Medical textiles have a need for repellency to body fluids such as blood, urine, or sweat that may contain infectious vectors that contaminate surfaces and spread to other individuals. Similarly, viral repellency…
New technology revolutionizes 3D metal printing by using LED instead of Laser or electron beam
A technology developed at Graz University of Technology in Austria uses LED instead of laser sources for the additive manufacturing of metal parts and optimizes 3D metal printing in terms of construction…
Researchers develop real-time physics engine for soft robotics
Researchers have developed technology to simulate the movements of soft, limbed robots for the first time. Soft robots are primarily composed of soft materials that can allow for mechanically robust maneuvers that…
MIT researchers map tiny twists in “magic-angle” graphene
Made of a single layer of carbon atoms linked in a hexagonal honeycomb pattern, graphene’s structure is simple and seemingly delicate. Since its discovery in 2004, scientists have found that graphene is…
Scientists demonstrate Quantum Radar prototype
Physicists at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) have invented a new radar prototype that utilizes quantum entanglement as a method of object detection. This successful integration of quantum…
