Researchers demonstrate strain sensors for machine interface technology
Researchers have developed a stretchable strain sensor that combines sensitivity and range, allowing it to detect minor changes in strain than previous technologies.
Autonomous crawling ringbots navigate narrow gaps
Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a ring-shaped soft robot capable of pulling a small payload across the surface – in ambient air or under water, as well as passing through a gap narrower than its ring size. See video
Network pruning can skew deep learning models
North Carolina State University researchers learn that network pruning can adversely affect the performance of the model at identifying certain groups.
Formula tackles complex moral decision-making for AI
A blueprint for creating algorithms that more effectively incorporate ethical guidelines into artificial intelligence (AI) decision-making programs has been developed.
Helping autonomous vehicles navigate tricky highway merges
If autonomous vehicles are ever going to achieve widespread adoption, we need to know they are capable of navigating complex traffic situations, such as merging into heavy traffic when lanes disappear on a highway.
Approach to federated learning developed for creating AI models faster
North Carolina State University researchers have developed an approach to federated learning that allows them to develop accurate artificial intelligence (AI) models more quickly.
Twisted soft robots navigate mazes without human or computer guidance
Researchers have developed soft robots that are capable of navigating complex environments without input from humans or computer software. See video.
Self-driving lab used to improve nanocrystal understanding
Researchers have developed and demonstrated a ‘self-driving lab’ that uses AI and fluidic systems to advance understanding of metal halide perovskite (MHP) nanocrystals, which could be used to improve many different materials.
Inclusivity is key to promoting STEM education
A North Carolina State University study finds that one key to promoting STEM education is making classrooms feel more inclusive.
Multi-functional magnetic nanoparticles simulations help sensor technology
Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a computational tool that allows users to conduct simulations of multi-functional magnetic nanoparticles, which could be used in applications such as drug delivery and sensor technologies.
