ones that can grasp delicate items lightly. The experimental new gecko-inspired farmHand, however, is capable of doing both.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, Techno… Continue reading Gecko-inspired farmHand combines grasping strength with a light touch
Although some people are starting to venture back into air travel, the more that they can continue physical distancing, the better. A new robotic in-airport food delivery service has been introduced in order to help them do so.Continue ReadingCategory:… Continue reading Autonomous robots are now delivering food in a US airport
The mosquitofish is a harmful invasive species in much of the world, outcompeting and overwhelming native fish and other aquatic life. Scientists are now working on a solution to the problem, in the form of a robotic bass.Continue ReadingCategory: Scie… Continue reading Robo-bass used to protect native tadpoles from invasive mosquitofish
