Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyze data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making
In large-scale warehousing and distribution operations, conveyor belts are an essential infrastructure that must operate with near-zero downtime to ensure the timely delivery of products. The presence of loose or foreign items on a conveyor belt can pose a serious risk to these operations.
To reduce waste, the Refashion program helps users create outlines for adaptable clothing, such as pants that can be reconfigured into a dress. Each component of these pieces can be replaced, rearranged, or restyled.
Smart eyewear promises to transform how we see and interact with the world. Among its many potential advantages, the technology offers hands-free access to information, vision enhancement, and accessibility tools.
Matroid builds no-code computer-vision detectors that can spot everything from microscopic material defects to real-time safety hazards on a factory floor.
In large-scale warehousing and distribution operations, conveyor belts are an essential infrastructure that must operate with near-zero downtime to ensure the timely delivery of products. The presence of loose or foreign items on a conveyor belt can pose a serious risk to these operations.
In this post, we'll walk through how to evaluate that progress using the same metrics our platform provides automatically, so you can build detectors that get smarter, sharper, and more reliable over time.
The no-code platform from Matroid trains ordinary cameras to act like expert inspectors, turning simple footage into a pixel-level defect checklist. Even a handheld GoPro can spot issues human eyes miss—using remarkably small datasets.
A new machine-learning model makes more accurate predictions about ocean currents, which could help with tracking plastic pollution and oil spills, and aid in search and rescue.
Researchers have designed a low-cost, energy-efficient robotic hand that can grasp a range of objects – and not drop them – using just the movement of its wrist and the feeling in its ‘skin’.
Scientists at EPFL have developed PeSTo, an AI model that can predict, with high confidence, the binding interfaces of proteins when they bind other proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, ions, and small molecules. The model's low computational cost enables the processing of large amounts of structural data, opening up opportunities for new biological discoveries.
Researchers report the first demonstration of two-dimensional particles, called non-Abelian anyons, that are the key ingredient for realizing topological quantum computing, a promising method of introducing fault resistance to quantum computing.
Let us delve into the profound impact that generative AI may have on employment, exploring both the opportunities it creates and the challenges it presents, as we strive to shape a world where human ingenuity and machine intelligence can coexist harmoniously.
Automation uncovers combinations of amino acids that feed two bacterial species and could tell us much more about the 90% of bacteria that humans have hardly studied.
Elythor, an EPFL spin-off, has developed a new drone whose wing shape can adapt to wind conditions and flight position in real time, reducing the drone’s energy consumption. What’s more, the position of the wings can change, allowing the drone to fly vertically or horizontally. These features make it a perfect candidate for inspecting power plants.
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in everyday life, concerns have grown around bias in its programming. Many of the tasks performed by AI are simple and innocuous, but as its capabilities expand, so does its potential for wide-ranging impact.
Article #5 of Transforming Industrial Manufacturing with Industry 4.0 Series: The next evolution of AR in manufacturing comes by pairing it with AI, allowing for seamless information access and tracking of specific surfaces/points of interest in real-time.
Columbia Engineers design a robot hand that is the first device of its kind to join advanced sense of touch with motor-learning algorithms — it doesn’t rely on vision to manipulate objects
