I'm not touching you! When another person's finger hovers over your skin, you may get the sense that they're touching you, feeling not necessarily contact, but their proximity.

The study features the new sensor technology to detect eyelash proximity in blink-tracking glasses.

Так получилось, что я регулярно общаюсь со студентами различных ВУЗов Иркутска. И последние годы постоянно получаю вопросы, связанные с использованием ИИ в разработке ПО.

The capital cost for such a truck, and the MW-scale infrastructure to recharge it, may be a hard sell for some operators.

Engineers at a deep underground research facility noticed something strange during major rainstorms: airflow underground sometimes reversed direction. Using new sensors and mathematical modeling, they found that water rushing down a shaft was effectively pushing air through the tunnels like a giant piston. The breakthrough explains a long-standing mystery and could help underground operations better predict and manage ventilation during storms and emergencies. Read more ›

Archaeological evidence suggests Neanderthal groups may have followed traditions where women moved between communities, opening the door to far more complicated explanations than simple...
