Flexible Electronics

Emergency responders and humanitarian agencies often struggle with the same issue: how to deploy sturdy, lightweight shelters quickly in disaster zones where transport is...

New scientific findings have the potential to lead to greater stretchability and tear-resistance in stretchable electronics materials replacing rigid circuit boards. This field of...

Handling irregular, delicate, or heavy objects remains a persistent challenge for both industrial automation and frontline operations. Conventional grippers rely on rigid claws or...

Launching and retrieving drones normally requires a stationary platform, clear airspace, and operators with line-of-sight control. These constraints limit how quickly drones can be...

Engineers at the University of Delaware are revolutionizing human health monitoring using clothing- or more precisely- using nanomaterial-based sensors embedded in clothing, called "Henswear." The team,...

Robots are increasingly expected to operate in confined and complex environments, from industrial machinery to medical procedures inside the human body. Traditional robotic arms,...

The push toward more sustainable drone designs has introduced a less obvious technical challenge: materials matter. While bamboo offers clear advantages as a lightweight,...

Researchers from the Department of Chemistry at UNIST reached a milestone in sustainable wearable devices. The team’s revolutionary method enables closed-loop recycling of organic electronic...

iHLS and the Ministry of Defense invite you to join the fifth cycle of INNOFENSE and receive a remarkable opportunity to showcase your technology...

Robots intended for complex natural environments face a familiar problem: rigid bodies and fixed-color surfaces make them easy to detect and limit their ability...

A South Korean research team has developed a new type of robotic actuator that replicates the movement of human muscles using a thin, flexible...

Flexible solar cells are hailed as the future of solar power and have many potential applications in aerospace and flexible electronics, but their low...

The widespread use of small UAVs in both the military and industry has been limited to-date by the factor of endurance. To fly all...

Specializing in C4ISTAR, intelligence, cybersecurity and HLS solutions, TSG IT Advanced Systems is one of the leading sponsors of the coming Security and HLS...

A Shape-shifting aircraft might be within reach thanks to a groundbreaking new alloy developed by researchers at the National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS)...

In a breakthrough that merges traditional ceramics with cutting-edge technology, researchers at Empa’s Laboratory for High-Performance Ceramics are reshaping the future of robotics and...

Long-range strike capabilities often face a trade-off between endurance, precision, and survivability. Systems that can reach distant targets may depend heavily on satellite navigation,...

Robots are often limited by the very components that power them. Traditional electric motors provide strength and precision, but they also add weight, rigidity,...

Humanoid robots are often promoted as versatile helpers, but in real-world conditions they remain constrained by rigid frames and limited mobility. Tight spaces, uneven...

Chinese researchers have unveiled a new biomimetic underwater robot designed to operate almost invisibly beneath the surface. Modelled after a jellyfish, the transparent robot...

Robots intended to work alongside people or operate in confined, unpredictable environments need actuators that can bend, twist, and conform in ways that traditional...

Modern militaries continue to search for reconnaissance tools that can operate where drones and ground robots struggle — inside collapsed buildings, narrow tunnels or...
