UC San Diego-based engineers build the first 3D printed quadrupled soft robot. They claimed that the robot can climb over any obstacle like sand and pebbles.
University of Houston physicists has discovered a catalyst that can split water into hydrogen and oxygen, composed of easily available, low-cost materials and be operating far more efficiently than previous catalysts.
Scientists created more compact & high Power lithium-ion batteries with electroplating method. Researchers replaced the glue-like substances from the cathode that were used to spread lithium-containing powders to spread over the cathode.
Scientists found the evolution behind the various brain sizes and functionality. Neuroscientists from Cornell University have collected 58 species of songbirds from 20 different families and studied the evolution of brain sizes.
The new members added to the family of Panthera uncia or snow leopard. It's been thought that the species is monotypic, but the recent study on snow leopard from different habitat reveal the existence of three different sub-species.
Most human interactions with robots come from behind a screen. Whether it's fiction or a real-life interaction, rarely are we put face to face with a robot. This poses a significant barrier when we look towards a future where robots will be part of our everyday lives.
Recently a group of paleobotanist found the fossilized flower in Argentina which belongs to Buckthorn family. The fossil is located in the shales of the Salamanca Formation.
Brown University geologist Peter Schultz revealed the reason behind the scoured surface streaks on Mars. An impact crater on Mars generates tornado-like winds that make such patterns.
A newly discovered molecule called Rhodopsin 7 acts as a light-sensing molecule in fruit fly brain. Scientists from the University of California started a light cycle test to chek the expression pattern of Rh7 in fruit flies.
The new method of producing microbial energy can be the most efficient way of producing fuel. scientists found Flavin-Based Electron Bifurcation increases the efficiency of enzymes
Researchers from North Carolina State University has found how Odontomachus trap-Jaw ants develop themselves from larva stages. By using scanning electron microscope the team has discovered that they have to go through three stages during larvae development.
