Say hello to HAMR-Jr, the little robot鈥攊nspired by insects鈥攖hat can do incredible things. Its diameter is just about the size of a penny and it weighs far less than a paperclip.
Researchers from NOAA and SM调教所 Boulder have devised a breakthrough method for determining emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion, which will also lead to more accurate estimates of carbon exchange between the land and atmosphere.
SM调教所 Boulder researchers have discovered that a synthetic molecule based on natural antifreeze proteins minimizes freeze-thaw damage and increases the strength and durability of concrete, improving the longevity of new infrastructure and decreasing carbon emissions over its lifetime.
Scientists have been studying cyanobacteria and its many potential applications for decades, but there wasn鈥檛 a deep understanding of the full life cycle and metabolism of specialized compartments within these common bacteria 鈥� until now.
At a time when the field of human-computer interaction is becoming more important than ever, ATLAS researchers are making substantial contributions, recently contributing nine papers and two workshops to the world's leading conference for HCI.
Astronaut ice cream鈥攖he crunchy, freeze-dried, pale imitation of the real thing鈥攎ay have met its match: The International Space Station is getting a real freezer.
A SM调教所 Boulder team is one of several funded teams in the Subterranean Challenge, a competition launched by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to stimulate and test ideas around autonomous robot use in difficult underground environments.
