MIT and Ford have created a robot-carriers, which are guided without the use of GPS
who don't need GPS — this is something new In recent years, more and more companies rely on the use of robotic couriers. In order to be able to deliver the parcel to the recipient, they, of course, need to navigate. The sol...
MIT has created inks that can change colors like a chameleon
in order For something to repaint, the paint is no longer needed that is logical, is selected and is set in its production. And if we need to change the colour, then you just need to take the paint and manually recolor what we ne...
To heat the house with solar light, but the electricity here at anything
Today, the country house can be heated not only through coal and gas furnaces but also by solar energy. And we are not talking about the solar panels that generate electricity to power the heaters, and about the so-called solar co...
Try a graphical editor based on neural network
we can All draw simple shapes or sketchy people, cars and so on. But the real talent of the artist is endowed with a few. Oh and if it comes to photoshop, then to personal qualities is added the need to understand the intricacies ...
MIT taught AI to write Christmas stories. But they turned out very strange
there is already a lot of algorithms that are based on neural networks can generate a variety of works. They are still a little applicable in practice, and some are used for fun. Last year, Janelle Shane, together with the New Yor...
At MIT used a biological virus in order to speed up your computer
whenever the computer (and any other electronic device) processes the data, there is a small delay, that is to say, the transfer of information "from one equipment to another" (e.g. from the memory to physical). The more powerful ...
AI improved editor of genome, predicting the results
With the editor of the genome of the CRISPR-Cas9 is pretty well learned to deal. However, with a fairly good knowledge of technology and how it works, the results obtained in the course of editing, not always predictable. This is ...
At MIT developed a two-dimensional material, which will bring the creation of quantum computers
In recent years, scientists increasingly are developing in the creation of two-dimensional materials. And is the graphene is not the only one in this list. For example, we recently wrote about a new modification of phosphorus, whi...
MIT launches online project, where anyone will be able to manage a real person
Experiments that put scientists, not always are monotonous, boring and uninteresting to the public. Sometimes it is quite the opposite. For example, researchers from the Media lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology next ...
At MIT figured out how to put the production on stream of microbots
Modern robots are not only learning new tricks like and are on the path of miniaturization. Repeatedly on pages of our site we wrote about a variety of microbots that can work inside our bodies to monitor vital signs or drug deliv...
A new modification of the CRISPR can edit up to 50 percent of the genome
Editor of CRISPR genome has become a very important tool in medical research and may ultimately have a significant impact on various areas: from agriculture to treat a whole heap of hereditary diseases. However, it is far from per...
Scientists from MIT said that could be responsible for the development of intelligence
Despite the fact that the nervous system of humans and other mammals already studied well enough how some of its aspects still remains a mystery. For example, if we compare the structure of the brain of humans and our closest of k...
A self-healing material can repair itself with the help of carbon dioxide
Very often in sci-Fi works, you can see some high-tech materials, which after the damage to heal, if they themselves try to "cure". Sounds and looks extremely unrealistic, because if the damage destroyed the bonds between the mole...
At MIT teach robots to navigate on city streets
Many of the actions we are taking are as it were "automatically". Agree, when we walk down the street in a crowd of other people — we are not thinking about how and where to put his feet when walking, on a path to circumvent...
MIT has created a moving human body robot diagnostician
Different kind of robotics finds application in various spheres of our life. Usually, hearing the word "robot", most of us imagine something large, metallic, moving on legs or treads. There are, however, robots are much smaller. F...
At MIT create a battery that absorbs carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide, one of the main waste production, can serve as fuel for the batteries of the new type. At least, so say experts at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which engaged in creation of such a battery. toda...
AI has learned to recognize objects in pictures by voice description
for a long time there is a technology of speech recognition. As a function of image recognition. So why not combine improving both? Apparently, that's what I thought the experts from the Massachusetts technological University (MIT...
AI from MIT teach robots to manipulate objects that they see in the first
Even despite the fact that modern robots are very well know how to deal with different kinds of objects previously in their program need to lay the data about those objects. And if the robot gets something that he's not good – it ...
Engineers at MIT have created a robot the size of a human cell
we All used to represent the robots if you don't like the big mechanical creatures, at least as something that could be seen with the naked eye. We have about SHRIMP — miniature robots, rescuers from DARPA. But engineers fro...
At MIT learned to control the properties of plastic
for over a hundred years of plastic products and plastics are widely used in many areas of our life. However, the physical properties of this material can depend not only on composition but also on the molecular structure. Recentl...
