At the same time that America’s ability to manufacture and build has atrophied, its advantage in so-called “Deep Technologies” has exploded. Technology Briefing Muscle-powered robotic is energy efficient. It can also perform high jumps and fast movements as well as detect and react to obstacles without complex sensors. Technology Briefing Production of metals with low thermal expansion, called Invar, are critical for the aerospace, cryogenic transport, energy, and precision instrument sectors. Technology Briefing The gap between computing demand and supply is growing. We are seeing a revolution due to the development of deep artificial neural networks. Technology Briefing Researchers have created a potential alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastic made from carbon dioxide, plus lignin, a component of wood. Technology Briefing Robots are becoming more agile and wearable electronics' traditional silicon-based sensors won’t make the cut in many applications. Technology Briefing Buildings made of 3D-printed concrete offer quick construction, possible use of recycled materials, reduced labor costs and less waste. Technology Briefing Imagine a portable 3D printer you could hold in your palm. The tiny device could enable a user to rapidly create customized, low-cost objects on the go. Technology Briefing Researchers incorporated machine learning into the brain-computer interface. This solution can understand the needs of a subject and self-calibrate. Technology Briefing Experts believe robots will be able to cost-effectively perform a large share of physical tasks which, until now, have been performed only by humans. Technology Briefing |
