Exploring the use of artificial intelligence in architecture
Over the past few decades, artificial intelligence (AI) tools have been used to analyze data or complete basic tasks in an increasing number of fields, ranging from computer science to...
Nanoscale Schottky diodes fabricated via adhesion lithography
To fabricate nanoscale photonic and electronic devices, engineers need electrodes made of asymmetric metals separated by gaps in the nanometer (nm) length scale. So far, most of these electrodes...
A pocket cooling device based on a cascade mechanism
Recent technological advances have enabled the development of increasingly compact and flexible devices. This includes wearable or portable technology, such as smart watches, earphones or other...
Previewed Reality: A system that allows users to predict future changes in their environment
When robots and humans interact in a shared environment, it is important for them to move in ways that prevent collisions or accidents. To reduce the risk of collisions, roboticists have developed...
Searching for axion dark matter conversion signals in the magnetic fields around neutron stars
According to theoretical predictions, axion dark matter could be converted into radio frequency electromagnetic radiation when it approaches the strong magnetic fields that surround neutron stars....
Efficient light-emitting diodes made by depositing perovskites on a fluoride interface
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are devices that emit light when electrical current flows through them, traditionally fabricated using semiconducting materials. Over the past few years, scientists and...
CREATING A DIFFERENT YOGA EXPERIENCE
Yoga can be a truly empowering and uplifting practice. When practiced regularly, it can help strengthen the connection between our mind, heart, and body, while also training us to be more grounded...
A technique to over-dope graphene beyond the van Hove singularity
For over a decade, theoretical physicists have predicted that the van Hove singularity of graphene could be associated with different exotic phases of matter, the most notable of which is chiral...
A robot that can track specific people and follow them around
Telling humans apart and following them as they move in their surrounding environment could be two highly valuable skills for service robots. In fact, when combined, these two capabilities would...
An obstacle avoidance system for flying robots inspired by owls
When developing robotic systems and computational tools, computer scientists often draw inspiration from animals or other biological systems. Depending on a system's unique characteristics and...
