MIT engineers have achieved it once more – this time creating an autonomous glider drone that may survey lots of of miles of ocean floor all whereas being powered naturally by the wind. Created to imitate the albatross, the drone can dip a keel into the water in calm winds …

Perfecting autonomous flight isn’t any imply feat. Even the only, most blatant obstacles generally is a problem to navigate. The lead to pc science labs growing autonomous techniques is commonly common breaks the place costly drone parts want to be put again collectively once more. Researchers at MIT have developed …

The state of Massachusetts held State House Innovation Day yesterday – and the drone trade was current and accounted for. The Massachusetts TechHUB Caucus hosted its third marquee Innovation Day , an occasion which introduced 200-plus attendees to the State House to debate “Megatrends and the Future of Tech in …

  Image: Christine Daniloff/MIT MIT researchers are working to create miniature brains for miniature drones – designing a pc chip particularly for the aim. “Standard computer chips for quadcoptors and other similarly sized drones process an enormous amount of streaming data from cameras and sensors, and interpret that data on …

Photo: Sally Chapman/MIT Researchers at MIT have developed a gasoline powered drone with a 5 day flight time.  The glider-like drone is designed to hold a communications payload that might set up a non permanent telecommunications community for catastrophe reduction. The thought of utilizing drones to ascertain non permanent networks …

Predictive computer simulations are supposed to be the stuff of Hollywood movies. The kind that show you what will happen to the Earthbound asteroid if Bruce Willis fires the nukes at a certain angle. Or the one that predicts which cities are at risk when Bruce Willis gets his angles …
