We would all like to think we know when someone is lying to us—but do we? Faster speech rate, greater intensity in the middle of the word, and falling pitch at the end of the word: that is the prosody (think melody) to use if you want to…

Complex calculations that could take up to 20 years on a powerful desktop computer are now accomplished in a mere hour on a regular laptop using a new method to calculate atomic nuclei properties incredibly quickly. Physicist Andreas…

A major challenge for brain researchers is interpreting the results of electroencephalogram (EEG) graphs used to visualize brain activity of everything from meditation to neurological disorders. Although machine learning can be used, EEG…

ResearchAndMarkets just added a report: "5G and Robotics Market in Industrial Automation: Teleoperation, Cloud Robotics, and Beyond 5G Technologies". This research evaluates 5G’s outlook, as well as looks beyond 5G. It provides analysis…

Eye movement is key to virtual and amplified reality technologies (VR/AR). A team from MSU together with a RUDN University professor developed a mathematical model to accurately predict the next gaze fixation point, reducing inaccuracy…

Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) researchers have proposed a detailed plan of how faster and better-defined quantum bits—qubits—can be created. The researchers demonstrated how the qubits can be activated, entangled, used as memory bits,…

Range anxiety may finally be a thing of the past. A team of Penn State engineers is looking at lithium iron phosphate batteries with a range of 250 miles and the ability to charge in 10 minutes. According to Chao-Yang Wang, William E.…

The University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory achieved a first-of-its-kind scientific control. They demonstrated real-time control of the…

Columbia University School of Engineering and Applied Science engineers created a robot that can visually predict how a partner robot will behave—and the result is a smidgeon of empathy. Columbia’s “Robot Theory of Mind" concept predicts…

In quantum computing, entanglement is the method used to fuse individual quantum systems into one, which exponentially increases their total computational capacity. Scientists from Finland, Russia, China, and the USA demonstrated that…
