AI shapes autonomous underwater "gliders"

An AI pipeline developed by CSAIL researchers enables unique hydrodynamic designs for bodyboard-sized vehicles that glide underwater and could help scientists gather marine data.

Maneuverable underwater vehicles inspired by golf balls

A spherical prototype with "nimble dimples" can change its surface from smooth to dimpled, cutting through drag and generating lift.

Industrial Object Detection with Long-Range, Wide-Angle Time-of-Flight Sensing: OMRON E3AS-HF

Conventional photoelectric sensors used for object detection and distance measurement can struggle with dark, glossy, or irregular targets because they rely on light intensity. Time-of-flight laser sensors overcome these challenges by using distance-based sensing instead.
