A group of engineers is engaged in fabricating smart robot that would help in quickly recycling soft plastic in a novel way. The robot is capable enough to not only recognize but also segregate and separate various items in recyclable garbage. Soft plastics are hard to recycle through the robotic approach, as the garbage may interfere in the autonomous functioning. Due to this concern, manual sorting of soft plastics is preferred, which is a laborious and possibly lethal operation.

As per an authentic report,one out of every ten peoplein the world experiences sudden acute cardiac arrest, with a demise rate of 3050% even when CPR- and AED-like facilitiesare provided on time. While, in some incidences, ambulance and healthcare workersfail toreach the spotin time,as every minute after cardiac arrest is crucial. A team of scientists at Swedens Karolinska Institute has devised a pragmatic approach to prevent such unfortunate incidences.
The researchers explicated in their s
AI-powered mobile detectors in agricultural fields to recognize crop diseases could revolutionize the agriculture sector as in every country the food demand is increasing at a fast rate due to an increase in population. Moreover, the extensive use of technology these days has increased the accuracy and efficacy of disease diagnostic tools in plants and animals. Thanks to the innovative study conducted by the scientists at the Imperial College London. The team has been able to identify the firs
A doctor examines the cause of illness by the physical condition of a patient along with performing some basic clinical tests. Apart from these, the medical professional prescribes a simple blood test to determine if the cause of illness is an infection. However, the approach of diagnosing and treating is way more complicated when a person is dealing with mental illness. So far, no meticulous diagnostic test has been commercially available to diagnose depression. Mental health experts can vali
The University of Exeter researchers have recently uncovered research that aims to identify tipping points that pertain to climate change that occurred over 55 million years ago. The team noted some refreshing changes that offer new insights into what caused the most rapid and dramatic instances of climate change formats in the history of the Earth. The team made pivotal breakthroughs in the scenery behind the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) an extreme global warming event that lasted
Researchers at Imperial College London have developed building blocks that can automatically recover after surviving a damage-causing event. The artificially developed living materials, also known as engineered living materials(ELMs) utilize biological skills to restore the damaged part of the material and could use a sense-and-response mechanism to respond to damage during unfavorable conditions.
This study could significantly contribute to developing real-world materials that can detect an
The concept of developing an AI virtual assistant that can autonomously and efficiently manage logistics operations is transforming into reality. SimpliRoutean IT-based start-up, which is focused onimproving the route selection of order dispatching trucks. The issue, according to the CEO and Co-founder of the start-up, lvaro Echeverria, was that no default software has been developed yet, which can evaluate the real-time condition of the route. The drivers are unaware of the actual condition o
The University of California researchers have recently underlined method for a safe mode of dispensing wastewater. Generally, improper disposal of wastewater has been linked to rising earthquakes. The following reason triggered the research team to extending a valuable and workable hypothesis for current issue. Increased production of oil leads to higher creation of wastewater which is generally injected into the ground as a mean of avoiding polluting surface waters. However, previous generati
Research team from the Linkoping University have recently uncovered the pertaining questions in a commonly asked health surveys for young people that are based on status and convey norms about how an optimal life should be unfolded. The team quotes that since the 1980s, the physical and mental health of the young and children were measured by an assortment of health surveys. One of the most commonly used survey is the internationally accepted Health Behavior in School-aged Children Survey whic
The University of Exeter researchers have uncovered key focal points in their research paper about the extended effects of childhood trauma making the affected person develop stronger inclination toward the more use of morphine. The team suggests that such users are expected to turn toward a pleasurable high from morphine in order to subdue some recurring memories in order to cope up. The team compared the effects of morphine on 52 healthy people 27 out of whichhave witnessed a history of chi
