Applying machine learning to find the properties of atomic pieces of geometry shows how AI has the power to accelerate discoveries in maths. Applying machine learning to find the properties of atomic ...

In a world composed of so many squares, the designer and technologist Jonathan Bobrow is making the case for triangles. He’s created paper building blocks based on equilateral triangles that enable ...

By building computer models, researchers came up with six 2D configurations that seemed likely to work as self-folding 3D structures. They then tested the shapes with colleagues from Johns Hopkins ...

Researchers have figured out how to train synthetic polymer molecules to behave -- to literally "self-assemble" -- and form into long, multicompartment cylinders 1,000 times thinner than a human hair, ...

Bilo is a building block set that lets kids build models digitally through real blocks in front of them. Original image has been replaced. Credit: Mashable The blocks have micro controllers in them, ...
