Many robots track objects by “sight” as they work with them, but optical sensors can't take in an item's entire shape when it's in the dark or partially blocked from view. Now a new low-cost technique ...

Our hands are works of art. A rigid skeleton provides structure. Muscles adjust to different weights. Our skin, embedded with touch, pressure, and temperature sensors, provides immediate feedback on ...

It was a morning full of amazement and curiosity for scores of children at the Sharjah International Book Fair (SIBF) as they ...

The interactive workshop introduced children to the art of blending science and creativity, allowing them to make 'living' ...
