What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry would be disassembled at the end of a building's lifetime and reassembled into a new structure, in a sustainable cycle that could supply generations of buildings using the same physical building blocks.

Some cities and states are throwing out single-family zoning to increase density and create more affordable housing.

Ensuring that robots can smoothly collaborate with humans in real-world environments is a crucial step towards their large-scale deployment. While some robotic systems are already engaging daily with human agents, for instance at partially automated industrial and manufacturing facilities, human-robot collaboration on everyday tasks remains scarce.

Ray-Ban maker EssilorLuxottica said Tuesday that it extended a partnership with Facebook and Instagram owner Meta to develop smart-eyewear products after producing glasses that let users make calls, capture images and listen to music.

Chronic low-frequency noise from vehicles, appliances, and industries takes a toll on mental health, causing stress and anxiety. Traditional acoustic silencers require bulky designs to achieve effective noise reduction at low frequencies.

Pipeline installations are often plagued by challenges such as design deviations and unexpected clashes during assembly, leading to costly corrections and project delays. Conventional quality control measures are usually implemented after fabrication, missing the opportunity for early error detection. This situation underscores the urgent need for integrated methods that provide continuous, real-time quality control throughout the entire assembly process.

Protective gloves, such as those used for work, sport or household gardening, retrieve their protective function from a special coating. This coating provides abrasion resistance, makes the material waterproof and resistant to chemicals or oil, and even protects against cuts and punctures. Until now, coatings made of oil-based polymers, nitrile rubber or latex have been the main materials used.

Much of the nation's stormwater infrastructure, designed decades to a century ago to prevent floods, can exacerbate flooding during the severe weather events that are increasing around the globe, new research led by the University of Michigan demonstrates.

Fuel cells are energy-conversion solutions that generate electricity via electrochemical reactions without combustion, thus not contributing to the pollution of air on Earth. These cells could power various technologies, ranging from electric vehicles to portable chargers and industrial machines.

Taking inspiration from nature, researchers from Princeton Engineering have improved crack resistance in concrete components by coupling architected designs with additive manufacturing processes and industrial robots that can precisely control materials deposition.
