A new bio-inspired sensor can recognise moving objects in a single frame from a video and successfully predict where they will move to. This smart sensor, described in a Nature Communications paper, ...

Researchers have succeeded in directing floating objects around an aquatic obstacle course using only soundwaves. Their novel, optics-inspired method holds great promise for biomedical applications ...

Robot collective Magnetic microrobot swarms act as motors to move millimetre-sized passive objects without physical contact. (Courtesy: MPI-IS) Strong viscous interactions exist in microscale systems, ...
