More-powerful controllers and better software lead to broader applications for magnetic bearings. Magnetic-bearings, which support shafts with magnetic levitation rather than mechanical contact, have ...

Soft robots are only as capable as the artificial muscles that drive them, and for years those muscles have forced a trade-off between strength and flexibility. A new magnetic polymer design is ...

The Arduino magnetic drawing machine operates using an Arduino board mounted with a magnetometer. This setup, combined with node.js and socket.io, allows the machine to detect disturbances in the ...

More and more people are waking up to the fact that they need to stay fit to live long. This opens up a market for fitness equipment like a treadmill or a home rowing machine. However, only some ...

Magnetic structure of a material. The colored spheres represent atoms and the arrows stand for their magnetic moments. The curved surface illustrates how the atoms assume the most energetically ...
