Bringing in the Light: How New Windows and Doors Can Transform Your Space

November 23, 2023 by Mark Allinson

Natural lighting is key to creating a healthy home environment. It helps improve mood, regulate circadian rhythms, and keep us alert and focused throughout our daily tasks.

Large window openings fill spaces with sunlight for an open and airy vibe, creating the feeling that spaces are more expansive and brighter. Picture windows, awning windows and bay windows all serve as stunning focal points in any space they are featured in.

Washington university scientists build tiny, self-driving robot powered only by light and radio waves

October 12, 2023 by David Edwards

Small mobile robots carrying sensors could perform tasks like catching gas leaks or tracking warehouse inventory. But moving robots demands a lot of energy, and batteries, the typical power source, limit lifetime and raise environmental concerns.

Researchers have explored various alternatives: affixing sensors to insects, keeping charging mats nearby, or powering the robots with lasers. Each has drawbacks. Insects roam. Chargers limit range. Lasers can burn people’s eyes.

Researchers at the University of Washington have now created MilliMobile, a tiny, self-driving robot powered only by surrounding light or radio waves. [Read more…] about Washington university scientists build tiny, self-driving robot powered only by light and radio waves

Robotic pollinator: A fairy-like robot flies by the power of wind and light

February 8, 2023 by Mark Allinson

The loss of pollinators, such as bees, is a huge challenge for global biodiversity and affects humanity by causing problems in food production. At Tampere University, researchers have now developed the first passively flying robot equipped with artificial muscle. Could this artificial fairy be utilised in pollination?

The development of stimuli-responsive polymers has brought about a wealth of material-related opportunities for next-generation small-scale, wirelessly controlled soft-bodied robots.

For some time now, engineers have known how to use these materials to make small robots that can walk, swim and jump. So far, no one has been able to make them fly.

Researchers of the Light Robots group at Tampere University are now researching how to make smart material fly. Hao Zeng, Academy Research Fellow and the group leader, and Jianfeng Yang, a doctoral researcher, have come up with a new design for their project called FAIRY – Flying Aero-robots based on Light Responsive Materials Assembly. They have developed a polymer-assembly robot that flies by wind and is controlled by light. [Read more…] about Robotic pollinator: A fairy-like robot flies by the power of wind and light
