Computational Neuroscientists And Engineers Build Robot That Teaches Itself To Walk Up And Down Hills
Computational neuroscientists designed a robot that teaches itself how to walk on differing terrain. The RunBot uses an infrared eye to detect slopes, and adjusts its gait for the smoothest walk. ... > more -
Physicists Explain How To Sail Faster Than The Wind
Physicists know the secrets of sailing that many novice sailors do not. A boat does not go fastest when the wind blows from directly behind it, but when the wind comes from the side. With the sails ... > more -
Mathematicians Analyze Beer Bubbles To Peer Deeper Into The Structure Of Materials
Mathematicians built a formula to explain the behavior of beer bubbles in three dimensions and found that it can be applied to other materials like metals. Explaining the behavior of beer bubbles is ... > more -
Fluid Dynamics Class Inspires College Student To Develop 'Plasma Paddles'
As a kid, Stephen Taylor didn't just want to play video games ... he wanted to invent them too. Now, his dream is reality. Bored during a college break, he developed a video game called Plasma ... > more -
Cardiac Electrophysiologists Make MRIs Safe For People With Pacemakers
