A new technology is showing that something as simple as radio waves—already used to track packages or find lost items—could soon help doctors monitor...

Imagine a battery that holds more energy, lasts longer, and is safer to use. Scientists from Argonne National Laboratory and University of Chicago say they...

If you've been in the market for a new hair dryer, you've likely seen advertising for ionic ones. Some claim to produce negative ions in...

Most materials we use every day—like metal, glass, or rubber—are passive. They only move or change shape when we push or pull them. But scientists...

Talking to machines has become part of everyday life. From asking Amazon Alexa for the weather to dictating messages on a phone, voice technology...

A new type of transparent film could help keep cars much cooler in hot weather—without using any electricity. Researchers from Seoul National University, working with...

A small, hard seed from Australia may help scientists design stronger and safer protective gear. Researchers at New York University Abu Dhabi have been studying...

Imagine wearing a pair of ordinary wireless earbuds that can quietly “see” what you see and answer your questions about it. Researchers at the University...

As the world moves toward renewable energy like solar and wind, the need for better and more reliable batteries is growing quickly. These energy sources...

Guide dogs have long helped people with vision loss move safely through the world. They can avoid obstacles, follow routes, and respond to commands. But...

Engineers have long tried to build artificial muscles that work like the ones in the human body—strong, flexible, fast, and easy to control. Now, a...

Hydrogen fuel cells have long been seen as a promising clean energy solution. They can produce electricity using hydrogen as fuel, with water as...

A new type of smart insole might soon help people improve their posture, avoid injuries, and even detect early signs of health conditions like...

Brain-inspired Gaussian devices based on 2D materials allow energy-efficient and probabilistic computing. While computers have become smaller and more powerful and supercomputers and parallel computing...

Unplanned discovery could lead to future pivotal discoveries in batteries, fuel cells, devices for converting heat to electricity and more. Scientists normally conduct their research...

The way we use energy at home is getting smarter, thanks to artificial intelligence (AI). With rising energy costs and growing concerns about climate change,...

Researchers at MIT have made a groundbreaking discovery that light alone can cause water to evaporate, challenging the long-held belief that heat is necessary...
