Harvard & MIT create first self-assembling robots the first real Transformers
2014-08-08 17:00:40| Extremetech
Harvard and MIT engineers, showing reckless disregard for the robocalypse, have created origami robots that can self-assemble themselves -- from a flat piece of paper and polystyrene -- and walk away in just four minutes. "Getting a robot to assemble itself autonomously and actually perform a function has been a milestone weve been chasing for many years," says Harvard's Robert Wood, barely stifling a maniacal cackle.
MIT can now eavesdrop through soundproof glass by watching the vibrations of a bag of chips
2014-08-07 14:01:19| Extremetech
With a breakthrough that sounds more like the plot from the latest instalment of James bond than an academic research paper, engineers at MIT have managed to recover speech by analyzing the tiny vibrations of a potato chip bag from 15 feet away -- with a video camera watching through soundproof glass. There are some obvious security and forensics repercussions from this work, but other interesting uses will surely emerge (such as recovering audio from silent film, perhaps?)
