Latest news of science and technology, new electronics:
Using Apple Vision Pro during surgery
16.03.2024
The medical team at Cromwell Hospital in London used Apple Vision Pro for the first time during two spinal surgeries. This event confirms the headset's potential as a medical tool that will change the way surgical practice is performed. Although the doctors themselves did not use Vision Pro, the operating room nurse worked with virtual reality using glasses while preparing and performing procedures. The headset made it possible to view virtual screens in the operating room, select instruments and monitor the progress of the operation. Software developed by eXeX, a company that specializes in creating artificial intelligence-based applications for surgery, has significantly improved the patient care process. Using Apple Vision Pro opens up new opportunities for developing healthcare applications such as clinical education, surgical planning, training and medical imaging. Implementation of Apple Vision Pro in the medical industry ... >>
Carbon storage in the North Sea
16.03.2024
Norwegian Energy Minister Terje Åsland has announced the launch of the Longship project, which aims to create a central carbon dioxide storage facility in the North Sea. This ambitious project is valued at $2,6 billion and aims to apply CCS (carbon capture and storage) technology to mitigate the impact of climate change. Norway already has experience in CCS, thanks to the successful Sleipner and Snohvit projects, and is now looking to increase the amount of carbon sealed beneath the seabed. Longship's plan calls for capacity to capture and store 1,5 million tons of carbon annually over 25 years. Despite the positive outlook, there are concerns about the long-term consequences of such storage. However, proponents of the project argue that offshore carbon storage has a number of advantages, including minimal environmental impact. The Longship project is carried out with the participation of Equinor, Shell and TotalEnergies through the joint venture Northern Li ... >>
Mini-organs grown from human amniotic fluid
15.03.2024
An international team of scientists led by Professor Fan Xiulin from Zhejiang University has developed a unique method of growing mini-organs from cells found in human amniotic fluid. This significant medical breakthrough could lead to improved diagnosis and treatment of congenital diseases. The organoids, which are three-dimensional cellular structures that mimic organs on a smaller scale, were grown from lung, kidney and small intestine cells found in amniotic fluid. This method opens up new possibilities for studying various fetal conditions and may be the key to early diagnosis and treatment of birth defects. Although no treatment has yet been attempted, the scientists hope their research will help combat the serious congenital diseases that affect millions of newborns each year. This breakthrough could change medical interventions by making it possible to diagnose and treat congenital diseases. ... >>
Random news from the Archive robot shrimp
28.03.2022
Researchers at Brown University and the National Autonomous University of Mexico have created a floating robot called RoboKrill. Its appearance was borrowed from a shrimp called krill (Euphausia superba). For smooth movement in the underwater depths, the microrobot is able to imitate the kinematics of live krill.
"Before this project, I did various researches aimed at understanding the role of plankton aggregation in the ocean. To this end, I conducted an experiment where I controlled the behavior of organisms using light signals. After that, I thought that it would be a good idea instead of externally controlling behavior of organisms, use a robotic system that has the same dynamic signature as floating living things," Monica M. Wilhelmus, one of the researchers who led the study, told TechXplore.
In the future, RoboKrill may be used by biologists and environmental scientists to remotely study the marine environment and collect scientific data at inaccessible depths. At the same time, the team does not plan to dwell on the possibility of additional modification of their robot, as well as assessing its performance in natural conditions.
“Now we will study the influence of semi-kinematic morphological features and dynamic interactions in thrust generation and optimize the important parameters to develop a simplified system that we can then scale down. Our ultimate goal is to design a small system and use it, for example, to intervene in various compact environments," Monika Wilhelmus shared her plans.
