Wearable stretchable electronics: A new design and fabrication process for skin-like integrated circuits
2024-03-13 21:37:05
Small wearable or implantable electronics could help monitor our health, diagnose diseases, and provide opportunities for improved, autonomous treatments. But to do this without aggravating or damaging the cells around them, these electronics will need to not only bend and stretch with our tissues as they move, but also be soft enough that they will not scratch and damage tissues.

2024-03-13 21:36:35
Interest in shared e-bikes and e-scooters, or "micromobility" devices, has skyrocketed in Australia. Every capital city and over 25 local councils have trialed shared e-scooter systems through private operators including Lime, Beam and Neuron.
How AI is shaping the music listening habits of Gen Z
2024-03-13 21:36:35
For four years, we've been teaching a class on music and the mind. We've asked the students at the start of each semester to complete a short, informal survey on their music education and favorite songs and artists.
Petrol, pricing and parking: Why so many outer suburban residents are opting for electric vehicles
2024-03-13 21:36:35
Until now, you might have thought of electric vehicles as inner suburban toys. Teslas and Polestars are expensive, leaving them as playthings for wealthier Australians and out of reach for the mortgage belt.
AI is creating fake legal cases and making its way into real courtrooms, with disastrous results
2024-03-13 21:35:55
We've seen deepfake, explicit images of celebrities, created by artificial intelligence (AI). AI has also played a hand in creating music, driverless race cars and spreading misinformation, among other things.
Building trust between humans and robots when managing conflicting objectives
2024-03-13 21:35:43
A new University of Michigan study on how humans and robots work together on tasks with conflicting objectives is the first to demonstrate that trust and team performance improve when the robot actively adapts to the human's strategy.
Even robots make mistakes: How humans walk with imperfect exoskeletons
2024-03-13 21:35:39
When lower limb exoskeletons—mechanical structures worn on the leg—do not operate properly, some people adjust quickly while others compensate with their ankle or hip, expending more energy than necessary, according to a new study by University of Michigan researchers.
Suspended solar panels see the light
2024-03-13 21:35:37
In the 80 years since the shocking collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington, engineers have designed suspended structures to minimize their universal weakness: resonance. If not designed to deal with oscillations caused by forces like wind, the frequency of these forces would cause tensions to build and inevitably break the structure.
Cyberattack leaves health care providers reeling weeks later
2024-03-13 21:24:18
Following a cyberattack on the largest health insurer in the United States last month, health care providers continue to scramble as insurance payments and prescription orders continue to be disrupted and physicians lose an estimated $100 million a day.
A quadrupedal robot can do parkour and walk across rubble
2024-03-13 21:10:01
The robot known as ANYmal has, for some time, had no problem coping with the stony terrain of Swiss hiking trails. Now researchers at ETH Zurich have taught this quadrupedal robot some new skills: It is proving rather adept at parkour, a sport based on using athletic maneuvers to smoothly negotiate obstacles in an urban environment, which has become very popular. ANYmal is also proficient at dealing with the tricky terrain commonly found on building sites or in disaster areas.
Researchers develop new control method that optimizes autonomous ship navigation
2024-03-13 21:09:36
