Entangling particles helps improve the accuracy of quantum measurements
Using 19 different quantum computers, scientists demonstrate how entangled particles break limitations in accuracy on the sub-atomic scale.
How “wavy” whiskers help seals detect faraway prey
Recreating the bead-like structure of seal whiskers grants scientists insight into new underwater technologies.
Searching for dark matter in our solar system
Sending atomic and nuclear clocks into the inner reaches of our solar system could help scientists find proof of elusive dark matter.
Reviving mechanical computers for use in extreme environments
Putting a modern spin on old tech, scientists create a mechanical computer from metamaterials for situations where electronic computers break down.
Seahorse-inspired grabbing robots to help clean up our oceans
Researchers take a lead from seahorse tails to develop grasping robots that could help clear up trash from our oceans.
Building ultra-precise clocks thanks to quantum entanglement
Scientists use quantum entanglement to compare two atomic clocks achieving what might be the ultimate precision possible.
Mimicking the brain with single transistor artificial neurons
The power demands of the Internet of Things could be combated with computing systems that mimic biological neurons.
To-go lids inspire adaptive drone wing
Borrowing its shape from a disposable to-go cup lid, this new drone wing adapts to its surroundings all on its own.
Leveraging the nervous system to manage pain
Implantable and completely dissolvable electrical devices may end the dominance of opioids in managing pain.
