It would be great if forensics teams could easily lift fingerprints off of bullet casings left at crime scenes, but unfortunately doing so is often quite difficult. A new technique developed at the University of Nottingham could change that.Continue Re… Continue reading New technique excels at lifting fingerprints from shell casings
At CES 2018, Honda debuted a prototype off-road rover designed to help out at construction sites, in agriculture, in search and rescue operations, and more. By the end of the year, the Autonomous Work Vehicle had been put through its paces in Californi… Continue reading Honda tests 2nd-gen Autonomous Work Vehicle prototype in New Mexico
