It's a question I'm sure was keeping you up at night: can you make an object spin with a sound wave? The answer, generally speaking, used to be no. Now, though, mechanical engineers have taken a look ...

In the context of sensory modalities, eyes work like tiny antennae, picking up light, electromagnetic waves traveling at ...

Scientists at Japan’s Nagoya University have used Japan’s extensive network of GNSS receivers to create the first 3D images of atmospheric disturbances caused by the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake.

Creating an affordable acoustic camera is now achievable with the right blend of accessible technology and open-source software. By using smartphones and budget-friendly equipment, you can replicate ...

Video cameras continue to gain widespread use, but there are privacy and environmental limitations in how well they work. Acoustical waves are an alternative medium that may bypass those limitations.

Researchers at ETH Zurich develop smart textiles that use acoustic waves instead of electronics to measure touch, pressure and movement precisely. SonoTextiles work with glass microfibres that conduct ...
