Nature is filled with remarkable visual phenomena created by microscopic surface structures that interact with light in ...

This smart power bank for portable electronics integrates a photovoltaic input with other power-supply sources and battery ...

Abstract: This paper considers the design of multi-target jamming waveforms with a digital array in the presence of array imperfections. To this end, we formulate a ...

We use heuristics to solve computationally difficult problems where optimal solutions are too expensive to deploy, hard to manage, or otherwise inefficient. Our prior work, MetaOpt, shows many of the ...

Modern seismic codes ensure life safety, but code-compliant buildings can still suffer significant economic losses from earthquake-induced damage, even during moderate events. Performance-Based ...

Emergent robotics solutions, from vision guidance and mobile autonomous robots to swarm robots, are proving to be vital to the industrial automation space. Robotics are demonstrating value in diverse ...

Abstract: While control barrier functions provide a powerful tool to endow controllers with formal safety guarantees, robust control barrier functions (RCBF) can be used to extend these guarantees for ...

In this roundup, we explore articles that dive into AI's current and future roles in architecture and design. They address the ways AI assists in generating concepts and democratizing the design ...

Scandinavian design can best be encapsulated by “its appreciation for natural materials (especially beautiful woods) and the simplicity of its forms,” 1stDibs editorial director Anthony ...

Two things are immediately notable when watching the Carter Pro robot navigate the aisles of the demo warehouse inside Robust AI’s San Carlos, California, headquarters. The first is the shelving units ...
