Researchers reduced the time required to create a traffic congestion model by an order of magnitude, from hours to minutes, by using public data from the entire 1,500-square-mile Los Angeles metropolitan area. The TranSEC tool…

Researchers from the University of Basel have created a virtual reality app for smartphones to help people overcome their fear of heights. They have now conducted a clinical trial to investigate its efficacy. Trial participants…

The convergence of new 5G communication technologies and AI-based systems heralds the arrival of a “smart generation” of vehicles, drones, and even entire cities. Researchers have now taken things a step further by introducing a…

Scientists all over the world have been working to return people who are unable to move, see, or care for themselves for various reasons to self-sufficiency. One of the most significant challenges that researchers face…

In a beautiful demonstration of how modern technology can affect people’s lives, a woman uses her appearance on a game show to reconstruct her voice after she lost control of motor neurone disease (MND). Helen Whitelaw,…

In 2020, a team of biologists and computer scientists from Tufts University and the University of Vermont (UVM) developed a novel, tiny self-healing biological machines called “Xenobots” from frog cells that could move around, push…

Scientists have discovered that powerful algorithms can ‘predict’ the biological language of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Big data collected over decades of research was fed into a computer language model to see…

Last October, scientists announced the creation of a ultra-white color so that it could used to keep reflections and even entire buildings cool. This groundbreaking world has actually pushed the envelope into new ways to…

From bacteria to animals and humans, living organisms can perceive their surroundings and process, store, and retrieve this information. They learn how to respond to future situations by taking appropriate action. A group of physicists…

A team of TUM researchers has created a new early warning system for vehicles that uses artificial intelligence to learn from thousands of real-world traffic situations. The system was studied in collaboration with the BMW…
