Inside-outside temp differences power smart building IoT

Understanding materials and how they transport themselves from one state to another at the nano- and micro-scale can help researchers tailor their physical, chemical, thermal and mechanical properties for specific engineering applications. This knowledge base can enable a broad array of research advances, including renewable-energy-harvesting devices and innovative Internet of…

Global crises test humanitarian supply chains

Supply chain burst upon the scene as a suddenly familiar topic to the general public with the global COVID-19 pandemic, as illness and lockdowns stymied companies large and small in their efforts to get commodities and parts to make everyday products from toilet paper to cars. But supply chains, with…

Digital twins: An on-ramp to autonomous driving

Autonomous driving seems far away, but our vehicles already are equipped with some of its enabling technologies. Systems like adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assistance on many new vehicle models greatly relieve human drivers of the burden of tedious driving tasks, such as cruising on an empty freeway or stop-and-go…

Truck-portable nuclear reactors go where the power is needed

Nuclear energy is critical for a sustainable future because it is not only a reliable energy source but also one of the lowest CO2 emitters. A recent report from the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) indicated that the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions per kilowatt of energy generated by…

Tech stories that will dominate 2023

It is, of course, notoriously hard to make predictions in the field of technology, and many wise men have been made to look silly through their failed tech forecasts. Nevertheless, I sat down to look at my crystal ball to predict what stories are likely to dominate the news in…

Digital twins: Smart manufacturing’s DNA for a bright future

Our current political divisiveness is grounded in the separation of haves and have-nots. It stinks to be on the have-not side, and it can happen to anybody. Manufacturing helps to move people to the have side. So, how can we bring offshored manufacturing back to the United States, and how…

Robots get their sea legs

It’s a big deal when a child first walks. A similar breakthrough is taking place in robotics, where researchers are working on legged robots, especially those capable of walking on non-stationary rigid surfaces. These robots could aid in a wide range of critical tasks, from fighting a fire on a…

Humans and robots go hand in hand

“No man is an island, entire of itself,” the English poet John Donne wrote. The same could be said of robots — they are not ultimately stand-alone solutions. Just as humans need their mechanical and computational assist, robots need the flexibility and safety awareness of humans, as the two increasingly…

Making semiconductors dense and cool

Crowded places get hot, and few compare to the inside of a semiconductor, with its multiple levels, 3D metal interconnects, and dense components packed tightly in a small space. If you imagine the soon-coming 3D vertical metal interconnects in the sub-micron range as people — and the dense chip/package as…
