(1:05) - NASA Grant To Enable Explorations Of Concrete Behavior In Moon-Like Gravity : Colonizing Mars and setting up a base on the lunar surface for deep space exploration has been a hot topic for a while, but there is still a major unanswered question: how are we going to build structures in space? Concrete seems to be a pretty solid answer. Unfortunately, the microgravity conditions in space pose a challenge for concrete cures which can result in mechanical defects in the end product; however, Professor Yamamoto at Penn State has recently received a grant to study these defects and investigate methods to avoid them which means concrete villas on Mars might not be a far fetched reality in the near future.

(1:04) - Facial Recognition AI Helps Save Multibillion Dollar Grape Crop : Powdery mildew causes multi-billion dollar losses of grape crops on a yearly basis so it is no surprise that researchers like Professor Lance Cadle-Davidson from Cornell University are working on developing more fungus resistant varieties. The process of analyzing grape leaf samples is quite cumbersome and would’ve required 6 months of manual labor had engineer and computer scientists - Professor Yu Jiang - not stepped in. Professor Jiang was able to reduce the analysis timeframe down to just 1 day by developing a robot powered by a modified facial recognition artificial intelligence model and equipped with an optical microscope. (7:50) - Metallic Glass Gears Up For 'Cobots,' Coatings, And More : Robots are composed of many mechanical components, the most important of which are the gears. NASA has leveraged the benefits of robotics in many missions (Mars rovers being the most famous) but the harsh atmospheric conditions have proven to be problematic for operation since the necessary lubricant for the gears has to be constantly heated up before conducting any task. NASA JPL recruited the help of Douglas Hoffman to address this problem and through his work they were able to develop bulk metallic glass gears which possess the hardness of crystals, maintain the favorable mechanical properties of metals, can be injection molded for mass manufacturing, and do not require lubrication. This breakthrough is a substantial move in the right direction concerning affordable robotics since gears account for ~50% of the price in robotic applications.

(0:45) - Modeling How Climate Change Impacts Forest Fires : Wildfires have been wreaking havoc on the nation’s forests and it is now more important than ever to understand how our changing climate is impacting our most treasured ecosystems. Computer simulations can provide great insight but when considering the number of variables that contribute to forest fires it becomes clear that traditional approaches would be too computationally intensive to be feasible. That’s where the researchers at the Technical University of Munich come in: they’ve built a neural network capable of recognizing patterns between the key parameters that result in forest fires which uses only a fraction of the computational power required via the traditional approach. (6:35) - Getting Dressed With Help From Robots : Do you find yourself thinking “I wish a robot could do this” when dressing yourself in the morning? Well, soon you might be able to get one of those exact robots in your own home! MIT researchers have been developing a robot to assist people when getting dressed and although they’ve made some impressive progress, there are some bumps they’ve hit on their path all centered around one object: people. People’s varying preferences regarding getting clothed and safety in general has caused their algorithm to become overwhelmed.

29. Detecting Cancer In Pee, Robotic Neck Brace, Quieter Airplanes 21:14

(0:55) - Using Nanoparticles To Detect Cancer In Pee : A team of MIT engineers have come up with a way to detect the presence of cancer and localize the region of origin by analyzing a patient’s pee sample. The patient can either inhale or be injected with nanoparticles that’ll exit the body via urine and a paper test - similar to over the counter pregnancy tests - can be used to determine if the patient has cancer. Additionally, if the patient does test positive, the nanoparticles can be coated with a radioactive tracer to show medical professionals the source of the growth via PET scans. (8:20) - Robotic Neck Brace : Head and neck cancer is the 7th most common type of cancer in the world and doctors typically surgically remove a patient's lymph nodes to examine how the cancer will spread; however, this approach results in severe neck and shoulder pain. This type of pain is difficult to characterize because current methods are either too timely to set up or they’re simply inaccurate but that is exactly what a group of Columbia researchers hoped to address. Two professors have teamed up to create a robotic neck brace capable of recording a patient’s full range of head/neck motion. The duo have proven that by recording data before and after the surgery will allow medical professionals to understand what areas have been affected and what specific types of physical therapy to prescribe. (13:55) - Quiet Landing Airplanes : If you live near an airport (like us) then you know how disturbing the sound of planes taking off and landing can be. Fortunately, a team of engineers at Texas A&M University have proposed a design modification to the slats on aircraft wings that could reduce the noise generated upon landing to that of the quietest planes. Their simulations have been promising so now they will be working on creating a scale model to test out and hopefully it works so The Next Byte crew can have an easier time living near the airport. -- About the podcast: Every day, some of the most innovative universities, companies, and individual technology developers share their knowledge on Wevolver.

(0:47) - AI Struggles To Police Social Media : In the last 3 months of 2020, Facebook’s AI for detecting hate speech, toxicity, and misinformation removed 27 million posts. Automated moderation is the only viable solution for all the major social media platforms but it makes you wonder: how accurate is it really? Stanford researchers have decided to take a look at the reported 95% effectiveness of a traditional content policing AI and their work shows that the number is significantly reduced once the model is trained on a data set that integrates consensus of people on what constitutes as hate speech. (10:30) - Marsquakes Shed Light On The Red Planet’s Origins : We recently talked about how Venusquakes can give us valuable insight on the inner workings of the planet and now there is a new article coming out of ETH Zurich and U Zurich where the same is being done with Mars. The Martian inSight lander has been recording seismic activity from the red planet over the past 2 years and analysis of Marsquakes from the opposite side of where the lander is stationed has taught us a few things: a) the core is molten with a 1,840 km radius, b) it is structured similarly to earth (core, mantel, crust), and c) unlike planet earth the crust is a single solid piece 20 km thick. (17:30) - Preventing Lead Leakage From Solar Cells : Perovskite solar cells are leading the industry with 25% solar energy to electricity conversion efficiency; however, the water soluble lead that enables their high performance is a point of concern for environmentalists. Professor Laszlo Forro from the EPFL School of Basic Sciences recently published a study that outlines how to prevent this lead leakage by integrating phosphate salts that can bind with lead to create a recyclable, water insoluble compound without compromising the cell’s efficiency.

(0:49) - Nanostructured Shields : MIT, CalTech, and ETH Zurich researchers have developed a new lightweight material capable of providing more stopping power than kevlar on a per mass basis. Furthermore, they were able to use the Buckingham-pi theorem - an analytical method used to measure how much material a meteor can excavate from a planet - to create a framework for assessing the impact absorption effectiveness of new nanostructured materials. (10:55) - Balloon Detection of Venus Earthquakes : Much of what we know about the inner workings of planet earth comes from our analysis of seismic activity but it's not that easy to do the same on other planets with inhospitable surface conditions like Venus. So how can we work around this problem? According to NASA JPL and some students from CalTech, balloons are the answer! The team was able to prove that weather balloons with barometers (instruments that gauge pressure differences) could detect earthquakes miles away. (16:00) - Increasing OLED Efficiency : OLED screens are becoming the standard for phones, TVs, and monitors; however, about 80% of the light produced by these screens actually ends up trapped inside the devices leading to drastic decreases in overall efficiency. Researchers from University of Michigan have found a way to liberate ~20% of the trapped light by making some modifications to the electrodes on either side of the light emitters and using an index-matching fluid to prevent light getting trapped by the outer glass layer.
