Previous investigations of the neural code for complex object shape have focused on two-dimensional pattern representation. This may be the primary mode for object vision given its simplicity and ...

3D printing is super cool, but it's also super slow -- it would take 115 days to print a detailed, multimaterial object about the size of a grapefruit. A new method allows printing with up to 8 ...

In the world of database architecture, the need to dynamically create complex objects conflicts with the demand for subsecond response time. Oracle's answer to this dilemma is the materialized view.

Taking advantage of molecules that switch states when exposed to particular wavelengths of light, researchers have developed a 3-D printing method that can make precise objects in a matter of minutes.

Researchers have set a new world record: they 3D printed complex objects with higher cellulose content than that of any other additively manufactured cellulose-based parts. To achieve this, they used ...

Imaging buried objects Left: artistic impression of metal spheres buried in small glass beads; centre: conventional ultrasound image; right: the new technology can precisely determine the positions of ...

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon's Future Interfaces Group have come up with a novel way of letting VR users "feel" virtual surfaces, with the use of a puppet-style glove that can stop your fingers in ...

Hackers frequently find themselves reverse-engineering or interfacing to existing hardware and devices, and when that interface needs to be a physical one, it really pays to be able to take accurate ...

You say that the human brain is the most complex object in the known universe (Leader, 22 June). But it is part of the human body, which is an object, and so must be the most complex. But humans are ...
