Abstract: Millimeter-scale mechanisms, from novel actuators and sensors to insect-inspired flying vehicles, have applications in medical devices, infrastructure inspection, small satellites, and more.

A highly sensitive diamond quantum magnetometer utilizing nitrogen-vacancy centers can achieve millimeter-scale resolution magnetoencephalography (MEG). The novel magnetometer, based on ...

Using more than 1.4 petabytes of electron microscopy (EM) imaging data, researchers have generated a nanoscale-resolution reconstruction of a millimeter-scale fragment of human cerebral cortex, ...

Miniature robots on the millimeter scale often lack the strength to transport instruments for endoscopic microsurgery through the body. Scientists are now combining several millimeter-sized TrainBots ...

“Building robots that operate independently at sizes below one millimeter is incredibly difficult,” it is exceedingly hard to create robots that function on their own and which are less than one ...

High-speed device triggering footage. Shot on a Phantom v1612 (FPS = 8000, aperture time = 120 µs, Extreme Dynamic Range (EDR) = 60 µs). Inspired by the diverse attachment organs of parasites, ...

Will support carbon neutrality by helping to eliminate the need for external pumps in cooling systems Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that it hasdeveloped the world’s ...
