Researchers have come out with an optical device to "engineer" ghosts. Their research has opened up a completely new avenue for cognitive deception through light-matter behavior control. This would ...

Undeniably fun: Now one new additive-manufacturing printer scans objects and makes copies on the fly. Announced late last week at South by Southwest, MakerBot's Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner turns ...

Scientists are pushing the limits of 3-D printing with these shape-shifting materials NBC: Jim McGuffin-Cawley, interim dean of the Case School of Engineering and the Arthur S. Holden Professor of ...

Miniaturized electronics and intricate objects require a certain finesse. Researchers have looked into the development of a ...

Abstract: Design has been called one of the defining characteristics of engineering, and it has been long-argued that design is equally social and technical in practice. The field of Science and ...

Too cool and faint, many objects in the universe are impossible to detect with visible light. Now a McCormick team has refined a new technology that could make these colder objects more visible, ...

In recent years, it has become possible to use laser beams and electron beams to 'print' engineering objects with complex shapes that could not be achieved by conventional manufacturing. The additive ...

A nightmarish robot with Venus flytraps for hands that can trap objects in its jaw-like leaves — and then pick them up — has been developed by scientists. Engineers from Singapore used tiny ...
