With everybody trying to go green nowadays, there is a demand for solar technology, and now the researchers at MIT have come up with some interesting tech that allows them to create solar cells thin adequate to be stuck on sheets of paper. To invent things even better, the process involves coating the piece of [...]

Who would have thought that something as natural as muscles could actually be mechanized? that was made possible thanks to researchers at MIT who used shape-memory alloys to develop a new breed of small mechanical “muscles” which are capable of changing shape when heated. These are way more efficient and possess greater torque for their [...]

Manufacturing computer chips isn’t something that you can do with your eyes closed, but (probably) in the spirit of making our lives easier, researchers at MIT have come up with a rather interesting technique which causes polymers to automatically fall into place to create an integrated circuit, effectively creating self-assembling chips. Considering the fact that [...]

The crazy folks at MIT have come up with a bunch of micro LED-equipped helicopter-robots which are capable of hovering autonomously in the sky, helping create a huge piece of floating 3D artwork. The program used to control that swarm is known as Flyfire, where it can synchronize up to hundreds of small helicopter robots [...]
