Researchers just created a biodegradable plastic using bacteria spores and thermoplastic polyurethane that could even benefit plants.
The TY-3R Air-Water Rescue Drone system was designed with maintainability in mind. Four hatches on the drone provide access for maintenance or replace batteries.
Didiok Makings envisions the TY-3R to become an integral tool for emergency responders, law enforcement agencies, and maritime organizations dedicated to safeguarding lives on water. The company has set up an after-sales department and flight test base to provide customers and operators with optimal service and training.
Researchers in China have developed a water-based battery, which is claimed to be much safer and energy-efficient than “highly flammable” non-aqueous lithium batteries.
Interestingly, the researchers say that these new batteries will be twice as energy-dense as traditional lithium-ion options. This holds the potential to revolutionize the electric vehicle industry.
Moreover, aqueous batteries use water as the solvent for electrolytes, enhancing their safety. Traditional non-aqueous lithium-ion batteries have a high energy density, but their safety is compromised due to the flammable organic electrolytes, a component that allows the battery to charge and discharge, they utilize.
Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center Company has developed the world’s first humanoid robot that can sprint at a steady speed of 3.73 mph.
RAG is being pitched as a solution of sorts to generative AI hallucinations. But there’s limits to what the technique can do.
Astronomers still don’t know what causes fast radio bursts, but they’re starting to use them to illuminate the space between galaxies.
An X-ray burst (XRB) is a violent explosion that occurs on the surface of a neutron star as it absorbs material from a companion star. During this absorption, increasing temperatures and densities on the surface of the neutron star ignite a cascade of thermonuclear reactions.
A new peptide-carrying magnetic nanoparticle described in Science Advances has resolved both biological and behavioral symptoms in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease.
A short peptide disassembles stable pathogenic tau fibrils of Alzheimer’s disease.
