MIT
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a private land-grant research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was chartered by the state of Massachusetts in 1861. The university was established to accelerate the industrialization of the United States.
MIT is renowned for its scientific and technical training and excellent research and is ranked among the top educational institutions in the world. MIT plays a vital role in shaping the future of undergraduate and graduate students.
New AI system gives robots ability to visualize objects using touch
We, the human beings, can easily tell how an object looks like by simply touching it, all thanks to our sense of touch, which...
A droplet walks into an electric field
In many physical processes, including cloud electrification, electrospray, and demulsification, droplets, and bubbles are exposed to electric fields and may either remain whole or...
A new algorithm can accurately predict a person’s trajectory, in real-time
MIT researchers developed an algorithm that tells robots where the humans around them are headed. The trajectory-prediction tool may help humans and robots work...
The physics of evaporation explained
Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor. the process is the primary path for water...
Separating oil out of water completely
The mechanisms for removing emulsified oil from water are complex because of the deformability and potential for coalescence and break-up of the oil droplets....
Dendrites: Neurons’ antennae are unexpectedly active in neural computation
The nervous system serves as the manager of the body since it controls the functions of every other system. It communicates with bodily systems...
Self-piloting ‘Roboats’ can automatically target and clasp onto each other
Several years ago, MIT and the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions (AMS Institute) teamed up on the “Roboat” project. The actual idea was...
Cracking open the black box of automated machine learning
For the first time, MIT scientists have developed an interactive tool that allows users to see and control how automated machine-learning systems work. Dubbed...
Wireless movement-tracking system could collect health and behavioral data
MIT scientists have taken a step forward to leverage wireless signal's (that flows around us and bouncing off our bodies) reflections with the aim...
Explosions of universe’s first stars spewed powerful jets
After the Big Bang and before the first stars ignited, the universe was a very dark and cold place. There were no galaxies, no...
MIT researcher’s new AI Model can Predict Future Risk of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide and the second most common cancer overall. In 2019, approximately 268,600 new cases of...
Ocean activity is key controller of summer monsoons
Motivated by the observations of southward ocean heat transport (OHT) in the Northern Indian Ocean during summer, scientists observed the role of ocean in...
