The aerobic microbe has been engineered at MIT and is capable of converting a variety of organic compounds into oil, from which biodiesel may be produced. The process will produce butanol and will also be able to produce ethanol The research team has a strong connection with Microbial Fuel Cell Technologies, LLC in this area of research.

A team of researchers at MIT has described a framework for efficiently coupling the power output of a series-connected string of single-band-gap solar cells to an electrochemical process that produces storable fuels. This paper performs an equivalent circuit analysis for multiple series-connected devices. Source: Winkler et al.

MIT researchers have now developed a sub-terahertz-radiation receiving system that could help steer driverless cars when traditional methods fail. Our low-cost, on-chip sub-terahertz sensors will play a complementary role to LiDAR for when the environment is rough.

He is not mistaken if Tesla or any other company can develop workable, functional, and useful robots that are widely available at a low cost, it will revolutionize nearly impossibly large areas of current economies and societies. Achieving that would result in a fundamental shift of civilization as we know it, according to Musk.

There are billions of people who have no internet connectivity at all– nothing. Or it’s like a very low bandwidth and it’s insanely expensive. MIT, for example, has all of their lectures online and a number of other universities do. For many parts of the world, this is the case–billions of people.”

A single torus wheel is made of an elastic elongated coil spring in which the two ends of the coil connected each other and is driven by a piezoelectric actuator (stator) that can generate 2-degrees-of-freedom (axial and angular) motions. We propose a palm-sized omnidirectional mobile robot with two torus wheels. Paper ] Thanks, Ayato!

But reducing the cost of these sensors to a level that would satisfy automakers has remained an elusive goal for lidar manufacturers, which must also consider how to add their devices to cars without detracting from vehicle aesthetics. We and others at our company, Analog Photonics , which spun out of MIT in 2016, hope to break this impasse.
