Contact Lens Uses Microfluidics to Monitor and Treat Glaucoma

Chemically purifying lithium-ion battery electrolytes offers a more sustainable path than current disposal methods, according to a new study from Czech Technical University in Prague

Tracking heat with thermal cameras and using smart 3D simulations can rapidly predict when vibrating steel parts will fail, massively cutting testing time

Engineers create "neurobots": tiny, free-swimming assemblages of living cells that organize into self-directed systems, complete with neurons that wire themselves into functional circuits

Researchers turn recovered car battery acid and plastic waste into clean hydrogen: « Researchers have developed a solar-powered reactor to break down hard-to-recycle forms of plastic waste using acid recovered from old car batteries

A 3D network of biological neurons enmeshed with microscopic electrodes was trained to distinguish between patterns of electrical pulses using neural networking techniques [Nature Electronics]

Scientists developed a way of analyzing the vibrations of existing fiber cables buried underground alongside railway tracks to successfully identify a number of issues associated with train safety, including faulty train wheels and broken sound barriers

Researchers have developed a prototype electronics-free smart contact lens that can track glaucoma in real time and deliver drugs in response

Batteries’ electrode particles move more like shooting stars or meteors, researchers find, overturning the long held assumption that they remain relatively stable throughout a battery’s life

Software engineering may no longer be a lifetime career
