One day, a plane could give you flying lessons
Vehicles make more decisions for people than we might realize – and they have been for a while. Just nine years after the Wright brothers successfully flew the first plane in 1903, autopilot was invented. Cruise control ...

Teams of mobile 3-D printing robots could fix bridges on Earth and build them to Mars
Commercial 3-D printing—or additive manufacturing (AM)—is a booming industry. But if printers were liberated from the typical setup involving an immobile box and a gantry, and set free to work in roving, collaborative ...

Teaching machines to reason about what they see
A child who has never seen a pink elephant can still describe one—unlike a computer. "The computer learns from data," says Jiajun Wu, a Ph.D. student at MIT. "The ability to generalize and recognize something you've never ...
