By developing new microfabrication techniques, scientists at DARPA have integrated all the components of an optical phased array into a miniature 2-D chip configuration, which…
Future combat medics could save the lives of soldiers, preventing them from bleeding out on battlefields, by injecting medical foam into their bodies. The scientists…
At the Supercomputing 2012 conference last week, IBM Research-Almaden presented its next milestone towards fulfilling DARPA’s cognitive computing program, Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable…
The DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) has begun and over the next two years teams will compete to develop and test hardware and software designed to…
If the Arctic continues to melt, there could be more military and commercial activity in this environment. DARPA is working on an all-seeing network of…
Launched in 2008 to improve the ability to detect threats from standoff distances, DARPA’s CT2WS program uses human brainwaves, improved sensors, and cognitive algorithms to…
Typically, robotic hands have had trouble being dexterous enough and delicate enough to perform certain tasks, but robotics experts from Harvard University have been developing…
Developed for DARPA, Boston Dynamics’ Cheetah robot broke a new speed record recently, and it’s capable of running at 28.3 mph, on a treadmill. That’s…
It’s a biological imperative how organisms respond to threats, and humans are no exception. Humans respond to threats, perceived or real, in an instinctual way,…
Researchers at Harvard University have developed a soft, walking robot for DARPA, which has the uncanny ability to camouflage itself within its environment. This system…
DARPA granted a contract for Phases 2-4 of its Anti-Submarine Warfare Continuous Trail Unmanned Vessel program and expects operational prototype at-sea testing to begin in…
Scientists at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency have created the world’s first solid state receiver to demonstrate gain at 0.85 terahertz (THz). In the…
Engineers at the Wyss Institute are working on a smart suit that helps improve physical endurance for soldiers in the field, delaying the onset of…
Working on innovative approaches to firefighting, DARPA has been exploring technologies to manipulate and extinguish flames using physics. They were able to suppress fire using…
DARPA’s newest “Cheetah” robot set a new land speed record for legged robots when it galloped at speeds of 18 miles per hour, besting the…
These new prototype robots, which were molded from paper and silicone rubber, can twist, bend, grip, and lift more than 100 times their own weight….
To help carry gear, DARPA is continuing research into developing a highly mobile, semi-autonomous legged robot to integrate with a squad of Marines or Soldiers….
