Optimizing the performance of lithium batteries for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has become an important goal for researchers at Argonne National Laboratory.
Researchers have developed a one-catalyst system for achieving synthetic photosynthesis that potentially can be used to develop water-based clean fuels.
Mobile crowdsensing offers a solution that could become a key technology behind smart cities, tackling parking and other issues. But is the public willing to opt in?
Edge computing offers a range of benefits for automation control applications. It’s an emerging megatrend for controlling, collecting, and analyzing data at the network’s edge.
Michael McAlpine is leading researchers at the University of Minnesota in the creation of 3D printing technology that can enmesh electronics into biological materials.
A few brief announcements at Magic Leap's developer conference beg the question of whether Magic Leap would be more comfortable in offices and factory floors than homes and arcades.
US-based Cadenza Innovation has found a way to configure batteries into packs that promise better safety, have greater volumetric energy density, and cost less.
Control engineers want to access plant processes and equipment conditions on their mobile phone. They want touchscreen capability and they expect the HMI to go beyond read-only to become a control panel in the pocket.
Need a little bit of help in the kitchen? Here's how to build a Bake Mate—a baking assistant that weighs your ingredients, tells you how much of each you will need, and performs several other handy functions.
US military researchers have developed a way to use recycled bottles and other refuse materials to 3D-print replacement parts for soldiers in the field.
Metal 3D printing is getting real. In this free e-book, we've gathered some guidelines for engineers on designing for 3D metals printing and how it differs both from traditional metals techniques like casting, as well as 3D printing with polymers.
