Researchers at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a pollen-based paper that can be ‘erased’ and reused multiple times without damage. Published in Advanced Materials, the team’s research demonstrated how high-resolution colour images could be printed on the non-allergenic pollen paper with a laser printer, then ‘unprinted’ by completely removing the toner without […]

Bristol Robotics Laboratory researchers have developed a 3D printed fingertip that creates signals similar to brain activity associated with human touch.   Replicating fine tactile sense is one of robotics’ biggest challenges, with artificial grippers and prosthetics generally failing to replicate the delicate motor skills exhibited by people. Led by Professor Nathan Lepora, the latest […]
