- When robots see red
- We use all of our senses to interact with our environment. Our brain and our body work together, but are robots designed in a similar way? An Indiana University neuroscientist and a University of Tokyo roboticist have worked together with real and simulated robots to verify that valid information doesn't...

- Give your computer the sense of touch
- Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University CMU have developed a new haptic interface using magnetic levitation to give computer users the sense of touch. Unlike current haptic systems, this new device doesn't use gloves or robotic arms. It uses 'magnetic levitation and a single moving part to give users a highly...

- Drawing on air
- In a recent article, PhysOrg.com reports that a team of computer scientists at Brown University has developed Drawing on Air, a haptic-aided interface to help artists to create 3D illustrations while wearing a virtual reality mask. 'The technique introduces two new strategies, using one hand or two hands, to give...

- An Energy-Efficient Reconfigurable Baseband Processor for Wireless Communications
- The popularity of wireless communication leads to the proliferation of many air interface standards such as the IEEE 802 families and the 3G families. This evolution of standardization continues in an accelerated manner. Most existing techniques for reconfigurable processors focus on the computation model. This paper focuses on increasing the...
