The thrust-producing mechanism of the robot’s leg is an actuated prismatic joint, called a linear elastic actuator in parallel (LEAP).

First Tetherless Hopping Robot

This could be the first one-legged hopper that does not require a connection to an external motor or power source.

The compiler processes high-level primitives into low-level instructions for production on industrial knitting machines.

Industrial Knitting Machines Make 3D Shapes

This would give them the same flexibility to control the complex machine's output that's common for 3D printers.

This tag-less method of radio frequency identification leverages previous work showing that it is possible to classify objects by type (i.e. phone vs. TV vs. kitchen appliance, etc).

EM Signals Used to Identify Devices

Radio frequency emission are considered incidental noise, but now Disney Research has found a way to use these signals for device identification.
