Jonathan Schwinge very well might be one of the most watched ultra-luxury designers on our planet. His portfolio spans a range of creativity from architecture to furniture design to … well, hydrofoiling pyramid-shaped superyachts.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading The Tetrahedron hydrofoiling superyacht that no one will build
The fastest any human has ever run on record was Usain Bolt. He was clocked at a ridiculously quick 27.79 mph (44.72 km/h) when he ran a 9.58-second 100-meter dash. Two-legged robots can run even faster, and it looks really weird.Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading Watch: Flat out fast two-legged robot designed like a Velociraptor
At its core, this system developed at Yamagata University in Japan uses a “simple” cross-spherical gear paired with a monopole gear to control pitch, roll, and yaw. Essentially, the same full range of movement you’d see in a rotator cuff (the shoulder)… Continue reading Watch: Incredibly versatile active ball-joint gear is mind-bending
Researchers at the University of Michigan have come up with a clever way of turning darkness into night vision with a new OLED approach thinner than paper – but maybe not as sleek looking as Spec-Ops AN/PSQ-20 Enhanced Night Vision Goggles.Continue Rea… Continue reading New OLED night-vision film thinner than paper
Intake, compression, power, then exhaust. Every 4-stroke engine ever made – about 80% of all engines currently in existence – function on this principle – even rotary engines. But now, Porsche has filed a patent to make a 6-stroke engine.Continue Readi… Continue reading Porsche’s 6-stroke engine doubles up on power and compression
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, or GPGP for short, isn’t exactly what you might have heard. It’s not a floating garbage land-mass twice the size of Texas that you can settle, even though it kind of already has its own currency (called Debris), a flag,… Continue reading The Great Pacific Garbage Patch has a $7.5-billion price tag
If you’re not really into salt-water tanks or don’t spend a lot of time in coral reefs, there’s still a high probability you may have heard of the bluestreak cleaner wrasse fish. Likely because last year it passed the “mirror test”, showing that it can… Continue reading Self-aware fish flexes in mirror before fighting
China leads the world in terms of renewable energy resources like solar power. And not just by a small margin either, making over twice as much solar power as the next highest country, the USA. Where do you store any excess solar energy for use when th… Continue reading New grid battery packs record energy density into a shipping container
The first statistically significant results are in: not only can Large Language Model (LLM) AIs generate new expert-level scientific research ideas, but their ideas are more original and exciting than the best of ours – as judged by human experts.Conti… Continue reading AIs generate more novel and exciting research ideas than human experts
