In recent years, engineers have introduced a wide range of photovoltaic (PV) solutions that could facilitate the sustainable generation of electricity worldwide. These include organic solar cells (OSCs), PV devices that use organic molecules or polymers to convert sunlight into electrical power.

Hurricane Beryl lashed the southeastern Caribbean as a Category 4 storm — an unprecedented strength this early in the Atlantic season.

Bando Stone & The New World is directed by Glover and features a brand new Childish Gambino soundtrack.

The discovery could lead to new treatments for obesity, the scientists say.

ITER, the largest testing bed for nuclear fusion on Earth, could prove the viability of the power source—if it ever turns on.

Space Pioneer's Tianlong-3 rocket somehow escaped its restraints during a static fire test on Sunday.

As an undergraduate engineering student in Delhi, India, Amisha Bhaskar took a field trip to a facility for disabled war veterans and met a man who had lost both hands. When she asked him what technologies could improve his life, his reply left an indelible impression: He wanted something so he could take care of himself and not be forced to rely upon others.

A team led by University of Maryland computer scientists has invented a camera mechanism that improves how robots see and react to the world around them. Inspired by how the human eye works, their innovative camera system mimics the tiny involuntary movements used by the eye to maintain clear and stable vision over time.

Hydrogen generated with the power of the sun could largely replace fossil fuels in the future, helping to lower carbon emissions. In the Neo-PEC joint research project, Fraunhofer specialists have developed a tandem module that is self-sufficient and reliable at producing solar-generated green hydrogen.

Nick Ferenchak isn't just an assistant professor in the Gerald May Department of Civil, Construction & Environmental Engineering at The University of New Mexico, he's also the president of Not-A-Loud, a local company creating noise cameras.

Bitter cold temperatures. Unrelenting heat. Power outages that last for weeks. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) researchers are planning for extreme weather by calculating what it will take to make the situation survivable.

With the current buzz around artificial intelligence (AI), it would be easy to assume that it is a recent innovation. In fact, AI has been around in one form or another for more than 70 years. To understand the current generation of AI tools and where they might lead, it is helpful to understand how we got here.

Researchers have developed a lightweight fluidic engine to power muscle-mimicking soft robots for use in assistive devices. What sets the new engine apart is its ability to generate significant force without being tethered to an external power source.

Scientists can name genes whatever they want now.

Infrared mapping tech aboard the spacecraft sheds light on the volcanic activity of Io, Jupiter's second-smallest Galilean moon
