Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising candidate to replace internal combustion engines, especially for heavy-duty vehicles like long-haul trucks and forklifts. Rather than burning fuel, the hydrogen reacts with oxygen to produce electricity much like a battery, while creating no carbon dioxide emissions.

Pick up a button mushroom from the supermarket and it squishes easily between your fingers. Snap a woody bracket mushroom off a tree trunk and you'll struggle to break it. Both extremes grow from the same microscopic building blocks: hyphae—hair-thin tubes made mostly of the natural polymer chitin, a tough compound also found in crab shells.

22 h. ago Robot hand 'feels' pain and ignores harmless touch with new sensory system

In the midst of the co-development of artificial intelligence and robotic advancements, developing technologies that enable robots to efficiently perceive and respond to their surroundings like humans has become a crucial task. In this context, Korean researchers are gaining attention for newly implementing an artificial sensory nervous system that mimics the sensory nervous system of living organisms without the need for separate complex software or circuitry. This breakthrough technology is expected to be applied in fields such as in ultra-small robots and robotic prosthetics, where intelligent and energy-efficient responses to external stimuli are essential.

Drawing inspiration from the venous ears of jackrabbits and elephants, Drexel University researchers have come up with a new approach to passive heating and cooling that could one day make buildings more energy efficient. Their concept, recently published in the Journal of Building Engineering, embeds a vascular network within cement-based building materials that, when filled with paraffin-based material, can help passively regulate the surface temperature of walls, floors and ceilings.
