If humanoid robots are ever going to fully integrate in society, they’re going to need to get good at reading our emotional states and responding appropriately. A new wearable from researchers in Korea could help them do just that.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading Wearable face sensors add to the evolution of tech that “gets” us
A nanoporous material that holds hydrogen at twice the density of cryogenic liquid H2 could address the challenges of large-scale liquid and gas storage that have held this clean fuel back.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Hydrogen, Hydrog… Continue reading Ultra-high density hydrogen storage holds twice as much as liquid H2
One of the most promising, emerging solar cell technologies has received a major efficiency boost. Engineers at UNIST in South Korea have created quantum dot solar cells with a world record efficiency of 18.1%.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceT… Continue reading Quantum dot solar cells break efficiency record, silicon in its sights
Researchers have made a breakthrough in cancer treatment by harnessing the disease-destroying abilities of the body’s natural killer cells. Their novel nanodrones selectively target a tumor, enabling the killer cells to do what they do best: Suppress c… Continue reading Nanodrones harness natural-born killers to target and destroy cancer
Senescent cells have been the number-one target for scientists seeking the elusive magic bullet in anti-aging therapy. And with good reason: as we age, these old, dysfunctional, non-dividing cells become increasingly harder for the immune system to dis… Continue reading Selective cell ‘hit jobs’ aim to reverse age-related conditions
Perovskite is emerging as a promising material for solar cells, but it has some durability problems. Now, engineers have developed a new electrode that could make them more stable, using a protective layer of “graphene armor.”Continue ReadingCategory: … Continue reading “Graphene armor” protects perovskite solar cells from damage
