When it comes to soft, assistive devices -- like the exosuit being designed by the Harvard Biodesign Lab -- the wearer and the robot need to be in sync. But every human moves a bit differently and tailoring the...
Professor Kyung Cheol Choi from the School of Electrical Engineering and his team succeeded in fabricating highly efficient Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) on an ultra-thin fiber.
The team expects the technology, which produces high-efficiency, long-lasting OLEDs, can be widely utilized...

“There’s a close correspondence between what you need for communication in rapidly changing networks and information processing in the brain,” professor Nancy Lynch says. “We’re trying to find problems that can benefit from this distributed-computing perspective, focusing on algorithms...
Accurately measuring electric fields is important in a variety of applications, such as weather forecasting, process control on industrial machinery, or ensuring the safety of people working on high-voltage power lines. Yet from a technological perspective, this is no...

Picture a tablet that you can fold into the size of a phone and put away in your pocket, or an artificial skin that can sense your body's...
3-D printing has come a long way since the first "rapid prototyping" patent was rejected in 1980. We've evolved from basic designs to a wide range of highly-customizable objects. Still, there's a big issue: once objects are printed, they're...
