    Intelligent swarm Working in a team is also relevant for drones

    Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, are omnipresent and have grown in popularity due to their wide potential use in many civilian sectors. Equipped with sophisticated sensors and communication devices, drones can potentially form a multi-UAV system, also called swarm. Scientists from the Helmholtz Institute Freiberg for Resource Technology and the Center for…

    Research team develops innovative method for measuring the conductivity of smart textiles

    The Leibniz Institute in Jena, the Philipps University of Marburg and Brown University in the USA have jointly developed a method for precisely measuring the electrical conductivity of thin layers on smart textiles. This allows coatings to be analysed without contact and material defects to be quickly identified. The results have been published in the…

    The immersive collaboration hub by FernUniversity Hagen – the Future of learning an working

    The immersive collaboration hub by Disanzlearning University of Hagen should be a place on which the future of learning and working will be an experience. On this place meet-up modern technologies like Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR) and Artificial Inteligence (AI). In centrum from ICH (Immersive collaboration Hub), that is actually…

  • Affordable bioprinting tissue at the touch of a button

    Affordable bioprinting tissue at the touch of a button

    Printing a living tissue construct with a 3D printer from the electronics store? Until now, this was impossible. Bioprinting required expensive specialised equipment. Researchers have now succeeded in modifying a simple 3D printer so that it can create biological structures at the touch of a button. This is an opportunity for small laboratories to conduct…
