AI system better assesses bridge structural health with existing sensors

by

A new system to assess the structural health of bridges using AI and an array of sensors is being developed by a team at the University of Texas at Arlington. Modern bridges are typically built with weight-in-motion systems including sensors that measure vibrations, strain and deflection. By measuring the bridge’s response to these elements, they … Read more

Artificial skin developed that feels pain

by

A team at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia developed the prototype which they say can electronically replicate the way human skin senses pain. The device mimics the body’s near-instant feedback response and can react to painful sensations with the same lighting speed that nerve signals travel to the brain. Lead researcher Professor Madhu Bhaskaran said … Read more
