Un equipo de ingenieros biomédicos y robóticos afiliados a múltiples instituciones de toda China ha desarrollado un tipo de robot pequeño y blando que puede nadar en el agua y realizar pruebas de detección de contaminantes.En su artículo publicado en la revista Science Advances, el equipo señala que el robot puede funcionar y controlarse mediante ondas de radio.

With dedicated staff and a little bit of luck, decades of data and biological samples from the monkeys of Cayo Santiago narrowly escaped destruction.

GLP-1 class medications reduce cardiovascular risk and treat diabetes. But they also allow people to lose an average of 10-20 percent of their body weight in the first year. What does that mean for the overweight or obese?

As the use of electric and hybrid vehicles increases in many countries worldwide, the development of safe and better-performing battery technologies becomes increasingly crucial. Most notably, engineers have been trying to increase the safety and energy capacity of batteries while also ensuring their scalability and slowing down their degradation over time.

According to research published in Small, a team led by Prof. Hu Linhua from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Science (CAS) found that the electrochemical properties of NH4V4O10 can be successfully enhanced by introducing oxygen vacancies.

A team of researchers led by Professor Xie Chengjun and Associate Professor Zhang Jie at Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), unveiled Fourier-ISP, a novel deep-learning based framework for RAW-to-sRGB image conversion.

Solving today's most complex scientific challenges often means tracing links between hundreds, thousands or even millions of variables. The larger the scientific dataset, the more complex these connections become.

Recientemente, un equipo de investigación dirigido por el profesor Li Xianfeng del Instituto Dalian de Física Química (DICP) de la Academia de Ciencias de China (CAS) desarrolló una pila de baterías de flujo de vanadio de alta densidad de potencia y 70 kW.En comparación con la pila actual de nivel 30kW, esta pila tiene una densidad de potencia volumétrica de 130kW/m3 y el costo se reduce en un 40%.

Los científicos han fabricado separadores de tereftalato de polietileno (PET) resistentes a altas temperaturas para baterías de iones de litio.El estudio, realizado por investigadores del Instituto de Física Moderna (IMP) de la Academia China de Ciencias (CAS) y el Laboratorio de Ciencia y Tecnología Energética Avanzada de Guangdong, se publicó en ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.

A team of AI researchers at Google's DeepMind, working with a colleague from New York University, has developed an AI system called AlphaGeometry that has demonstrated an ability to solve complex geometry problems at a high level.

A trio of soft robotics researchers at Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, in Italy, working with a colleague from the University of Montpellier, in France, has developed a unique type of robot that 3D prints its own body as a means to grow longer. In their paper published in the journal Science Robotics, the group describes how they created their robot and the possible uses for it.

In the switch to "greener" energy sources, the demand for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries is surging. However, their cathodes typically contain cobalt—a metal whose extraction has high environmental and societal costs. Now, researchers in ACS Central Science report evaluating an earth-abundant, carbon-based cathode material that could replace cobalt and other scarce and toxic metals without sacrificing lithium-ion battery performance.

El transporte es probablemente el sector económico más difícil de descarbonizar.Y los vehículos de carretera producen la mayor cantidad de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero del sector del transporte australiano: el 85% de su total.Los camiones de carga representan sólo el 8% de los viajes en nuestras carreteras, pero el 27% de las emisiones del transporte.

En el mundo cada vez más interconectado de hoy, la comunicación de alta calidad se ha vuelto más vital que nunca.Estimar con precisión el estado dinámico de los canales de comunicación es un factor clave para lograrlo.Recientemente, un equipo de investigación conjunto diseñó un nuevo algoritmo que ofrece precisión de estimación de alto nivel y protección de la privacidad con bajos costos computacionales y de comunicación.Esta investigación fue publicada en Computación inteligente.

Investigadores dirigidos por el profesor Xie Chengjun y el profesor asociado Zhang Jie de los Institutos Hefei de Ciencias Físicas de la Academia de Ciencias de China han desarrollado un novedoso método basado en el aprendizaje profundo para imágenes satelitales.

Governments and businesses are not prepared for the havoc quantum computers will sow in cybersecurity by the end of the decade, according to an International Business Machines Corp. executive.

Two insect-like robots, a mini-bug and a water strider, developed at Washington State University, are the smallest, lightest and fastest fully functional micro-robots ever known to be created.

Have you ever wondered what wildlife animals do all day? Documentaries offer a glimpse into their lives, but animals under the watchful eye do not do anything interesting. The true essence of their behaviors remains elusive. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a camera that allows us to capture these behaviors.

Investigadores de la Universidad de Kyushu, en colaboración con la Universidad de Osaka y el Centro de Cerámica Fina, han desarrollado un marco que utiliza el aprendizaje automático para acelerar el descubrimiento de materiales para la tecnología de energía verde.

When combating complex problems like illegal poaching and human trafficking, efficient yet broad geospatial search tools can provide critical assistance in finding and stopping the activity. A visual active search (VAS) framework for geospatial exploration developed by researchers in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis uses a novel visual reasoning model and aerial imagery to learn how to search for objects more effectively.
