Using artificial intelligence to accelerate spray-on solar cell technology

Imagine being able to spray or paint bridges, houses and skyscrapers with the material, which would then capture light, turn it into energy and feed it into the electrical grid. That’s where this technology is going thanks to UCF. Artificial Intelligence may be just the thing to accelerate spray-on solar cell technology, which could revolutionize

What do robots know? Soldiers get help from scientists to find out

An Army-led research team developed new algorithms and filled in knowledge gaps about how robots contribute to teams and what robots know about their environment and teammates. Dr. Kristin Schaefer-Lay, an engineer with the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Army Research Laboratory, is part of a multidisciplinary team of researchers from the Army, Carnegie

What does it take for a human to trust a robot?

What does it take for a human to trust a robot? That is what Army researchers are uncovering in a new study into how humans and robots work together. Research into human-agent teaming, or HAT, has examined how the transparency of agents–such as robots, unmanned vehicles or software agents–influences human trust, task performance, workload and

A new sensor can detect brain disorders in seconds

Using nanotechnology, UCF researchers have developed the first rapid detector for dopamine, a chemical that is believed to play a role in various diseases such as Parkinson’s, depression and some cancers. Studies show too much dopamine could be associated with some cancers, while low dopamine could be associated with Parkinson’s disease and depression. The new

Steam-powered microwave-size spacecraft prototype can theoretically explore celestial objects “forever”

By using steam rather than fuel, the microwave-size spacecraft prototype can theoretically explore celestial objects “forever.” Using steam to propel a spacecraft from asteroid to asteroid is now possible, thanks to a collaboration between a private space company and the University of Central Florida. UCF planetary research scientist Phil Metzger worked with Honeybee Robotics of Pasadena, California,

Seeing around corners via a new understanding of light

Covert sensing of objects around a corner may soon become a reality. Aristide Dogariu, a University of Central Florida Pegasus Professor of Optics and Photonics, and his colleagues published a paper in Nature Communications this month demonstrating how to passively sense an object even when direct vision is impeded. It’s a bit complicated, but the new sensing
