Student experiment takes flight on Canadian Space Agency balloon

September 18, 2025 by Geordie Torr

A student design team from the University of Waterloo in Ontario has seen their work soar into near-space during the Canadian Space Agency’s Strato-Science 2025 campaign in Timmins. The experiment designed by the Waterloo Space Research Team (WSRT), Project ASTRA, was selected for the Canadian Stratospheric Balloon Experiment Design Challenge (CAN-SBX), a national … [Read more...] about Student experiment takes flight on Canadian Space Agency balloon

Georgia Tech team designing robot guide dog to assist the visually impaired

September 18, 2025 by Geordie Torr

A research team in Georgia Institute of Technology’s School of Interactive Computing is developing a robotic guide dog designed for visually impaired people who can’t afford or care for a service animal. Before launching its prototype, the research team, led by Professor Bruce Walker and Assistant Professor Sehoon Ha, is working to improve its methods and designs based on … [Read more...] about Georgia Tech team designing robot guide dog to assist the visually impaired

AI produces shape-morphing materials in minutes

September 16, 2025 by Geordie Torr

Researchers at Northwestern University in Illinois have used a combination of AI and 3D printing to develop materials that can reshape themselves in response to external factors, acting as if they have the built-in intelligence of living organisms. The new method developed by Wei Chen, the Wilson-Cook professor in engineering design, and Ryan Truby, the June and Donald … [Read more...] about AI produces shape-morphing materials in minutes

Engineers create mini microscope for real-time brain imaging

September 15, 2025 by Geordie Torr

Researchers at the University of California, Davis, have created a miniaturised microscope for real-time, high-resolution, non-invasive imaging of brain activity in mice, which they describe as a significant step toward revolutionising how neuroscientists study the brain. ‘What we are doing is creating technology to image brain activity in freely moving and behaving mice to … [Read more...] about Engineers create mini microscope for real-time brain imaging

Boeing cuts solar array production time in half using new 3D-printing approach

September 12, 2025 by Geordie Torr

Boeing has unveiled a 3D‑printed solar array substrate approach that shortens composite build times by up to six months on a typical solar array wing programme from print to final assembly. This represents a production improvement of up to half when compared to current cycle times. Flight‑representative hardware has completed engineering testing and is progressing through … [Read more...] about Boeing cuts solar array production time in half using new 3D-printing approach
