We are already benefiting from the perks of drone technology in many different fields. Micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) belong to the drone family as well, but they did not yet make their big mark in the world of technology. The wait just got a little shorter, as a scientific team produced an innovative design and successfully perched its MAV…
Original news release was issued by NASA. Two days ago, NASA launched its
An anomalous phenomenon was observed by Doo Jin Lee and Young Seok Song from Department
At this point, we are used to talking about Big Data having a plethora of applications. We dream about data-driven, IoT-powered smart cities with perfectly optimized traffic, and medical clinics that constantly receive data about our health to not only streamline the process behind treatment…
Testing urine samples is a ubiquitous practice that we have learned to accept as a part of an ordinary checkup when visiting a doctor. One urine sample can be enough to indicate evidence of kidney disease, diabetes, urinary tract infections and even signs of bladder cancer…
User privacy and data security is a long-standing issue with everything connected, and even more so now that we carry and wear more data-sponges than we ever did. PIN codes and passwords are still the go-to way of securing one’s information, but it is safe to say that biometric identifiers…
At Slovak University of Technology, professor Viera Stropjaková is working hard with her team to design an ultra-compact device for stress monitoring. This system would primarily find its use in medical science, but it could be helpful in many more areas…
At Georgia Tech, when pursuing master’s degree in Computer Science, Knowledge Based Artificial Intelligence (KBAI) is a mandatory class. It is thought by Professor Ashok Goel. As it happens in popular classes, even before they start, students have questions. For the most part, it is the job of teaching assistants (TA) to answer them…
A significant part of the population in developing countries suffer from a chronic lung illness, most often asthma or cystic fibrosis. Convenient health care may be hard to come by in these parts of the world, but most people there do have access to a phone of some description, which is now on enough to reliably measure lung function…
Memory manipulation is an attractive concept that has only a very short history of successful experiments, but we are certainly making progress in decoding what exactly makes our brains tick. In the most recent news, scientists at Stony Brook University have identified and successfully meddled with the process responsible for…
