Learn why growing hardware teams slow down as they scale, and how aligned workflows, parallel collaboration, and real-time design visibility restore speed and momentum.
How standardized electronic identification will enable high-volume, complex drone operations.
In this episode, we explore how the mechanics of bird wings are inspiring new approaches to prevent airplanes from stalling and learn how bio-mimetic designs from nature are paving the way for innovations in aviation, enhancing stability and safety for future flights.
Taking inspiration from bird feathers, Princeton engineers have found that adding rows of flaps to a remote-controlled aircraft’s wings improves flight performance and helps prevent stalling, a condition that can jeopardize a plane’s ability to stay aloft.
TAGGED WITH space
A novel electromagnetic thruster passed an initial test in a specialized chamber at JPL. With further development, these thrusters could support human missions to the Red Planet.
Humanity's drive to explore has taken us across the solar system, with astronaut boots, various landers and rovers' wheels exploring the surfaces of several different planetary bodies.
A spacecraft that sails on light could provide new vantage point on solar eruptions that can disrupt modern electrical and navigation systems.
In space, maintenance isn't possible, so satellites must operate reliably for their entire mission. This makes fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) a critical requirement in satellite design.
