Imagine a person on the ground guiding an airborne drone that harnesses its energy from a laser beam, eliminating the need for carrying a bulky onboard battery. That is the vision of a group of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder scientists from the Hayward Research Group . In a new study, the Department...

Imagine an iPad that’s more than just an iPad—with a surface that can morph and deform, allowing you to draw 3D designs, create haiku that jump out from the screen and even hold your partner’s hand from an ocean away. That’s the vision of a team of engineers from Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ...

Engineers at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder have designed a new, rubber-like film that can leap high into the air like a grasshopper—all on its own and without needing outside intervention. Just heat it up and watch it jump! The researchers from the College of Engineering and Applied Science describe their achievement Jan...

A team of University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ researchers has developed a new strategy for transforming medical images, such as CT or MRI scans, into incredibly detailed 3D models on the computer. The advance marks an important step toward printing lifelike representations of human anatomy that medical professionals can squish, poke and...

New research led by scientists at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder suggests that eyes may really be the window to the soul—or, at least, how humans dart their eyes may reveal valuable information about how they make decisions. The new findings offer researchers a rare opportunity in neuroscience: the chance to observe the...

A multi-university research team, including engineers and physicists from Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder, will build technology and tools to improve measurement of important climate factors by observing atoms in outer space. The new Quantum Pathways Institute is led by the University of Texas at Austin, and scientists from the University of California,...

A team of University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder researchers is embarking on a major research project that will advance our understanding of orbital mechanics and monitoring, artificial intelligence, and hypersonics. Led by Marcus Holzinger, an associate professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences, the group has...

Allie Anderson and Torin Clark at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder are conducting research into how humans and artificial intelligence systems work together. The pair are part of a multi-university research team commissioned by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research to study trust in autonomous systems. It is an important and complex...
