You might naturally expect a wide, open path to be faster and easier to navigate than a narrow one, just as birds fly freely through the open sky, cars move quickly on empty roads, and […]
Zachary Kopel ’26 has developed a forecasting tool now in use by the U.S. Space Force to help predict dangerous convective wind events, including microbursts that can threaten rockets during launch operations.This post was originally […]
In computer vision and robotics, ensuring that AI systems remain reliable under real-world conditions is a growing challenge. Deep neural network (DNN)-based vision systems are increasingly used in safety-critical applications such as autonomous driving, where […]
New research is dismantling the longstanding myth of the “pristine” Amazon. A reconstruction of 10,000 years of Amazonian pyrogeography, based on 1,361 radiocarbon (¹⁴C) dates across 303 sites—including soil charcoal and burned archaeological material—shows that […]
Giving robot companions animal-like or anime-style faces and voices could maximize their emotional appeal to users, according to new research that could help guide the growing field of social robotics.This post was originally published on […]
Europe is no stranger to powerful windstorms, but some storms capable of causing serious damage have an unusual origin. Tropical cyclones can occasionally travel north from lower latitudes and reach Europe, where they can bring […]
Could a machine ever feel pain or pleasure? Could it have its own inner experience of the world? As artificial intelligence grows more fluent in conversation, reasoning and problem-solving, this question is migrating from science […]
Cats, dogs, wolves and other agile four-legged animals can easily jump and squeeze through tight spaces while moving at high speed. Reproducing similar agile motions and skills in quadrupedal robots has so far proved challenging.This […]
3D printers that once could only produce rigid objects can now create products as soft and stretchable as rubber. A team of Korean researchers used AI to identify the optimal “recipe” for a material that […]
The United States Constitution protects the free exercise of religion, meaning that religious exemptions can sometimes be granted if a law infringes on someone’s sincerely held religious beliefs. But how do people decide whether someone […]
