Dual-use technology

Building small flying robots that move like insects has long been a challenge for engineers. Flapping-wing systems are highly agile and energy efficient, but...

Modern electronic warfare increasingly revolves around one challenge: finding signals that are designed not to be found. Advanced radar systems now use low-probability-of-intercept waveforms,...

Chronic wounds remain one of the more difficult problems in regenerative medicine. In many cases, the body fails to maintain the immune and signaling...

Most robots are designed around familiar biological forms. Engineers often model machines after humans, dogs, insects, or other animals, relying on centralized software and...

As organizations increasingly deploy AI agents, cloud workloads, and automated services, traditional identity systems are struggling to keep up. Most enterprises still manage credentials,...

Foldable structures are widely used in engineering because they can transform from compact flat sheets into larger three-dimensional forms. But most existing designs face...

Future wireless networks are expected to handle far more than faster internet speeds. Emerging 6G concepts aim to combine communications with sensing and AI-driven...

As artificial intelligence systems become more capable, governments are increasingly viewing them through the lens of national security rather than purely commercial technology. The...

Coordinating large groups of robots usually requires complex software, wireless communication, and centralized control systems. But these approaches can become fragile in unpredictable environments...

Flying autonomous drones through unpredictable environments remains one of the biggest technical challenges in robotics. In confined spaces such as collapsed buildings, industrial sites,...

GPS and other satellite navigation systems have become essential infrastructure for aviation, maritime transport, communications, and critical timing networks. When these signals are disrupted,...

As AI models become more capable, developers face a growing challenge: how to make powerful systems widely available without also increasing the risk of...

Large organizations are increasingly turning to AI to manage growing volumes of data and administrative workload. Traditional tools, such as spreadsheets, static dashboards, and...

Software developers increasingly rely on open-source repositories to accelerate development, integrate new features, and build cloud-based applications. The trust placed in these repositories is...

Spyware attacks against messaging platforms remain one of the most serious challenges in digital security. While encrypted apps are designed to protect private conversations,...

Transmitting information between underwater and airborne systems has long posed a technical challenge. Sound behaves very differently in water compared to air due to...

As software systems become more complex, identifying vulnerabilities before deployment is becoming increasingly difficult. Security teams often work separately from development workflows, reviewing code...

Last week in Tel Aviv, a workshop was held as part of the INNOFENSE program, the innovation center operated by iHLS in collaboration with...

Robots have become increasingly capable in controlled environments, but they still struggle to replicate the adaptability and precision seen in animals. Biological movement relies...

As 5G networks continue expanding into critical infrastructure, autonomous systems, and industrial environments, the demands on network security are increasing rapidly. High-speed connectivity and...

Detecting extremely weak vibrations usually requires complex electronics, amplification circuits, and continuous signal processing. Whether in microphones, environmental monitoring systems, or biomedical devices, improving...

Training helicopter pilots for wildfire missions is particularly difficult because the environment itself is constantly changing. Smoke, shifting winds, rising heat, and the interaction...
