National Recovery Technologies (NRT), Nashville, Tennessee, has added the ColorPlus- R to the company’s product offering. Similar to the ColorPlus, the ColorPlus-R uses an image processing system to ...
EPFL’s 3D printer is one of the fastest in the world. Whereas most 3D printers work by depositing a material layer by layer in a process known as additive manufacturing, the EPFL one uses a volumetric ...

Scientists develop matrix that works like fingerprint scanner to detect hidden objects
Their approach uses what they call a “fingerprint matrix,” a mathematical description of the unique way each object scatters ...
The new technique generates an image (top right) from the speckle pattern created when light from the coloured numerals (top left) is scattered by the mostly opaque surface in the middle. (Courtesy: M ...
PITTSBURGH--Kitchen robots are a popular vision of the future, but if a robot of today tries to grasp a kitchen staple such as a clear measuring cup or a shiny knife, it likely won't be able to.
An innovative new way to focus beams of neutrons might allow scientists to probe the interiors of opaque objects at a size range they were blind to previously, allowing them to explore the innards of ...
While this system works well enough on relatively dull opaque objects, it has problems with transparent items that much of the light passes through, or shiny objects that scatter the reflected light.
Can we reveal objects that are hidden in environments completely opaque to the human eye? With conventional imaging ...
Robots have got pretty good at picking up objects. But give them something shiny or clear, and the poor droids will likely lose their grip. Not ideal if you want a kitchen robot that can slice you a ...
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have been able to teach robots to pick up transparent or reflective objects. This has been a challenge for robots in the past, and the way researchers have ...
