A research team from Tokyo University of Science, Japan, has developed an automated artificial intelligence-based approach for analyzing X-ray absorption spectroscopy data to establish a clear and objective link between a material’s spectral data and its underlying material properties.
Smart fabric gives robots a soft touch
See how researchers at Hong Kong Polytechnic University integrated magnetics into thin fibers that allowed them to build woven fabric patches that can “breathe,” gloves that can transmit tactile sensations, and “fingertips” for robots that allow them to pick up soft, squishy objects without harming them.
