(Phys.org) —Researchers from the ETH Zurich's Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control have developed the Cubli, a device that can walk, jump, and balance itself on a corner. The name "Cubli" is derived from the English ...
Saad Bhamla was in his backyard when he noticed something he had never seen before: an insect urinating. Although nearly impossible to see, the insect formed an almost perfectly round droplet on its tail and then launched ...

(Phys.org)—Anyone who follows the latest in robot technology is almost certainly familiar with Boston Dynamics' AlphaDog, the mechanical pack mule and descendant of the original Big Dog built at the behest of DARPA. It's ...
(Phys.org) —The word "kite" at the Delft University of Technology hardly means summertime fun and recreation. Rather, scientists see "kite" as an important airborne wind technology, with advantages lacking in wind turbines. ...
(Phys.org)—Accurately determining the relative percentages of the elements comprising the Earth's core and mantle which formed early – that is, within 30 Ma (megaannum, or million years) after the solar system itself ...
NUS mathematicians have developed a new theoretical framework based on dynamical systems to understand when and how a deep neural network can learn arbitrary relationships.
