Over the years, robots have been equipped with a range of features such as computer vision modules, artificial touch sensors and some advanced humanoids have even been altered with smell sensors. Researchers are often keen on integrating robots with human-like senses. The researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a robot that implemented radio technology in order to detect objects and navigate its way through. The robot, or GF-Grasp, contains a combination of powerful
A collaboration from a German-Danish group of researchers aims to reduce the impact of climate change from an unusual source of pollutant. The production of rice counts for less than five percent of total global green house methane which in turn is 25 times stronger than CO2. A flooded rice field creates the optimal environment for producing methane. However, the researchers conclude that adding an electric conductive cable bacteria to the soil can reduce methane production by more than 90%. C
The latest application in the hair-thin fiber optic cables is distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) A method which detects the tiniest movement flaws for collecting seismic data and warn of an impending earthquake. This technology works on the premise of installation of thousands of sensors along tens of kilometers of fiber optic cable. A device at one end of the cable sends laser pulses and collects and measures the intensity of the echo at the other end as it is being reflected back by interna
Researchers from the University of Alberta have used 3D printing technology to design custom-shaped cartilage for further application in surgical tasks. In case of skin cancer patients with nasal cartilage defects, the aim is to restore the skin features. For this, the researchers believed the specially created hydrogel which comprises of the Jell-O which is mixed is patient harvested cells and then printed into particular shapes using 3D imaging technology. After a few weeks, this material cu
Generally, repairing the injuries caused to the skin and bones located in the skull and skin is tough as there are many layers of various types of tissues present. However, the researchers have recently found to use bioprinting at the time of surgery to help repair such defects. The latest study may lead to quick and reliable techniques of healing of bones and skin. According to lead researcher Ibrahim T. Ozbolat from Engineering Science and Mechanics, Biomedical Engineering and Neurosurgery,
In some of the cancers, the tumor origin is unrecognizable as the newly developed cancer therapeutics targets the primary tumor sites, thereby making the diagnosis of cancer of unknown primary (CUP) difficult and with a average overall survival of 2.7‑16 Months. For specific diagnosis, the patients are advised to perform detailed diagnostic study including biopsies, laboratory tests, and endoscopy procedures. Patients with metastatic cancer in the low-resource areas could now use an artificial
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) scientists has designed a new system to offer a fast and non-invasive means to heal the holes or tears in the blood vessels with the help of an electrically-activated glue patch coated using a less invasive balloon catheter. The new device is likely to substitute the keyhole or open surgeries to help stitch or patch up the internal blood vessel defects. The catheter is inserted into the concerned blood vessel and then the glue patch named Voltag
