The lotus effect has inspired many types of liquid repelling surfaces, but tiny water droplets stick to lotus leaf structures. Now, researchers at Penn State have developed the first nano/mi... Read more
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE REALM OF POSSIBILITIES
NEW IDEAS
- Cryopreservation for organs moves closer
- Going ‘fishing’ with superparamagnetic nanoparticles to remove PFAS or other contaminants easily from polluted water
- Sound absorbing wallpaper?
- A novel wearable chemical sensor for on-body chemical analysis
- A camera system that can see vibrations can reconstruct the music of a single instrument in a band or orchestra
- A wearable textile exomuscle that serves as an extra layer of muscles
- Revolutionize virtual reality and 3D printing by levitating objects with sound
- Could sustainable development speed up with the help of robotics and autonomous systems?
- Using artificial photosynthesis approaches to produce food without sunlight
- A biomass-derived plastic similar to PET that meets the criteria for replacing several current plastics
