Creating an Innovative, Solid, Air Working Battery

Creating an Innovative, Solid, Air Working Battery

Posted on 30 June, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: Typically, negative electrodes in batteries are made of active materials like metals. Rechargeable metal-air batteries with oxygen-reducing positive electrodes have recently used redox-active organic compounds, such as quinone- and amine-based molecules, as negative electrodes. Here, the redox reactions involve protons and hydroxide ions. These batteries operate well and are almost at their theoretical maximum capacity. Furthermore, using redox-active organic molecules in...

Enhanced 3D vision helped a four-legged robot navigate bumpy terrain

Posted on 3 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: A novel model has been created by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, that teaches four-legged robots to see in three dimensions more clearly. The development made it possible for a robot to easily and autonomously navigate difficult terrain, including rocky ground, stairways, and paths with gaps.  The scientists will present their findings at the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), which will be held in Vancouver, Canada, from June...
AI discovers flora's hidden characteristics to aid save species

AI discovers flora's hidden characteristics to aid save species

Posted on 4 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary:To research and mitigate the effects of climate change on flora, scientists from UNSW and the Sydney Botanic Gardens have trained AI to access data from millions of plant specimens maintained in herbaria around the world. Associate Professor Will Cornwell, the study's principal author, adds that herbarium collections are incredible "time capsules of plant specimens." It's no longer feasible to go through items manually because the National Herbarium of New South Wales alone...
Researchers create a cancer vaccine that will both treat and prevent brain cancer.

Researchers create a cancer vaccine that will both treat and prevent brain cancer.

Posted on 6 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: Researchers are using a novel technique to transform cancer cells into effective anti-cancer medicines. Researchers have created a new cell therapy approach to eliminate established tumours and induce long-term immunity, training the immune system to prevent cancer from recurring, in the most recent research from the lab of Khalid Shah, MS, PhD, at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system. A sophisticated mouse model of the...
Clean, sustainable fuel produced from plastic garbage

Clean, sustainable fuel produced from plastic garbage

Posted on 8 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: Researchers have shown how carbon dioxide from industrial operations or even straight from the air can be gathered and converted into sustainable, clean fuels using only solar energy. The University of Cambridge researchers created a solar-powered reactor that transforms collected CO 2  and plastic waste into renewable fuels and other useful chemical compounds. In experiments, CO 2  was transformed into syngas, an essential component of sustainable liquid fuels, and plastic...
