Expert says nanotechnology should look to Mother Nature
Professor Richard Jones of the University of Sheffield has today outlined the possibilities of using nature's secrets to develop nanotechnology, and casts doubt on some popular assumptions about the science, including the premise that we may create nano-robots with the power to reduce the world to 'grey goo'. Professor Jones is internationally... view more... (2004-08-11)
Inside a quantum dot: Tracking electrons at trillionths of a second
Researchers at the EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) have developed a new machine that can reveal how electrons behave inside a single nano-object. view more (2005-11-28)
The ecological carton for 2005
ISURPAK has announced that it will have the first packaging machine for its ecological carton by the middle of 2005. The first prototype is to be developed by a consortium in which the engineering group IDOM is participating. This first machine will be able to fill 25 packs per minute - particularly suitable for small- and medium-sized production... view more... (2004-09-08)

University Of Surrey Awarded £8.8m EPSRC Grant
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has recognised and rewarded UniS' commitment to industrially focussed research and training with an £8.8m grant. The 30% increase in revenue, the maximum increase allowed, will fund a new Collaborative Training Account (CTA) to continue UniS' world-class research and training... view more... (2004-07-22)
Toward world's smallest radio: nano-sized detector turns radio waves into music
Researchers report development of the world's first working radio system that receives radio waves wirelessly and converts them to sound signals through a nano-sized detector made of carbon nanotubes. view more (2007-10-18)
Live recordings of cell communication
A new advanced method for nano-scale imaging of vesicle-fusion - vesicles are biological nano-sized containers - could add to our understanding of diseases of the nervous system and viral infections. view more (2009-08-06)
TU Delft starts new course: Media & Knowledge Technology
In September 2001 TU Delft will start a new course in media and knowledge technology. The course is about the communication between man and machine. Students will learn how they can use text, speech, video and other media types in communications design. The course relates to the recent developments in internet and mobile communication, and to the... view more... (2001-03-30)
Martin Bell MP to Launch New Machine Designed to Take on the Most Impossible Mine Fields
Martin Bell MP is to make a special visit to the University of Warwick on Monday 6th July to launch a new machine designed to take on some of the toughest mine fields in the world and help return those mined areas to agricultural use by the local people. Called Tempest the sturdy car sized machine is designed to take on almost impossibly... view more... (1998-06-28)
Virginia Tech researcher reports nano-particle dispersion technique improves polymers
There is a lot of excitement about incorporating nano particles into polymers because of the ability to improve various properties with only a small percent of the particles. view more (2005-08-30)
VTT technology helps in the assembly of microscopic components
Nowadays, micro-sized components that are invisible to the human eye are already being used both in electronics products and elsewhere. Components range from a millimetre to a micrometre in size and are getting even smaller. VTT has developed a unique prototype machine viewer system for use in the assembly and quality inspection of parts in this... view more... (2001-12-05)
Controversial "beating heart" method proves better than standard procedure
Patients needing second-time or "re-do" heart surgery have a new safer alternative. New findings show that an "off-pump" surgical procedure is performed safely and has improved outcomes for patients than traditional methods. view more (2004-09-26)
Machine vision can assist
Machine vision provides a unique capability for understanding human actions. Based on a passive sensing technology, it allows for the coverage of large areas with a single sensor, without need for physical contact. Professor Matti Pietik'¤inen is in charge of the machine vision research team whose aim it is to equip the environment with several... view more... (2005-04-07)
'Beating' heart machine expedites research and development of new surgical tools, techniques
A new machine developed at North Carolina State University makes an animal heart pump much like a live heart after it has been removed from the animal's body, allowing researchers to expedite the development of new tools and techniques for heart surgery. view more (2009-05-12)
Technological competence not sufficient for success in the digital gaming machine industry
The shift from electromechanical to digital technology generated a lot of opportunities for the gaming industry, but it simultaneously created a new set of prerequisites for success. view more (2009-03-03)
Nanomicroscopy reveals the collective transport of gold atoms in real-time
Researchers at Delft University of Technology used a High Resolution Electron Microscope to observe in real-time the collective transportation of gold atoms in a thin layer. view more (2007-02-06)
UCLA chemists create nano valve
UCLA chemists have created the first nano valve that can be opened and closed at will to trap and release molecules. The discovery, federally funded by the National Science Foundation, will be published July 19 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2005-07-18)
Molecule tracking reveals mechanism of chromosome separation in dividing cells
University of Washington (UW) researchers are helping to write the operating manual for the nano-scale machine that separates chromosomes before cell division. view more (2009-03-09)
U-M research: New plastic is strong as steel, transparent
By mimicking a brick-and-mortar molecular structure found in seashells, University of Michigan researchers created a composite plastic that's as strong as steel but lighter and transparent. view more (2007-10-05)
Controlling civil engineering machinery using satellite
EUREKA project E! 2294 IMAGIN - the "Integrated MAchine Guidance INstruments" - uses satellite navigation to automatically control civil engineering machines with incredible accuracy and over tens of kilometres.
