    Neuromorphic controllers to enhance control during landing in micro air vehicles

    Flying insects are able to navigate their environments efficiently, processing visual stimuli to avoid obstacles and land safely on a variety of surfaces. Over the past decade or so, research teams worldwide have been trying to replicate these capabilities in autonomous micro air vehicles (MAVs) using mechanisms similar to those observed in insects.

  • How do you power billions of sensors? By converting waste heat into electricity

    How do you power billions of sensors? By converting waste heat into electricity

    Interconnected healthcare and many other future applications will require internet connectivity between billions of sensors. The devices that will enable these applications must be small, flexible, reliable, and environmentally sustainable. Researchers must develop new tools beyond batteries to power these devices, because continually replacing batteries is difficult and expensive.

  • Wearable strain sensor using light transmittance helps measure physical signals better

    Wearable strain sensor using light transmittance helps measure physical signals better

    KAIST researchers have developed a novel wearable strain sensor based on the modulation of optical transmittance of a carbon nanotube (CNT)-embedded elastomer. The sensor is capable of sensitive, stable, and continuous measurement of physical signals. This technology, featured in the March 4th issue of ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces as a front cover article, shows great potential for the detection of subtle human motions and the real-time monitoring of body postures for healthcare applications.

    Researchers use 3-D printing, sensors to create models for hydropower testing

    Hydropower developers must consider many factors when it comes time to license a new project or renew an existing one: How can environmental impacts be mitigated, including to fish populations? Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have landed a unique solution: using 3-D printing and sensors to create fake fish for turbine testing.
